Abstract

This study discusses the culture of bride kidnapping in the novel Perempuan yang Menangis kepada Bulan Hitam by Dian Purnomo using Kate Millett’s radical feminism approach. The study aims to describe the culture of bride kidnapping viewed from the aspects of gender inequality and patriarchy. The method used in this study is descriptive analytical, with data collection techniques through reading and note-taking of quotations in the novel. The results show that the culture of bride kidnapping causes various forms of gender injustice, such as abduction, forced marriage, sexual violence, subordination, and psychological pressure against women. In addition, the culture also reflects a strong patriarchal system that places men as the dominant party in social and traditional life. Based on Kate Millett’s radical feminist theory, bride kidnapping culture is a form of patriarchal domination that limits women’s freedom and rights.
