Abstract

In the interweaving of political and social affairs, social forces have joined the political arena. Women are one of the most important social forces that can be a subject in the field of politics and power. But the possibility or refusal of this feature is very much influenced by their mentality towards this field. The purpose of this article is to investigate how women perceive and understand the political issue and build political subjectivity from their perspective. For this purpose, the theme analysis method and individual interview technique (35 people) and focus groups (4 groups of four people) of Tehrani women aged 25 years and above and with a bachelor's degree or higher and were selected by purposive sampling method were used. became. According to the results of this article, in response to the first question, there are four themes of gender stuttering in the political sphere, tension in the political sphere, gender alienation in the political sphere, and aversion to morality in the political arena, and in response to the second question, there are four themes of the sterile presence of women in the field of power, women As the seat of power square, the rejection of femininity in political subjectivity and the coordinates of female politics were extracted. Also, the results of the research indicate three important points: 1. The political issue of gender in Iranian society is a function of the political issue in its social totality. 2. Due to the interweaving of the political and gender issues in women's experience, it is not possible to understand women's political activism without gender sensitivities. 3. The centrality of men in political experience leads to the rejection of women's issues and experience in political relationships and disputes, and discouragement and boredom of women from the political sphere.
