Abstract

Converting to Islam is a form of religious conversion phenomenon that reflects the movement from one belief to another, in the context of this article, from Christianity to Islam. Although many studies have examined guidance and mentoring for converts, few (if any) have focused on the stigma against converts, especially female converts. This article fills this gap. This qualitative research was conducted in Buntu Pepasan Village, North Toraja. A total of 12 informants were involved in this study, consisting of eight women and four men, five of whom were converts, six families of converts, and one community leader. Data collection was carried out using in-depth interviews and observations. This study discusses how perceptions are related to converting. Some women converted to Islam based on personal beliefs and as an expression of religious freedom, others converted to Islam because of marriage. Converting to Islam not only has an impact on changes in spiritual beliefs, but it also has complex social consequences. In the new religion, they adapt in various aspects, namely: understanding Islamic teachings, eating habits, socializing, and changes in dress codes. They are socially ostracized from their families, but also excluded from customary rituals. However, it also highlights that female converts strive to practice Islam while maintaining ties with their families and cultural traditions. In addition, female converts are stigmatized with the term to pusa (heretics), who are considered to have deviated from ancestral values. The stigma against pusa is also combined with various negative terms such as to baga-baga (stupid people), to rokossik (naughty people), mariga-riga liu to pengauranmu (very dirty people), to natamai setang (people who are possessed by demons). However, the stigma against women who convert to islam is not directed at men. This is because a woman is a symbol of honor (siri’) for the family. Although they face serious challenges in the form of social stigma and identity conflicts, female converts show resilience and courage in living their new faith. This study emphasizes the importance of tolerance, respect for religious diversity, and the need for greater social support for converts. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the complex relationships between religion, culture, and identity, particularly in the context of female converts in Indonesia's multicultural society.

Abstract

Social media as a sophisticated technology presented by humans has become a medium for mobilizing mass protests, especially Instagram in this modern era. One of the features on Instagram, namely the template feature, has become a new medium for carrying out mass protests. In this article, we will discuss how the template feature becomes a medium for mobilizing spontaneous mass protests on Instagram which becomes a space for public participation in determining the direction of policy which in this case is interpreted as cyberdemocracy. This qualitative research was conducted using a netnographic approach. Netnographic research is used to explore culture in digital space, especially how people utilize digital space in activism movements through the template feature on Instagram. This study involved twelve informants aged (between 21 and 32 years) and acted as template makers and template distributors. Data collection in this study used observation and in-depth interview methods that lasted for six months. Mass protests through the template feature on Instagram discussed various issues ranging from problems related to sexual violence, government policies, human rights violations, and various other issues that are currently occurring in society. This action occurred due to the limitations of real space in voicing public aspirations and driven by the tendency to follow trends (virality). This template feature is used as a mobilization medium because the use of features that are more practical and easy to disseminate. In addition, the public can more easily accept the information conveyed through this template feature because of the presentation of the protest narrative which is made concisely. By utilizing this feature as a medium for mass protest actions on Instagram, it becomes a space for conveying public opinion in an effort to intervene in public policy.

Abstract

Ladies parking is a women-only parking facility introduced to improve the safety and comfort of female users. Many countries around the world have implemented this facility, including Indonesia. In Makassar, women-only parking faces various challenges in its implementation that affect the users’ experience. This article focuses on the user experience and obstacles encountered in the implementation of ladies parking in the city of Makassar. This research using a qualitative approach was conducted in three shopping centers in Makassar, namely Panakkukang Mall, Nipah Mall and Ratu Indah Mall. This study involved 13 informants who varied based on gender consisting of six women and seven men, age (between 21 and 53 years), job (college students, private employees, housewives, parking attendant, and lecturer) and status (users, intruders, parking attendants and observers). In-depth interview and observation are two data collection methods employed in this study. The findings of this study show that the experience of users of ladies parking facilities in the city of Makassar is divided between satisfaction and disappointment. While the first can be seen from the joy of female users because this facility helps to make ease to get a parking space. On the other hand, female users feel disappointed since many parking users ignore the ladies parking rules. This is a challenge in itself in optimizing the existence of this particular facility for women. Ladies parking cannot be optimized due to a number of obstacles, namely: the male intrusion into ladies parking who see parking area is for everybody regardless of their gender, the non-compliance of male drivers with rude responses, weak supervision in the ladies parking area, and limited space for the ladies parking. Non-compliance with special parking for women is usually followed by a debate related to equality in parking lots, that anyone can park anywhere, men or women and this hinders the provision of particular parking lots for women. The experience of the users of this facility also shows the need for improvement in supervision and rule enforcement to optimize the implementation of ladies parking in order to provide comfort and security for female drivers.

