摘要

这篇文章是一项更大研究的一部分,该研究考虑了孟加拉国中产阶级女性在在线和离线环境中如何表现性别,她们使用的话语类型,以及她们所参与的跨语言资源。在发展我们的论点时,我们首先讨论了关于南亚妇女的殖民地和后殖民地话语。这些历史话语仍然存在于当代社会,并塑造了性别期望和性别行为。四名孟加拉国职业女性(年龄28-32岁)参与了这项更大规模的研究,该研究将数字民族志与访谈相结合。在这篇论文中,我们关注一个参与者(称为卡特里娜飓风)。我们详细讨论了一次脸书互动,卡特里娜和她的朋友们开玩笑地颠覆了传统上与南亚女性有关的话语;性别期望受到挑战,各种符号资源被用于狂欢式的反抗表演。在此之后,我们考虑采访数据,它不那么好玩和跨语言。在采访中,对性别规范的抵制以不同的方式表达,不是一种嬉戏的集体参与,不时夹杂着笑声,而是一种斗争和妥协。因此,我们认为,对父权制性别规范的抵制既普通又非同寻常:它在日常意义上是普通的,它在借鉴了高度创造性的语言形式,并植根于追溯到历史的斗争中,同时在此时此地制造了令人不安的焦虑和冲突的经历,这是非同寻常的。

The ordinariness and extraordinariness of resistance: Young Bangladeshi professional women doing/undoing gender

This article is part of a larger study that considers how middle-class Bangladeshi women perform gender in online and offline contexts, the kinds of discourses they draw on, and the translingual resources that they engage with. In developing our argument, we first discuss colonial and post-colonial discourses about South Asian women. These historical discourses are still present in contemporary society and shape gender expectations as well as gender performativity. Four Bangladeshi professional women (aged 28–32) were part of the larger study, which combined digital ethnography with interviews. In this paper, we focus on one participant (called Katrina). We discuss, in detail, one Facebook interaction, where Katrina and her friends playfully subvert the discourses that are traditionally associated with South Asian women; gender expectations are challenged and a variety of semiotic resources are used in the carnivalesque performance of resistance. Following this, we consider the interview data which is less playful and translingual. In the interview resistance against gender norms is articulated differently, not as a playful collective engagement, punctuated with laughter, but as struggle and compromise. We argue that resistance to patriarchal gender norms is thus both ordinary and extraordinary: it is ordinary in the sense that it is everyday, and it is extraordinary in that it draws on highly creative forms of languaging and is embedded in struggles that reach back into history, while at the same time create unsettling anxieties and conflicted experiences in the here-and-now.
