Difference feminism asserts that despite the equal moral status of men and women as persons, there are genuine differences between the sexes and those differences need not all be considered equal. Psychologist Carol Gilligan is considered the founder of difference feminism.
Reverse gender polarity began in the medieval era with the exaltation of feminine virtue by authors like Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa ( The Superior Excellence of Women Over Men) and Lucrezia Marinelli (La nobilita e I'eccellenza delle donne, 1601).
