Speech by UN Women Goodwill Ambassador Emma Watson at a special event for the HeForShe campaign, United Nations Headquarters, New York, 20 September, 2014 联合国妇女亲善大使艾玛?沃森在2014年9月20日纽约联合国总部为“他为她”运动举行的特别活动上的演讲 Today we are launching a campaign called “HeForShe.” I am reaching out to you because I need your help.

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岁时，我开始质疑基于性别的假设。我不明白，为什么我想在为家长上演的戏剧里担任导演，就会被说成“专横”，而男孩们则不会。14岁时，我开始被媒体的某些元素性别化。15岁时，我的女朋友们开始退出各自的运动队，因为她们不希望显得“肌肉发达”。18岁时，我的男性朋友们不能表达他们的想法。 I decided I was a feminist and this seemed uncomplicated to m
