进入新年不久,就开始在脸书上看到Women's March的各种update。Women's March是呼吁男女平等的大游行,有几位朋友有参加,自然会分享照片还有一些心得。我觉得,对于大部分参加游行的吃瓜群众来说,这只是一场社交活动,就像平时你约朋友去喝咖啡吃饭,今天你约朋友游行。因为...

评分人类的历史有很多种写法,而从性别的角度,两性关系的不断变化与改写同样是社会发展与变迁的有力见证。从最初的母系社会,到旷日持久的父系社会,再到今天,人们正处在一个努力谋求性别平等,可种种不平等却仍然触目惊心的时代——我们似乎正在进步,可仍有许多路要走。 《女性...
评分我所理解的女权主义是绝对承认男女性别有所差异。 我所理解的女权主义要从社会层面讲起,首先要从字面意思说起,女权强调的是女生的权利。这里要提到另外一个词,叫父权社会,指的是男性在社会中具有绝对的优势。而女权主义什么意思,难道是说女性在社会中享有绝对的优势吗?错...

What does “feminism” mean today? That is the question at the heart of We Should All Be Feminists, a personal, eloquently-argued essay—adapted from her much-viewed Tedx talk of the same name—by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, the award-winning author of Americanah and Half of a Yellow Sun. With humor and levity, here Adichie offers readers a unique definition of feminism for the twenty-first century—one rooted in inclusion and awareness. She shines a light not only on blatant discrimination, but also the more insidious, institutional behaviors that marginalize women around the world, in order to help readers of all walks of life better understand the often masked realities of sexual politics. Throughout, she draws extensively on her own experiences—in the U.S., in her native Nigeria, and abroad—offering an artfully nuanced explanation of why the gender divide is harmful for women and men, alike. Argued in the same observant, witty and clever prose that has made Adichie a bestselling novelist, here is one remarkable author’s exploration of what it means to be a woman today—and an of-the-moment rallying cry for why we should all be feminists.

评分竟然是个才几十页的TED talk,不过适合给本科生上课入门。喜欢这个标签——“Happy African Feminist Who Does Not Hate Men And Who Likes To Wear Lip Gloss And High Heels For Herself And Not For Men.”
评分A very short but inspiring writing based on her famous TED talk
评分common sense feminism 101
评分短小精悍,“人创造文化,而不是文化创造人”。针对女权即人%权的说法:把专门的词汇模糊化,目的是打压声音、否定女权,否定了作为女性遭遇的种种不公。针对“贫穷男性也很难啊”的说法:贫穷男性也是男性,也拥有男性的特权,尽管他们没有富有的特权。针对女性拥有靠男性上位的权力(bottom power)的说法:不过是依附于男性的权力,容易破碎,女性自身并没有权力。