Abstract

The phenomenon of feminine men who do not conform to hegemonic masculinity norms is often subject to social stigma, particularly through negative labelling, such as the term boti. This study aims to explore the responses of feminine men to such stigma, understand the campus environment’s perception of their identities, examine the construction of gender identity within campus social spaces, and analyze the social impact of stigmatization. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method and narrative analysis to explore the experiences of victims of stigma and the social interaction patterns that influence them. Data were collected through interviews with ten informants, consisting of four feminine male students (victims of stigma), two students who perpetrated the stigma, two members of the academic staff (lecturers), and two other students. The findings reveal that feminine men respond to stigma in various ways, including rejecting the label, adapting to the social environment, ignoring the stigma, and accepting it as a form of self-affirmation. The impacts caused by stigma include: labeling and exclusion, social pressure, identity conflict and discomfort in social relations, and the emergence of alternative social dynamics that are exclusive and defensive. The social pressure not only affects their psychological well-being, but also impacts their interpersonal relationships and academic performance. Some experience tension of identity, while others manage to build supportive social spaces. This study emphasizes the importance of creating an inclusive campus environment not merely by promoting tolerance, but by fostering mutual understanding. Through constructive dialogue, campuses can become spaces that promote equality and solidarity for diverse gender expressions

Abstract

E-sport have evolved from a form of entertainment into a global industry with significant social, economic, and cultural impacts. While most studies focus more on negative impact of e-sport, very limited studies on the positive impact on this kind of sport, particularly among university students. This article explores e-sports practices within the university environment as a form of digital competition that goes beyond entertainment and becomes a medium for identity production, symbolic capital, as well as local expression. Using a qualitative approach and a case study of the Unhas E-sport community, data were collected through participant observation and in-depth interviews with ten informants, consisting of three e-sport professional players, four e-sport fans, and three e-sport tournament organizers. The findings reveal four key points: first, e-sports is perceived not merely as gaming, but as a career path and form of digital labor requiring discipline and strategy; second, campus-level tournaments are organized professionally, demanding intensive preparation and high mental resilience; third, the competition process involves media distribution strategies that construct reputation and symbolic capital; and fourth, e-sports practices reflect Makassar’s local expressions through team identity, cultural narratives, and the use of digital spaces. Overall, e-sports functions as a symbolic arena and microeconomic environment that fuses global gaming culture with local values, while also shaping a new digital habitus among university students.

Abstract

In recent years, the All You Can Eat (AYCE) concept restaurant has become increasingly popular as a group dining venue among Indonesian consumers, including families, teenagers, office workers and culinary enthusiasts, food vloggers, etc. where people can eat as much as they want. However, consumers cannot just take the food. While most studies on food waste focus on how restaurants' policies prevent food waste, this article not only looks at restaurant policies, but also how consumers are responsible for what they take at AYEC concept restaurant. This qualitative research was conducted on consumers of shabu & grill restaurants in Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Informants was selested using puspossive sampling based on the criteria that they have experienced eating at AYCE restaurant. There are ten informants participated in this study, who are varied on the basis of gender (three males and seven females), age (between 21 and 30), and job (students, office workers, and general public). Data was collected using observation of dining activities and in-depth interviews, exploring their views on AYCE concept, restauran’st policy, and consumers’ responsibility (driven by individual awareness and fine system). Shabu & grill all-you-can-eat (AYCE) restaurants offer a unique dining experience for counsumers, not only in their diverse food offerings but also through specific policies: fixed pricing, self-service, time limits, and a fine system. The fixed, upfront payment allows diners to enjoy unlimited dishes, differentiating it from conventional à la carte restaurants. The self-service model provides customers with full autonomy in selecting their desired food. However, time limits necessitate self-control to prevent food waste and exceeding allocated dining durations, both of which incur fines. Consumer perspectives on the AYCE concept are twofold: food exploration and food responsibility. The former allows patrons to sample a wide array of dishes, while the latter fosters individual accountability for consumption, driven by personal awareness and the fear of penalties for leftover food or exceeding time limits. Consumers employ situational adaptation strategies to adjust behavior to AYCE demands, as well as economic calculations through careful food and portion selection to manage consumption. Consequently, AYCE restaurants operate as a "controlled freedom" environment, where the liberty to eat unlimited food is balanced by consequences for irresponsible consumption.
