Beauvoir berpendapat bahwa dengan bekerja wanita dapat kembali menghidupkan autentitasnya dan pernikahan bukanlah hal yang dapat dijadikan karir bagi wanita.

This research is a type of qualitative research that focused on the actual normative problem, namely the phenomenon of single career to be analyzed philosophically. Qualitative data is processed from the literature and direct observation. The data is then compiled so that a common thread can be drawn from the phenomenon to be studied. Then the data was analyzed using imone de Beauvoir's theory of existential feminism. The data is then classified and abalyzed by the researcher. Then the researcher draws the conclusion. The results of the research are in the form of dexcriptions, historical continuity, and interpretations. This study resulted in two conclusions. First, single career women reprsent their autonomy by working and not getting married. The choice to become a single career that requires women to only work in the domestic sphere and also marry at a mature age. Single career women destroy this standardization with their awarness of subjectivity so that they can choose life choices according to what they want. Second, if the phenomenon of single career women is examined through Simone de Beauvoir's existential feminism, single career women have represented one way of liberating women's otherness. Beauvoir argues that by working women can revive their authenticity and marriage is not something that can used as a career women. So that requires women to only work in the domestic sphere. Single career women is a development of women's emancipation. Women who consciously make their choice to work and not get married, are represnetative of existential feminism.
