<![CDATA[The phenomenon of gamophobia in Indonesia reflects a fear of marriage within a permissive society, influenced by uncertainties in gender roles, social pressures, and shifts in traditional values. This issue generates identity conflicts and hinders social harmony in the context of gender and marriage. The purpose of this study is to examine gamophobia as a social pathology within a permissive marriage culture. In this context, "permissive" refers to the tendency to legitimize actions based on individual rights and personal freedom. The study explores various causes of gamophobia, emphasizing that marriage should neither be feared nor excessively debated within the framework of gender dynamics. Using a literature review approach, this article investigates gamophobia in permissive societies, analyzing its complexities through gender and social norms perspectives. The findings indicate that gamophobia, or the fear of committed relationships, is influenced by psychological, gender, social, and cultural factors. A comprehensive approach involving government, education, civil society, and individuals is necessary. The concept of pre-family resilience helps prepare individuals for healthy relationships, while collaboration and supportive environments enhance readiness to build strong, lasting marriages, contributing to healthier communities. This study contributes by demonstrating that gamophobia is a multifaceted issue shaped by psychological, gender, social, and cultural factors. It emphasizes the importance of pre-family resilience and collaboration among government, education, civil society, and individuals to prepare for committed relationships, strengthening family and community dynamics.]]>
