摘要：

This article considers the relationship between the principle of equality between men and women and the power of constitutional reform. It starts from the 'original sin' of the modern constitutional state which, despite its pretensions of equality and universality, excluded women from being citizens. The analysis moves to the current Spanish Constitution, bringing a gender perspective to a review of women's participation during the 1977 'Constituent Assemblies' as well as the main questions that, according to legal scholarship, should be addressed in a hypothetical reform of our constitution. Finally, it examines the extent to which the principle of equality, currently enshrined in the democratic principle, is construed as a possible limit to constitutional reform.
