Is it possible to imagine a society without gender and sexual difference? This article searches for answers in the context of the late-1960s United States and France and, specifically, in the writings of two radical feminists in the incipient Women’s Libe-
ration Movement: Shulamith Firestone and Monique Wittig. Both produced works through which this (im) possible society can be imagined: Les Guérillères, published by Wittig in 1969, and The Dialectic of Sex, by Firestone, in 1970. Their legacy is important to the understanding of many of the debates between modern-day feminisms, around the complexity of the categories of identity or the subject of feminism itself.
