    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION A. Background of the Study People as long as their lives always get in touch with other person or their society. That is why people cannot avoid problems between their society and even with them selves. Problem will exist when there is a discrepancy between their present state and their perceived goal state and there is no readily apparent way to get from one to other. They sometimes have experiences in sadness, happiness, hesitation, and anxiety. Anxiety is one psychological problem. Anxiety can be a nightmare for some individual. Anxiety may occur when one individual feels his society no to treat him as an individual who has right to decide what he or she wants to express his or her feeling. Instead he or she pushes to speak. Anxiety is an unpleasant emotional experience similar but not identical to feelings of nervousness, worry, agitation, or panic (Burger, 1986:59). Under the pressure of excessive anxiety, the ego is sometimes forced to take extreme to relieve the pressure. These measures are called defense mechanism. In general, defense mechanism serves the useful purpose of defending the ego against the pain of anxiety. Although they are normal and universally used when carried to an extreme they lead to compulsive, repetitive, and even neurotic behavior. The establishment and maintenance of defense 1 2 mechanism require a consist expenditure of energy any person who elaborates them has little psychic energy left to satisfy id impulses. Defense mechanism deals directly with instinctual demands and defense itself against the anxiety (Feist, 1983:33). Defense mechanism is unconscious process to protect someone from anxiety.

It examines the cultural legibility of the open secret of his sexuality.
