培养女儿的目标到底是什么?女孩父母都该思考 ...

2015-11-28 橘子 小花生网

橘子:前几天遇到一个90后的小妹妹,快要大学毕业了,我问她,你想做什么?她说自己也不是很清楚,不过她父母对她的未来倒是蛮有想法的,希望她进一个比较稳定不错的体制内的单位,安安稳稳工作,然后 ......


我还遇到一个公司老板,女儿一直读很好的学校,现在国外留学。谈及他对女儿的期待,感觉这位老板爸爸的期待也是女儿能嫁个门当户对的人家,然后 ......


难道,这么些优秀的女孩,未来仅仅是这样的么?最近美国一个著名媒体评选出了一张全球“女性人物”名单,这些女性不光成就斐然,而且都有个性强烈的主张,非常自我,和我们传统中温顺乖巧的“好女孩”形象差得很远。


这些女性,你会介绍给自己的女儿,成为她的 Role Model (榜样)么?


今天,橘子从这张有五六十个人的单子里选出其中33位中国人比较熟悉的给大家看下,从她们的Quotes里我们也许能产生一些思考:


我培养女儿的目标到底是什么?我希望女儿成为什么样的人?一个女孩或女人,我希望她的人生走多远?


这里的意思,并不是说我们鼓励女孩、女人都成为事业第一的女强人,而是说,女孩、女人,都应该成为完整的自己,不应该让对女性的传统定义、世俗看法束缚人生的各种可能。橘子想说一句,不管是男人,还是女人,人生在世,能成就一些自己想做的事情,不管是什么,都是很不错的。女孩,女人,请都不要轻言放弃 ...


你对这个问题有什么看法,请来评论评论,文后有一个小调查,欢迎投票!

“I truly believe that women should be financially independent from their men. And let’s face it, money gives men the power to run the show. It gives men the power to define value. They define what’s sexy. And men define what’s feminine. It’s ridiculous.”


我认为女性应该争取财务自由,正是金钱给了男人定义世间一切的权力,我们要改变这种游戏规则 ...

8、Tavi Gevinson

96年出生的前卫杂志主编、演员

“I wanted to start a website for teenaged girls that was not kind of this one-dimensional strong character empowerment thing, because one thing that can be very alienating about a misconception of feminism is that girls then think that to be feminists, they have to live up to being perfectly consistent in their beliefs, never being insecure, never having doubts, having all the answers…and this is not true and actually, recognizing all the contradictions I was feeling became easier once I realized that feminism was not a rule book but a discussion, a conversation, a process.”

(当时)我最怕的事情发生了,这反而让我感到自由。我还有一个女儿,有一部老式打字机,有一个伟大的主意。所以我可以从最底部开始重启我的生活。


15、Emma Stone

美国新生代著名演员

“Confidence is the only key. I know a lot of people who aren’t traditionally ‘beautiful’ — not symmetrical or perfect-bodied or perfect-skinned. But none of that matters because all that shines through is their confidence, humor, and comfort with themselves. I can’t think of any better representation of beauty than someone who is unafraid to be herself.”

“I realized that very young — that a life where you don’t live to your full potential, or you don’t experiment, or you’re afraid, or you hesitate, or there are things you know you should do but you just don’t get around to them, is a life that I’d be miserable living, and the only way to feel that I’m on the right path is just to be true to myself, whatever that may be, and that tends to come with stepping out of something that’s maybe safe or traditional.”


我很年轻的时候就意识到,如果你不活出自己全部的潜力、不去实验和冒险,如果你害怕、犹豫、躲避,该做的事情没有去做,这样的生活会很糟糕;当我忠于自己的时候,我会知道我在做正确的事情。
