ABSTRACT This study begins with questions about the politics of menstruation that have been unspoken and neglected issues in Korean feminist history. Menstruation first appeared in social discourse in Korean society, raised by a few women’s groups in the midst of the new feminist movement. This study examines three activities of the movement: the “Menstruation Festival,” “Pad Up–Down Campaign,” and “Bloodsisters Solidarity” for evaluation as historical cases of Korean menstrual activism, 1999–2012. It considers the strategies and differences in sociocultural contexts wherein concerns about menstruation converge with the feminist agenda. Characteristics of menstrual activism in Korea surfaced in issues pertaining to women’s health advocacy, Young Feminist cultural feminism, radical feminism and eco-feminism surrounding the “alternative menstrual pad” movement. These processes of the menstrual activism of grassroots women’s groups are examined here and reveal that the dominance of consumerism and the androcentric, gender-discriminatory culture are related to the gender politics of menstruation in South Korea.

韩国的女权主义月经运动(1999-2012)

摘要 本研究从关于月经政治的问题开始,这些问题在韩国女权主义历史上一直是未被提及和被忽视的问题。月经首先出现在韩国社会的社会话语中,由新女权运动中的少数妇女团体提出。本研究考察了该运动的三项活动:“月经节”、“垫高运动”和“血姐妹团结”,以评估 1999-2012 年韩国月经运动的历史案例。它考虑了社会文化背景中的策略和差异,其中对月经的担忧与女权主义议程相融合。韩国月经行动主义的特征在与妇女健康倡导、青年女权主义文化女权主义、围绕“替代月经垫”运动的激进女权主义和生态女权主义。草根妇女团体的月经活动的这些过程在这里得到检验,并揭示了消费主义的主导地位和以男性为中心的性别歧视文化与韩国月经的性别政治有关。
