Why Gender Equality Is Good for Everyone — Men Included | Michael Kimmel | TED Talks

Prevoditelj: Anja Kolobarić Recezent: Sonja Žarić

I'm here to recruit men to support gender equality.

Ovdje sam kako bih pridobio muškarce za podršku ravnopravnosti spolova.

(Cheers)

(Bodrenje)

Wait, wait. What?

Čekaj, što?

What do men have to do with gender equality?

Kakve muškarci veze imaju s ravnopravnosti spolova?

Gender equality is about women, right?

Ono se tiče žena, zar ne?

I mean, the word gender is about women.

Ipak se riječ "spol" tiče žena.

Actually, I'm even here speaking as a middle class white man.

Zapravo, ja ovdje govorim kao bijelac srednje klase.

Now, I wasn't always a middle class white man.

Nisam uvijek bio bijelac srednje klase.

It all happened for me about 30 years ago when I was in graduate school,

Za mene je sve to započelo prije tridesetak godina kad sam bio na studiju

and a bunch of us graduate students got together one day,

i nekolicina nas studenata jednog smo se dana okupili

and we said, you know, there's an explosion

i rekli - gle, dogodila se pomama

of writing and thinking in feminist theory,

za pisanjem i razmišljanjem o feminističkoj teoriji,

but there's no courses yet.

ali još uvijek nema kolegija o njoj.

So we did what graduate students typically do in a situation like that.

Učinili smo ono što studenti najčešće rade u takvoj situaciji.

We said, OK, let's have a study group.

Rekli smo - dobro, organizirajmo grupu za učenje.

We'll read a text, we'll talk about it,

Pročitat ćemo tekst, raspravljati o njemu,

we'll have a potluck dinner.

održati večeru na koju će svatko donijeti ponešto.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

So every week, 11 women and me got together.

Svaki tjedan smo se 11 žena i ja sastajali.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

We would read some text in feminist theory and have a conversation about it.

Pročitali bismo nešto o teoriji feminizma i razgovarali o tome.

And during one of our conversations,

Tijekom jednog od razgovora,

I witnessed an interaction that changed my life forever.

svjedočio sam interakciji koja mi je zauvijek promijenila život.

It was a conversation between two women.

Bio je to razgovor dviju žena.

One of the women was white, and one was black.

Jedna je bila bjelkinja, a druga crnkinja.

And the white woman said --

Bjelkinja je rekla -

this is going to sound very anachronistic now --

ovo će sad zvučati jako anakronično -

the white woman said, "All women face the same oppression as women.

bjelkinja je rekla: "Sve se žene suočavaju s istim ugnjetavanjima kao žene.

All women are similarly situated in patriarchy,

Sve su žene u sličnom položaju u patrijarhiji

and therefore all women have a kind of intuitive solidarity or sisterhood."

i zato sve žene posjeduju intuitivnu solidarnost ili sestrinstvo."

And the black woman said, "I'm not so sure.

Crnkinja je na to rekla: "Ja ne bih baš rekla.

Let me ask you a question."

Mogu li ti postaviti jedno pitanje?"

So the black woman says to the white woman,

I crnkinja je rekla bjelkinji:

"When you wake up in the morning and you look in the mirror,

"Kad se probudiš i pogledaš u ogledalo,

what do you see?"

što vidiš?"

And the white woman said, "I see a woman."

Bjelkinja reče: "Vidim ženu."

And the black woman said, "You see, that's the problem for me.

Crnkinja odgovori: "Vidiš, u tome je moj problem.

Because when I wake up in the morning and I look in the mirror," she said,

Kad se ja probudim i pogledam u ogledalo,

"I see a black woman.

vidim crnu ženu.

To me, race is visible. But to you, race is invisible. You don't see it."

Meni je rasa vidljiva, ali tebi nije. Ti ju ne vidiš."

And then she said something really startling.

Zatim je rekla nešto zaista iznenađujuće:

She said, "That's how privilege works.

"Privilegije tako funkcioniraju -

Privilege is invisible to those who have it."

nevidljive su onima koji ih imaju."

