第一篇：Emma Watson2016聯合國女權主義演講稿

艾瑪沃特森演講全文(中英雙語)

Thank you all for being here for this important moment.These men from all over the world have decided to make gender equality a priority in their lives and in their universities.Thank you for making this commitment.非常感謝你們能在此見證這樣一個重要的時刻。這些來自世界各地的人們已經決定把性別平權作為他們人生當中和大學校園里的一個重要議題。感謝你們的付出。

I graduated from university four years ago.I had always dreamed of going, and I know how fortunate I am to have had the opportunity to do so.四年前，我大學畢業。我曾經一直夢想著自己可以去大學讀書，并慶幸自己能有機會實現。

Brown became my home, my community, and I took the ideas and the experiences I had there into all of my social interactions, into my work place, into my politics, into all aspects of my life.I know that my university experience shaped who I am.And of course it does for many people.布朗大學成為了我的家，我的歸屬。我把我在布朗大學里的想法和經歷貫徹到我的社交、工作、政治以及生活的方方面面。我知道我在大學時期的經歷塑造了今天的自己。當然，很多人都是如此。

But what if our experience in university shows us that women don't belong in leadership? What if it shows us that, yes, women can study, but they shouldn't lead a seminar? What if, as still in many places around the world, it tells us that women don't belong there at all? What if, as is the case in far too many universities, we are given the message that sexual violence isn't actually a form of violence?

但是，如果大學告訴我們女性不能成為領袖;告訴我們是的，女性可以求學，但不能主持研討會;告訴我們，就像世界上很多地區仍然表現的那樣，女性根本不能上大學;像太多校園里的情況那樣，讓我們接受性暴力其實不屬于暴力，我們該怎么辦?

But, we know that if you change students' experiences so that they have different expectations of the world around them, expectations of equality, society will change.但是我們知道，如果大學改變了學生的經歷，讓他們對周遭的世界、對男女平等有了不同的期待，那么整個社會就將改變。

As we leave home for the first time to study at the places that we have worked so hard to get, we must not see or experience double standards.We need to see equal respect, leadership and pay.當我們第一次離開家去千辛萬苦考取的學校求學時，我們不應當目睹和經歷雙重標準。我們應該看到同等的尊重、領導力和回報。The university experience must tell women that their brain power is valued, and not just that, but that they belong within the leadership of the university itself.大學不僅要告訴女性她們的頭腦是有價值的，還要告訴她們在大學里女性也可以成為領袖人物。

And so importantly right now, the experience must make it clear, that the safety of women, minorities, and anyone who may be vulnerable is a right, not a privilege.現如今同樣重要的是，大學必須清楚地讓學生知道：女性、少數族群和其他弱勢群體的安全問題絕不是特權，而是他們的基本權利。

A right that will be respected by a community that believes and supports survivors, and that recognizes that when one person's safety is violated, everyone feels their own safety is violated.這種基本權利將被一個支持幸存者并且相信若某一人的安全被侵犯，所有人都感同身受的社會所尊重。

A university should be a place of refuge that takes action against all forms of violence.That's why we believe that students should leave university believing in, striving for and expecting societies of true equality.Society of true equality in every sense.And universities have the power to be a vital catalyst for that change.大學應該是一個反對各種暴力行為的庇護所。這就是為什么我們認為一個離開大學的畢業生應該堅信且期待一個真正平等的社會，并為之努力奮斗。真正的平等應該體現在社會各個方面，大學有能力成為這種變革的重要加速器。

Our ten impact champions have made this commitment and with their work, we know that they will inspire students, and other universities and schools across the world to do better.我們的十位影響力冠軍為此做出了巨大貢獻。通過他們的工作，我們知道他們將會激勵學生和世界上其他的大學和學院做得更好。

I am delighted to introduce this report on our progress, and I am eager to hear what's next.Thank you so much.我很高興能夠引薦這個進展報告，也非常期待他們接下來的展示。非常感謝。

Thank you so much!

非常感謝你們!

