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

Bok began to read on the unsavory subject. It was exceedingly unpleasant reading, but for two years Bok persisted, only to find that Doctor Abbott was right. The root of the evil lay in the reticence of parents with children as to the mystery of life; boys and girls were going out into the world blind-folded as to any knowledge of their physical selves; "the bloom must not be rubbed off the peach," was the belief of thousands of parents, and the results were appalling. Bok pursued his investigations from books direct into the "Homes of Refuge," "Doors of Hope," and similar institutions, and unearthed a condition, the direct results of the false modesty of parents, that was almost unbelievable.

白话

博克开始阅读这个令人不快的话题。读起来非常难受,但他坚持了两年,才发现阿博特医生是对的。问题的根源在于父母对孩子讳莫如深,不谈论生命的奥秘;男孩女孩对自身生理知识一无所知,就像蒙着眼睛走向世界;成千上万的父母相信“桃子上的绒毛不能蹭掉”,结果令人震惊。博克从书本研究直接深入到“庇护所”、“希望之门”等机构,发现了一种几乎难以置信的状况,正是父母虚假羞耻感的直接后果。

上下文

博克在编辑《妇女家庭杂志》时,受阿博特医生启发,调查青少年性教育缺失问题。
