中文摘要

     對女性而言,為了健康理由尋求醫療照護,經常是一種不愉快的經驗,尤其是被要求必須將被視為私領域的軀體袒露展示於專業規劃的公開空間中。以公共空間而言,醫療環境乃建構於女性的私領域活動之上,故對女性充滿了不安全感及危險性。為維繫社會對健康人體的需求,女性經常被要求將身體╱器官暴露於私領域外的公共空間。由於醫療體系對女性主體性的缺乏尊重,自決權的屏障限制了女性的健康需求,因此,醫療環境中父權特性專斷地扭曲了女性的主體性。本文擬思索女性在當今醫療環境場域中被擺佈的現象,藉由主體意識察覺之歷程,建構具性別敏感及性別尊重的新醫療環境。

英文摘要

     Seeking medical care is often an unpleasant experience for women, especially when they are asked to expose their body, which is normally regarded as a private sphere in the dominant public space. The medical environment, as a public space, is constructed above the private-sphere activities of women. This results in insecurity and danger for women. To maintain society's need for physical health, women are often requested to expose their bodies/organs in the specific public space outside their private sphere. Through lack of respect of women's autonomy, and a denial of the right to self-determination that marginalizes women's health needs, the patriarchal nature of the medical environment drastically distorts women's subjectivity. This article explores the manipulation of women's health in the contemporary medical system. Through awareness of women's subjectivity in the medical system, a new medical environment with gender sensitivity and gender respect needs to be constructed.
