Abstract
Gender inequality remains a pressing social issue, particularly in the
division of roles between men and women. Among marginalized communities,
gender relations are further complicated by intersecting social and economic
pressures. This study examines gender role inequality within family life in the Aqu
Ada Community, Kupang, employing a qualitative phenomenological approach.
Data were gathered through in-depth interviews with 9 participants and analyzed
using Caroline Moser’s gender analysis framework. The findings reveal that women
experience a double burden, balancing work outside the home with full responsibility
for domestic tasks. These inequalities are entrenched by strong patriarchal cultural
norms. Economic hardship further exacerbates gender disparities, while male
dominance in household decision-making contributes to negative consequences for
women’s well-being. The study highlights the emergence of awareness and dialogue
among couples regarding the need for more equitable role-sharing, signaling the
potential for gradual transformation in gender relations within marginalized
contexts.
