Perempuan, Teknologi Digital, Teori Afek, Perasaan KolektifAbstract
Perkembangan teknologi komunikasi memungkinkan individu yang terpinggirkan dalam lingkungan sosial untuk mengekspresikan diri. Artikel ini menyoroti perilaku perempuan sebagai istri dan ibu sebagai individu yang terpinggirkan yang berbagi pengalaman dan menciptakan ekosistem dukungan melalui perantara platform percakapan online. Artikel ini berargumen bahwa platform percakapan digital menciptakan ruang alternatif untuk perawatan dan dukungan yang terbatas di ruang offline. Artikel ini mengumpulkan data menggunakan metode etnografi digital pada pengguna perempuan forum percakapan online di The AsianParent Indonesia. Artikel ini melibatkan perspektif feminis dan teori afek untuk memahami pengalaman tubuh perempuan sebagai bagian dari produksi pengetahuan representatif. Perpotongan antara perempuan, tubuh, dan teknologi digital menunjukkan bahwa pengalaman tubuh pribadi dapat membentuk ikatan kolektif melalui mobilisasi emosi yang dimediasi oleh teknologi digital. Berbicara dengan sesama perempuan secara virtual merupakan upaya untuk menemukan ruang aman bagi perempuan yang dibungkam dalam proses pengasuhan dan perawatan di ruang offline.