Emma Watson聯合國女權主義會議演講

英文演講稿

以下這篇英文演講稿是美國著名女演員emma watson在聯合國女權主義演講原文，由應屆畢業生演講稿網站整理提供，希望大家能夠喜歡。

today we are launching a campaign called “he for she.”

i am reaching out to you because i need your help.we want to end gender inequality—andto do that we need everyone to be involved.this is the first campaign of its kind at the un: we want to try and galvanize as manymen and boys as possible to be advocates for gender equality.and we don’t just want to talk about it, but make sure it is tangible.i was appointed six months ago and the more i have spoken about feminism, the more i have realized that fighting for women’s rights has too often become synonymous with man-hating.if there is one thing i know for certain, it is that this has to stop.for the record, feminism by definition is: “the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities.it is the theory of the political, economic and social equality of the sexes.”

i started questioning gender-based assumptions when at eight i was confused at being called “bossy,” because i wanted to direct the plays we would put on for our parents—but the boys were not.when at 14, i started being sexualized by certain elements of the press.when at 15, my girlfriends started dropping out of their sports teams because they didn’t want to appear “muscly.”

when at1 8, my male friends were unable to express their feelings.i decided i was a feminist and this seemed uncomplicated to me.but my recent research has shown me that feminism has become an unpopular word.apparently, i am among the ranks of women whose expressions are seen as too strong, too aggressive, isolating, anti-men and, unattractive.why is the word such an uncomfortable one?

i am from britain and think it is right that as a woman i am paid the same as my male counterparts.i think it is right that i should be able to make decisions about my own body.i think it is right that women be involved on my behalf in the policies and decision-making of my country.i thinkit is right that socially i am afforded the same respect as men.but sadly i can say that there is no one country in the world where all women can expect to receive these rights.no country in the world can yet say they have achieved gender rights i consider to be human rights but i am one of the lucky ones.my life is a sheer privilege because my parents didn’t love me less because i was born a daughter.my school did not limit me because i was a girl.my mentors didn’t assume i would go less far because i might give birth to a child one day.these influencers were the gender equality ambassadors that made who i am today.they may not know it, but they are the inadvertent feminists who are.and we need more of those.and if you still hate the word—it is not the word that is important but the idea and the ambition behind it.because not all women have been afforded the same rights that i have.in fact, statistically, very few have been.in 1997, hilary clinton made a famous speech in beijing about women’s rights.sadly many of the things she wanted to change are still a reality today.but what stood out for me the most was that only 30 percent of her audience were male.how can we affect change in the world when only half of it is invited or feel welcome to participate in the conversation?

men—i would like to take this opportunity to extend your formal invitation.gender equality is your issue too.because today, i’ve seen my father’s role as a parent being valued less by society despite my needing his presence as a child as much as my mother’s.i’ve seen young men suffering from mental illness unable to ask for help for fear itwould make them look less “macho”—in fact in the uk suicide is the biggest killer of men between 20-49;eclipsing road accidents, cancer and coronary heart disease.i’ve seen men made fragile and insecure by a distorted sense of what constitutes male success.men don’t have the benefits of equality either.we don’to ften talk about men being imprisoned by gender stereotypes but i can see that that they are and that when they are free, things will change for women as anatural consequence.if men don’t have to be aggressive in order to be accepted women won’t feel compelled to be submissive.if men don’t have to control, women won’t have to be controlled.both men and women should feel free to be sensitive.both men and women should feel free to be strong… it is time that we all perceive gender on a spectrum not as twoopposing sets of ideals.if we stop defining each other by what we are not and start defining ourselves by what we are—we can all be freer and this is what heforshe is about.it’s about freedom.i want men to take up this mantle.so their daughters, sisters and mothers can be free from prejudice but also so that their sons have permission to be vulnerable and human too—reclaim those parts of themselves they abandoned and in doing so be amore true and complete version of themselves.you might be thinking who is this harry potter girl? and what is she doing up on stage atthe un.it’s a good question and trust me i have been asking myself the samething.i don’t know if i am qualified to be here.all i know is that i care about this problem.and i want to make it better.and having seen what i’ve seen—and given the chance—i feel it is my duty to say something.english statesman edmund burke said: “all that is needed for the forces of evilto triumph is for enough good men and women to do nothing.”

