Abstract

The term childfree is used to refer to people or couples who choose not having children. Childfree is considered violating Catholic marriage vow and becomes controversy. Despite its controversy, childfree becomes more common. This article deals with childfree in Catholic teachings from the view of childfree adherents, religious leaders, and church people. This qualitative research was conducted in Makassar. There are 13 informants who get involved in this study, consisting of six childfree adherents, a priest, two fraters and four Catholics. Data was collected using in-depth interview and observation. Childfree among Catholic couples raises oppositional responses, between those who agree and those who disagree. The Catholic Church teaches that procreation is the main purpose of marriage, while each individual is free to choose not to have children (childfree). Procreation is not only seen as a biological act, but also as a spiritual act that consummates marriage and is part of God's plan. Children are not only considered descendants, but also "gift from God." The reasons why Catholic couples choose to be childfree are the trauma of miscarriage, fear of childcare, the desire to enjoy being together as a couple, and not wanting to be bothered. Although the choice to be childfree is a personal right, this is contrary to the teachings of the Catholic Church. The childfree option is quite disturbing when viewed from the perspective of Catholic teachings. However, if a Catholic couple has made a choice, they are expected to balance it with religious service activities. This means that even though the childfree choice is contrary to Catholic teachings, they are expected to get closer to God to balance between the choice and the service. Catholic religious leaders expressed their concern about the increasingly widespread childfree phenomenon. According to them, childfree goes against Catholic religious teachings regarding marriage and procreation. Catholics also have different views regarding rejecting childfree because they consider it a rejection of God's will and ignoring the purpose of marriage. Accepting a partner's choice to be childfree is simply out of respect for each partner's personal decision as an individual right.

Abstract

The controversy of the existence of transgender (waria) is evident. In Soppeng, Their existence has recently become controversial with its various activities, one of which is the Porseni waria event throughout South Sulawesi which resulted in strong protests from the surrounding community because this event is considered as an effort to carry out an indirect campaign in supporting to legalize LGBT, including waria. This was mainly triggered by the increasing number of waria communities. While waria are increasingly and openly proving their existence and their groups in Soppeng, there are also waria who intend and/or are transformed into full men. This article deals with how waria repent in order to return to their biological sex status as normal men. This qualitative research was conducted in Lalabata District of Soppeng Regency for three months in 2023. I triangulate between in-depth interview and observation as my data collection methods. There were eight waria involved in this study whose age between 26 and 46 years, with various types of work (private employees, gold sellers, farmers, waiters and construction workers). The study indicates that there are two main factors that trigger the repentance of waria to be a full male, internal and external factors. The internal factors consist of something stucking in one’s heart, desire to start a new life, desire to get married, and spiritual calling, as the main trigger; the external factors include family encouragement and social pressure, as the supporting trigger. Internal and external factors are intertwined with each other. The repent strategies carried out by waria comprise of staying away from waria social environment, changing appearance, following ruqyah, and attending tarbiyah/taklim/religious lectures. In addition, the impacts of conversion experienced by waria is feeling happy, changing their appearance, and planning their future life by building a family and deepening their religion. It is argued in this article that the further away a waria is from his community, the easier for waria to repent and to transform into a normal man.

Abstract

In recent years, there are two terms related to infidelity, namely pelakor, a label that is given to women who snatch someone’s husband and pebinor, a label that is given to men who snatch someone’s wife. However, the term pelakor is more popular than pebinor, either in real life or in social media. This is also the case for stigma. Stigma to pelakor is more popular than stigma associated with pebinor. While the existing literatures on infidelity focus more on stigma toward pelakor on social media, little [if any], study deals with stigma towards pelakor from the perspective of pelakor themselves. This article fills this gap. This qualitative research was conducted in Makassar. There are five pelakor who get involved in this study. Data collection was carried out using in-depth interview and observation through social media. The research shows that the reasons why women snatch someone’s husband are economic needs, frequency of encounters, and rekindled love (CLBK). The process of becoming a pelakor often begins through social media, workplace interactions, or introduced by friends. In the perspective of pelakor, the stigma against them includes labels such as women without self-respect, cheap women, love in love, and immoral women, reflecting society's negative perceptions towards pelakor. However, pelakor themselves respond to this stigma in various ways, ranging from feeling of shame and desiring for self-improvement, to behave indifference toward social judgment, reflecting their personal autonomy over their life choices. It is argued in this article that while pelakor realised that they are stigmatised and ruin someone’s marriage, no one immediately ends their relationship. Pelakor even “enjoy” the affair and don’t care what people say about it.

