Abstract

Based on geographical location, West Java is the buffer zone of the capital. This condition makes it easier for West Java women to obtain information including gender development and access to education as well as information about the legislative membership of the members. Various studies reveal that even though the state has given women the right to sit in parliament, this has never been fulfilled. This article reveals how the voting behavior of West Javanese women is viewed from gender geography. The study was conducted over three months involving five families interviewed. The result is that geographical conditions do not affect the views of Sundanese women that the husband is more important, so in determining the choice of candidates is dominated by the husband. Likewise in terms of work, the average Sundanese woman has two main tasks namely raising children and making a living. This is in accordance with Sundanese proverb “awewe dulang tinande” (women must follow their husbands).
