<![CDATA[This article examines the female body within a feminist framework that operates at the intersection of religion and social space through a reading of Dorothea Rosa Herliany’s poem Perempuan Berdosa.

Images of being hunted, pressed down, and judged reveal how religious and social norms often position women as the source of moral wrongdoing. Feminist analysis challenges these patterns by asserting that women possess voices and lived experiences that cannot be reduced to moral stigma.
