Abstract

This research delves into the intricate interplay between societal norms and the honor attributed to women, specifically addressing the pervasive myths surrounding the virginity of Muslim women in Indonesia. Rooted in the negative impacts experienced by women due to their virginity status, this inquiry seeks to unravel the perspectives of 17 Muslim women on the significance of virginity within the context of Islamic teachings. Employing qualitative research methods, including in-depth interviews, the study illuminates nuanced dimensions, shedding light on how these women navigate the complexities surrounding their virginity. The findings underscore three pivotal conclusions: Indonesian Muslim women emphasize the importance of virginity and the need to protect it. Importantly, they highlight that virginity is not solely judged based on the hymen. Moreover, their stories reveal that Islam honors women who maintain their virginity. These conclusions contribute significantly to a more comprehensive understanding of the societal implications and individual experiences associated with the concept of virginity among Muslim women in Indonesia. The study's outcomes hold the potential to inform broader discussions on cultural perceptions and foster awareness, promoting respectful discourse surrounding the role of virginity within the social fabric.

Abstract

The Warung Jablay business in the North Hulu Sungai Regency area has disturbed many residents. Basically, this kind of night girl stall has the same function as other stalls, but often because of the presence of young girls with sexy and skimpy clothes and differences in the way of service provided and differences in customer segmentation which are mostly filled by young people. So, there are many things that violate morals and religion in the field, and this is not in line with the teachings of Islam. This study aims to map how the practice of Warung Jablay in Hulu Sungai Utara is associated with Perspectives in the Sociology of Islamic Law, because Hulu Sungai Utara Regency is famous for its high religious area and is known as Bertaqwa City. This research is field wise with a qualitative descriptive approach. The results of this study found that people believe that the behavior of some people who run a stall business like this is driven by economic factors and desires. In addition, the community also considered the behavior of Warung Jablay workers to be out of bounds and violated moral, social, and religious norms.

Abstract

The polemic of gender equality and justice in its status and role in society is one of the studies that is often echoed to this day. Polemics over gender equality can be found in various fields, one of which is in the field of education, especially in the learning media, namely textbooks. This study examines women’s subordination, activity-based gender stereotypes, and cultural codes used to normalize gender roles and shape readers’ ideological understanding in the Arabic textbook Al-Arabiyah li al-Nasyi'in.  This study employs a qualitative approach using library research to analyze the Arabic textbook Al-'Arabiyah li al-Nasyi'in Volume 2 through Sara Mills’ critical discourse analysis framework. This study reveals three findings: (1) the subordination of women in the text through domestic roles, while men are associated with outdoor activities and greater dominance; (2) gender stereotypes in the text, with feminine labels assigned to women and masculine labels to men through garden and car activities; and (3) the author employs mediation and cultural codes to normalize gender roles and engage readers in the construction of ideological meaning. This study concludes that the textbook is not a neutral medium but a reproduction of patriarchy through everyday language, which appears natural and shapes students’ acceptance of gender inequality as something inherent. This study contributes to strengthening Sara Mills’ Critical Discourse Analysis by providing a gender bias detection instrument for teaching materials, thereby promoting inclusive curricula and critical student learning.

Abstract

The communication gap between male and female students remains a subject of debate. In the digital education era, it is necessary to examine whether gender differences truly influence communication skills or whether other factors play a more dominant role. This study examines students’ communication skills by gender, identifying similarities and differences across language use, interpersonal abilities, communication ethics, and technology utilization in the learning process. This study employed a comparative descriptive method with a sample of 38 students selected through quota sampling. Data were collected using a questionnaire, analyzed with SPSS, and tested using an independent samples t-test, with assumptions of normality and homogeneity of variance being assessed. The study findings reveal: (1) female students demonstrate higher levels of communication skills in language use, listening ability, and logical thinking, whereas male students perform better in communication ethics and technology utilization; multilingual communication remains the main weakness for both groups. (2) Gender-based communication skill scores show a very small difference between females (3.32%) and males (3.28%), with a minimal gap of 0.04, confirming that there is no statistically significant difference. The study concludes that there is no significant difference in communication skills between genders, thereby rejecting biological determinism. Multilingual communication is a shared weakness, accompanied by dependence on digital translation tools. This study contributes to supporting the social construction of gender, rejecting biological determinism, and demonstrating that an equal educational environment and student-centered learning are effective in neutralizing communication bias.

