The ontological question of woman’s nature forms the focus of this essay, which develops the theory of “woman becoming…” to examine how the hegemonic patriarchal discourses and constructs of woman and femininity are subverted and reinterpreted in two speculative short stories by transnational SoutheastAsian women writers, namely Intan Paramaditha’s “Beauty and the seventh dwarf” (2018) and Isabel Yap’s “Good girls” (2021). Of interest here are the genderpossibilities of the female characters, which uphold women’s freedom, agency, thinking, feeling, creation, narration, and expression in the making of herstory –indeed, everywoman’s potential for change and transformation, and to become more than what society expects and demands from women. Materialized throughthe resistant and rebellious multitudinous female self and body, woman’s becoming and her gender possibilities ultimately interrogate, vex, and unsettle the entrenched sociocultural and politicized meanings, representations, and stereotypes of woman’s nature in the Southeast Asian context |
