Abstract

The present paper discusses women’s status in public space in East Kalimantan short stories. Using feminist perspectives, it analyzes the process that women do to choose their identities by discussing how women are placed in a social construction and women’s attitude toward that position as well. The analysis result shows that women are marginally placed in public space and they resist or refuse that behavior and there are also women who cannot get out of patriarchal attitudes since they are socially and economically weak. Those patriarchal attitudes set up self-conflicts. The identity selection process is complicated.
