The thesis consists of two parts. The first is about gender order. The second is
sisterhood. For gender order, it is divided into two types. One is female self-
construction, another one is female parent’s construction. The traditional society
implemented patriarchy which regarded female as secondary. The first part of thesis
emphasizes the ways of female to deconstruct their second class status and build up
self-construction so that to enhance their pride and society status. For female
self-construction, there were some methods such as fought against the patriarchy,
pursued love, pursued building up good character and pursued achievements. Besides,
the author tried to construct female’s parent by making the male parents absent from the family, or
gave them despicable character. The above reasons caused them losing their rights in the family. As
a result, the female parent automatically took over the family administration right. The exist of
female parent in the family implied that the female got rights to fight against the female second
role in the patriarchy. For sisterhood, it emphasizes the sincere feeling among female
relatives and friends. In relationship of mother and daughter, the mothers always showed
caring, love to their daughters. Besides, they also hoped their daughters get happy
marriage. Another point is the caring happened among the female friends and general
ladies. The good friends always showed caring and consoled their female friends whom were in
depression or encountered difficulties. The latter mostly showed their caring based on
female sympathies. For research method, close reading is the basic of research. The analysis of
thesis is also based on summarizing and comparing of texts. In general, the research is
conducted through combination of feminist theory and author’s perception of the topic and
other related methodologies. |
