After its heyday in the 1980s, contemporary feminism, mainly covering gender studies and sexology, entered the stage of stagnation in the mid-1990s and has remained there ever since. This paper intends to reveal the truth beneath patriarchal discourse and ponder over the paradoxical relations between “born a woman” and “becoming a woman” by revisiting the essentialist discourse within the contemporary context. Specifically, the paper aims to illustrate two questions. Firstly, it depicts the “awkward status” of body writing and gender system used in women’s literature. Moreover, writings by a female author not only present such an “awkward status” but also raise some critical thought. The paper explains the text titled Mother, by Hitomi Kanehara, and analyzes the depictions of physical experiences (including sex, childbirth and parenting process) that seem to be a natural desire but are actually a mix of gender effect and female bodies. In this book, the heroine appears as a novelist, and her physical experience is re-written by the character itself. This may be regarded as a disruption which deconstructs the repression of women brought about by the gender system.
