很多女士。
00:30
For me, the time I remember記得 best最好
5
18521
2657
對我來說,我記得最清楚的是,
00:33
is when that stranger陌生人
was a student學生 of mine.
6
21202
3360
那個陌生人是我的一個學生。
00:37
He came來了 up to me after class that night
7
25595
2936
那晚下課後,他來找我,
00:40
and his words confirmed確認
what I already已經 knew知道:
8
28555
2856
他的話證實了我已知道的,
00:43
"I am so sorry, professor教授.
9
31435
1776
「非常抱歉,教授。
00:45
If I had known已知 it was you,
I would never have said those things."
10
33235
3896
如果早知道是您,
我怎麼也不會說那些話。 」
00:49
(Laughter笑聲)
11
37155
2296
(笑聲)
00:51
I wasn't a person to him
until直到 I was his professor教授.
12
39475
4080
對他來說,如果我不是他的教授,
他就沒把我是一個人。
00:56
This concept概念, called objectification客觀,
13
44515
2576
這就是所謂「人格物化」的概念,
00:59
is the foundation基礎 of sexism性別歧視,
14
47115
2056
這是性別歧視的基礎。
01:01
and we see it reinforced加強
through通過 every一切 aspect方面 of our lives生活.
15
49195
3520
我們在生活的各個層面,
看到它不斷的被強化,
01:07
We see it in the government政府
16
55635
2216
我們可從政府部門
01:09
that refuses拒絕 to punish懲治 men男人
17
57875
3416
拒絕懲罰那些
01:13
for raping強姦 women婦女.
18
61315
1736
強姦婦女的男人看到。
01:15
We see it in advertisements廣告.
19
63075
2296
我們在廣告裡看到。
01:17
How many許多 of you have seen看到 an advertisement廣告
20
65395

01:19
that uses使用 a woman's女人的 breast乳房
to sell an entirely完全 unrelated無關 product產品?
21
67427

用女性的胸部
來推廣毫不相干的產品?
01:26
Or movie電影 after movie電影 after movie電影
22
74515
3776
還有,一部接一部的電影裡,
01:30
that portrays刻畫 women婦女
as only love interests利益?
23
78315
2880
女性被刻畫成只是愛情目標?
01:34
These examples例子 might威力 seem似乎
inconsequential無關緊要 and harmless無害,
24
82195
3616
這些例子看似無關緊要,無傷大雅,
01:37
but they're insidious陰險,
25
85835
1256
但實際上他們的殺傷力很大,
01:39
slowly慢慢地 building建造 into a culture文化
that refuses拒絕 to see women婦女 as people.
26
87115
4280
慢慢滲入成一種
無視女性為人的文化。
01:43
We see this in the school學校
that sends發送 home a 10-year-old-歲 girl女孩
27
91955
4190
我們看見學校把 10 歲的
女學生打發回家,
01:48
because her clothes衣服 were
a distraction娛樂 to boys男孩 trying to learn學習,
28
96169
3642
因為她的衣著讓男生分心,
不能專心讀書,
01:51
or the government政府 that refuses拒絕
to punish懲治 men男人 for raping強姦 women婦女
29
99835

還有那些政府拒絕懲罰
強姦女性的男人,

她要求某位男人不要毛手毛腳。
02:07
Media媒體 plays播放 a large role角色 in perpetuating延續
the objectification客觀 of women婦女.

對女性的物化,
媒體發揮著重要的作用。

Let's consider考慮
the classic經典 romantic浪漫 comedy喜劇.

讓我們設想
在一個經典浪漫喜劇中,
02:16
We're typically一般 introduced介紹
to two kinds of women婦女 in these movies電影,
35
124235
3896
在這些電影裡,總有兩種女性,
02:20
two kinds of desirable合意 women婦女, anyway無論如何.
36
128155
2736
兩種讓人想要追求的女生。
02:22
The first is the sexy性感的 bombshell重磅炸彈.
37
130915
2416

第一種是非常性感的女生。
02:25
This is the unbelievably令人難以置信 gorgeous華麗 woman女人
with the perfect完善 body身體.
38
133355
3656
非常美麗的女人,完美的身體曲線。
02:29
Our leading領導 man
has no trouble麻煩 identifying識別 her
39
137035
2616
我們的男主角能夠
毫不費力的注意到她,
02:31
and even less trouble麻煩 having sex性別 with her.
40
139675
2360
並甚至很輕易就能和她發生關係。
02:34
The second第二 is our leading領導 lady淑女,
41
142755
1856
第二個是我們的女主角,
02:36
the beautiful美麗 but demure拘謹 woman女人

