Anne Erno's works are based on personal memories and female intimate experiences, aiming to reveal and change reality, with a feminist sociological color. Her works focus on women's experiences, speak up for vulnerable groups, and provide profound insights into social history. Domestic and foreign scholars have paid attention to its sociological writing characteristics, mainly using Bourdieu's sociological theory for research. Canadian scholar Dorothy Smith's sociological theory of women can provide a more thorough analysis of Erno's writing characteristics, criticize the traditional sociological approach of excluding female subjectivity experience, focus on the daily life world, and advocate understanding and changing the world from a female perspective. Erno's latest work "Young Men" not only recalls personal experiences, but also outlines the true face of social history, criticizes social issues such as gender and class discrimination, and highlights the sociological significance of women's writing. This article will use Smith's sociological perspective on women as theoretical support to explore the sociological characteristics of women in Erno's writing.
Explored the importance of women's private writing in French literature, particularly how Erno's "Young Men" reveals women's private experiences through autobiographical narratives. The chapter emphasizes the unique position of women's bodies and desires in literary creation, citing Sisoulli's concept of "female writing" and the popularity of private texts in French literature.

Dorothy Smith's viewpoint is used to emphasize the importance of women's daily life experiences, especially sexual experiences, in understanding society. The chapter also discusses the secrecy and shame of sex in society, as well as how Erno eliminated these concepts through writing and fought for women's sexual freedom. In addition, the chapter also covers private experiences such as abortion and childbirth, revealing the situation of women in society.

Explored Dorothy Smith's sociological research on women, particularly her exposure of power dominance and ruling relationships in daily life. Smith was influenced by Foucault's critique of "power/knowledge" and expanded discourse analysis, pointing out that men have absolute power in "discourse" while the voices of women and other marginalized groups are excluded. Women in literary works are often forced to become objects of male gaze and domination. Erno adopts a female dominated narrative style in "Young Men", depicting men with women as the main focus, challenging the traditional male dominated mainstream discourse system, and promoting the awakening and self liberation of female subjectivity. The title of the work "Young Man" implies that male characters are objects that are recalled and written, presented through the perspective of "me". Smith believed that the root of women's oppression lies in objectified knowledge and discourse, namely mainstream knowledge and discourse dominated by men. Young Men "revolves around Erno's memories, and the female centered narrative style is" inverted "compared to the traditional male perspective, with characteristics of anti male gaze. When the female perspective and position become dominant, women gain the right to speak out actively and establish their subject status. Erno's narrative style endows female characters with absolute discourse authority, suppressing the discourse power of male characters and making them the objects of gaze and speech. In this relationship, 'I' holds absolute discourse power, and the relationship between 'I' and male college students is entirely defined by 'I'. Erno is rational and calm in this relationship, and she believes that it can be viewed from the perspective of interests. She considers herself as the 'ruling class', while male college students are the' objects' of domination. Erno's description of the living habits of male college students unabashedly reveals their shortcomings, revealing the most authentic appearance of most men in society. Erno uses "I" as the main theme to reminisce, describing a female dominated and male dominated love relationship from a female perspective, encouraging women to break free from gender oppression. This "inverted" narrative is an important force in constructing a female discourse system and subject identity, which can achieve the goal of countering mainstream discourse by re evaluating and reversing the derogatory discourse, knowledge, and subjectivity of mainstream discourse. Erno's narrative style echoes Smith's proposition that "women should be in an 'active' position in their world," highlighting the awakening of female writers' subjectivity and constituting a questioning and rebellion against patriarchal culture and male gaze.
In depth exploration of how Erno reveals the living conditions of the common people through material writing in "Young Men". Dorothy Smith's feminist sociological perspective was introduced, emphasizing that the material living conditions of individuals are the foundation of social knowledge. The role of material culture in literary works is discussed, pointing out that objects can participate in the construction of consciousness and identity, and reflect power relations. Erno portrayed the real life of the common people through detailed descriptions of objects, such as dilapidated home furnishings and impoverished living details, which became her tools for speaking out for the people. The objects in the work are not only evidence of the plight of life, but also reflect the expectations and harsh reality of the lower class people. Erno's writing style is calm and objective, not exaggerating suffering, but pursuing science and justice. Her writing not only focuses on the lives of ordinary people, but also criticizes social injustice, demonstrating her pursuit of changing the world through literature. Smith's viewpoint is cited, emphasizing the necessity of analyzing socio-economic issues from a female perspective. Erno's writing is a reflection of this feminist sociology, focusing on social issues and caring about social development.
Isabella Charbongier compared Erno to sociologists, believing that her works have sociological reflections, fill memory gaps, and reproduce personal and social historical realities. Erno considers himself the 'Bourdieu of literature', and his sociological writing features expanding sociological boundaries, including female perspectives and experiences. Young Men "exposes women's private experiences, criticizes gender and class discrimination, showcases the social and historical connotations of women's works, and highlights the sociological significance of women's writing.
