艾玛沃特森联合国演讲稿《 He For She 》
Today we are launching a campaign called “HeForShe。”
今天，我们启动了一项名为“他为她”的运动。
I am reaching out to you because I need your help. Wewant to end gender inequality—and to do that we need everyone to be involved。
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。
This is the first campaign of its kind at the UN: wewant to try and galvanize as many men and boys as possible to be advocates forgender equality. And we don’t just want to talk about it, but make sure it istangible。
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 havespoken about feminism the more I have realized that fighting for women’s rightshas too often become synonymous with man-hating. If there is one thing I knowfor certain, it is that this has to stop。
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。
For the record, feminism by definition is: “The beliefthat men and women should have equal rights and opportunities. It is the theoryof the political, economic and social equality of the sexes。”
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 ateight I was confused at being called “bossy,” because I wanted to direct theplays we would put on for our parents—but the boys were not。
8岁时，我开始质疑某些基于性别的假设。我不明白，为什么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。
When at 14 I started being sexualized by certainelements of the press。
14岁时，我开始被媒体报道的某些元素性别化;
When at 15 my girlfriends started dropping out oftheir sports teams because they didn’t want to appear “muscly。”
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”;
When at 18 my male friends were unable to expresstheir feelings。
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 seemeduncomplicated to me. But my recent research has shown me that feminism hasbecome an unpopular word。
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。
Apparently I am among the ranks of women whoseexpressions are seen as too strong, too aggressive, isolating, anti-men and,unattractive。
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。
Why is the word such an uncomfortable one?
为什么这个词如此令人不安?
I am from Britain and think it is right that as awoman I am paid the same as my male counterparts. I think it is right that Ishould be able to make decisions about my own body. I think it is right thatwomen be involved on my behalf in the policies and decision-making of mycountry. I think it is right that socially I am afforded the same respect asmen. But sadly I can say that there is no one country in the world where allwomen can expect to receive these rights。
我来自英国，我认为身为女性，我应该和男性同行获得一样的报酬。我认为我应该自己为自己的身体做决定。我认为应该有女性代表我参与政治，以及我的国家的决策制定。我认为在社会上，我应该和男性获得相同的尊重。但遗憾的是，世界上没有一个国家能使所有的女性都能获得上述权利。
No country in the world can yet say they have achievedgender equality。
世界上没有一个国家能说，他们已经实现了性别平等。
These rights I consider to be human rights but I amone of the lucky ones. My life is a sheer privilege because my parents didn’tlove me less because I was born a daughter. My school did not limit me becauseI was a girl. My mentors didn’t assume I would go less far because I might givebirth to a child one day. These influencers were the gender equalityambassadors that made who I am today. They may not know it, but they are theinadvertent feminists who are. And we need more of those. And if you still hatethe word—it is not the word that is important but the idea and the ambitionbehind it. Because not all women have been afforded the same rights that Ihave. In fact, statistically, very few have been。
这些权利，我认为是每个人都该享有，然而(事实是)我只是众多幸运儿中的一个。我的生活是完完全全的特例，因为我的父母没有因为我生为女儿而减少对我的爱，我的学校没有因为我是女孩而限制我，我的导师没有因为我将来可能要生孩子而认为我会走不远。这些影响了我的人，都是性别平等大使，是他们造就了今天的我。他们也许并不知道，但他们是无心的女权主义者。而我们现在，则需要更多这样的人。所以，如果你仍然憎恨这个词——重要的不是这个词，而是它背后的想法和抱负。因为并不是所有女性都能够享有我所拥有的权利。事实上，从统计数据看，真的非常少。
In 1997, Hilary Clinton made a famous speech inBeijing about women’s rights. Sadly many of the things she wanted to change arestill a reality today。
1997年，希拉里克林顿在北京做了一个关于女性权益的著名演讲。很遗憾，很多她希望改变的事实今天仍存在。
But what stood out for me the most was that only 30per cent of her audience were male. How can we affect change in the world whenonly half of it is invited or feel welcome to participate in the conversation?
我注意到，听众里只有30%是男性。当只有世界上的一半的人参与并融入这场对话时，我们怎么可能做出影响世界的改变?
Men—I would like to take this opportunity to extendyour formal invitation. Gender equality is your issue too。
男人们——我希望利用这个机会正式的邀请你们加入。性别平等也与你们有关。
Because to date, I’ve seen my father’s role as aparent being valued less by society despite my needing his presence as a childas much as my mother’s。
