【经济学人】特朗普=厌女癖？丨2017.01.21丨总第795期

OF ALL the things uttered by Donald Trump during the election campaign, none seemed to threaten his chances of victory more than his admission, on tape, that he had grabbed women “by the pussy” without their consent.

唐纳德在大选期间讲得所有事情中，没有任何事情比他在广播中承认他在没有经过女性的同意“玩弄女性”更能够威胁到他赢得选举的胜利。

Yet Republicans—and voters—eventually looked past his attitude towards women. Many Americans, however, remain worried that a Trump presidency heralds a new age of sexism and misogyny .

虽然共和党人——和投票者们——终究对他关于女性的态度睁一只眼闭一只眼，但是，许多美国人依旧担心特朗普任职预示着一个崭新的性别歧视以及厌女癖的时代的来临。

• heralds ：预示着

• misogyny：厌女症

In the days after the election, donations to women’s non-profit groups surged. So did demand for contraception , as women worried that access to birth-control would be curtailed （读者试译） . On January 21st, the day after the inauguration, some 200,000 American men and women are expected to turn up at a march in Washington to protest against regressive policies and demand equal treatment for women—and a lot more besides.

（期待您的翻译，明天会有针对这句话的长难句解析哟~） 1月21日，在特朗普宣誓就职后的第一天，大约有20万美国男女将会在华盛顿举行游行，以反对倒行逆施的政策并要求平等对待女性——除此之外，还有许多其他的诉求。

• contraception：避孕

• curtailed：缩减

• regressive：倒退的

The march grew from two unrelated Facebook posts into the “Women’s March on Washington”, which promises to be the biggest single anti-Trump demonstration yet. It has also spawned sister marches in New York, San Francisco, London and dozens of other cities. But arranging it has proved thorny .

这次的游行从两个不相关的脸书帖子发展成为“华盛顿妇女游行”，这很有可能成为反特朗普游行中最大的的一次，并且该游行也催生了纽约、旧金山、伦敦以及许多其他城市同类型的游行。但是，组织这场游行十分棘手。

• spawned：催生

• thorny：棘手的
  

It was originally called the “Million Women March”, until organisers were admonished for appropriating the name of the 1997 “Million Woman March”, which focused on African-American women. Others claimed that it too closely resembled the 1963 “March on Washington” led by Martin Luther King Jr. The event’s Facebook page is rife with comments advising white women to “check their privilege”. Some women, put off by all the bickering , decided not to attend. 这场游行原本叫“百万妇女游行”，直到组织者们被警告他们挪用了1997年旨在关注非洲裔美国女性的“百万妇女游行”的名称。其他人认为其名称与1963年由马丁·路德金教授领导的“华盛顿游行”极其相似。在脸书帖上充满了建议白人女性“确认自己的特权”的评论。有些女性，不相信这些争论，决定不参与游行

• admonished：告诫

• appropriating：挪用

• rife with：充斥着

• bickering：争吵

It is the kind of semantic nitpicking that has made progressive movements unappealing to many Americans. Yet it may have done some good: the march has brought together a broad coalition. Nearly 450 organisations, from the Council on American Islamic Relations to Greenpeace and the Coalition Against Gun Violence, have signed on as official partners.

这是一种语义上的“挑刺”，使得进步的运动失去了对许多美国人的吸引力。虽然这也能带来一些好处：游行已经结成了更加广泛的联盟。从美国伊斯兰关系委员会到绿色和平组织以及反对枪支暴力联合会的将近450个组织已经签署成为正式的伙伴。

• nitpicking：挑剔的
  

In addition to well-trodden feminist concerns like the wage gap and paid parental leave, the protest platform embraces other causes—immigrant rights, ending police brutality, climate protection—as integral to women’s progress. The organisers argue that matters of social justice and women’s rights go hand in hand. In the comfortable Obama years, many liberal Americans believed feminism’s work was mostly finished. Mr Trump’s ascent banished such complacency. He may be the unifying enemy they need.

抗议的平台除了讨论一些老生常谈的女权主义问题，如工资差距、带薪产假以外，还囊括了其他问题——移民权利、终结警察暴力、气候保护，使其成为女性进步不可或缺的因素。组织者们认为社会公正与女性权利是相辅相成的。奥巴马在位的美好时光里，许多自由主义的美国人认为女权主义的事业近乎完成。特朗普先生的上位摧毁了他们的自满情绪。特朗普可能会成为他们统一的敌人。

• integral：不可或缺的
