ABSTRACT This essay considers the activist group FEMEN and the online reactions to their “International Topless Jihad Day” protests. Specifically, I analyze the vernacular discourses present in the Facebook group Muslim Women Against FEMEN and their counter-protests as they articulate their dissatisfaction with FEMEN’s imperialist feminism. I argue that online spaces can provide meaningful sites for Muslim women to reassert their agency alongside of, rather than despite of, their Muslim identity. Tensions over the boundaries of feminist activism help us understand how digital spaces can aid in developing a more capacious understanding of agency that actively decolonizes imperialist feminist politics.

穆斯林妇女反对FEMEN：在网络空间中主张代理

摘要本文讨论了激进分子FEMEN及其对“国际裸照圣战日”抗议活动的在线反应。具体来说，我分析了Facebook团体“反对FEMEN的穆斯林妇女”中的白话以及他们的反对抗议，因为他们表达了对FEMEN帝国主义女权主义的不满。我认为，在线空间可以为穆斯林妇女提供有意义的网站，让她们在拥有穆斯林身份的同时（而不是尽管如此）重申自己的代理机构。女权主义行动主义边界上的紧张局势有助于我们了解数字空间如何帮助人们更有效地理解主动消灭帝国主义女权主义政治的机构。
