Blending environmental movements with third-wave feminism formed
ecofeminism, which tied up the aims of the two movements. Ecofeminism
tries to trace the relationship between women and nature, either from an
essentialist approach or from a structuralist viewpoint, back to the age of
mythology. Women and their related affairs play an important role in
Shahrnoush Parsipour’s stories. Furthermore, in “Women without Men”,
thoughts and lives of female characters of the story are tied to nature, especially
to trees. Its climax is where the women of the story, in a traditional-minded
society, take initial steps to liberate themselves from any domination, become
conscious, and enter society. Employing a descriptive-analytic approach, this
study sought to understand men/women relationships, on the one hand, and
women/nature relation, on the other hand. The results show that women
become aware of their own femininity, their own body, and their society by
escaping the domination of patriarchal culture. But it is not mean complete
freedom from men. Their instinctive inclination to procreation returns them
to men. Although a few female characters who are not optimistic about men,
take different way which is joining nature and virgin birth; this is a way which
relates them to pristine nature and sacred mothers throughout history and
mythology. In this story, inappropriate relations of authoritarian men to
women and nature could be seen at the same time.
