| Summary: | Contemporary man confronts a dilemma. In search of his or her own identity and a model of life in human community, an individual can choose between two attitudes which exclude each other. The first one is shaped by the Catholic Social Teaching and is based on a foundation of Christian anthropology. It leads to self-identification within the framework of a double model of the human being: man and woman. Consequently, someone identified with his or her biological sex tends toward self-fulfillment in the traditional social and cultural role. The second attitude is based on the postmodern deconstruction of the category of sex. It leads to a blurred vision of one’s own sexual identity, denial of opposition and complementarity of man and woman and rejection of traditional criteria of choosing one’s way of life. This paper presents the arguments of these two attitudes and the probable consequences of choices made within the framework of both options discussed. L’homme contemporain se trouve face à un dilemme important. En cherchant sa propre identité et son modèle de vie dans la communauté humaine, il peut choisir une des deux attitudes qui sont en principe contradictoires. La première, formée par Catholic Social Teaching et établie sur le fondement de l’anthropologie chrétienne, conduit non seulement à l’auto-identification dans le cadre d’un modèle ayant deux valeurs et concernant l’être humain comme un homme ou une femme, mais aussi à l’autoréalisation dans le cadre d’un des rôles traditionnels sociaux et culturels, propres à un genre biologique déterminé. La seconde s’appuie sur l’idée de la déconstruction postmoderne de la catégorie de sexe, ce qui conduit en effet à la dilution de l’identité sexuelle et à la négation des critères qui étaient élaborés durant des siècles et qui concernent le choix de son propre chemin de vie prenant en considération l’opposition et la complémentarité d’un homme et d’une femme. L’article juxtapose les arguments en faveur de la première et de la seconde option ; en plus, il examine les conséquences probables des choix individuels faits dans le cadre de cette alternative. L’uomo contemporaneo si trova di fronte a un grande dilemma. Nella ricerca di una propria identità e di un modello di vita all’interno della comunità umana, egli ha una scelta tra due atteggiamenti fondamentalmente inconciliabili fra loro. Il primo, formato da Catholic Social Teaching e basato sui fondamenti dell’antropologia cristiana, porta all’auto-identificarsi nell’ambito di un modello umano bivalente come uomo o donna e all’auto-realizzarsi in uno dei tradizionali ruoli sociali e culturali appropriati per un determinato sesso biologico. Il secondo si basa sull’idea postmoderna di decostruzione della categoria “sex”, che di conseguenza porta alla disgregazione della propria identità sessuale e alla negazione dei criteri di scelta, elaborati nel tempo, del proprio stile di vita, tenendo conto dell’opposizione e della complementarità tra uomo e donna. L’articolo mette a confronto gli argomenti a favore della prima e della seconda opzione e analizza le probabili conseguenze delle scelte individuali di tale alternativa. |
