Siobhan Fenella Guerrero Mc Manus (birth. 1981)[1] is a Mexican philosopher and humanist known for defending the right to gender identity in minors.[2]
She studied a bachelor's degree in Biology at the Faculty of Sciences, her master’s and Ph.D. in Philosophy of Science at the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters and the Institute for Philosophical Research of the National Autonomous University of Mexico, earning both degrees with honors.[3] She is currently a Level II member of the National System of Researchers and works as a full-time tenured Researcher A at the Center for Interdisciplinary Research in Sciences and Humanities. She is also a co-founder of the National Laboratory for Diversities, part of the Honorary Advisory Council of the Metropolitan Autonomous University general Rectorate, a member of the editorial board of the journal Debate Feminista, and part of the General Assembly of the Simone de Beauvoir Leadership Institute.[1]
Her undergraduate thesis topics focused on botany and evolutionary biology, comparing a phylogeny obtained through a maximum parsimony algorithm with another generated by a phenetic algorithm. In her master’s thesis, she continued with evolutionary biology, reflecting on how epistemological access to historical relationships between species and other supra-specific taxa is achieved. This line of analysis continued in her doctoral dissertation, focusing on the categories of homosexuality and exploring the relationship between biological mechanisms, subjectivity, and power.[3]
Her areas of interest include feminism and philosophy, feminist epistemology, science and gender, history of homosexuality, and philosophy of biology.[4]
