A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
女权主义
Feminism
It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union.
是我们,人民;不是我们,白人男性公民;我们这些男性公民也不知道;但是我们,所有组成联邦的人民。
The world moves on so fast, and we lose all chance of being the women our mothers were; we lose all understanding of what shaped them.
世界瞬息万变,我们失去了成为母亲的所有机会;我们都不知道是什么塑造了他们。
Feminism is sort of like God. Many people profess to believe in it, but no one seems to be able to define it to everyone's satisfaction.
女权主义有点像上帝。许多人声称相信它,但似乎没有人能给它下一个令所有人满意的定义。
My feminism is humanism, with the weakest being those who I represent, and that includes many beings and life forms, including some men.
我的女权主义是人文主义,最弱的是我所代表的人,这包括很多生命和生命形式,包括一些男人。
One of the things about equality is not just that you be treated equally to a man, but that you treat yourself equally to the way you treat a man.
关于平等,其中一件事不只是你被平等地对待一个男人,而是你以平等的方式对待自己。
Does feminist mean large unpleasant person who'll shout at you or someone who believes women are human beings. To me it's the latter, so I sign up.
女权主义者是指那些对你大吼大叫的讨厌的人,还是指那些认为女人是人类的人?对我来说是后者,所以我注册了。
Feminism - the word - can give us a handle, a rallying point, a common ground, and help us build a bridge. Why not claim the gift of the word as a place to begin?
女权主义——这个词——可以给我们一个把柄,一个凝聚点,一个共同点,并帮助我们建立一座桥梁。为什么不以圣经的恩赐作为开始呢?
Our struggle today is not to have a female Einstein get appointed as an assistant professor. It is for a woman schlemiel to get as quickly promoted as a male schlemiel.
我们今天的奋斗目标不是让一位女爱因斯坦被任命为助理教授。女性的晋升速度应该和男性一样快。
What I know in life runs the gamut of the "feminist experience." The true meaning of feminism is this: to use your strong womanly image to gain strong results in society.
我在生活中所知道的是“女权主义的经验”。女权主义的真正含义是:利用你强大的女性形象在社会上获得强大的成果。
We all live in a time where we're supposed to have choices and how do we wrangle that and how do we make the best choices for ourselves and our families. It has nothing to do with feminism.
我们都生活在这样一个时代,我们应该有选择,我们应该如何争论,我们应该如何为自己和家人做出最好的选择。这与女权主义无关。
It is the woman - nearly always - in spite of all the advances of modern feminism, who still takes responsibility for the bulk of the chores, as well as doing her paid job. This is true even in households where men try to be unselfish and to do their share.
尽管现代女权主义取得了诸多进步,但女性仍然要承担大部分家务,还要做有报酬的工作。即使是在男人试图无私奉献的家庭中也是如此。
Women do not have to sacrifice personhood if they are mothers. They do not have to sacrifice motherhood in order to be persons. Liberation was meant to expand women's opportunities, not to limit them. The self-esteem that has been found in new pursuits can also be found in mothering.
如果女性是母亲,她们不必牺牲人格。他们不必为了成为人而牺牲母性。解放的目的是扩大妇女的机会,而不是限制她们。在新的追求中发现的自尊也可以在养育子女中找到。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
People have been writing premature obituaries on the women's movement since its beginning.
自女权运动开始以来,人们就在过早地撰写有关该运动的讣告。
All movements go too far.
所有的动作都太过分了。
Feminism hasn't failed, it's just never been tried.
女权主义并没有失败,只是从来没有尝试过。
Men, their rights, and nothing more; women, their rights, and nothing less.
人,他们的权利,仅此而已;妇女,她们的权利,仅此而已。
No one can argue any longer about the rights of women. It's like arguing about earthquakes.
没有人能再为妇女的权利争论下去了。这就像争论地震一样。
I think of feminism as a socially just and imaginative world.
我认为女权主义是一个社会公正和充满想象力的世界。