3856
美麗端莊的女生,
最後被男主角愛上,
02:40
despite儘管 not noticing注意到 her at first
43
148515
2136
雖然一開始可能並沒有注意到她,
02:42
or not liking喜歡 her if he did.
44
150675
2600
或是就算注意到她,
也沒有立刻喜歡她。
02:45
The first is the slut懶婦.
45
153835
2016
第一個女生是蕩婦。
02:47
She is to be consumed消費 and forgotten忘記了.
46
155875
2016
她在被利用後,就被遺忘了。
02:49
She is much too available可得到.
47
157915
1280
她太隨手可得。
02:51
The second第二 is desirable合意 but modest謙虛,
48
159795
3656
第二個女生吸引人但是低調,
02:55
and therefore因此 worthy值得

未來子女的母親。
02:58
Marriage婚姻 material材料.
50
166955
1200
結婚的材料。
03:00
We're actually其實 told
that women婦女 have two roles角色,
51
168755
2936
我們實際上被告知,
女性有兩個角色,
03:03
but these two roles角色 have a difficult time
existing現有 within the same相同 woman女人.
52
171715
4240
但是這兩種角色
很難並存於同一個女人。
03:08
On the rare罕見 occasion場合
that I share分享 with a new acquaintance熟人
53
176555
3656
在罕見的情況下,
我會和剛認識的人
03:12
that I study研究 sex性別,
54
180235
1736
分享我是做性研究的。
03:13
if they don't end結束
the conversation會話 right then,
55
181995
2376
如果這時他們不馬上中止谈话,
03:16
they're usually平時 pretty漂亮 intrigued好奇.
56
184395
2000
他們通常都會很好奇。
03:19
"Oh. Tell me more."
57
187315
1776
「哦,說來聽聽。」
03:21
So I do.
58
189115
1200
於是我就說了。
03:24
"I'm really interested有興趣
in studying研究 the sexual有性 behaviors行為
59
192195
2616
「我對懷孕中和產後夫妻的
​​性行為的研究,
03:26
of pregnant and postpartum產後 couples情侶."
60
194835
1776
非常感興趣。」
03:28
At this point I get
a different不同 kind of response響應.
61
196635
3536
這時我會得到不同的回應。
03:32
(Laughter笑聲)
62
200195
1976

