Summary/Abstract: The text is an example of a feminist reflection on the created culture and femininity implicated in the paradoxical nature. According to the author, it is the place of various "possible worlds" in which the entire history of femininity is joint initiatives and mutual inspirations, social intuitions, civil initiations and an extraordinary sphere of integration. The article, whose pretext was Dekowska’s liberature, refers to the content of the most important problems, fragments of culture of women, which the author recognizes as a kind of "women's pentateuch."
