03:12
And as I grow增長 in life,
79
177000
2000
當我在生活生長大的時候
03:14
I would say to myself,
80
179000

我會對自己說
03:16
"My God, what's wrong錯誤 with me?

186000
2000
當我回想起

2000
當我們都是少年的時候
03:35
We lived生活 in New York紐約 City, as I said.

3000
那個地方在城市外,大概需要兩個小時的車程
03:46
And as we were preparing準備
93
211000
2000
當我們準備
03:48
to come back from the burial葬禮,
94
213000

他不想在我的面前哭

104
236000
3000
但是他知道他在回到城市不能堅持住
04:14
and it was better me than to allow允許 himself他自己
105

2000
在我面前表達這些感覺和情感比在
04:16
to express表現 these feelings情懷 and emotions情緒 in front面前 of the women婦女.

那些女人面前要好
04:19
And this is a man

in the ground地面 --
110
250000
2000
土地裏
04:27
something I just can't even imagine想像.
111
252000
3000
有一些事情我是無法想像的
04:32
The thing that sticks with me the most
112
257000
2000
深深插入我的內心的那些事情
04:34
is that he was apologizing道歉 to me
113
259000
3000
是他向我道歉
04:37
for crying哭了 in front面前 of me,
114
262000
2000
為在我面前哭泣
04:39
and at the same相同 time, he was also giving me props道具,
115
264000
3000
與此同時,他也安慰我
04:42
lifting吊裝 me up,
116
267000
2000
讓我振作起來
04:44
for not crying哭了.
117
269000
2000
不哭泣
04:46
I come to also look at this
118
271000
3000
我也將這個看作
04:49
as this fear恐懼 that we have as men男人,
119
274000
2000
作為一個男人而擁有的恐懼
04:51
this fear恐懼 that just has us paralyzed,
120
276000
2000
讓我們麻木的這種恐懼情緒,
04:53
holding保持 us hostage人質
121
278000
2000
是我們成為
04:55
to this man box.
122
280000
2000
束縛男人的人質
04:57
I can remember記得 speaking請講
123
282000
2000
我記起一次談話
04:59
to a 12-year-old-歲 boy男孩, a football足球 player播放機,
124
284000
2000
和一個12歲的男孩,一個足球運動員
05:01
and I asked him, I said,
125
286000
2000
我問他,我說,
05:03
"How would you feel if,
126
288000
2000
“你會怎麼也想,如果
05:05
in front面前 of all the players玩家,
127
290000
2000
在所有的運動員面前
05:07
your coach教練 told you you were playing播放 like a girl女孩?"
128
292000
3000
你的教練說你踢球踢得像一個女孩?”
05:10
Now I expected預期 him to say something like,
129
295000
2000
我期待他說出這樣的話
05:12
I'd be sad傷心; I'd be mad; I'd be angry憤怒, or something like that.
130
297000
2000
我會感覺傷心,感覺瘋狂,感覺生氣,或類似的事情
05:14
No, the boy男孩 said to me --
131
299000
2000
不過,這個男孩這樣對我說--
05:16
the boy男孩 said to me,
132
301000
2000
這個男孩這樣對我說
05:18
"It would destroy破壞 me."
133
303000
3000
"這會毀了我."
05:21
And I said to myself,
134
306000
3000
之後我對自己說
05:24
"God, if it would destroy破壞 him
135
309000
2000
"天呐,如果這樣會毀了他 —
05:26
to be called a girl女孩,
136
311000
2000
— 被叫做一個女孩,
05:28
what are we then teaching教學 him
137
313000
3000
我們之後要怎麼樣教育他
05:31
about girls女孩?"
138
316000
3000
關於女孩?“
05:34
(Applause掌聲)
139
319000
4000
(掌聲)
05:38
It took me back to a time
140
323000
2000
這使我會想到一段時期
05:40
when I was about 12 years年份 old.
141
325000
3000
在我大概12歲的時候
05:43
I grew成長 up in tenement房屋 buildings房屋 in the inner city.
142
328000
3000
我在城內的貧民區長大
05:46
At this time we're living活的 in the Bronx布朗克斯,
143
331000
2000
這段時期我們生活在布朗克斯區
05:48
and in the building建造 next下一個 to where I lived生活 there was a guy named命名 Johnny約翰尼.
144
333000
3000
在我住的地方鍍金有一個叫做Johnny的人
05:51
He was about 16 years年份 old,
145
336000
2000
他大概16歲
05:53
and we were all about 12 years年份 old -- younger更年輕 guys.
146
338000
2000
我們都是些12歲或更年輕的孩子
05:55
And he was hanging out with all us younger更年輕 guys.
147
340000
2000
他和我們年輕的男孩在一起
05:57
And this guy, he was up to a lot of no good.
148
342000
2000
他品行不正
05:59
He was the kind of kid孩子 who parents父母 would have to wonder奇蹟,
149
344000
2000
他是那種父母們一定會擔心的孩子
06:01
"What is this 16-year-old-歲 boy男孩 doing with these 12-year-old-歲 boys男孩?"
150
346000
3000
"16歲的男孩和12歲的男孩會做些什麼?"
06:04
And he did spend a lot of time up to no good.

