爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导

Bok had won his fight, it is true, but he derived little satisfaction from the character of his victory. His ideal of womanhood had received a severe jolt. Women had revealed their worst side to him, and he did not like the picture. He had appealed to what he had been led to believe was the most sacred instinct in a woman's nature. He received no response. Moreover, he saw the deeper love for personal vanity and finery absolutely dominate the mother-instinct. He was conscious that something had toppled off its pedestal which could never be replaced.

白话

博克赢了斗争,却并不开心。他原本相信女性最有爱心、最顾念生命,可现实让他看到女性为了虚荣和漂亮,压过了母性本能。他感到自己心中理想化的女性形象崩塌了,而且再也补不回来。核心是:把某个群体理想化,容易在现实面前受重挫。做法是:别把希望寄托在“人性本善”上,要接受人都有弱点,用制度而非幻想去推动改变。这样即使失望,也不会否定全部。

上下文

博克在反对羽饰运动中,遭到许多女性读者抵制,因为她们喜欢这种装饰。

今日一问

你是否把某个人或群体想得太完美?如果现实不符,你还能继续做事吗?
