<![CDATA[Digital transformation in the transportation sector provides new opportunities for women to work as online ojek drivers. However, their presence in public space exposes their vulnerability to misogynistic practices rooted in patriarchal culture. This study aims to examine the forms of misogynistic practices experienced by female online ojek drivers, as well as understand their strategies in dealing with the situation through the perspective of radical feminism. Using descriptive qualitative method, data was collected through in-depth interviews with female online ojek drivers in East Jakarta. The results showed that they often experience verbal and non-verbal harassment, gender stereotyping, and symbolic marginalization in public spaces.
