| 總結: | The Chetti Melaka in Singapore form a small community which portrays itself to be set in its rich culture, rituals, language and values. This study seeks to understand how culture and gender role ideology are transmitted between mothers and daughters from this community. Using qualitative interviews, the results of this study discuss several issues such as the relationship between culture and gender, food as a gendered experience of cultural identity and the use of alternative variables to claim legitimate association with the ethnic group. The findings also point to the types of coping mechanisms used by both mothers and daughters to construct and negotiate their ethnic and gender identities. |