Abstract

The era of modernization opens up a wide space for students to be directly involved in various forms of discourse and forums in the real space as well as virtual space. The student movement, which is always identified with taking to the streets and ending in anarchy makes society anxious, nowadays meme-based movement emerges as an alternative for students to convey their aspiration as well as critics to the authorities. While the existing literatures focus more on the use of meme as a medium for society to participate in socio-political issues, this article examines the content and effectiveness of meme-based movement of Unhas students. This qualitative research was carried out at Hasanuddin University using in-depth interview and observation as my data collection methods. Eight informants participated in this research, they consist of four activists and another four meme makers. The study shows that meme-based movement has initially emerged from personal concerns of meme makers regarding social, political, and government policies in Indonesia. This then turned into a common concern among students. Unhas students' conception of meme is related to the combination of images and writing that contains information. So far, this meme-based movement has been used by Unhas students regarding a series of issues related to the fate of lower classes, political discourse, and regulatory changes. However, memes as an alternative movement method has some weaknesses, namely the effectiveness of the movement in terms of the spread of meme content and the progress of the movement) and the short content of meme tends to rise multiple interpretations and therefore has the potential to cause misinterpretation for readerst.

Abstract

The proliferation of online loan (pinjol) users among students is not something new, in fact many studies have examined the use of online loans, which focus more on the ease of accessing online loans. This article focuses on the reasons and impacts of using online loans among university students. Using qualitative approach, this study was carried out in Makassar City between September and December 2023. There were ten informants who participated in this study, consisting of seven women and three men, with an age range of 20 to 21 years. In this study, in-depth interviews and observation methods were used as data collection techniques. The results of this research show students have many needs, but at the same time have limited funds whike they depend on their parents. So they will look for various alternatives to have money and to meet their needs, one way is to borrow money. In this modern era, technology and financial sector are innovating to create new services, namely online loans. Online loans help the general public, including students, who need fast funds with easy requirements and quick process. The reasons why students use loans are divided into two, namely: to meet urgent needs (such as buying books, paying boarding houses, and paying off debts); and to meet their entertainment needs (such as online shopping and gambling capital). If online loans are used for urgent needs, then borrowing is a "gift". However, if online loans are used for entertainment needs, then online loans are a "disaster". Addiction to such loan and being entangled in an endless cycle of debt to the point of using other loans to pay off debt are the impacts of uncontrolled use of online loans.

Abstract

Traffic accidents pose a serious threat to modern society, with significant consequences including injury, disability, death, and economic and social impacts, caused primarily by motor vehicles, and influenced by environmental, mechanical, and human factors. Current traffic research often focuses on driver-related factors, including aggressive driving behavior. This article aimed to review literature concerning aggressive driving and the psychosocial factors that may influence it. This article is based on an examination literature review of 18 research articles, regarding psychological variables influencing aggressive driving behaviour. The study shows that psychosocial factors are categorised into four, namely cognitive, personality, mental condition, and social factors. Cognitive factors consist of risk perception, self-control, moral disengagement, perceived behavioral control, traffic locus of control, mindfulness, psychological resilience, cognitive reappraisal, cognitive emotion regulation, and difficulties in emotion regulation. Personality factors comprise the Big Five traits (conscientiousness, agreeableness, and neuroticism), the Dark Triad traits (narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy), the Light Triad traits (humanism, Kantianism, and faith in humanity), life history strategies, driver overconfidence, attitudes toward aggressive driving, willingness to drive aggressively, emotional maturity, emotional intelligence, impulsivity, and sensation seeking. Mental condition factors consist of stress, anxiety, and depression. Social factors consist of social desirability, safe driving climate among friends (peer pressure, social costs, communication, and shared commitment to safe driving), social exclusion, social identity, and masculinity. This literature review is constrained by the limited number of sources analyzed. Future research should aim to include a greater number of studies and broaden the scope of psychosocial factors influencing aggressive driving.
