There are a lot of critics against sinetron, as it shows traditional role of
men and women, good and bad. But Indonesia s soap opera or sinetron tend to
shows women as violence doers and men have limited power toward her. Women do
violence in the name of love and family. Regarding the powerful iconic ability,
sinetron has potential to educate and to disseminate ways to solve contemporary