in my nervousness for this speech and in my moments of doubt i’ve told myself firmly—if not me, who, if not now, when.if you have similar doubts when opportunities are presented to you i hope those words might be helpful.because the reality is that if we do nothing it will take 75 years, or for me to be nearlya hundred before women can expect to be paid the same as men for the same million girls will be married in the next 16 years as children.and at current rates it won’t be until 2086 before all rural african girls will be able to receive a secondary education.if you believe in equality, you might be one of those inadvertent feminists i spoke ofearlier.and for this i applaud you.we are struggling for a uniting word but the good news is we have a uniting movement.it is called heforshe.i am inviting you to step forward, to be seen to speakup, to be the he for she.and to ask yourself if not me, who, if not now when.thank you.

第三篇：艾瑪沃特森在聯合國女權主義演講

《哈利波特》中赫敏的扮演者、聯合國婦女親善大使艾瑪?沃森在2014年9月20日紐約聯合國總部為“他為她”運動舉行的特別活動上的演講。Actress Emma Watson's plea for equality winsmen's support

Today we are launching a campaign called “He For She.”

I am reaching out to you because I need your help.We want to end gender inequality—and to do that we need everyone to be involved.This is the first campaign of its kind at the UN: we want to try and galvanize as many men and boys as possible to be advocates（提倡者）for gender equality.And we don’t

want to talk about it, but make sure it is tangible.（有形的）

今天，我們啟動了一項名為“他為她”的運動。

我向你伸出手，因為我需要你的幫助。我們希望終結性別不平等——為此，我們需要所有人都參與其中。這是聯合國同類運動中的第一項：我們希望努力并激勵盡可能多的男人和男孩倡導性別平等。而且希望這（性別平等）不只是空談，而是確確實實的看得見摸得著。

I was appointed six months ago and the more I have spoken about feminism

the more I have realized that fighting for women’s rights has too often become synonymous with man-hating.If there is one thing I know for certain, it is that this has to stop.For the record, feminism by definition

is:“The belief that men and women should have equal rightsand（人權）

opportunities.It is the theory of the political, economic and social

equality of the sexes.”

六個月前，我被任命為聯合國婦女親善大使。而隨著我談論女權主義越多，我越發現，“爭取女性權益”太容易被當作是“憎恨男人”的同義詞。如果說有一件事是我確實知道的，那就是，這樣的誤解必須停止。

必須鄭重聲明，女權主義的定義是：“相信男性和女性應該擁有平等權利和機會。它是性別間政治、經濟和社會平等的理論。”

I started questioning gender-based assumptions

when at eight I was confused at being called“bossy,” because I wanted to direct the plays we would put on for our parents—but the boys were not.When at 14 I started being sexualized by certain elements of the press.When at 15 my girlfriends started dropping out of their sports teams because they didn’t want to appear “muscly.”

When at 18 my male friends were unable to express their feelings.8歲時，我開始質疑某些基于性別的假設。我不明白，為什么我想在為家長上演的戲劇里擔任導演，就會被說成“專橫”，而男孩們則不會； 14歲時，我開始被媒體報道的某些元素性別化；

15歲時，我的女性朋友們開始退出各自的運動隊，因為她們不希望顯得“肌肉發達”；

18歲時，我的男性朋友們無法表達他們的感受。

I decided I was a feminist and this seemed uncomplicated to me.But my recent research has shown me that feminism has become an unpopular word.Apparently I am among the ranks of women whose expressions are seen as too strong, too aggressive, isolating, anti-men unattractive even.Why has the world become such an uncomfortable one? 我認為自己是一名女權主義者，這（身份認定）對我來說并不難。但我最近的調查發

