摘要

为了寻找与她们分享经验现实和生存挣扎的人,许多非自愿无子女的女性转向Instagram,参与尝试怀孕(TTC)交流的实践。通过数字存在的概念镜头,数字和在线被视为存在过渡的组成部分,我们利用十次采访和在线人种志来探索一些非自愿无子女妇女在技术和技术中经历的斗争。我们发现TTC沟通可以构成与非自愿无子女的状态达成协议。特别是,这项研究表明,对于非自愿没有孩子的女性来说,TTC沟通既是一个挣扎的场所,也是一个安全的空间,因为她们在一个存在的地形中过渡到非母性,在那里她们分享了一段亲密的旅程。

Existential vulnerability and transition: Struggling with involuntary childlessness on Instagram
Abstract In their efforts to find others who share their experiential reality and existential struggle, many involuntarily childless women turn to Instagram to engage and participate in the practice of trying-to-conceive (TTC) communication. Through the conceptual lens of digital existence, where the digital and online are regarded as constitutive of existential transition, we draw on ten interviews and an online ethnography to explore some of the struggles that involuntarily childless women experience with and through technology. We find that TTC communication can be constitutive of coming to terms with the status of involuntary childlessness. In particular, this study illustrates that TTC communication, for involuntarily childless women, is both a site of struggle and a safe space as they transition to nonmotherhood in an existential terrain where they share an intimate journey.
