台灣社會歷經了深層父權資本雙系統的結構互作用力改變,「台灣新女性」角色油然而生。過去在父權資本雙系統的影響下,女性被視為輔助與依附的角色,但後期性別平權意識興起,逐漸弱化台灣的父權制度,伴隨資本主義的持續擴張,女性取得更多的自主權,新女性社經地位日益提升,台灣舊父權資本雙系統下所建立的社會結構與性別權力關係已產生動搖,並持續受到新女性的質疑和挑戰。從舊父權資本鬆動變化過程中蛻變重生的新女性,在面對未及跟上父權資本變化的性別角色認知與婚姻市場時,遂出現新女性單身人數增多的現象。
The profound social bistructure of the patriarchal capitalism in Taiwan endures a systemic change along with their mutual interactions. The role of “New Taiwanese Women” appears in the new stage. Women used to be seen as subordinate to men under the influence of old patriarchal capitalism. When equal rights for men and women arose in Taiwan, the “old patriarchy” weakened. At the same time, the expansion of capitalism enables women to be more independent. Hence, the social economic status of new Taiwan women rises. Gender-power relationship under the old patriarchal capitalism transforms and it has been continuously challenged by new Taiwan women. However, some outdated gender role expectation still exists and traditional marriage market does catch up with the development path of new Taiwan women. Therefore, the new Taiwan women would rather keep single and their number increases.
