Otto Weininger

Otto Weininger

philosopher Austria

Otto Weininger was an Austrian philosopher, writer, and sociologist best known for his controversial work 'Sex and Character,' published in 1903. Born in 1880 in Vienna, Weininger explored themes of gender, sexuality, and identity, positing a dualistic view of human nature that distinguished between masculine and feminine qualities. His ideas, while groundbreaking in their time, were also criticized for their misogynistic undertones. Tragically, Weininger's life ended at a young age in 1903, and his legacy remains a topic of debate in the realms of philosophy and gender studies.
