中文摘要

Even though gender equality in Taiwan is considered extremely advanced compared to other Asian countries, leisure constraints and leisure inequality remain the core issue affecting the leisure life of Taiwanese women. This study examined Taiwanese women's leisure constraints and their relationship to their gender identity, through in-depth interviews with 23 participants. By applying the framework of intersectional and interlocking analysis to explore the leisure experience of Taiwanese women, the findings show that multiple leisure constraints are primarily rooted in Taiwanese socio-cultural contexts and their subjective ideologies synchronously. By constructing ＂womanhood＂ socially and culturally, gender roles, social expectations, and caring ethics influence women's leisure opportunities, patterns, and attitudes. Taiwanese married women rationalize gender norms through a ＂system justification＂ process, which pushes them back to traditional gender roles that greatly limit their leisure space, and which sabotages their intentions to pursue leisure. Nevertheless, the findings also illustrate that leisure can be a gateway for women to gain relative freedom in their lives.
英文摘要

台灣的性別平等雖在亞洲國家中被認為是非常進步，但性別角色對女性造成的休閒阻礙和不平等，仍是研究台灣女性休閒生活的核心問題。本研究通過對23名女性的深度訪談，研究台灣女性的休閒阻礙以及與女性身份的關係。應用交叉性分析的架構來探索台灣女性的休閒體驗。研究結果顯示，台灣女性的休閒阻礙主要同時植根於台灣的社會文化背景和個人的主觀意識形態。通過社會和文化構建下的「女性」，性別角色、社會期望和關懷倫理影響了女性的休閒機會、模式和態度。台灣已婚女性以「體系正當化」方式將性別規範合理化，從而將她們推回到傳統的性別角色，這極大地限制了已婚女性的休閒空間，並影響已婚女性追求休閒的意圖。然研究也表明，休閒可以成為女性在生活中獲得相對自由的途徑。
