The article reflects on the concept of gender parity from a critical perspective, taking as reference the normative and conceptual differences of the sex and gender categories as analytical legal categories. It advocates the reinforcement of sex as a central constitutional category for the equality of women and men, and as a democratic requirement that implies the recognition of human mixedness and the socio / sexual subordination of women. It advocates breaking with the corporeal and socio-sexual abstraction of the normative model of the human in order to ensure that sex is not legally irrelevant and argues for the requirement of constitutional parity without further qualifications.
