Japanese feminist philosophy has in the last 15 years focused on the theme of' sexual slavery', especially on the issue of 'comfort women'. The issue of 'comfort women' was not only a highly charged social and political issue, but also the turning point in conceptualizing the category of 'the other' from the viewpoint of East Asian feminist philosophy. It enabled Asian women philosophers to rethink the feminine solidarity and also to create a new forum for a transnational feminist philosophy in East Asia. For this purpose of feminist philosophy in networking, a group of East Asian women philosopher is working together on the task of Asian philosophy of gender as well as on a new line in the philosophy of 'the other'.In my paper, I would like to describe the conceptual framework of this feminist philosophy in networking and want to try to redefine the concept of gender from East Asian feminist philosophy
