Abstract

Gender injustice is also often seen in the positioning of women in a short story. This study aims to explain the position of women and how women’s profiles are described as objects in the short story. This research is a qualitative study using the critical discourse analysis method of Sara Mills’s model with the perspective of feminism. The data source of beach girl short stories is Pramoedya Ananta. The result of this research is that women are positioned as objects. This is evident from every narration of events that occur in the story. Women’s profiles as objects are depicted as low education, tradition-bound, and living from poor families.