(笑聲)
03:34
"Oh. Huh.
63
202195
1800
「哦,哼。
03:36
Do pregnant people even have sex性別?
64
204675
2200
孕婦可以有性行為嗎?
03:40
Have you thought
about studying研究 sexual有性 desire慾望
65
208075
3936
你有沒有想過研究性慾,
03:44
or orgasms性高潮?
66
212035
1336
或性高潮?
03:45
That would be interesting有趣, and sexy性感的."
67
213395
3000
那應該會更有意思,並且性感。 」
03:50
Tell me. What are the first words
that come to mind心神
68
218115
2536
請告訴我,當你們想到孕婦的時候,
03:52
when you picture圖片 a pregnant woman女人?
69
220675
1800
進入你們腦海的第一個字是什麼?
03:55
I asked this question
in a survey調查 of over 500 adults成年人,
70
223275
3416
這個問題,我在一個調查中
訪問了超過 500 個成年人,
03:58
and most responded回應 with "belly肚皮" or "round回合"
71
226715
3576
最多的回答是「肚子」或「圓形」,
04:02
and "cute可愛."
72
230315
2040
還有 「可愛」。
04:05
This didn't surprise me too much.
73
233035
1616
這並沒有讓我很吃驚。
04:06
What else其他 do we label標籤 as cute可愛?
74
234675
1640
還有什麼我們通常用可愛來形容?
04:09
Babies嬰兒. Puppies小狗. Kittens小貓.
75
237835
2496
嬰兒、小狗、小貓。
04:12
The elderly老年. Right?
76
240355
1656
還有年長者。是嗎?
04:14
(Laughter笑聲)
77
242035
1720
(笑聲)
04:17
When we label標籤 an adult成人 as cute可愛, though雖然,
78
245050
2657
當我們把成年人用可愛來形容時,
04:19
we take away a lot of their intelligence情報,
79
247731
2480
我們剝奪了他們的智慧,
04:22
their complexity複雜.
80
250235
1200
以及他們複雜性。
04:24
We reduce減少 them to childlike孩子似的 qualities氣質.
81
252195
2480
我們把他們降到了小孩子的水準。
04:27
I also asked heterosexual異性 men男人
82
255555
1656
我也訪問過異性戀的男生,
04:29
to imagine想像 a woman女人 that they're
partnered合作 with is pregnant,
83
257235
3136
讓他們假想他們的另一半正在懷孕,
04:32
and then asked women婦女
to imagine想像 that they are pregnant,
84
260395
2776
然後問女生假想自己懷孕,
04:35
and then tell me
the first words that come to mind心神
85
263195
2616
然後告訴我
當他們想像在做性行為時,
04:37
when they imagine想像 having sex性別.
86
265835
2040
首先想到的第一個字詞。
04:40
Most of the responses回复 were negative.
87
268955
2080
大多數的反應都是負面的。
04:44
"Gross."
88
272242
1427
「噁心」
04:45
"Awkward尷尬."
89
273693
1373
「尷尬」
04:47
"Not sexy性感的." "Odd."
90
275090
2441
「不性感」「奇怪」
04:49
"Uncomfortable不舒服."
91
277555
1200
「不舒服」
04:51
"How?"
92
279235
1256
「怎麽做?」
04:52
(Laughter笑聲)
93
280515
2000
(笑聲)
04:55
"Not worth價值 the trouble麻煩."
"Not worth價值 the risk風險."
94
283315
3096
「這麼麻煩不值得」
「不值得冒險」
04:58
That last one really stuck卡住 with me.
95
286435
2000
最後的一個詞讓我想了很久。
05:01
We might威力 think that because we divorce離婚
pregnant women婦女 and moms媽媽 from sexuality性慾,
96
289715
4736
我們可能認為因為
我們把孕婦、母親和性分開,
05:06
we are removing去除 the constraints限制
of sexual有性 objectification客觀.
97
294475
5016
我們就去除了性物化的約束。
05:11
They experience經驗 less sexism性別歧視. Right?
98
299515
2040
她們經歷一些性別歧視。是嗎?
05:14
Not exactly究竟.
99
302235
1576
並不盡然。
05:15
What happens發生 instead代替
is a different不同 kind of objectification客觀.
100
303835
3120
其實結果是另外一種形式的物化,
05:19
In my efforts努力 to explain說明 this to others其他,
101
307755
2256
在我努力向別人解釋這個的時候,
05:22
one conversation會話
led to the Venus金星 of WillendorfWillendorf,
102
310035
3776
其中的一次談話就轉到
維倫多爾夫的維納斯,
05:25
a Paleolithic舊石器時代的 figurine塑像 scholars學者 assumed假定
was a goddess女神 of love and beauty美女,
103
313835
4816
這個舊石器時代的小雕像,
學者們認為是愛和美麗的女神。
05:30
hence於是 the name名稱 Venus金星.
104
318675
1440
因此命名她為維納斯。
05:32
This theory理論 was later後來 revised修訂, though雖然,
105
320515
2136
這個理論之後又被更正過,
05:34
when scholars學者 noted注意
the sculptor's雕塑家的 obvious明顯 focus焦點
106
322675
3696
當學者們注意到雕刻家的重心
05:38
on the figurine's雕像的 reproductive生殖 features特徵:
107
326395
3416
明顯的放在雕像的生殖特徵上:
05:41
large breasts乳房,
considered考慮 ideal理想 for nursing看護;
108
329835
3256
豐滿的胸部
被認為是理想的哺育工具,
05:45
a round回合, possibly或者 pregnant belly肚皮;
109
333115
2616
豐滿,可能已懷孕的腹部;
05:47
the remnants殘餘 of red dye染料,
alluding暗指 to menstruation經期 or birth分娩.
110
335755
3480
紅赭染料的殘留,暗示月經或生育。
05:52
They also assumed假定 that she was
meant意味著 to be held保持 or placed放置 lying說謊 down
111
340555
3535
學者們也假設她是應該被抬著,
或是平放著的,
05:56
because her tiny feet
don't allow允許 her to be freestanding獨立式的.
112
344114
4377
因為她的小腳是不允許她能站著的。
06:00
She also had no face面對.
113
348515
1480
她也沒有臉。
06:02
For this reason原因, it was assumed假定
that she was a representation表示 of fertility生育能力
114
350795
4096
因為如此,她被認為是繁衍的象徵。
06:06
and not a portrait肖像 of a person.
115
354915
2856
並不是一個人的塑像。
06:09
She was an object目的.
116
357795
1280
她是一個物品。
06:11
In the history歷史 of her interpretation解釋,
117
359675
1816
貫穿在對她的解讀的歷史裡,
06:13
she went from object目的
of ideal理想 beauty美女 and love
118
361515
3136
她從一個理想的美和愛的物件,
06:16
to object目的 of reproduction再生產.
119
364675
1840
變成繁衍的物品。
06:19
I think this transition過渡 speaks說話 more
120
367355
2456
我認為這種轉變,
與其說是雕像的實際目的,
06:21
about the scholars學者
who have interpreted解讀 her purpose目的
121
369835
3776
不如說是,
它告訴了我們
那些研究她的學者的想法。
06:25
than the actual實際 purpose目的
of the figurine塑像 herself她自己.
122
373635
4000
06:30
When a woman女人 becomes pregnant,
123
378355
2096
當一個女人懷孕了,
06:32
she leaves樹葉 the realm領域
of men's男裝 sexual有性 desire慾望
124
380475
3736
她不再是男性性需求的對象,
06:36
and slides幻燈片 into her reproductive生殖
and child-rearing撫養孩子 role角色.
125
384235
4576
隨後進入了生育和養育孩子的角色。
06:40
In doing so, she also becomes
126
388835
2616
這樣之後,她又成為了
06:43
the property屬性 of the community社區,
127
391475
1776
社區的共同財產。
06:45
considered考慮 very important重要
but only because she's pregnant. Right?
128
393275
4480
被認為非常重要,
但只是因為她懷孕的緣故。是不是?
06:50
I've taken採取 to calling調用 this
the WillendorfWillendorf effect影響,
129
398315
2496
我把這個稱為「維倫多夫效應」。
06:52
and once一旦 again we see it reinforced加強
in many許多 aspects方面 of her life.
130
400835
3680
再一次我們看見它在
女性生活的許多方面被强化。
06:57
Has anyone任何人 here
ever been visibly明顯地 pregnant?
131
405218
2513
這裡有人曾經很明顯的懷孕嗎?
06:59
(Laughter笑聲)
132
407755
1216
(笑聲)
07:00
Yeah. Lots of you, right?
133
408995