It is a luxury, I will say to the white people sitting in this room,

Govorim bijelcima u ovoj sali, luksuz je

not to have to think about race every split second of our lives.

ne morati razmišljati o rasi svake sekunde svog postojanja.

Privilege is invisible to those who have it.

Privilegija je nevidljiva onima koji je imaju.

Now remember, I was the only man in this group,

Znate, ja sam bio jedini muškarac u grupi,

so when I witnessed this, I went, "Oh no."

pa čuvši to, pomislih: "O ne!"

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

And somebody said, "Well what was that reaction?"

Zatim je netko rekao: "Kakva je to reakcija bila?"

And I said, "Well, when I wake up in the morning and I look in the mirror,

Odgovorih: "Pa kad se ja probudim i pogledam u ogledalo,

I see a human being.

vidim ljudsko biće.

I'm kind of the generic person.

Pomalo sam običan tip osobe.

You know, I'm a middle class white man. I have no race, no class, no gender.

Znate, bijeli muškarac srednje klase. Nemam ni rase ni klase ni spola.

I'm universally generalizable."

Može me se univerzalno generalizirati."

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

So I like to think that was the moment I became a middle class white man,

Držim da sam u tom trenutku postao bijelac srednje klase,

that class and race and gender were not about other people,

shvatio sam da se klasa, rasa i spol ne tiču drugih ljudi,

they were about me.

nego mene.

I had to start thinking about them,

Morao sam početi razmišljati o njima

and it had been privilege that had kept it invisible to me for so long.

i to je toliko dugo bila privilegija meni nevidljiva.

Now, I wish I could tell you this story ends 30 years ago

Volio bih vam reći da je ta priča završila prije 30 g.

in that little discussion group,

u toj maloj skupini za raspravu,

but I was reminded of it quite recently at my university where I teach.

ali na to su me nedavno podsjetili na sveučilištu na kojem predajem.

I have a colleague, and she and I both teach the sociology of gender course

Imam kolegicu i predajemo kolegij sociologije spola

on alternate semesters.

tijekom različitih semestara.

So she gives a guest lecture for me when I teach.

Ona dolazi kao gost predavač kad ja predajem,

I give a guest lecture for her when she teaches.

a ja dolazim kao gost predavač kad ona predaje.

So I walk into her class to give a guest lecture,

Dakle, dolazim na njezinu nastavu kao gost predavač,

about 300 students in the room,

u prostoriji je tristotinjak studenata

and as I walk in, one of the students looks up and says,

i kako ulazim, jedan od studenata podigne glavu i kaže:

"Oh, finally, an objective opinion."

"Napokon! Objektivno mišljenje!"

All that semester, whenever my colleague opened her mouth,

Cijeli taj semestar kad god bi moja kolegica otvorila usta,

what my students saw was a woman.

moji su studenti vidjeli ženu.

I mean, if you were to say to my students,

Da kažete mojim studentima

"There is structural inequality based on gender in the United States,"

da u SAD-u postoji strukturalna neravnopravnost na temelju spola,

they'd say, "Well of course you'd say that.

rekli bi vam: "Naravno da to govorite.

You're a woman. You're biased."

Žena ste. Pristrani ste."

When I say it, they go, "Wow, is that interesting.

Kad ja to kažem, oni pomisle: "Zanimljivo!

Is that going to be on the test? How do you spell 'structural'?"

Hoće li to biti na testu? Kako se piše 'strukturalno'?"

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

So I hope you all can see,

Nadam se da sad svi vi vidite

this is what objectivity looks like.

kako objektivnost izgleda.

(Laughter) (Applause)

(Smijeh) (Pljesak)

Disembodied Western rationality.

Bestjelesna zapadnjačka racionalnost.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

And that, by the way, is why I think men so often wear ties.

Usput budi rečeno, mislim da zbog toga muškarci nose kravate.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

Because if you are going to embody disembodied Western rationality,

Ako planirate utjeloviti bestjelesnu zapadnjačku racionalnost,

you need a signifier,

treba vam neki znak,

and what could be a better signifier of disembodied Western rationality

a ne postoji bolji znak bestjelesne zapadnjačke racionalnosti

than a garment that at one end is a noose and the other end points to the genitals?

od predmeta koji je s jedne strane omča, a s druge ukazuje na genitalije.

