Summary/Abstract: The effort to answer the question - why, after the strong initial development of feminist philosophy/philosophy of gender, the problems addressed by theorists in these fields remain only a matter of discussion within smaller philosophical circles - remains open. Although part of the reason for this situation can inevitably be seen in the light of unattainable gender equality in society, which is reflected in the status of women in academia and science, the main purpose of this text is to focus on the theory within which indelible traces of patriarchal patterns and misogynistic approaches complicate and limit debates aimed at re-examining key philosophical concepts, systems, and methodologies.