It is actually其實 safe安全 to drink
in moderation適度 during pregnancy懷孕.
144
441955
3920
其實在懷孕期間
適度的飲酒是安全的。
07:38
Many許多 of us don't know this
145
446515
1536
許多人不知道這個,
07:40
because doctors醫生 don't trust相信
pregnant women婦女 with this secret秘密 --
146
448075
3736
是因為醫生信不過
把這個秘密告訴孕婦。
07:43
(Laughter笑聲)
147
451835
1760
(笑聲)
07:49
especially特別 if she's less educated博學
or a woman女人 of color顏色.
148
457355
4256
特別是那些受教育少的
或是非白種人。
07:53
What this tells告訴 us is,
149
461635
1736
這就告訴我們,
07:55
this WillendorfWillendorf effect影響,
it's also classistclassist and racist種族主義者.
150
463395
4216
這個維倫多夫效應也是有
階級歧視和種族歧視的。
07:59
It's present當下 when
the government政府 reminds提醒 women婦女
151
467635
5896
它現形於當政府用
每一個新的反墮胎法案
08:05
with every一切 new anti-choice反選 bill法案
152
473555
2656
來提醒女性
08:08
that the contents內容 of her uterus子宮
are not her own擁有,
153
476235
2856
她們子宮裡的東西不是她自己的,
08:11
or when an ob-gyn婦產科 says,
154
479115
2056
或者當婦產科醫生說:
08:13
"While it's safe安全
to have sex性別 during pregnancy懷孕,
155
481195
2296
「在懷孕期間的性行為是安全的,
08:15
sometimes有時 you never know.
156
483515
1336
但有時候很難說。
08:16
Better safe安全 than sorry, right?"
157
484875
1640
還是以防萬一不要冒險,對不對?」
08:19
She's denied否認 basic基本 privacy隱私
and bodily身體 autonomy自治
158
487395
4256
在「做一個好媽媽的」 的僞裝下,
08:23
under the guise偽裝 of "be a good mother母親."
159
491675
2000
她被否認了基本的隱私和身體自主,
08:26
We don't trust相信 her
to make her own擁有 decisions決定.
160
494155
2440
我們信不過她能給自己做決定。
08:29
She's cute可愛, remember記得?
161
497115
1600
她很可愛,記得嗎?
08:33
When we tell women婦女
162
501795
2296
讓我們告訴女性
08:36
that sexual有性 pleasure樂趣 -- excuse藉口 me.
163
504115
2936
性愉悅──抱歉。
08:39
When we tell women婦女 that sex性別
isn't worth價值 the risk風險 during pregnancy懷孕,
164
507075
4816
當我們告訴女性
懷孕期間不值得冒險有性行為,
08:43
what we're telling告訴 her is that
her sexual有性 pleasure樂趣 doesn't matter.
165
511915
4256
其實我們告訴她的是
她的性愉悅並不重要。
08:48
So what we are telling告訴 her
is that she in fact事實 doesn't matter,
166
516195
3296
因此我們想說的是她其實並不重要,
08:51
even though雖然 the needs需求 of her fetus胎兒
are not at odds可能性 with her own擁有 needs需求.
167
519515
4720
即使她胎兒的需求
和她的需求並不相悖。
08:57
So medical providers供應商,
168
525195
2256
所以醫護人員們,
08:59
such這樣 as the American美國 College學院
of Obstetricians產科醫生 and Gynecologists婦科醫生
169
527475
2976
像美國婦產科醫學學會,
09:02
have the opportunity機會 to educate教育
about the safety安全 of sex性別 during pregnancy懷孕.
170
530475
4896
有機會進行關於
孕期性行爲安全的教育。
09:07
So what do the experts專家 say?
171
535395
1400