現，女權主義已經成為一個不受歡迎的詞。

顯然，我成了那些言辭看起來過于強勢、過于激進、孤立、反男性、不吸引人的女性行列中的一員。

為什么這個世界如此令人不安？

I am from Britain and think it is right that I am paid the same as my male counterparts.I think it is right that I should be able to make decisions about my own body.I think it is right that women be involved on my behalf in the policies and decision-making of my life.I think it is right that socially I am afforded the same respect as men.But sadly I can say that there is no one country in the world where all women can expect to receive these rights.No country in the world can yet say they have achieved gender equality.我來自英國，我認為身為女性，我應該和男性同行獲得一樣的報酬。我認為我應該自己為自己的身體做決定。我認為應該有女性代表我參與政治，以及我的國家的決策制定。我認為在社會上，我應該和男性獲得相同的尊重。但遺憾的是，世界上沒有一個國家能使所有的女性都能獲得上述權利。

世界上沒有一個國家能說，他們已經實現了性別平等。

（中間一大段去掉......）

If you believe in equality, you might be one of those inadvertent feminists I spoke of earlier.And for this I applaud you.We are struggling for a uniting world but the good news is we have a uniting movement.It is called

He For She.I am inviting you to step forward, to be seen。

And to ask yourself if not me, who, if not now when.Thank you very very much

如果你相信平等，你可能是我前頭說到的那些無心的女權主義者的一員。

為此，我為你鼓掌喝彩。我們正在努力爭取一個團結的世界，好消息是，我們已經有了一個團結的運動。它叫做“他為她”。我邀請你站出來，展示自己，暢所欲言，成為一個為女性權益奮斗的男性。以及，問自己：如果不是我，那又該是誰；如果不是現在，那又該是何時！

非常謝謝。

第四篇：Feminism女權主義演講稿

Feminism 袁

Good morning, everyone.It’s my honor to stand here to give a presentation to you all.As you know, recently, Hillary Clinton has just announced that she would campaign for 2016 president of America.So that we find out the status of women in politics increased significantly.So there comes a new conception, feminism.And today, our group will introduce you this, maybe to you,strange topic.So our presentation has 3 parts, and I’m in charge of the first.Perhaps you would ask,why we talk about feminism? What’s the importance of that? I want to tell you a story.In 2012,December 16th,a college girl named Joyti Singh from new Delhi, the capital of India, went in a personal bus at 9 o’clock, after watching a movie, with a male friend.Just in this horrible bus , unfortunately, she was raped by 6 men and they even tortured her.Then she died soon in a hospital.After she died, however, one of criminal said like that, you can’t clap with one hand.It takes two hands to clap.A decent girl won’t roam around at 9 o’clock at night.A girl is far more responsible for rape than a boy.This girl was only 23 years old.This event set off a huge protest.People prayed for her and fight for the justice and woman’s right.Joyti Singh was then called India’s daughter.We can’t help thinking, why could such a thing happen in this civilized world? What’s exactly the meaning of a woman? Moreover, a more inhuman act still exist in some parts of Africa, which is female circumcision.This brutal act brings a lot of hurt to young women.That’s why we talk about feminism.So what’s the feminism? Please have my partner continue.Thank you.王

Now, as you see, this symbol represents feminism.It is based on Venus symbol.A Venus symbol is just like this.And there is a fist in the central, which means woman’s right.So how does feminism develop in history? Firstly, let’s look at western feminism.In the history of human society, the concept of human rights has been 200 years of history, but it does not include the feminist.We all know that there is quite a lot empresses in western history.So maybe status of women in the west is higher.In 1971, a great woman, Olympe de Gouges who wrote thedeclaration of rights of woman appealed for feminism initialy.And then, there came more feminist literatures.As known, Jane Austin and Bronte sisters.They are female writers and wrote books about women mainly.Jane Austin wrote Pride and prejudice.Jane Eyre, Gone with wind and Wuthering Heights by brontes.Until 19,20 century,women started the feminist movement and to fight for political rights.Many countries won the rights of vote for women.And now, we are all familiar with the iron lady, Margaret Thatcher and Hillary Clinton.While back in China, feminism has a tougher development.This is our ancient women and what they believed in.Maybe ridiculous for now, right? We did have some powerful women, like 呂后，武則天，慈禧.But they were not accepted by the traditional views of society.After 1912, as society developed, feminism improved a lot, too.Women started to aquire education and advanced ideas.So we know such a lot progressive females, such as Song sisters, Qiujin and so on.And then, how is feminism like today? I’d love to let my another partner to introduce.Thank you all.賈

