Abstract

The Asturian Philosophy Society (APhS) organized in Oviedo on September 29 and 30 and October 1, 2022, its VII Congress on Contemporary Philosophical Thought with the title: Gender Issue? Philosophy, Women, Feminisms. Faced with the hegemony of androcentrism, we were interested in analyzing what women's gaze is like and what it brings to the world and to thought, above all, to gauge its transformative potential. We know that this look and this interest are not exclusively philosophical, since they take place in very varied fields, but we also understand that philosophy has a lot to contribute to feminist thought and gender issues. That is why we proposed this congress as a space for meeting and discussion from heterogeneous positions and disciplines of study. We also know that there is not a single type of feminism, but within its claims there is room for discussion and for plurality, beginning with the definition of women, sex, gender.
