Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the controversy surrounding content produced by feminine male Instagram celebrities in Aceh, being perceived to conflict with the region's cultural and religious values. These influencers create content by dressing in women's clothing, using feminine accessories, and adopting female speech patterns. Despite this, their endorsements are widely used by businesses in Aceh, including by a local university. This shows that the feminine brand they have cultivated has successfully attracted an audience, even though the content itself contradicts established cultural and religious values. The content is fully commodified to gain financial profit. The method used in this research was virtual ethnography with four levels of data analysis: media space, media documents, media objects, and experiences. Additional data were obtained through interviews with two cultural figures and two religious leaders to strengthen the findings. The results of the study indicated that the content uploaded by these feminine male celebrities undermines Acehnese cultural values and violates Islamic religious values. The content shows a shift in original gender roles from male to female. This phenomenon of feminine male content is considered an identity crisis among Instagram celebrities, who can influence others through the content they produce. From a religious perspective, this content can damage the foundation of life, as seen in the Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad that prohibits men from dressing and appearing as women. Furthermore, the financial profits obtained are considered haram (unlawful) because the process of earning the money is not permitted by Islam.

Abstract

This study analyzes Naguib Mahfouz’s novel Miramar through the lens of existential feminism, focusing on the character of Zahra representing a young woman who struggles to free herself from the social, psychological, and cultural constraints that limit her freedom. This research employs a qualitative descriptive-analytical approach by examining Zahra’s actions, dialogues, internal monologues, and character development throughout the story. Simone de Beauvoir’s existential feminist theory is applied to explore themes of freedom, self-determination, and resistance against patriarchal hegemony. The findings reveal that Zahra’s rejection of an arranged marriage, her courage to leave her hometown, and her commitment to working at the Miramar pension symbolizes her existential struggle. Zahra also faces intimidation, discrimination, and harassment from male characters, yet she continues to maintain her dignity and control over her life. This underscores her struggle to gain bodily autonomy, identity, and a future of her own. By depicting Zahra’s determination to achieve economic independence and personal development, Mahfouz offers a social critique of gender inequality and the restricted roles of women in post-revolutionary Egyptian society. This study concludes that Miramar is not merely a portrait of Zahra’s personal conflict but also a powerful commentary on class, identity, and women’s struggle to create the meaning of their own lives. The study highlights the relevance of existential feminism in understanding the dynamics of women’s freedom and resistance in modern literature.

Abstract

Vocabulary plays a crucial role in second language acquisition, and effective vocabulary learning strategies can significantly enhance language proficiency. However, while various strategies have been studied extensively, the influence of gender on vocabulary learning preferences remains insufficiently explored. This study addresses that gap by examining the types of vocabulary learning strategies used by male and female students in the English Language Education Department and analysing how these strategies are implemented in their learning processes. The purpose of this study, which employed a mixed-method approach using quantitative and qualitative techniques, is to identify the dominant strategies used by each gender and determine whether significant differences exist between male and female learners in their approach to vocabulary development. Thirty students (15 males and 15 females) participated by completing a vocabulary learning strategy questionnaire, followed by in-depth interviews with three male and three female students to gain richer insights into their practical strategy use. The results indicate that both male and female students predominantly use metacognitive strategies to build their vocabulary. Female students, however, consistently showed higher engagement across all five categories of strategies: metacognitive, determination, social, memory, and cognitive. Interview responses supported these findings and revealed that both genders commonly utilized strategies such as watching movies, reading, practicing speaking, and group discussions. Interestingly, only male students reported using vocabulary games as a learning tool. This study contributes to the field of second language learning by highlighting gender-based tendencies in strategy use, which can help educators design more inclusive and effective teaching approaches.

Abstract

Ulama in Aceh face significant challenges in integrating gender perspectives into their da'wah practices. The dominance of patriarchal culture and limited gender literacy often leads to the reinforcement rather than the deconstruction of gender stereotypes. This study employs a socio-religious approach to examine how ulama, as central figures in society, simultaneously sustain and contest social constructions that restrict gender roles—using qualitative methods including in-depth interviews, participant observation, and analysis of da'wah documents. The study finds that da'wah narratives frequently reproduce socially and religiously legitimized gender stereotypes. Nevertheless, some ulama have initiated efforts to challenge these norms by offering more inclusive and gender-just interpretations, aligning with the spirit of rahmatan lil 'alamin. The findings suggest ulama's role extends beyond preserving traditional values to acting as agents of change who can facilitate social transformation through gender-responsive da'wah. Achieving such a transformation requires synergy between ulama, communities, and progressive socio-religious policies to balance religious principles with social justice. This study underscores the importance of continuous dialogue and collaboration among ulama, educational institutions, and women's rights advocates to promote inclusivity within religious contexts. By integrating gender-sensitive approaches into religious discourse and curricula, sustainable progress toward equality can be fostered. Ultimately, the research emphasises that ulama's engagement in these efforts is vital for building a more inclusive, equitable society in Aceh and potentially beyond.
