Abstract

Tiktok has become very popular among people from various backgrounds, but especially among women. Although they can use Tiktok for a variety of activities, many women use Tiktok to show off their dances. This study argues that Tiktok application provides a medium for women to articulate their interpretation of their body that is limited by dominant discourses (especially around beauty) yet simultaneously liberating from everyday constraints. Through Tiktok, women show off their understanding of women’s bodies freed from the gendered prescriptions. This freedom of interpretation can be understood as women’s becoming the subject of their bodies. This study attempts to argue that in women’s embodiment in Tiktok, where women’s body is in contact with technology, the body has transformed its meaning into the posthuman body, to the extent it frees itself from the limitations of the body as bound to physiological function and fixed meanings.

Abstract

The exploitation that occurs in nature is a form of domination that is considered to have a relationship with the dominance that occurs in women because the exploitation of nature goes hand in hand with the oppression of women. Nature causes more and more damage, and women get the impact of that damage that leads them to fight against fundamental issues related to their survival. This paper raises the issue of environmental degradation experienced by women bamboo weaving and their active involvement in maintaining natural resources that act as their source of life. This research is a qualitative research conducted in Cimahpar Village, Girijaya Cianjur, West Java, with data obtained from observations, FGDs, and interviews. The data is focused on the perspective of eco-feminism, namely by examining more deeply the dominance experienced by women who are bamboo craft weaver and their efforts to prevent environmental damage and loss for their living. The results show that woman bamboo craft weavers are aware of protecting their environment, which is manifested by fighting against the attempts to destroy the bamboo ecosystem, leading to landslides. To maintain the bamboo ecosystem, the women of Cimahpar continue to utilize bamboo for various purposes. Subsequently, they protect their environment for their living
