Abstract

Applying certain psychological designations to six short stories selected from Hemingway’s Men Without Women, the present paper investigates the variable defense mechanisms that occur in the behavioral manifestations of the fictional characters. The characters’ stressed reactions are examined in accordance with given patterns of defense mechanisms before placing them within the broader framework of autobiographical repressed anxieties. The study concludes that the represented characters project Hemingway's unconscious defenses against three major sources of anxiety: the feminized dominance over his world which leads to the fear of emasculation, the sense of nostalgia for a lost male company, and the post-traumatic stress disorders caused by his terrible war experience.

Abstract

The existence of plus size contender in Miss Universe has broken down the normalization of slenderness which has been one of manifestations of femininity in American society and its beauty pageant industries. The plus size lens is brought by Siera Bearchell who has been placed on Top 9 in Miss Universe 2016 edition to resist the cultural normalization of slender body size. By using textual analysis, this research focuses on Siera Bearchell’s YouTube videos and news articles related to the plus size contender to investigate the way she embodies the cultural resistance through her personal practices in the Miss Universe pageant. This research shows that Siera Bearchell has failed at embodying the dominant ideology of feminine slender ideal in Miss Universe. However, this failure cannot put Siera Bearchell to cultural obedience to the bodily ideal. This occurs since Siera Bearchell has resisted the cultural normalization by embodying her plus size body as a state for personal space and freedom. Therefore, the symbol of normalization of feminine slender size contradicts her identity as the plus size contender. Ultimately, this research shows that the existence of plus size contender in Miss Universe has been a symbol of cultural resistance of femininity in the American beauty pageant.

Abstract

The popularity of Wonder Woman (2017) movie worldwide is not only reached the western lands but also the eastern countries, including Indonesia. Wonder Woman offers western post-feminist idea which can bring various responses to the audiences in Indonesia. By using descriptive qualitative approach, this research explores how the young audiences in Indonesia take pleasure and make meaning to the element of feminism in the movie. This research finds that Gal Gadot’s Diana performance in the movie offers special spectacle to the audience through her feminine qualities, such as beautiful face, ideal female body, and gentle character, despite being a powerful female hero who also has the quality of courage, strong determination, athleticism, and skill in fighting. The duality of Diana’s character, the femininity and masculinity, is also noted by the audiences as one of the most notably signs which presented feminism in the movie. Although most of the audiences are Muslim and embrace eastern culture, they tend to be more open to the feminist signs in the movie, as they have often been familiarized themselves with western values by frequently watching Hollywood movies.
