There have been many great female scientists, novelists, artists, etc. But which female philosophers should replace Plato, Aristotle, Erasmus, Descartes, Hobbes, Locke, Hume, Kant, Mill, Nietzsche, Habermas, or Singer? Serious suggestions welcome.https://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/2018/03/14/oxford-university-set-feminise-curriculum-requesting-inclusion/ …

There really is no one at that level. The female philosopher who I enjoyed the most was Irigaray, but even she is derivative of Levinas. Not to mention, gender quotas for this sort of thing are fairly abhorrent. Schools are self-segregating based on "progressive" agenda or not.

Luce Irigaray is great fun to read when one is 19 and impressionable, but she makes no effing sense, really.
