Discrimination often occurs against women. Discrimination against women is reflected in Javanese novels as well. Through feminist literary criticism, this paper is focused on describing the problem of how discrimination is experienced by women and how women try to fight this discrimination. The analysis of these two problems uses a qualitative approach. Sources of research data are novels published between 2011 and 2020. Data collection was obtained through library studies, both text and context data. Data analysis using content analysis. The results of the analysis show that there are two discriminations experienced by women, namely sexual harassment and women’s subordination. Both discriminations are motivated by the existence of a patriarchal culture that causes injustice to women. The resistance was carried out by women by: first, against physical and verbal sexual harassment. Second, fight the existing stereotypes by doing things that will be change the stereotypes. Women experienced this remodeled domestication by going out of town to earn a living.
