Pembingkaian Peran Ayah dan Sosialisasi Gender: Analisis Konten TikTok @pak_ancaa

Abstract

This study critically analyzes the framing linking fatherlessness to non-normative "boti" identities within Indonesian TikTok content. Employing critical content analysis informed by Framing Theory, it deconstructs viral narratives asserting a direct causal connection between father absence and "boti" development. Findings reveal these digital narratives grossly oversimplify complex psychosocial dynamics into deterministic, monocausal explanations. This simplistic framing reinforces traditional patriarchal norms regarding paternal roles and actively perpetuates harmful stereotypes and stigma against marginalized gender/sexual minorities. Analysis of user interactions highlights TikTok's ambivalent role: amplifying stigmatizing discourse while also enabling limited counter-narratives challenging the premise. The research underscores TikTok's potent influence in disseminating reductive popular psychology. It concludes by stressing the crucial need for enhanced digital media literacy and promoting nuanced, inclusive representations of family structures and gender diversity to combat online misinformation and systemic stigma.