06:32
So one day, I'm out in front面前 of the house doing something --
164
377000
2000
有一天,我在我們的房子外面做些事情 —
06:34
just playing播放 around, doing something -- I don't know what.
165

3000
只是在那裏玩,做些事情—我不知道那是什麼
06:37
He looks容貌 out his window窗口; he calls電話 me upstairs樓上; he said, "Hey Anthony安東尼."
166
382000
2000
他從他的窗戶探出頭來,他叫我上樓,他說,”嘿,Anthony"
06:39
They called me Anthony安東尼 growing生長 up as a kid孩子.
167
384000
2000
我是被他們叫著Anthony長大的
06:41
"Hey Anthony安東尼, come on upstairs樓上."

"嘿,Anthony,上樓來."
06:43
Johnny約翰尼 call, you go.

Johnny 叫,你就要去.
06:45
So I run right upstairs樓上.
170
390000
2000
所以我很快的上樓去.
06:47
As he opens打開 the door, he says to me, "Do you want some?"
171
392000
3000
當他開門的時候,他對我說,“你想要一些嗎?”
06:50
Now I immediately立即 knew知道 what he meant意味著.
172
395000
2000
當時我很快明白了他想說什麼.
06:52
Because for me growing生長 up at that time,
173
397000
2000
我成長的那個時候
06:54
and our relationship關係 with this man box,
174
399000
2000
我們對這個男人的盒子有認識的人
06:56
"Do you want some?" meant意味著 one of two things:
175
401000
2000
"你想要一些嗎"意味著兩件事中的其中一件
06:58
sex性別 or drugs毒品 --
176
403000
2000
性 或者毒品 --
07:00
and we weren't doing drugs毒品.
177
405000
2000
我們不吸毒.
07:02
Now my box, my card,
178
407000
2000
現在我的盒子,其中的內容物
07:04
my man box card,
179
409000
2000
我的盒子的內容物
07:06
was immediately立即 in jeopardy危險.
180
411000
2000
立刻感到威脅.
07:08
Two things: One, I never had sex性別.
181
413000
3000
兩件事:一,我從未咻咻
07:11
We don't talk about that as men男人.
182
416000
2000
我們作為男人不談論這些.
07:13
You only tell your dearest親愛的, closest最近的 friend朋友, sworn宣誓就職 to secrecy保密 for life,
183
418000
3000
你會和你最親愛的,最要好的朋友發誓保守這秘密
07:16
the first time you had sex性別.
184
421000
2000
才談起你的第一次性體驗.
07:18
For everybody每個人 else其他, we go around like we've我們已經 been having sex性別 since以來 we were two.
185
423000
3000
對於其他人,我們走起來好像我們2歲的時候就已經做愛的
07:21
There ain't no first time.
186
426000
2000
這裏沒有第一次.
07:23
(Laughter笑聲)
187
428000
3000
(笑聲)
07:26
The other thing I couldn't不能 tell him is that I didn't want any.
188
431000
2000
另一件事是我不能告訴他我一點也不想.
07:28
That's even worse更差. We're supposed應該 to always be on the prowl潛行.
189
433000
3000
那樣更糟. 我們應該總是在徘徊.
07:31
Women婦女 are objects對象,
190
436000
2000
女人們只是玩物,
07:33
especially特別 sexual有性 objects對象.
191
438000
2000
尤其是性玩物.
07:35
Anyway無論如何, so I couldn't不能 tell him any of that.
192
440000
2000
不管怎樣,我不能告訴他這些.
07:37
So, like my mother母親 would say, make a long story故事 short,
193
442000
2000
所以,正如我的媽媽會說,簡而言之
