About this book
Reviews
“This book is not just significant for women readers, but also Southeast Asian scholars and feminist scholars in general. … this book is still rich in analyzes of how heteronormative patriarchal countries uphold gender expectations and the concept of femininity in Southeast Asia.” (Azalia Muchransyah,Bijdragen tot de Taal-, Land- en Volkenkunde, Vol. 176 (2-3), 2020)
