Summary/Abstract: The text is a review of the collective work Medical, bioethical, psychosociological and legal aspects of gender identity edited by Władysław Sinkiewicz and Rafał Grabowski. Authors of articles put the concept of "gender" at the heart of their considerations, and it becomes the basis of disputes, inquiries and questions. The overwhelming advantage of the work done by the editors is the fact that people presenting various areas of research were invited to cooperate – doctors, sociologists, a psychologist or a lawyer. Unfortunately, the authors often present private views of the world, approaches to cultural or moral matters, which are not supported by the results of research. This approach to gender studies makes at least some of the articles ideologically manipulative and take the form of a socio-political manifesto.
