I was slow to understand the deep grievances of women. This was because, as a boy, I had envied them. Before college, the only people I had ever known who were interested in art or music or literature, the only ones who read books, the only ones who ever seemed to enjoy a sense of ease and grace were the mothers and daughters Like the menfolk, they fretted about money, they scrimped and made-do. But, when the pay stopped coming in, they were not the omens who had failed. Nor did they have to go to war, and that seamed to me a blessed fact. By comparison with the narrow, ironclad days of fathers, there was an expansiveness, I thought, in the days of mothers. They went to see neighbors, to shop in town, to run errands at school, at the library, at church. No doubt, had I looked harder at their lives, I would have envied them less. It was not my fate to become a woman, so it was easier for me to see the graces. Few of them held jobs outside the home, and those who did filled thankless roles as clerks and waitresses. I didn’t see, then, what a prison a house could be, since hours seemed to me brighter, handsomer places than any factory. I did not realize--because such things ware never spoken of--how often women suffered from men’s bullying.
选项
答案
像男人一样,女人也为钱发愁,电省吃俭用,凑合度日。但是,如果家里断了收入,问题并非出在她们身上。她们也用不着去打仗,这在我看来是一桩幸事。跟做父亲的那种拥挤的、刻板的生活相比,我觉得做母亲的日子过得比较宽松自在。她们上邻居家串门,去城里买东西,到学校、图书馆、教堂跑跑腿儿。当然,我若是对她们的生活观察得敏锐一些,就不会那么羡慕她们了。我命中注定不是女人,因而更容易发现女人悠闲的一面。她们很少有人外出做工,即使有去做工的,也是做些诸如文书和女招待之类的吃力不讨好的差事。那时候,我还意识不到家会多像一座监狱,因为在我看来,家比哪座工厂都要亮堂美观。
