Linda and Jack talk about the Women's Liberation Movement.

W: What do you think about the Women's Liberation Movement?
M: I'm not in favor of it. I think women should accept their traditional role of being housewives.
W: I really disagree with you. Women should enjoy the same rights as men. Why can't a woman have her own career?
M: Women and men have different advantages. Women are generally tender and considerate, so are suitable for caring for kids and so on. But because they're oftentimes too emotional, they're not likely to be as successful in the professional world.
W: Those are stereotypes. There are many cases that prove that women are just as competent in fields of law, management and so on.
M: There are some, but not many.
W: That's because there are still too many prejudiced men. And too few women have woken up to their rights. That's where the Women's Liberation Movement comes into play.


林达和杰克谈论妇女解放运动。

W: 你如何看待妇女解放运动?
M: 我不赞成。我认为妇女应当接受她们传统的角色,做家庭妇女。
W: 我很不同意你的看法。女性应当和男性享有同样的权利。为什么一个女人不能有她自己的事业呢?
M: 女人和男人有各自不同的优势。女性通常温柔体贴,所以适合照顾孩子等等。但是因为她们常常感情用事,她们不太可能在职场上取得同样的成功。
W: 这些都是老一套了。有很多例子可以证明女性在法律、管理等领域里和男性一样有能力。
M: 有一些,但不多。
W: 那是因为现在仍然有很多持有偏见的男人,而且太少的女人意识到她们(拥有的)权利。那就是为什么会产生妇女运动。
