哈利波特》中赫敏的扮演者、联合国妇女亲善大使艾玛•沃森在2014年9月20日纽约联合国总部为“他为她”运动举行的特别活动上的演讲。 Actress Emma Watson's plea for equality winsmen's support   Today we are launching a campaign called “He For She.”  I am reaching out to you because I need your help.  We want  to end gender inequality—and  to do  that we need everyone to be involved.    This is the first campaign of its kind at the UN: we want to try and galvanize  as many men and  boys as possible to be advocates ( 提 倡 者) for gender equality.   And we don’t  want to talk about it, but make sure it is tangible.(有形的)     今天,我们启动了一项名为“他为她”的运动。  我向你伸出手,因为我需要你的帮助。我们希望终结性别不平等——为此,我们需要所有人都参与其中。这是联合国同类运动中的第一项:我们希望努力并激励尽可能多的男人和男孩倡导性别平等。而且希望这(性别平等)不只是空谈,而是确确实实的看得见摸得着。   I was appointed six months ago and the more I have spoken about feminis m       the more I have  realized that fighting for womens rights has too often become synonymous with man-hating. If  there is one thing I know for certain, it is that this has to stop.    For the record, feminism by definition      is:“ The belief that men and women should have equal rightsand ( 人 权)  opportunities. It is the theory of the political, economic and social equality of the sexes.”   六个月前,我被任命为联合国妇女亲善大使。而随着我谈论女权主义越多,我越发现,“争取女性权益”太容易被当作是“憎恨男人”的同义词。如果说有一件事是我确实知道的,那就是,这样的误解必须停止。  必须郑重声明,女权主义的定义是:“相信男性和女性应该拥有平等权利和机会。它是性别间政治、经济和社会平等的理论。”   I started questioning gender-based assumptions    when at eight I was confused at being called “bossy,” because I wanted to direct the plays we would put on for our parents—but the boys were not.   When at 14 I started being sexualized by certain elements of the press.  When at 15  my girlfriends started dropping out of their sports teams because they didn’t want to  appear “muscly.”   When at 18 my male friends were unable to express their feelings.  8岁时,我开始质疑某些基于性别的假设。我不明白,为什ô我想在为家长上演的戏剧里担任导演,就会被说成“专横”,而男孩们则不会; 14岁时,我开始被ý体报道的某些元素性别化;

     15岁时,我的女性朋友们开始退出各自的运动队,因为她们不希望显得“肌肉发达”;   18岁时,我的男性朋友们无法表达他们的感受。   I decided I was a feminist and this seemed uncomplicated to me.  But my recent research has  shown me that feminism has become an unpopular word.   Apparently I am among the ranks of women whose expressions are seen  as too strong, too  aggressive, isolating, anti-men  unattractive  even.  Why has the world become such an uncomfortable one?   我认为自己是一名女权主义者,这(身份认定)对我来说并不难。但我最近的调查发现,女权主义已经成为一个不受欢迎的词。   显然,我成了那些言辞看起来过于强势、过于激进、孤立、反男性、不吸引人的女性行列中的一员。   为什ô这个世界如此令人不安?    I am from Britain and think it is right that  I am paid the same as my male counterparts.I think it is right that I should be able to make decisions about my own body.  I think it is right that  women be involved on my behalf  in the policies and decision-making of my life. I think it is   right that socially I am afforded the same respect as men.  But sadly I can say that   there is no one
