The Review of Female's Intrasexual Competition of Birth and Motherhood in Digital Media

This comprehensive review employs a systematic literature review approach to explore female intrasexual competition in birth and motherhood within digital media. Literature was collected from databases such as Scopus, Google Scholar, and CNKI, using keywords like "intrasexual competition," "motherhood," "birth," "digital media," and "social media." Articles were selected based on their relevance to the intersection of intrasexual competition, birth, motherhood, and digital media. The review investigates contexts where intrasexual competition and discrimination occur, highlighting their relevance to womanhood and the impact of cultural norms on competitiveness in birth and parenting. The biological perspective reveals how childbirth and motherhood influence a woman's social standing, often leading to discrimination and competitiveness. Digital media introduces unique elements to this discourse, offering virtual communities for support and anonymity, while also posing challenges like misinformation and reinforcing stereotypes. Social media portrays an idealized image of motherhood, fostering inadequacy and increasing social pressure.