Thank my partners for paving the way for me.From their presentation, you may get a general idea about feminism.However, you may ask, we are living in this relatively stable community, we girls don’t really worry about go out at night or horrible bodily harm.And historic great women have strived for lots of rights.Maybe we are satisfied.We don’t need feminism at all.But does not female discrimination really exist in China? Actually, our fights for women are not enough yet.Since ancient times, women are not allowed to take part in politics.Even now, men has an absolute advantage in politics.Furthermore, woman’s career is harder than men’s all the time.What’s more, the social status of woman is always below that of man.In our culture, while a high-educated woman is under the pressure of public opinion.Why do people have a total different attitude towards a man and a woman who are in the same situation.We always pay attention to leftover women but never say leftover men.Similarly, social perspective to a woman who has a successful career is more in her personal life, maybe her unsuccessful marriage, instead of her work.Are women only able to help the husband and take care of children at home? I think it is right that women should get as same respect as men.But sadly I can say that there is no one country in the world where all women can expect to receive these rights.Do you guys know her? This is Emma Watson.Perhaps you don’t.But you must know this.And now, she is a UN Women Goodwill Ambassador.And she launched a campaign called “HeForShe” in 2014,which is a wide feminism movement.She points out that the definition of feminism is: “The belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities.It is the theory of the political, economic and social equality of the sexes.”

In my opinion, the biggest obstacle of Chinese feminism is women ourselves.We girls are supposed to clearly recognize the importance of struggle for feminism and really do something for it.Also, boys—I would like to take this opportunity to invite your join.Gender equality is your issue too.We want to try and encourage as many men and boys as possible to be advocates for gender equality.I suppose you guys, boys or girls, would believe the equality and freedom.You are going to be fathers and mothers.You are going to teach your children.You have the responsibility to tell next generation that whether you are a boy or a girl, you should fight for a uniting and equal world!That’s all what I want to say.Thanks for your listening.Thank you all.

第五篇：Emma Watson在聯合國關于女權主義的講話(中英)

All that is need for theforces of evil to triumph is for good men and women to do nothing.--Edmund Burke

Today we are launching a campaign（called “HeForShe”.I am reaching out to you because we need your help.We want to end gender inequality, and to do this, we need everyone involved.This is the first campaign of this kind in the UN, We want to try to mobilize as many men and boys as possible to be advocates for change.We don’t just want to talk about it.We want to try and make sure that it’s tangible.今天，我們發起了HeForShe的活動，希望每個人都能知道，因為我們需要你們的幫助。我們想要結束性別不平等，為了達到這個目的，我們需要所有人參與。這也是聯合國第一次此類活動。我們必須動員盡可能多的男性朋友，成為變化的響應者。我們不要紙上談兵，我們需要確信我們倡導的變化是可行的。I was appointed as Goodwill Ambassador for UN Women 6 months ago.半年前，我被聯合國婦女署任命為親善大使。

The more I spoke about feminism, the more I have realized that fighting for women’s rights has too often become synonymous with man-hating.If there is one thing I know for certain is that this has to stop.For the record, feminism by definition is the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities.It is the theory of political, economic and social equality of the sexes.我發現越多地提及“女權主義”，越容易被人們誤解為對男性的厭惡。我認為這樣的理解必須改變。“女權主義”正式的解釋是：女性應該擁有和男性同等的權力和機會。這是兩性在政治、經濟和社會平等中都適用的理論。