Abstract

The rise of social media has produced increasingly complex forms of gender identity expression, sparking debates over the boundaries between self-expression, hobby, and gender identity formation in contemporary society. This study aims to analyze the meaning of crossdressing as both a hobby and an exploration of gender identity, as well as the adaptation strategies of the Indonesian crossdresser community in maintaining their boundaries of identity, morality, and social existence in a private manner. This study employed a descriptive qualitative method with Facebook content analysis, triangulation techniques (observation, documentation, and unstructured interviews), data reduction, and interpretation grounded in Judith Butler's queer theory. This study finds that: (1) crossdressing in the Indonesian community carries dual meanings from a simple hobby and self-expression to an early exploration of gender identity potentially leading to permanent transition; (2) the Indonesian crossdresser community firmly separates itself from LGBTQ+ issues, bans pornography, condemns the Crosshijaber incident, and engages in discreet, respectful 'outing' activities. This study concludes that the Indonesian crossdresser community exists within a structural contradiction: the dual meaning of crossdressing (as a hobby versus a pathway to gender transition) and the rejection of LGBTQ+ identity function as adaptation strategies. Nevertheless, public stigma continues to equate crossdressers with LGBT communities. This study extends Social Identity Theory, critiques Western queer assumptions, offers guidance for polite 'outing', and recommends policies distinguishing crossdressing from transgender to reduce stigma.

Abstract

Muslim women's leadership has gained global attention. They actively pursue leadership positions while facing gender stereotypes and traditional perceptions. This study explores the factors of religious knowledge, emotional intelligence, and their experiences of challenges. The study aims to analyze the level of trust in the leadership potential of Muslim women, identify the main supporting factors (religious knowledge, multitasking, emotional intelligence), and explore the challenges arising from traditional interpretations of Islam and low public trust. This study employed a mixed-methods approach with 127 Muslim women leaders. Data were collected through interviews and surveys, analyzed using thematic analysis and descriptive statistics, and then integrated. The findings revealed three key points: (1) The leadership potential of Muslim women is demonstrated by high trust (63%) and optimism about future role enhancement (56%). (2) The main supporting factors include religious knowledge, multitasking, emotional intelligence, and perceived gender equality. (3) The main challenges stem from traditional interpretations of Islam and low trust in Muslim women's leadership, which limit acceptance. The study concludes that Muslim women's leadership is influenced by individual potential, supporting factors, and religious and social interpretive barriers, although progress in perceptions of gender equality in the workplace is evident. This study contributes to the development of human capital and intersectionality in Muslim women's leadership and offers practical recommendations including inclusive training, affirmative policies, and advocacy for more egalitarian religious interpretations.

Abstract

The global discourse on sexual recession has intensified alongside the increasing trend of singlehood. The decline in the global population reflects this transformation, while a significant proportion of millennials tend to avoid marriage and long-term commitment. This study aims to analyze gamophobia as a multidimensional phenomenon reflecting permissivism, psychosocial threats, and patriarchal gender constructions. The study employed a literature review approach with critical analysis of academic sources related to gamophobia, gender, and permissivism. Data were analyzed thematically through source triangulation to generate valid findings regarding social, psychological, and gender dynamics in modern society. The findings reveal three major issues: (1) Gamophobia among millennials reflects permissivism, in which personal freedom, career orientation, and self-development are prioritized over marriage and family resilience; (2) Gamophobia triggers isolation, depression, declining birth rates, weakened family resilience, and demographic instability as consequences of shifting modern social values; and (3) Gamophobia is shaped by patriarchal constructions and relational inequality, thus requiring pre-family resilience through emotional readiness and premarital commitment. This study concludes that gamophobia represents a multidimensional social crisis driven by permissivism, gender inequality, and changing modern values, resulting in declining marriage rates, psychosocial vulnerability, and weakened family and demographic resilience. The study contributes by integrating permissivism and gender perspectives into gamophobia studies while proposing pre-family resilience as a preventive strategy through emotional readiness, self-efficacy, premarital education, and the reinforcement of moral values to foster more stable family relationships.

