초록
월경은 생물학적 특성을 바탕으로 하는 육체적 경험일 뿐 아니라 한 사회의 젠더 체계가 작동하는 사회적 관계, 지식의 체계, 문화적 해석에 영향을 받는 몸 경험이다. 월경은 한편으로 생물학적 섹스로서 여성의 생리적 현상으로 ‘통제할 수 없는 몸’에 대한 개인적 위생 관리의 문제로 치부되면서, 다른 한편 월경 혐오와 월경 수치심은 사회적 젠더로서 여성의 정체성과 행위를 구성하는 사회 문화적 믿음과 실천과 결부되어 있다. 본 연구는 집단면접을 통해 아시아 지역에서 살고 있는 여성들의 월경 경험의 맥락으로서 월경 문화의 차이와 공통성을 살펴본다. 월경 관리의 핵심인 생리대의 사용이 단지 개인의 취향에 따른 선택이 아니라 월경하지 않는 몸으로 보이기 위한 월경 패싱 전략의 기술이며 월경하는 몸을 둘러싼 젠더화된 사회문화적 실천임을 드러내고자 한다.
Abstract
Menstruation is not only a physical experience based on biological characteristics, but also a bodily experience that is influenced by social relations, the system of knowledge, and cultural interpretation in which a gender system operates. While menstruation is regarded as a problem of personal hygiene management of ‘uncontrollable leaking body’ as a biological phenomenon of women, menstrual taboo and menstrual shame are gendered social practices that constitute women’s identity and behavior associated with cultural norms on menstruation. The purpose of this study is to reveal the gendered socio-cultural practices surrounding menstruation, menstrual body and management focusing on the choices of Asian women to use the menstrual product in the context of the menstrual culture in their society. The data in this study are based on group interviews of 17 women, in their 20s and 40s, from Asian countries who participated in the Ewha Global Empowerment Program(EGEP) held in 2014-2016 at Ewha Womans University, Seoul, Korea.
