Abstract
The research on gender injustice in Sasti Gotama's novel Korpus Uterus focuses on gender injustice against women. The purpose of this study is to identify the types of gender injustice that occur in the novel as a reflection of the problems faced by women in the real world and to determine the types of resistance carried out by female characters to maintain their own existence. The main data source of this study comes from Sasti Gotama's novel Korpus Uterus, which is analyzed using Simone de Beauvoir's existentialist feminist perspective and analyzed using descriptive qualitative methods. The results of the study show that female characters face gender injustice such as marginalization, subordination, societal stereotypes that limit their movement, and violence against women. The resistance shown by female characters in the novel is by women working, working as intellectual agents, working to achieve social transformation, and rejecting their otherness. Therefore, it is hoped that this study will provide a better understanding of how women can be part of society.
