Abstract

This thesis discusses the changes in the habits and behavior of a transgender woman in David Ebershoff’s The Danish Girl novel. This research aims to examine the changes in habits and behaviors experienced by the main character before and after becoming transgender. The writer also analyzes the change in the mindset of the main character from before and after being transgender in responding to the patriarchal values. This thesis uses the queer theory of J.J Gieseking and the radical feminist theory of Judith Butler. After analyzing The Danish Girl, I argue that there are significant changes in habits and behavior experienced of the main characters in; habits at work, at home, behaviors being among the society, and family. Ebershoff lucidly manages to show his readers that patriarchal societies’ discrimination against transgender people does not affect their effort to achieve their dreams. Their fight brings a good result; the transgender community was accepted by Denmark society. Keywords: Transgender, patriarchy, queer, feminist, gender discrimination.