07:39
I just simply只是 said to Johnny約翰尼, "Yes."
194
444000
2000
我只是對Johnny說,“是的."
07:41
He told me to go in his room房間.
195
446000
2000
他告訴我進去他的房間
07:43
I go in his room房間. On his bed is a girl女孩 from the neighborhood鄰里 named命名 Sheila希拉.
196
448000
3000
我走進他的房間.在他的床上有一個鄰家女孩名叫Sheila.
07:46
She's 16 years年份 old.
197
451000
2000
她是16歲.
07:48
She's nude裸體.
198
453000
2000
她是赤裸的.
07:50
She's what I know today今天 to be mentally精神上 ill生病,
199
455000
2000
她是我現在才知道的所謂精神疾病患者,
07:52
higher-functioning高機能 at times than others其他.
200
457000
3000
和其他人相比她有時不正常.
07:55
We had a whole整個 choice選擇 of inappropriate不當 names for her.
201
460000
3000
我們也有許多數不清的外號取笑她.
07:59
Anyway無論如何, Johnny約翰尼 had just gotten得到 through通過 having sex性別 with her.
202
464000
3000
不管怎樣,Johnny 剛剛和她做愛.
08:02
Well actually其實, he raped強姦 her, but he would say he had sex性別 with her.
203
467000
3000
或者說,他強姦了她,但是他會說他和他做愛.
08:05
Because, while Sheila希拉 never said no,
204
470000
3000
因為,Sheila從來不說不可以,
08:08
she also never said yes.
205
473000
2000
她也從來不說可以.
08:10
So he was offering me the opportunity機會 to do the same相同.
206
475000
2000
所以他給我做相同事情的機會.
08:12
So when I go in the room房間, I close the door.
207
477000
3000
當我走進那個房間,我關上門.
08:15
Folks鄉親, I'm petrified石化的.
208
480000
2000
人們啊,我呆住了.
08:17
I stand with my back to the door so Johnny約翰尼 can't bust胸圍 in the room房間
209
482000
2000
我靠著門,這樣Johnny 就不能突然沖進房間
08:19
and see that I'm not doing anything,
210
484000
2000
並且看到我什麼都沒幹.
08:21
and I stand there long enough足夠 that I could have actually其實 doneDONE something.
211
486000
3000
我站在那裏很久以示我可以做一些事情.
08:24
So now I'm no longer trying to figure數字 out what I'm going to do;
212
489000
2000
所以現在我不知道我將要做什麼,
08:26
I'm trying to figure數字 out how I'm going to get out of this room房間.
213
491000
3000
我正在努力去想辦法如何離開這個房間.
08:29
So in my 12 years年份 of wisdom智慧,
214
494000
2000
我用我12年的智慧,
08:31
I zip壓縮 my pants褲子 down,
215
496000
2000
我把我的褲子拉開脫下來,
08:33
I walk步行 out into the room房間,
216
498000
2000
我從房間裏走出來.
08:35
and lo and behold不料 to me,
217
500000
2000
他們注視我,
08:37
while I was in the room房間 with Sheila希拉,
218
502000
2000
當我進房間和Sheila一起的時候,
08:39
Johnny約翰尼 was back at the window窗口 calling調用 guys up.
219
504000
3000
Johnny 回到窗戶那裏叫男孩們上來.
08:42
So now there's a living活的 room房間 full充分 of guys.
220
507000
2000
現在起居室充滿了男孩.
08:44
It was like the waiting等候 room房間 in the doctor's醫生 office辦公室.
221
509000
3000
就好像醫生辦公室的等待間一樣.
08:47
