title: Early modern controversies about the one-sex model.
abstract: This essay traces the opposition of the Galenic notion of a homology between male and female genitalia (the "one-sex model") and identifies the French physician Andre Dulaurens as the first outspoken opponent. After Dulaurens, the German physician Johann Peter Lotichius makes the opposition to that model more clearly an argument that may be called "feminist."
