Abstract

This study will examine fashion as a form of resistance for women to actualize bodily autonomy. Women's lives within a patriarchal system shape the formation of a controlled discourse on women's fashion. This study interprets this control over women's fashion as a process of domesticating the body (docile bodies). Sandra Lee emphasizes that women's bodies are subject to discriminatory control. However, counter-discourse can change hegemonic discourse through the circulation of what Foucault calls "subjugated knowledge.” Therefore, this study aims to examine fashion as a site of counter-discourse about what fashion means to young female feminist activists who refuse to contribute to the production of the discourse of "domesticated bodies." This study observes young female feminist activists in the Special Region of Yogyakarta. It is qualitative research. Data collection techniques include three methods: observation, interviews, and literature review. This study utilized interviews with several young female feminist activists in the Special Region of Yogyakarta. The selection of informants used purposive sampling techniques, with a background as a student (either state or private in DIY) and involvement in the feminist activism movement. The results of the study show the following counter-discourse: first, a new awareness that the body is a space for contestation of resistance; second, the informants show new fashion expressions, which are autonomous choices for their bodies; and third, using fashion as a means to spread their freedom and spread feminist issues.

Abstract

This study describes forms of student exploitation in campus fundraising activities through a Marxist feminist perspective. In practice, fundraising is often viewed as a learning activity and a means of developing students' interpersonal skills. However, the findings of this study indicate that behind this narrative lies a power relationship that places students, especially women, in exploitative positions of reproductive and emotional labor. This study used qualitative methods with a phenomenological approach to explore the lived experiences of three informants directly involved in fundraising activities. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, organizational observations, documentation studies, and literature reviews, then describes using thematic analysis techniques. The results of the study indicate four forms of exploitation: (1) a greater reproductive and emotional workload on female students; (2) a gender-based division of labor that places women in tasks related to body representation and public interactions; (3) structural pressures through hierarchies and organizational cultures that normalize uncompensated work; and (4) the commodification of women's bodies as a strategy for obtaining funds. This study concludes that the exploitation that occurs is the result of the intersection of campus capitalism and patriarchy that operate through organizational structures. These findings emphasize the importance of critiquing fundraising practices to make them more fair, transparent, and sensitive to gender issues.

Abstract

This study examines the phenomenon of gender bias embedded within the technical structure of Arabic textbooks, a pedagogical tool often perceived as a neutral medium for knowledge transfer. Specifically, it aims to uncover gender subordination within Muhammad Yusron’s Qawāid al-Lughah al-Arabiyyah through the lens of Roland Barthes’ semiotics. Employing a qualitative-descriptive method, the analysis scrutinizes three primary instructional components: reading materials (al-qirā’atu), grammatical rules (al-qawāidu), and exercises (al-tadrībātu), to deconstruct the two-stage signification system of denotation and connotation. The findings reveal that gender subordination is systematically manifested through the dominance of male subjects as the primary centers of intellectual, social, and religious authority. Semiotically, the marginalization of female representation and the use of collective diction, such as substituting zaujah (wife) with usrah (family), serve as potent indicators of "masculine normativity." Through repetitive grammatical signs and an exercise ratio of 5:1 favoring males, the textbook effectively reinforces the myth of men as the central subjects of Arabic linguistics, while relegating women to marginal roles. This study concludes that seemingly objective grammatical rules function as a vehicle for internalizing patriarchal ideology. These implications necessitate a deconstruction and reconstruction of the Arabic curriculum to foster a more inclusive, gender-responsive framework that ensures equitable representation without symbolic discrimination.
