这个视频是摘自TED视频,讲述的是一位女士对于女孩子从小接受的教育的反思。
大部分女孩子从小受到的教育就是避免风险和失败,她们学习优雅地微笑,谨慎行事,获得全A的成绩;相反,男孩子从小被教导要玩得野、荡秋千要荡得高,爬杆要爬到顶,然后一跃而下。
Most girls are taught to avoid risk and failure.We're taught to smile pretty,play it safe,get all A's.Boys, on the other hand ,are taught to play rough,swing high,crawl to the top of the monkey bars and then just jump off headfirst.
当他们长大成人,无论他们是在谈判加薪,或是约某人出去玩,他们习惯于接受一个一个挑战,他们为此得到回报奖赏。
And by the time they're adults,whether they're negotiating a raise or even asking someone out on a date,they're habituated to take risk after risk.They're rewarded for it.
在硅谷有这样的说法,没人把你当回事,除非你创业失败两次以上。换句话说,我们教育培养女孩子们追求完美,我们教育培养男孩子们要勇敢。
It's often said in Silicon Valley,no one even takes you seriously unless you've had two failed start-ups.In other words,we're raising our girls to be perfect,and we're raising our boys to be brave.
