When Rosa Mayreder herself, at the end of her book (p. 278), comes to the conclusion-- “In the province of the physical, about which no doubt is possible, the development towards ‘homologous monosexuality,’ towards =the unconditional sexual differentiation of individuals=, =constitutes the most desirable aim=. Every =divergence= from the normal renders the individual an imperfect being; =physical hermaphroditism is repulsive= because it represents a state of insufficiency, an inadequate and malformed structure. It appertains to the qualities of beautiful and healthy human beings that the body should be that of an entire man or an entire woman, just as it is desirable that the body should be intact in all other respects” --she has at the same time expressed a judgment regarding the value of psychical bisexuality which =must ever be a rudiment merely= in the “entire man” or the “entire woman,” and can never attain the transcendent importance, can never represent the progress towards higher altitudes, which the author, in her singular misunderstanding of the true relations, wishes to ascribe to that condition. We may admit that the bisexual character is more or less strongly developed in the individual male or female, without thereby abandoning the fundamental natural difference between man and woman, which involves not merely the physical, but also the psychical sphere. I disbelieve, therefore, in Rosa Mayreder’s “synthetic human being,” who is “subordinate alike to the conditions of the masculine and the feminine” but I do believe, as I have already stated in earlier writings, in an individualization of love, in an ennobling and deepening of the relationship between the sexes, such as is possible only to free personalities. This is easily attainable in conjunction with the retention of all bodily and mental peculiarities, as these have developed during the process of sexual differentiation between man and woman. There can be no possible doubt that psychically woman is a different creature from man. And quite rightly Mantegazza declares the opinion of Mirabeau, that the soul has no sex, but only the body, to be a great blunder.
