爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导
Where he had failed with women, he was succeeding with men! The outrageous butchery of the birds and the circumstances under which they were tortured appealed with direct force to the sporting instinct in every man, and aroused him. Bok explained to each that he need expect no support for such a measure from women save from the members of the Audubon Societies, and a few humanitarian women and bird-lovers. Women, as a whole, he argued from his experiences, while they would not go so far as openly to oppose such a measure, for fear of public comment, would do nothing to further its passage, for in their hearts they preferred failure to success for the legislation. They had frankly told him so: he was not speaking from theory.

白话
博克在女人那里碰壁,却在男人那里成功。鸟被残杀、受折磨的细节,直接击中男人的狩猎本能,把他们激怒了。他告诉每位议员:别指望女人支持,除了奥杜邦协会成员和少数人道主义者、爱鸟者,多数女人虽不敢公开反对,怕舆论,但心里宁愿法案失败。她们亲口这么说过,不是他凭空推测。这提醒:推动改变要看清谁真正有动力,别把希望押在表面受益者身上。
上下文
博克游说立法禁止羽饰时发现,男性议员因义愤支持,而多数女性消费者因时尚偏好消极对待。
今日一问
你推动一件事时,有没有误以为受益者会支持,结果发现他们其实是阻力?
