Abstract
An alleged natural incompatibility of women with knowledge has been affirmed in the course of Western tradition. This paper discusses the relationship of women to the exercise of thinking by focusing on three aspects: 1) women as subjects of philosophical discourse; 2) women as objects of philosophical discourse; 3) women as readers of philosophy. Special attention will be given to the third aspect, as the article points out possible theoretical and practical implications of a critical re-reading of ethics from the point of view of gender. Key words: androcentrism, abstract universalism, critique, sexist ideology.
