: In this qualitative study we explored how young women living in Sweden with ethnic and cultural roots in the Middle East and East Africa comply with or resist so-called honour norms and how they perceive that these norms affect their living conditions. : In depth interviews were performed with 14 young women. The majority were between 21 and 32 years of age with a mean age of 24. All interviews were transcribed verbatim and a grounded theory approach was used. To reflect the diversity in women's experiences, the grounded theory approach was conducted from a feminist perspective to transform women's personal narratives to a larger social context. : We analysed the core category "Honorable women in becoming" as the central emerging phenomenon related to categories about structural and individual control of women, the women's adjustment and resistance, and the continuum of severe consequences and violence that they experienced in their struggle for autonomy. : Simone de Beauvoir's feminist theory about women as "the other" was an inspiration and gave us valuable input to highlight women's experiences and situations from a perspective of gender, power, and oppression.
在这项定性研究中，我们探讨了生活在瑞典、具有中东和东非文化根源的年轻女性如何遵守或抵制所谓的荣誉规范，以及她们如何看待这些规范影响她们的生活条件。我们对 14 名年轻女性进行了深入访谈。大多数人年龄在 21 至 32 岁之间，平均年龄为 24 岁。所有访谈都逐字记录下来，并采用扎根理论方法。为了反映女性经历的多样性，扎根理论方法从女性主义视角出发，将女性的个人叙事转化为更大的社会背景。我们分析了核心范畴“成长中的可敬女性”，这是与女性结构性和个体控制、女性的调整和反抗以及她们在争取自主权的过程中经历的严重后果和暴力的连续性等范畴相关的中心新兴现象。西蒙娜·德·波伏娃关于女性是“他者”的女性主义理论给了我们灵感，为我们提供了有价值的思路，从性别、权力和压迫的角度突出女性的经历和处境。
