Tradition of the Good Writing for Women

Women, Menulislah! For the sake of justice, equality, humanity and beauty

I think we should maraknya delighted to welcome the presence of women writers in Indonesia perbukuan Jagat. The more women who can express and disseminate ideas through any posts luaskan is a positive signal in the close community that we berkeadilan.

Realize it or not, the structure of society that is not just between women and men still occur in our society. The problem is not only gender inequality issues individu.Ada a set of paradigms that have been embedded in the head man who does not just apply to women. This is the issue of society, culture and country as a whole as a social system.

Language reflects the society that uses it. But on the community level where there are structures that gender bias and tend not fair to women, it is also reflected in the akan language. For example, we still only use the term Baby Tuna Susila (WTS), which is aimed at female sex workers. However, the term Male Tuna Susila as the ‘buyer’ of the services of women sex workers or men mucikari often not used. While prostitution activities will only take place according to the law and request a quote, which involved women and men. So why are women digelari ‘immoral’?

According to philosopher Michel Foucalt a mahzab Post-strukturalis, language summarize the knowledge about the world. If you want dikritisi, the language we use is not neutral but the media representations that play a role in the reproduction of meaning. So speak the language can not be disengaged from the relationship of power, especially in the formation of the subject and action representation in the community.

In a patriarchal society, the perempuanlah the lack of power or of power scarcity. So to improve the structure of a more equitable society, a strategy must be women who are talking! According to Foucalt against women must be a ’speaking subject’, which also means “the subject of the statement.”

Silence and quiet will be a shelter for power, then women should appear, and refused to speak as the object. As Helen Cixous, French feminist, it is very important for women to break kebisuan strategies reinforce the text with the speech and writing.

Then it is important for a woman to appear as the subject, in this case as the author. We as women have a moral obligation to utter sounds of women during this terbisukan for the world a more just, more equal, more humane, and (for women) as we impi-impikan.

Then, we menulislah for beauty. Fatimah Mernissi a Marokko feminist writing in the book Women’s rebellion and Islamic memory that the writing is better rather than operating pengencangan face or skin moisturizing cream.

Try to write every day. You will skin will be fresh
again due to the womb manfatnya the extraordinary! From the moment you
wake up, increase the activity Writing cells. With the first stroke
on the blank paper, bag under your eyes akan segera
vanish and your skin will feel fresh again. Towards the middle of the day,
it is on prime condition. Actively with the uterus,
strengthen the structure to write your epidermis. At the end of the day, wrinkle -
You are wrinkle and fade softly into your face again.

The secret is in writing is to create a supine into the full attention of readers. According to Fatimah so we have learned to write-deliver a message that is close to our hearts those who previously indifferent, now will put more attention to know what we should say. So that we do not need to rant so listen. To change the people around us, first we must change ourselves. Changes other than the consequences of changes in the attitudes we see ourselves and others. We must believe that we would submit something that is important and therefore must be submitted with a fine as well.

Of course we do not adopt the theory of Fatimah Mernissi, Writing = panacea for the ageless, is verbatim. Beauty is something that is inside-out. We can be a beautiful life because of our attitudes positive and productive work. Leave a face cream and diet pills. Take pen and paper, start writing. Write whatever. Inconvenience when we disuit-suiti men on the road, when we have irritation on the part of us that private body, the news we read the anger rape women in the newspaper. Whatever.

So women, menulislah! For the dream-vision about our world a more just, more equal, and more berkemanusiaan for women. Let the world can hear our perturbation-perturbation, our experiences, ideas mad we, the women. And, of course, become more beautiful with the standards that we have created yourself. Not only white, well-section, straight and blond long as the standards created by the community patriarkat this!
