原文及翻譯

My daughter, when she was 12, 13, in middle school, she said, "Dad, girls are talking a lot about empowered womanhood and how we can be in the world, but the boys seem kind of lost." There is an explosion of conversations about manhood online. Some of them are good: "How much water to drink? The exercise you should carry out. How can I get close to somebody I'm interested in?" That guy is trying to be their best selves. But there's a huge amount of it that's fed by an industry of misogynist and angry influencers who are getting the attention of young men. 

我女兒 12、13歲上中學(xué)時(shí)曾說(shuō)過(guò)：“爸爸，女孩們經(jīng)常談?wù)撆再x權(quán)以及我們?nèi)绾卧谶@個(gè)世界生存，但男孩們似乎有點(diǎn)迷失。”網(wǎng)上關(guān)于男子氣概的討論層出不窮。其中一些是好的，比如一天喝多少水、該做什么運(yùn)動(dòng)、怎樣才能接近我感興趣的人等等，這使得那些男人努力成為最好的自己。但其他很大一部分是由一個(gè)厭女和憤怒的影響者所助長(zhǎng)的，他們吸引了年輕男性的注意力。

Our research finds that 40 to 50 percent of young men in the US say they trust one or more of those negative voices online. Why are they going there? They are lost. They are struggling. They are confused. Think about what we often do when boys or men cause harm. If you're young, we give you a time-out. You get a little bit older, we give you a detention. You step into the workplace, you do harm, and we fire you. You do something else, we incarcerate you. 

我們的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，40% 到 50% 的美國(guó)年輕男性表示他們相信一個(gè)或多個(gè)負(fù)面的網(wǎng)絡(luò)聲音。他們?yōu)槭裁匆@樣？因?yàn)樗麄兠允Я朔较?、他們?cè)趻暝?、他們很困惑。想想?dāng)男孩或男人造成危害時(shí)社會(huì)經(jīng)常會(huì)做什么。如果你還年輕，社會(huì)會(huì)給你一個(gè)中場(chǎng)休息；你長(zhǎng)大一點(diǎn)，我們會(huì)給你一個(gè)拘留；你踏入職場(chǎng)，你造成了危害，就會(huì)被解雇。你做了其他不好的事，我們就把你關(guān)起來(lái)。

These acts are often necessary to reduce harm, but they cut men off from the connection and humanity that we need, even when men have caused harm. I am not in saying this, I'm not affirming or believing that we should give any man a free walk for harm that is caused. We must hold men accountable for the harm caused, no question about that. We must call out with deep compassion when men do cause harm. We've also got to call into being connected, caring humans.

這些行為往往是減少傷害的必要手段，但它們切斷了男人與我們所需要的聯(lián)系和人性，即使男人造成了傷害。我不是說(shuō)我們應(yīng)該讓任何造成傷害的男人逍遙法外，男人必須對(duì)造成的傷害負(fù)責(zé)，這是毫無(wú)疑問(wèn)的。但當(dāng)男人確實(shí)造成傷害時(shí)，我們必須以深切的同情心呼吁，我們還必須呼吁人們成為相互聯(lián)系、充滿愛(ài)心的人。