And they asked me how was it,
222
512000
2000
他們問我怎麼樣.
08:49
and I say to them, "It was good,"
223
514000
3000
我告訴他們,"不錯."
08:52
and I zip壓縮 my pants褲子 up in front面前 of them,
224
517000
2000
我在他們面前拉起了褲子,
08:54
and I head for the door.
225
519000
2000
我衝向門口.
08:56
Now I say this all with remorse悔恨,
226
521000
2000
現在我悔恨地說著這些,
08:58
and I was feeling感覺 a tremendous巨大 amount of remorse悔恨 at that time,
227
523000
2000
那時我也感受到一股巨大的遺憾,
09:00
but I was conflicted衝突, because, while I was feeling感覺 remorse悔恨, I was excited興奮,
228
525000
3000
但是我很矛盾,因為,當我感到悔恨的時候,我很興奮,
09:03
because I didn't get caught抓住.
229
528000
2000
因為我沒有被發現(作假),
09:05
But I knew知道 I felt bad about what was happening事件.
230
530000
2000
但是我知道我對發生的事情感覺很不好.
09:07
This fear恐懼, getting得到 outside the man box,
231
532000
3000
從男人的盒子中出來的恐懼
09:10
totally完全 enveloped籠罩 me.
232
535000
2000
完全把我包住了.
09:12
It was way more important重要 to me,
233
537000
2000
這對我來說更重要,
09:14
about me and my man box card
234
539000
3000
男人的盒子中的內容
09:17
than about Sheila希拉
235
542000
2000
比Sheila
09:19
and what was happening事件 to her.
236
544000
2000
以及在她身上將要發生的事情.
09:21
See collectively, we as men男人
237
546000
2000
總括說,我們作為男人
09:23
are taught to have less value in women婦女,
238
548000
2000
被教育認為女人的價值較少,
09:25
to view視圖 them as property屬性 and the objects對象 of men男人.
239
550000
3000
看待她們是男人的財富和玩物.
09:28
We see that as an equation方程 that equals等於 violence暴力 against反對 women婦女.
240
553000
3000
我們把這看成一個方程,等於對女人的暴力
09:31
We as men男人, good men男人,
241
556000
2000
我們作為男人,好的男人,
09:33
the large majority多數 of men男人,
242
558000
2000
大部分的男人,
09:35
we operate操作 on the foundation基礎
243
560000
2000
我們在建構
09:37
of this whole整個 collective集體 socialization社會化.
244
562000
2000
整個集體社會.
09:39
We kind of see ourselves我們自己 separate分離, but we're very much a part部分 of it.
245
564000
3000
我們自認為我們是批次分開的,但我們在其中也是一體.
09:42
You see, we have to come to understand理解
246
567000
3000
我們要理解
09:45
that less value, property屬性 and objectification客觀 is the foundation基礎
247
570000
3000
價值小,象徵財富和性玩物的女人也是社會的一體
09:48
and the violence暴力 can't happen發生 without it.
248
573000
2000
而且,停止暴力也離不開這種認同感.
09:50
So we're very much a part部分 of the solution
249
575000
3000
所以我們是這解決方案的一部分
09:53
as well as the problem問題.
250
578000
2000
像這個問題一樣
09:55
The center中央 for disease疾病 control控制 says

that men's男裝 violence暴力 against反對 women婦女 is at epidemic疫情 proportions比例,
252
582000

10:00