I started questioning gender-based assumption a long time ago.When I was 8, I was confused being called bossy because I wanted to direct a play that we were put on for our parents, but the boys were not.When I was 14, I started to be sexualized by certain elements of the media.At 15, my girlfriends started dropping out of a lot of sports teams because they didn’t want to appear masculine.At 18, my male friends were unable to express their feelings.很久以前我就開始質疑性別帶來的主管臆斷。在我還是8歲的時候，我被家人形容為“專橫的”，這讓我感到困惑，因為我想主導某些父母扮演的角色，但男生不會。在我15歲的時候，我的女性朋友不再想加入運動隊因為她們不想變得太強壯。18歲時，我的男性朋友無法很好地表達他們自己的感受。

I decided that I was a feminist.This seemed uncomplicated to me.But my recent research has shown me that feminism has become an unpopular word.Women are choosing not to identify as feminists.Apparently, I’m among the rank of women whose expression is seen as too strong, too aggressive, isolating, and anti-men, unattractive even.我當時就決定我要做一個“女權主義者”。這對我來說不復雜。但我最近的研究告訴我“女權主義”變成不受歡迎的詞匯了。婦女都選擇回避承認自己是一個“女權主義者”。顯然，我是屬于那種被認為言辭太激烈、太具侵略性、孤立、反男性化，甚至是不受歡迎的女性。

Why has the word become such an uncomfortable one? I’m from Britain and I think it is right that I am paid the same as my male counterparts.I think it is right that I should make decisions about my own body.I think it is right that women be involved on my behalf in the policies and decisions that will affect my life.I think it is right that socially, I am afforded the same respect as men.為什么“女權主義”這個詞匯變得如此不受歡迎？我認為在一樣的崗位上我有權獲得和男性同樣的報酬，我有權決定對自己的身體負責，我以自己的名義呼吁，女性有權參政、或做出影響一生的決定是理所當然，我認為在社交中女性有權獲得和男性一樣的尊重。

But sadly, I can say that there is no one country in the world where all women can expect to receive these rights.No country in the world can yet say that they have achieved gender equality.These rights, I considered to be human rights, but I am one of the lucky ones.但遺憾的是，到目前為止還沒有哪個國家的女性擁有如上所述的權力和尊重，沒有哪個國家可以說達到了真正的男女平等，這些我認為本該是人類的基本權力，（在這點上）我算是十分幸運的一個。

My life is a sheer privilege because my parents didn’t love me less because I was born a daughter.My school did not limit me because I was a girl.My mentors didn’t assume that I would go less far because I might give birth to a child one day.These influences were the gender equality ambassadors that made me who I am today.They may not know it but they are the inadvertent feminists who are changing the world today.We need more of those.我的生活十分優越，因為我的父母并沒有因為我是個女孩兒而少愛我一些，我所在的學校沒有因為我是女孩兒而限制我的發展，我的導師并沒有因為今后我可能生育而看低了我的前途。這些性別平等使者的影響成就了現在的我。也許他們并沒有意識到，但他們就是現今世界需要的“女權主義者”。我們需要更多這樣的人。And if you still hate the word, it is not the word that is important.It is the idea and the ambition behind it because not all women received the same rights I have.In fact, statistically, very few have being.詞語本身并不重要，重要的是這個詞背后隱含的理想和抱負，因為還不是所有女性都獲得了我現在擁有的權力。事實上，這樣的人數非常少。

In 1997, Hillary Clinton made a famous speech in Beijing about women’s rights.Sadly, many of the things that she wanted to change are still true today.But what stood out for me the most, was that less than 30% of the audiences were male.How can we effect change in the world when only half of it is invited or feel welcome to participate in the conversation? 1997年，希拉里克林頓在北京做了一個關于女性權力的演講。可惜的是，她當時想要改變的東西到現在依然是普遍現象。在現場的男性觀眾還不到30%，當只有不到一半人受邀或者愿意參與對話，我們怎么可能改變世界？

