This essay examines the degree to which voices of moral development are gendered. It highlights Kohlberg's social cognitive theory and the challenges that Gilligan has made towards this universal theory. It examines the criticisms of Gilligan, including Sayers (1986) and MacDonald's (1988) sociobiological approach. It also explores available empirical evidence in order to conclude that it would be best to suggest that there is a masculine and feminine voice, rather than a male and female voice of moral development.
KEYWORDS: gilligan, claim, women, distinctive, moral, voice, justified,