Abstract

In Indonesia, single women continue to face negative stigma. They are often perceived as "incomplete" individuals for being unmarried or not wishing to marry. Society tends to view single women with concern, although they may still experience happiness through the social support and religiosity they possess. This study aimed to examine the relationship between social support and religiosity with happiness among single women. A quantitative approach was employed using an online survey of 82 single women selected through purposive sampling. Standardized instruments were used, and data were analyzed using parametric statistical methods with SPSS. The results revealed a significant positive relationship between social support and religiosity with happiness among single women (r = 0.650). Higher levels of both factors were associated with greater happiness. Social support helps mitigate external stigma, while religiosity provides positive meaning to singlehood, reduces stress, and enhances happiness. The study concludes that social support and religiosity are positively related to happiness in single women, with the majority of participants falling into the moderate category and religiosity emerging as a more prominent internal factor. This study contributes to social exchange theory and expands the understanding of religiosity as a coping mechanism, offering practical implications for developing social support systems, psychological interventions, and more inclusive public policies toward single women.

Abstract

The practice of taʿlīq al-ṭalāq faces implementation challenges due to differing social, cultural, and legal contexts, leading to variations in the protection of wives' rights in Islamic marriage in Indonesia and Morocco. This study aims to analyze and compare the practice in both countries to understand how Islamic family law is institutionalized, interpreted, and applied across different social settings. A qualitative descriptive-comparative method with content analysis of classical Islamic legal texts, regulations, and scholarly literature was employed to examine the influence of legal, cultural, and gender factors. Three key findings emerge. First, in Indonesia, taʿlīq al-ṭalāq has been institutionalized through marriage traditions, state regulations, and official registration, systematically bridging religious norms, local culture, and state law. Second, in Morocco, taʿlīq al-ṭalāq functions as a legal instrument for women's protection through anti-polygamy clauses, strengthening wives' autonomy and the state's role in achieving marital equality. Third, Indonesia emphasizes family stability through the husband's obligations, whereas Morocco prioritizes the protection of women's rights, reflecting divergent policy orientations in modern Islamic family law. The study concludes that Islamic family law is dynamic and contextual. Indonesia focuses on family stability, while Morocco focuses on the protection of women's rights; both represent adaptations to their respective socio-political contexts. This study enriches the sociology of law through its analysis of the plurality of Islamic family law and provides a practical reference for developing responsive policies concerning women's protection and the socio-religious context of society.

Abstract

In the postmodern era, commodification refers to the transformation of art, culture, and individual identity into tradable commodities, shifting emotional and social value into economic value and digital consumption. This study analyzes women’s engagement in the commodification of sadness on Instagram through melancholic music preferences, emotional labour in comment sections, and the influence of algorithms, influencers, and digital marketing on music consumption. The study employs netnography and thematic analysis to examine Instagram comments on Indonesian sad songs, using data from popular posts, sentiment coding, and ethical handling of public digital data. Findings show: (1) women predominantly prefer melancholic music, especially sad to very sad songs reflecting loss, waiting, and life pressure, indicating active emotional engagement as listeners; (2) women perform emotional labour by expressing heartbreak and regret in comment sections, turning private emotions into public spectacle that generates interaction and digital economic value; and (3) women are affected by music homogenization and commercialization shaped by influencers, algorithms, and digital marketing, positioning them as both agents and victims of commodified sadness. The study concludes that commodification of sadness on Instagram involves women as listeners and emotional labour actors, reinforced by algorithmic and influencer systems, transforming private emotions into publicly consumed content with economic value through engagement. This study contributes to postmodern commodification theory, gender studies, and Indonesian collectivist cultural perspectives, while encouraging critical digital awareness, algorithmic transparency, and stronger regulation of emotional data monetization in social media ecosystems.
