Abstrakt
Artykuł przedstawia intersekcjonalną analizę sytuacji kobiet transpłciowych w Korei Południowej, szczególną uwagę skupiając na zwolnieniu przez Ministerstwo Obrony Narodowej w 2021 roku pierwszej transpłciowej żołnierki, Hee-soo Byun, która krótko po zwolnieniu popełniła samobójstwo. Na podstawie założeń koreańskiego feminizmu oraz feministycznego skupienia na intersekcjonalności (w ramach trzeciej fali feminizmu) badanie zwraca uwagę na przenikające się czynniki tożsamości płciowej, obowiązku służby wojskowej oraz regulacji instytucjonalnych, które przyczyniają się do marginalizowania i niewłaściwego traktowania osób transpłciowych. Artykuł analizując wielowymiarowe wyzwania, w obliczu których stają transpłciowe kobiety w Korei Południowej, podkreśla złożoną dynamikę dyskryminacji biorąc jednocześnie pod uwagę wyjątkowy kulturowy i społeczno-polityczny kontekst. Tekst ma na celu omówienie istniejącego stanu badań w zakresie praw osób transpłciowych, równości płciowej i aktywizmu feministycznego w Korei Południowej, jak i podzielenie się spostrzeżeniami na potrzeby przyszłych dyskusji, rozwiązań systemowych oraz działań podejmowanych w kierunku promowania inkluzywności i równych szans dla osób transpłciowych w i poza służbą wojskową.
