There are many different versions of masculinity since it is a construct created by society based on the expectations placed on males. When it comes to what it means to be male or female in society, men usually define themselves as masculine, and women commonly define themselves as feminine. Masculinity in females, which is typically associated with men, can also be linked to women who, through the novel's protagonist Enola Holmes, symbolize the representation of female masculinity in The Enola Holmes Mysteries. The data is collected from dialogues and narration concerning female masculinity as well as the author’s critical position including the author’s ideology, the author’s perspective on female masculinity in the novel of Enola Holmes Mysteries. The findings reveal that there are five concepts of female masculinity that being represented. However, the form of female masculinity tends to become unrecognizable and often considered abnormal for its existence.
