- This is a qualitative research on the text produced by women readers particularly the fans of Harry Potter novel, that is conducted to discover their reception to the novel through their works named slash fiction. Slash fiction is a genre of fan fiction, namely fictions written by fans of certain text and usually uploaded in the internet. The writing of slash fiction does not correspond to the source text, due to its focus on same sex relationship between male characters portrayed in the source text as heterosexual characters. More specifically, this research is an endeavour to figure out how the women attempt to redefine masculinities in cyber space through the portrayal of main characters in their slash fictions. The object of this research includes five slash fictions written and uploaded in www.fanfiction.net by five women as fans of Harry Potter novel. The fictions are furthermore analysed using Norman Fairclough�s Critical Discourse Analysis. With reference to the research findings obtained from data analysis, it is concluded that the women readers, fans of Harry Potter novel who redefine masculinities in cyber space through the main characters in their slash fictions, offer subversive ideas towards the concept of hegemonic masculinity. The ideas are revealed through their definition on men�s body, sexual activity, as well as role and behaviour. In cyber space, it is potential that the women generate a counter of discourse towards the dominant ideology due to the fact that cyber space offers them more freedom and less control than does the offline world. Apart from this, research findings reveals that they are not totally capable to liberate themselves from the dominant ideology in conjunction with its discourse of hegemonic masculinity, albeit the anonymity and freedom offered by cyber space within which they reconstruct such concept.
