What if Santa was a woman - could she do the job? That's the question an advertising agency posed.
假如圣诞老人是个女的,她能胜任这个工作吗?近日,一家广告公司抛出了这个问题。
The answer, according to the four to ten-year-olds they asked, was a resounding 'No'.
在采访了一些4至10岁的小朋友后,该公司得到的答案是一个响亮的“不能。
Faced with this light-hearted Christmas quiz, the little ones wilted under the pressure of predictable gender stereotypes.
面对这么轻松的圣诞小测验,孩子们都在琢磨该怎么答(其实已经可以预见他们幼小的心灵里住着的刻板的性别歧视观点啦)。
One boy claimed a lady Santa wouldn't be strong enough to carry the sack ('She would need to go to the gym first'); another said she would 'get lost in the sky'.
一名小男孩认为圣诞“姥人不够强壮,因此拿不动装礼物的袋子(原话是“她得先去健身房锻炼一下);还有一个说圣诞“姥人可能会“在天空中迷路。
A little girl said Mrs Claus wouldn't be able to wrap the presents because her baby would get in the way and, more worryingly, one claimed a woman would fail because she would 'just get a headache'.
有个小女孩表示,圣诞“姥人可能会没时间包礼物,因为她的孩子一直过来打扰她;还有个更操心的小朋友,觉得圣诞“姥人成为不了圣诞老人是因为孩子们让她“太伤脑筋了(译者注:可能妈妈在训斥她时,说过这样的话)。
The one comment that could make women cross, though, was the child who reckoned a woman Santa would be good at 'bossing around the elves'.
还有一个可能会让众女性们抓狂的回答——这位小朋友认为圣诞“姥人一定会对手下的精灵们“颐指气使