(Laughter) (Applause)

(Smijeh) (Pljesak)

That is mind-body dualism right there.

To je dualizam duha i tijela.

So making gender visible to men

Spol mora biti vidljiv muškarcima,

is the first step to engaging men to support gender equality.

a to je prvi korak u njihovu uključivanju u podržavanje ravnopravnosti spolova.

Now, when men first hear about gender equality,

Kad muškarci tek čuju za ravnopravnost spolova,

when they first start thinking about it,

kad počnu razmišljati o tome,

they often think, many men think,

puno muškaraca nerijetko pomisli

well, that's right, that's fair, that's just,

da je to pravedno, pošteno,

that's the ethical imperative.

da je to etički imperativ,

But not all men.

ali ne svi muškarci.

Some men think -- the lightning bolt goes off,

Neki pomisle - upali im se lampica

and they go, "Oh my God, yes, gender equality,"

pa kažu: "Pa naravno! Ravnopravnost spolova"

and they will immediately begin to mansplain to you your oppression.

i odmah vam počnu krivo tumačiti vaše ugnjetavanje.

They see supporting gender equality something akin to the cavalry,

Njima je ravnopravnost spolova slična mučeništvu:

like, "Thanks very much for bringing this to our attention, ladies,

"Dame, hvala vam što ste nam ukazale na ovaj problem,

we'll take it from here."

mi preuzimamo odavde",

This results in a syndrome that I like to call 'premature self-congratulation.'

što rezultira sindromom koji nazivam "preuranjenom samohvalom".

(Laughter) (Applause)

(Smijeh) (Pljesak)

There's another group, though, that actively resists gender equality,

Postoji i druga grupa muškaraca koji se aktivno odupiru ravnopravnosti spolova

that sees gender equality as something that is detrimental to men.

i koji tu ravnopravnost vide kao nešto štetno za muški rod.

I was on a TV talk show opposite four white men.

U TV-emisiji bio sam nasuprot četvorice bijelih muškaraca.

This is the beginning of the book I wrote, 'Angry White Men.'

To je početak knjige koju sam napisao, "Ljuti bijeli muškarci".

These were four angry white men

Ta četiri ljuta bijela muškarca

who believed that they, white men in America,

vjerovala su da su oni kao bijeli Amerikanci

were the victims of reverse discrimination in the workplace.

bili žrtve obrnute diskriminacije na radnom mjestu.

And they all told stories about how they were qualified for jobs,

Svi su pričali o tome kako su bili kvalificirani za poslove,

qualified for promotions,

promaknuća,

they didn't get them, they were really angry.

ali nisu ih dobili, pa su bili strašno ljuti.

And the reason I'm telling you this is I want you to hear the title

Ovo vam govorim jer želim da čujete naziv

of this particular show.

ove konkretne emisije.

It was a quote from one of the men,

Bio je to citat jednog od muškaraca,

and the quote was,

a glasio je:

"A Black Woman Stole My Job."

"Crnkinja mi je ukrala posao."

And they all told their stories,

Svi su ispričali svoje priče -

qualified for jobs, qualified for promotions,

bili su kvalificirani za poslove i promaknuća,

didn't get it, really angry.

nisu ih dobili, naljutili se.

And then it was my turn to speak,

Onda je došao moj red da nešto kažem,

and I said, "I have just one question for you guys,

pa sam rekao: "Momci, za vas imam samo jedno pitanje,

and it's about the title of the show,

a tiče se naziva emisije -

'A Black Woman Stole My Job.'

'Crnkinja mi je ukrala posao'.

Actually, it's about one word in the title.

Točnije, tiče se jedne riječi u nazivu.

I want to know about the word 'my.'

Zanima me riječ "mi".

Where did you get the idea it was your job?

Odakle vam to da je posao vaš?

Why isn't the title of the show, 'A Black Woman Got the Job?'

Zašto naziv ne glasi 'Crnkinja je dobila taj posao'?

or 'A Black Woman Got A Job?'"

Ili 'Crnkinja je dobila posao'?"

