Rural culture, encompassing farming, autonomous, and ethical cultures, has shaped rural communities through residents’ practical engagement. The involvement of rural women in these activities is expanding, yet their contributions have not garnered adequate attention. The gendered habitus theory posits that women, through societal interactions, internalise gender-specific tendencies, behaviours, and attitudes, influencing the rural social and cultural fabric. This study explores how rural women's gender practices contribute to the preservation and evolution of rural culture and investigates the impediments posed by entrenched gendered habitus. The findings offer insights into gender equality, women's advancement, and rural modernisation in China
