<![CDATA[The Kenduri Blang tradition is a post-rice harvest thanksgiving tradition that is still carried out and preserved by farmers in Aceh to this day. Gender inequality in the Kenduri Blang tradition still often occurs in the lives of the people of Matang Rawa village, Baktiya sub-district, North Aceh district. Women still do not get gender justice in the process of implementing the Kenduri Blang event, considering that the existence of women in the agricultural sector is very important for the sustainability of rice farming in a village. This thesis aims to explain the factors and motivations of women who dare to attend the Kenduri Blang event and how the forms of resistance of village women against patriarchal domination in the Kenduri Blang tradition. The method used in this study is qualitative methodology (Phenomenology), this study uses the theory of Phenomenological Existentialism as an analytical tool, and the data collection techniques used are field observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The results of the study show that the factors that encourage women's courage to attend the Kenduri Blang event are based on the loss factor (feeling disadvantaged), the equality factor, and the strong motivation factor. There are also inhibiting factors, namely religious factors, cultural factors, and discrimination factors experienced by village women. Meanwhile, the form of resistance of village women is to fight openly by coming directly to the event venue, protesting, debating and criticizing men]]>
