Summary/Abstract: The aim of this paper is to investigate the axiology related to the IN(TO)-OUTorientation. Following the assumptions developed by Krzeszowski [1994, 1997],the type of values ascribed to these orientations may vary within a specific context.In order to verify whether and how often the IN(TO) and the OUT orientations arein fact positively or negatively loaded and to what extent their axiologies are (in)stable,some linguistic elaborations of the sex-related orientational metaphors in Spanish andPolish are analyzed. The study is based on the premises of the Fundamental AxiologicalMatrix conception [Krzeszowski 1997].
