I am convinced that leaving back the essentialist binarization man/woman is essential in history. It is a question of moving from polarization to the examination of shared (or not) paths, in a deeply relational perspective. In history I refuse to proceed in watertight compartments: human realities are ontologically systemic and the historian must be able to grasp the complexity of every system
