Gender sensitization of Indonesian women migrant protection at pre-departure stage; sexuality point of view
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explain what prospective female migrant workers experience at the pre-placement stage in terms of their sexuality. The sexuality of prospective migrant workers is the object of study. Indramayu Regency is one of the areas that contributes the most female migrant workers in West Java. The phenomenon of feminization of migration in Indramayu Regency is triggered by people's views on migrant workers, their belief in migration efforts carried out by women is considered unusual from other regional communities. Gender sensitization is a concept of gender awareness to people in all fields, migration is considered necessary gender awareness because the phenomenon of feminization of migration that is increasingly widespread needs to be minimized. The problem is analyzed with the framework of the concept of gender sensitization and enriched through the political theory of the female body Susan Bordo (1993).
