so that the concept of violence promoted by Rifka Annisa general felt less accepted by
society. There are several concepts and ways of handling domestic violence were rejected by
most of community. Community of Cokrodiningratan especially men have their own
interpretation regarding domestic violence. Man�s subjectivity who had been considered
unimportant, in fact allows to reduce the number of domestic violence cases. The potential

community and economic demands. Actually that has been championed by the public, NGOs
and the government is not on target, they feel that the efforts of the concept of gender
equality or violence voiced by NGOs and the government can not be used for all levels of
society, as Indonesia has a diverse culture that can not be the same. When gender equality
promoted and applied in society are not followed by a change of mindset patriarchal society
which tends to make the acts of domestic violence remain. Because when there are few
people who changed and voice changes, they will be marginalized by the general public who
have not been able to accept the changes.
