The Gendered Deconstruction of Technology and the Female Body in Science Fiction Films from a Post-Human Perspective
2025
Overview
With the rapid development of digital information technology, artificial intelligence, computer technology, and biotechnology, science fiction movies have become an important medium for exploring the concepts of “posthumanism” and “cyborg”. In science fiction movies, cyborgs are endowed with multiple genders and social identities, especially in the presentation of female cyborgs, which reveal challenges and reflections on traditional gender binary oppositions. Based on feminist theory, deconstructing the construction and gendered path of female cyborgs in science fiction films can explore the duality of female cyborgs’ bodies in traditional gender power structures. Research has found that as the pre-factor of Seberg’s identity construction, the participation of technology has also been put into the gender discourse system. Despite the potential liberating power of cyborgs as a form of existence that transcends gender, the gender identity of female cyborgs is still subject to traditional patriarchal norms in a commercialized and male-dominated society, providing the possibility of re-examining the relationship between gender and body.
