Abstract

The existence of Male to Female (MTF) or in Indonesian word known as Waria is more popular than Female to Male (FTM). Existence of FTM or someone biologically born as woman but identified herself as man is not well-researched and well-documented. That is why this group is difficult to be identified in the public discourse. Jakarta was chosen in this research as this city represented FTM from other areas around Indonesia. This study found that someone that biologically woman is not otomatically identified herself as woman. The process of self-definition is fluid. In the process of finding the self, FTM faced violences from states, society, work-place, and family.

Abstract

Sexual violence is a crime in which the victims are usually blamed for being the cause. When it happened to a cisgender heterosexual woman, many people tend to use her appearance and her behavior to justify the victim blaming. It would even be more complicated for lesbian, bisexual women, or female-to-male transgender (LBT). When sexual violence happened to them, their sexual and/or gender identity tend to be added on the reasons to justify the perpetrators’ actions. Strangely, in contrast to that, this crime is also usually thought as the cause of their being LBT. This paper is aimed to explore this paradoxical thoughts of sexual violence against LBT, its effects on LBT’s lives, and efforts made to break through the paradox itself.

Abstract

As a signatory to the Beijing Convention, Indonesia has the responsibility to live up to certain expectations, one of these is to safe guard human rights and the right to freedom of sexuality and access to sexual health. In this article we show this is not the case. In particular, because police are allowed to conduct raids on hotels and people are too scared to be open about their sexuality. As a result of being scared, people are not able to access sexual health care. Police raids are imposing a sexual morality agenda and the media is exploiting such raids by using horrific pictures, denigrating language maintaining stigmatization. If Indonesia is to get serious about HIV prevention, discrimination against GBV, police raids and violence against LGBT must stop.

Abstract

This paper attempts to analyze how Indonesian gay males and transgenders male to female in two different social, cultural and political contexts (in Indonesia and Northern Europe) are actively engaged in the making of their own subjectivity. Their subjectivities are entangled with gender, sexuality, religion, romantic love relationships and kinship. They juggle in negotiating and making sense of norms and values of societies that projected towards them. This paper aims to shed light on gender politics of gay and transgender Indonesians in the context of heterosexual hegemony and migration.

Abstract

This paper examines the complexities of human sexuality by challenging asumptions that have been built on binarism and biological-determinism. This attempt is done by examining the development of sexuality theory and studies from feminism to queer theory, through the lens of some theorists, from Michel Foucault, Judith Butler, Jack Halberstam, to Sara Ahmed. In addition, the development of sexuality studies in Indonesia is also explored, in order to show a myriad of interactions and relations of knowledge between global and local. Queer theory also provides space to criticize the hegemony of existing ‘labels’ which are originated from the West, and also to show that the meaning and subjectivity shaped by these labels are not always fixed when they are transferred to Indonesian context. For above reasons, this paper introduces the theoretical concept of sex(t)uality—in which sexuality operates like text.

Islamic religion in this case Shari’ah and Islamic law is used as a theological foundation by MUI to issued the fatwa that is contrary to the concept of human rights.
