Abstract
IThis work aims to establish a located reading to The Second Sex as a common feminist heritage. I have revisited the original text and many academic interpretations looking for the answers to the tensions that inhabit it. One of the recurrent dilemmas is the tension between the phenomenology of the body and the utopia of the liberty.From the De Beauvoir's viewpoint the women's body is the key of her subjection.So, she thinks that it is in their bodies that they must build the side of their liberty making their subjection a political issue. In 1949 De Beauvoir asked herself how to travel from the emancipation without falling in the lane reserved for women's destiny. She rules out the options that she name justifications: not the loving nor the mystic ROAD. It is in Fraternity that she thinks Women will find the way of Liberty. Fighting against torture, hunger, colonialism and the subjection exerted on our bodies as women. In this way she looks for experiences, she open new horizons, she works on the pursuer of the fraternal dream where all the human beings: women, human beings called women or living in a woman body, will be included.
