- Abstract
The existence of social construction on societal culture guides that still embrace patriarchal values, sex and sexualities perpetually attached to gender roles. Such as men who are considered to have full rights to express sexualities and more actively engage in sex-related activities. Meanwhile, a woman is constructed otherwise, which is the gender that passively expresses her sexualities. Thus emerges stigmatization to a sexually-expressive woman for being unsuitable to the roles set by the expectation of society. Furthermore, sex activities and sexualities seem to be identical to sacred values. Along with massive technological development, this stigmatization starts to fade from perceptual changes pushed by mainstream media influences. One of them is brought by the wide use of dating apps as a common dating medium to bring together couples for various intentions, for instance, an open relationship that accentuates sexual need fulfillment. This has become the reason for initial gender roles and values. Methods implemented in this research is qualitative-phenomenology to study values shift caused by media influences on social life. The result of this research deepens the phenomenon of values shift that shows gender openness on expressing their sexualities contrary to gender-related stigmatizations.
