Elisabeth Roudinesco: the scandal caused in France by the release of the book "Le deuxième sexe"

The historian and psychoanalyst Elisabeth ROUDINESCO evokes the scandal caused by the release of Simone de Beauvoir’s book "Le Deuxième sexe", published in 1949. She explains that the central thesis of this essay "One is not born a woman, one becomes one" is false but was necessary to challenge the idea that women were by nature destined to stay at home, to be wives and mothers. According to Elisabeth ROUDINESCO it is not the society that makes one become man or woman, there is a difference of the sexes, anatomical.
