南希·史密斯：只要有一个女人

《只要有一个女人》

--南希·史密斯 1973年作

只要有一个女人觉得自己坚强因而讨厌柔弱的伪装

定有一个男人意识到自己也有脆弱的地方因而不愿意再伪装坚强

只要有一个女人讨厌再扮演幼稚无知的小姑娘

定有一个男人想摆脱“无所不晓”的高期望

只要有一个女人讨厌“情绪化女人”的定型

定有一个男人可以自由地哭泣和表现柔情

只要有一个女人觉得自己为儿女所累

定有一个男人没有享受为人之父的全部滋味

只要有一个女人得不到有意义的工作和平等的薪金

定有一个男人不得不担起对另一个人的全部责任

只要有一个女人想弄懂汽车的构造而得不到帮助

定有一个男人想享受烹饪得乐趣却得不到满足

只要有一个女人向自身的解放迈进一步

定有一个男人发现自己也更接近自由之路

For Every Woman

--Nancy R. Smith, copyright 1973

For every woman who is tired of acting weak when she knows she is strong,
there is a man who is tired of appearing strong when he feels vulnerable.

For every woman who is tired of acting dumb,
there is a man who is burdened with the constant expectation of “knowing everything.”

For every woman who is tired of being called “an emotional female,”
there is a man who is denied the right to weep and to be gentle.

For every woman who is called unfeminine when she competes,
there is a man for whom competition is the only way to prove his masculinity.

For every woman who is tired of being a sex object,
there is a man who must worry about his potency.

For every woman who feels “tied down” by her children,
there is a man who is denied the full pleasures of shared parenthood.

For every woman who is denied meaningful employment or equal pay,
there is a man who must bear full financial responsibility for another human being.

For every woman who was not taught the intricacies of an automobile,
there is a man who was not taught the satisfactions of cooking.

For every woman who takes a step toward her own liberation,
there is a man who finds the way to freedom has been made a little easier.
