DRAFT ⭑ OUTLINE

I plan to critically explore the social stigma and misogyny linked to feminism and the LGBTQIA+ community in Taiwan. In 2015, women in Taiwan were derogatorily labeled as "Sow" and “Feminism buffet,” with some people mockingly calling themselves "Sow believers."

Additionally, I want to share my personal perspectives and experiences as a non-binary queer Asian, living in both Taiwan and the Netherlands. I will also collect stories from others within these communities to build a broader understanding.

The focus of my exploration will revolve around three key points:


  • Why were women in Taiwan called “Sow” and associated with the term “Feminism buffet,” and what has changed in the years since?


  • What are the unique perspectives, experiences, and challenges faced by non-binary Asians living in Taiwan and the Netherlands?


  • Why is it so important for me to delve into these issues? How are these topics personally significant, and what is the relationship between them and my own identity?
