Can you name any philosophers or philosophies that seem particularly MALE centered. If so , then which ones AND if not then why not?

Answer 1

The majority of philosophers and philosophies are male-centered. A classic example is Aristotle and his philosophies. It never would have crossed his mind that his ideas would apply to women in any context, since, according to him, women were more akin to deformed men than fully fledged human beings in their own rights.

Moreover, many feminist philosophers would argue that because women have been largely excluded from academia until very recently in modern human history, any philosophical question/investigation is, almost by definition male-centered. Men have been the people who decide what is worthy of philosophical investigation throughout the majority of human history, and most feminism would argue that that one fact creates a male-centered pursuit of knowledge.
