ISU KESETARAAN GENDER DALAM OPTIK FEMINIST JURISPRUDENCE DAN IMPLEMENTASINYA DI INDONESIA

Abstract

The feminists are of the view that history is written from the point of view of men and does not voice the role of women in making history and forming the structure of society. Feminists challenge and dismantle the belief or myth that men and women are so different, that certain behaviors can be distinguished on the basis of gender differences. Gender according to feminists is created or socially shaped not biologically. Sex determines physical appearance, reproductive capacity, but does not determine psychological, moral or social characteristics. This difference in responsibility between genders then results in "doing gender", which is doing something in accordance with the personal gender attributes inherent in him, and to do so requires certain preconditions. But often these differences are accommodated so that conditions of gender inequality arise which then triggers a rejection movement that exists in the gender differences.