所以專家是怎樣說的?
09:09
ACOGACOG actually其實 has
no public上市 official官方 statement聲明
172
537755
2496
美國婦產科醫學學會實際上沒有
09:12

173
540275
3160
關於懷孕期間
性行爲安全的公開聲明。
09:16
Guidance指導 from the Mayo梅奧 Clinic診所
is generally通常 positive

一般上是正面的,
09:19

09:21
"Although雖然 most women婦女 can safely安然

176
549635

「雖然大多數的女性
在懷孕期間的性行為是安全的,
09:24
sometimes有時 it's best最好 to be cautious謹慎."
177
552810
2121
有時最好還是要小心。 」
09:26
Some women婦女 don't want
to have sex性別 during pregnancy懷孕,
178
554955
3096
有些孕婦在懷孕期間
根本不想有性行為,
09:30
and that's OK.
179
558075
1256
這沒關係。
09:31

180
559355

有些孕婦想要有性行為
09:33
and that's OK, too.
181
561995

09:35
What needs需求 to stop
is society社會 telling告訴 women婦女
182
563435
2656
我們需要做的是社會不要再教導女性
09:38
what they can and cannot不能 do
with their bodies身體.
183
566115

對自己的身體什麼可以做,
什麼不可以做。
09:41

09:48
Pregnant women婦女 are not faceless不露面,

But the truth真相 is, the real真實 secret秘密 is,
187
584115

真相是,真正的秘密是,
09:58
we tell all women婦女 that
their sexual有性 pleasure樂趣 doesn't matter.
188
586555
4256
我們告訴所有的女性
他們的性愉悅是無關緊要的。
10:02
We refuse垃圾 to even acknowledge確認
that women婦女 who have sex性別 with women婦女

「哦,這只是一個階段……
10:10
she just needs需求 the right man
to come along沿."
192
598555
2320
她只是還沒找到一個合適的人。 」
10:14
Every一切 time a woman女人 has sex性別
193
602155
2336
每一次當女性有性行為,
10:16
simply只是 because it feels感覺 good,
194

只是因為自己感覺好,
10:18

為優先是很可怕的,
10:34

12:12
When it comes to women's女士的 equality平等,
the two need not oppose反對 one another另一個.
