______
A person’s age no longer tells you anything about his or her social position, marriage or health. There’s no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that keeps us on time and tells us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isn’t as strong as it used to be. It doesn’t surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing. We’ve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.
You may ask, is all this concern about sexism in language really important? Aren’t there more serious issues facing women today? Of course, there are many serious issues facing women. I mean, there are so many that I could mention; the AIDS crisis, workplace inequality, the way the mass media treats women, that is, the way they stereotype women, and so on. But I’d like to point out that in addition to these issues, the language question is also on the minds of international organizations such as the United Nations, who try very hard to avoid sexism in their publications. The issue isn’t just the words themselves, but the ideas behind the words.
选项
答案
你们会问,对语言中出现的性别偏见现象是否有必要太过关切?今天,妇女不是还面临更严峻的问题吗?当然,妇女面临许多严峻的问题。我的意思是这些问题举不胜举:艾滋病危机、工作场所的不平等、大众媒体对待妇女的方式(比如对妇女脸谱化的做法)。但是,我想指出的是,除了这些问题,语言问题也受到诸如联合国这些国际机构的重视,他们很努力避免在其出版物中出现性别歧视现象这个问题不仅仅在于词语本身,而是词语背后的观念。
