Summary

Do men and women differ only in regards to the body? Or, can we speak of there being a "female" soul and a "male" soul? How do we explain the different ways that men and women relate to their bodies? In this podcast, Marc Barnes and D. C. Schindler discuss the different ways of explaining sexual difference. Specifically, they discuss Schindler's recent article in New Polity Issue 7.1/2, and a possible way to metaphysically understand the body/soul problem in relation to men and women.
