摘　　要：Mainly applying gender studies to the analysis of Carson McCullers’s The Ballad of the Sad Cafe,with the body as the focus,this paper explores how the masculine Amelia is feminized for the purpose of resolving masculinity crisis embodied by Marvin Macy and Cousin Lymon,concluding that the culturally constructed normative sex and gender dichotomy operates by disciplining otherness,causing gender identification trouble and disempowerment.