Men, I would like to take this opportunity to extend you a formal invitation.Gender equality is your issue, too.Because to date, I’ve seen my father’s role as a parent being valued less by society, despite my need his presence as a child as much as my mother’s.I’ve seen young men suffering from mental illness, unable to ask for help for fear it will make them less of a man, or less of men.In fact, in the U.K, suicide is the biggest killer of men between 20-49, road accidents, cancer, and coronary heart disease.I’ve seen men may fragile and insecure by distorted sense of what constitutes male success.Men don’t have the benefits of equality, either.男性同胞們，我想就此機會向你們發出邀請，性別同等也是你們的責任。因為至今，我看到我父親作為家長的價值被社會低估了，因為他的存在對幼小的我來說和母親的作用同樣重要。我看到年輕的男性內心十分痛苦，他們害怕求助，因為這樣會被認為是缺乏男子漢氣概。事實上，在英國，自殺是20-49歲男性最大死因，超過了交通事故、癌癥以及冠心病。我看到不少男性被扭曲的成功男性的看法所困擾。男性也同樣無法享受平等的利益。

We don’t want to talk about men being imprisoned by gender stereo types but I can see that they are.When they are free, things will change for women as a natural consequence.If men don’t have to be aggressive in order to be accepted, women won’t be compelled to be submissive.If men don’t have to control, women won’t have to be controlled.我們不想談論男性也被傳統的性別觀念束縛了，但他們的確是這樣。當他們的想法被解放了，女性問題也會自然而然地改善。如果男性不是那么強勢，女性也不比如此卑躬屈膝，如果男性不再掌控一切，女性也不需惟命是從。

Both men and women should feel free to be sensitive, both men and women should be free to be strong.It is time that we all see gender as a spectrum instead of two sets of opposing ideals.If we stop defining each other by what we are not and start defining ourselves by who we are, we can all be freer and this is what “HeForShe” is about.It’s about freedom.I want men to take up this mantle, so their daughters, sisters and mothers can be free from prejudice.But also so their sons have permission to be vulnerable and human, too.We claim those part of themselves they abandoned, and in doing so, be a more true and complete version of themselves.無論是男是女，我們都可以很感性，也可以很強大，是時候把性別問題看成是一件事而不是相對的兩個概念。我們不能再互相定義我們是什么樣的人（而不該是什么樣的），而應該自己定義自己是誰，我們都可以從中獲得自由，這也是HeForShe存在的意義，這是關乎自由的。我呼吁男性負起這份責任，讓他們的女兒、姐妹和母親們不再受到偏見的困擾，更讓他們的兒子也有脆弱并且人性的一面。我們希望奪回他們遺棄的這部分，這樣，他們才能展現自己最真實最完整的自己。

You might be thinking: who is this Harry Potter girl? What is she doing at the UN? I’ve been asking myself at the same thing.All I know is that I care about this problem and I want to make it better.And having seen what I’ve seen and given the chance, I feel my responsibility to say something.Statesman Edmund Burke said all that is need for the forces of evil to triumph is for good men and women to do nothing.也許你會想：這個“哈利波特女孩”是誰？她在聯合國做什么？我也在問自己同樣的問題。我只知道的是我關心“女權問題”并且希望改善它。當我看到了我所見并且被給予了這樣一個發言的機會，我覺得我有責任說些什么。政治家Edmund Burke說過這樣一句話：要獲得邪惡的力量，只需優秀的男女碌碌無為。

In my nervousness for this speech and in my moment of doubt, I told myself firmly: If not me, who? If not now, when? If you have similar doubts when opportunities are presented to you, I hope those words would be helpful.Because the reality is that if we do nothing, it will take 75 years, or for me it will be nearly 100 before women can be expected to be paid as same as men for the same work.15.5 million girls will be married in the 16 years as children.At current rate, it will be until 2086 before all rural African girls can have secondary education.If you believe in equality, you might be those inadvertent feminist that I spoken earlier, and for this, I applaud you.We are struggling for a uniting world, but the good news is we have a uniting movement.It is called “he for she”.I am inviting you to step forward, to be seen and to ask yourself: if not me, who? If not now, when? Thank you.
