Title: The Degrees of Sexual Development: A Traditionalist Perspective Tags: #Evola #SexualPolarity #YangYin #Traditionalism #MetaphysicsOfSex Metaphysical part: The Degrees of Sexual Development When discussing the teachings of the Far East, it was noted that the state of eros arises from the interplay between the yang and yin qualities of two individuals. Eliphas Levi similarly identified this phenomenon as the interaction of the magnetic atmospheres of two people of opposite sexes. To delve deeper into this concept, we must explore the degrees of sexual development and the problem of sexual choice. Modern notions of masculinity and femininity are imprecise. Sexual development occurs across multiple degrees, as not all individuals are equally male or female. Biologically, early embryonic stages exhibit hermaphroditism or bisexuality. Orchansky demonstrated that the primitive genital gland, derived from the Wolffian body, is hermaphroditic. As sexual differentiation progresses, traits of one sex develop while those of the opposite sex remain latent or diminish. This process mirrors ontogenesis, where human development retains rudimentary traits of other species, just as sexual development retains latent traits of the opposite sex. This latent bisexuality is evident in the hormone complexes present in every individual. Sexual characteristics are categorized into primary (genital glands and reproductive organs), secondary (physical traits and anatomical differences), and tertiary (psychological and emotional dispositions). These are manifestations of sex as a formative and differentiating force. In biology, the concept of entelechy, akin to a life force, has gained acceptance. This force, which molds from within, was historically seen as the soul or "form" of the body, possessing a hyperphysical, immaterial nature. At the core of sexual development lies a differentiated entelechy, the true essence of sex, with primary, secondary, and tertiary characteristic
