Summary
Penelitian ini berfokus pada proses ritual dari awal sampai akhir untuk memahami nilai seorang perempuan, proses ini tentu melibatkan peran dari dua pihak antara laki-laki dan pihak perempuan yang diwakilkan oleh masing-masing juru bicara sebagai media penghubung dua keluarga. Hal ini menjadi penting dilakukan untuk tetap menghidupkan budaya Tanimbar juga mengontrol posisi perempuan dan laki-laki yang semestinya tetap sama. Teori lain yang mendukung penelitian ini adalah teori feminisme postmodern yang awalnya mendapatkan suara dari kaum feminis Prancis seperti Luce Irrigaray, Julia Kristeva, dan Helene Cixovus yang menghasilkan karya dari tafsir psikoanalisis Jacques Lacan, teori feminisme postmodern menjelaskan bahwa identitas feminis dibentuk dari sebuah pengkisahan yang membebaskan kaum feminis untuk menciptakan sebuah budaya tertentu, Feminisme postmodern menolak narasi atau wacana yang cenderung melebihkan satu pihak, seperti cerita laki-laki tentang masyarakat yang mengabaikan posisi dan pengalaman perempuan;adanya kesetaraan (Yukesti, 2015)
