Abstract

AbstractFemale figures in the WDP films are mostly portrayed visually as women who live and are in the order of patriarchal society. The image of women and their relationship with social interaction in the WDP films are reviewed using visual methodology related to visual culture as a form of concern for how images, in this case, scene images, in the WDP films in the past and present context, can visualize social differences. The findings obtained through this study are the link between the periodization of Walt Disney Studios development with the production and the context of the films. The films, Frozen and Maleficent, as primary objects of this research are studied in order to answer the problem of social interaction between men and women and what discourse is built through the realtionship of social interaction. It was concluded that the relationship of social interaction displayed in the films Frozen and Maleficent was the interaction between women and women as a form of social relations that can be constructed. This also shows that social construction is dynamic because it can experience change over time, which in this research, is shown by the periodization of Walt Disney Studios development and its relationship with the context in the films. The character of the socially constructed superordinate and subordinate nature is proven to be interchangeable through visual culture. Therefore, based on these findings, it can be said that the discourse of these two films is the effort of women to free themselves from the oprression of male power despite the life of the patriarchal society. Key Words: Film, image, women, superordinate-subordinate, social interactions

Abstract

ABSTRAKMaskulinitas dan feminitas adalah dua karakter yang terus-menerus disalahpahami sebagai sesuatu yang alami, yaitu "maskulin untuk laki-laki" dan "feminin untuk perempuan". Konsep seks dan gender harus dibedakan karena pemahaman seperti itu menghasilkan pembenaran dari dua karakter yang dibangun sebagai normativitas yang berlaku di masyarakat. Film anak-anak, dalam hal ini, memainkan peran penting dalam membangun pemahaman tentang maskulinitas-feminitas sebagai "atribut personal" laki-laki dan perempuan, tetapi dalam konteks kekinian hanya perempuan yang menerima justifikasi untuk "memiliki" keanekaragaman karakter maskulin dan feminin, sementara  tidak demikian halnya bagi laki-laki. Hal ini menimbulkan masalah yang menyoroti bagaimana justifikasi keragaman karakter pada perempuan dapat dibentuk sebagai normativitas melalui film anak-anak. Analisis secara spesifik dilakukan pada dua tokoh sentral yang ditampilkan dalam serial televisi anak-anak Nella the Princess Knight dan Sofia the First dengan menggunakan perspektif cultural studies. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa media TV, melalui tayangan-tayangannya, turut berpartisipasi dalam memberikan pembenaran pembentukan karakter pada perempuan yang secara otomatis mengarah pada pembentukan karakter pada laki-laki. Pembenaran semacam itu disebabkan oleh hegemoni maskulinitas dan budaya patriarki yang memunculkan androsentrisme. Melalui praktik androsentris, pria menjadi pusat kontrol dalam mengevaluasi perempuan sesuai dengan pandangan mereka, sementara hegemoni maskulinitas memastikan maskulinisasi progresif anak laki-laki, sehingga tidak ada pembenaran bagi laki-laki untuk bertukar karakter  menjadi feminin. Penelitian ini juga menunjukkan bahwa  dominasi patriarki sebagai sistem struktur sosial yang berperan dalam arena pendidikan dan media masih merupakan aspek dominan dalam membentuk pemahaman maskulinitas-feminitas yang menjadi normativitas di masyarakat. Kata kunci: Maskulinitas-feminitas, karakter, justifikasi, normativitas
