N2  - The oppression of women is a worldwide phenomenon that remains unresolved. One of the reasons why women are oppressed is because of the patriarchal culture. Patriarchal culture upholds the gender gap in society, so the patriarchal culture creates a phenomenon of toxic masculinity where men are considered superior and powerful. Hence, women are always in second place. Women are the losers because they do not have the same freedoms and rights to life as men. When women want to fight for the value of their lives, they are seen as out of nature and as rebels, so they have to accept oppression and violence because they try to get out of the shackles of patriarchy. Re from the novel Re:, an Indonesian woman, and Firdaus from the novel Woman at Point Zero, an Egyptian woman, are examples of women who resist. These two women experienced oppression and violence from society because they fought for a decent life. Based on the radical feminist point of view, this study found three main problems resulting from the patriarchy that harm Re and Firdaus: women are born without freedom in determining the direction of life, women cannot fight, and selling women through prostitution, where the root of the oppression they experience is gender. The rules of patriarchy are a source of injustice and losses that Re and Firdaus have to accept as women with weak social and economic status. The researcher found that the two women from different countries experienced the same oppression due to patriarchal culture. Using a literary comparison technique, this study was able to describe the impact of future trauma that Re and Firdaus had to experience due to the bullying they had experienced since childhood. The research shows that regardless of the country's background, women are still creatures vulnerable to oppression because of the effects of gender inequality created by patriarchal culture.
