‎BEL EXEMPLAIRE ---- "... Nothing could match the success of Weininger's book Sex and character. Weininger purported to create a new metaphysics of sexes... His basic tenent is the fundamental bisexuality of the human being. In the first chapters of his book, he compiles all available anatomical, physiological and psychological data on the bisexuality of living beings... According to Weininger, the whole individual is present in every one of his acts, utterances, feelings, or thoughts, at every moment of his life. This provides a basis for a science of characterology... Another basic difference between the absolute male and the absolute female lies in their respective level of consciousness... Sex and Character was widely reviewed, aroused a storm of controversies, was hailed as a masterpiece and obtained fabulous success...".
