%X The paper shows the problem of the distorted image of motherhood and gender as institutions created by patriarchal society to marginalize women. The response to this is to be manifestations of micro-resistance undertaken by radical feminists. Based on the analysis of source texts, the author will try to show that being a mother is associated with social and political exclusion. Lack of respect and gender equality is the reason for taking the action of defiance, and therefore the attitude of disobedience.
