        abstract = {Masculinity is a male trait that is generally owned by men, while when
formed in females it is called female masculinity. This research used the novel The
Pearl That Broke That Its Shell as the main object. The novel tells how one of the
main characters named Shekiba changed from the previous feminine must be forced
to change to masculine (Bacha Posh) because of social compulsion. In addition, this
research also describes how processes and impacts are formed on Shekiba after
becoming masculine. This research uses qualitative methods and the Female
Masculinity theory by Judith Halberstam to reveal the image of Shekiba?s
masculinity, this theory also has the same concept of masculinity without men
explaining how masculinity can be formed in women. From the results of the
analysis, it is concluded that Shekiba?s masculinity is not innate but nurtured because
her masculinity is formed not from birth but formed by several other factors. The
masculinity shown by Shekiba is that she is tough, independent, courageous, strong,
and has a man-like appearance that makes her look more like a man. Shekiba's
masculinity is viewed from how society at that time viewed a person who can be said
to be masculine. The impact of masculinity that was forced to Shekiba feel lost in her
identity and made her feel like returning to normal life to become a more appreciated
woman.}