Because without confronting men's sense of entitlement,

Ako se ne usprotivimo muškoj ideji bogomdanih prava,

I don't think we'll ever understand why so many men resist gender equality.

nikad nećemo shvatiti zašto se toliki muškarci odupiru ravnopravnosti spolova.

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

Look, we think this is a level playing field,

Mislimo da je igra ravnopravna,

so any policy that tilts it even a little bit,

pa kad je propis okreće u bilo kojem smjeru,

we think, "Oh my God, water's rushing uphill.

pomislimo: "Jao, sve je naopako -

It's reverse discrimination against us."

obrnuta diskriminacija protiv nas."

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

So let me be very clear:

Bit ću jasan:

white men in Europe and the United States

bijelci u Europi i SAD-u

are the beneficiaries of the single greatest affirmative action program

uživatelji su najvećeg afirmativnog akcijskog programa

in the history of the world.

u povijesti svijeta

It is called "the history of the world."

koji se zove "povijest svijeta".

(Laughter) (Applause)

(Smijeh) (Pljesak)

So, now I've established some of the obstacles to engaging men,

Sad smo utvrdili neke osnovne prepreke u uključivanju muškaraca,

but why should we support gender equality?

ali zašto bismo trebali podržati ravnopravnost spolova?

Of course, it's fair, it's right and it's just.

Naravno, pošteno je, ispravno i pravedno,

But more than that,

ali to nije sve!

gender equality is also in our interest as men.

Ravnopravnost spolova i muškarcima je u interesu.

If you listen to what men say about what they want in their lives,

Ako slušate što muškarci govore da žele u životu, shvatit ćete

gender equality is actually a way for us to get the lives we want to live.

da je ravnopravnost spolova način da dođemo do života koje želimo živjeti.

Gender equality is good for countries.

Ravnopravnost spolova dobra je za države.

It turns out, according to most studies,

Prema većini studija, ispada da su

that those countries that are the most gender equal

one države s najvišom stopom ravnopravnosti spolova

are also the countries that score highest on the happiness scale.

ujedno i najsretnije države,

And that's not just because they're all in Europe.

a to nije samo zato što su sve one u Europi.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

Even within Europe, those countries that are more gender equal

Čak i u Europi one zemlje koje imaju višu razinu ravnopravnosti spolova

also have the highest levels of happiness.

imaju i najvišu razinu sreće.

It is also good for companies.

Dobra je i za tvrtke.

Research by Catalyst and others has shown conclusively

Istraživanje Catalysta i suradnika uvjerljivo je dokazalo

that the more gender-equal companies are,

da što tvrtke imaju višu stopu ravnopravnosti spolova,

the better it is for workers,

to bolje za radnike

the happier their labor force is.

radna snaga je sretnija.

They have lower job turnover. They have lower levels of attrition.

Zaposlenici rjeđe daju otkaze, manje su sklone slabljenju,

They have an easier time recruiting.

lakše zapošljavaju nove ljude,

They have higher rates of retention, higher job satisfaction,

imaju više stope zadržavanja, zadovoljstva poslom,

higher rates of productivity.

produktivnosti.

So the question I'm often asked in companies is,

U tvrtkama me često pitaju:

"Boy, this gender equality thing, that's really going to be expensive, huh?"

"Ta ravnopravnost spolova će zaista biti skupa, zar ne?"

And I say, "Oh no, in fact, what you have to start calculating

Odgovorim: "Ma ne, zapravo trebate početi računati

is how much gender inequality is already costing you.

koliko vas neravnopravnost spolova već sad košta.

It is extremely expensive."

Užasno je skupa."

So it is good for business.

Dakle, dobra je za posao.

And the other thing is, it's good for men.

I još nešto - dobra je i za muškarce.

It is good for the kind of lives we want to live,

Dobra je za živote kakve želimo živjeti

because young men especially have changed enormously,

jer su se prvenstveno mladi muškarci znatno promijenili

and they want to have lives that are animated

i žele živjeti živote ispunjene

by terrific relationships with their children.

sjajnim vezama sa svojom djecom.

They expect their partners, their spouses, their wives,

Očekuju da njihovi bračni partneri, odnosno žene

to work outside the home

rade van obiteljskog doma

and be just as committed to their careers as they are.

i da budu jednako posvećene svojim karijerama kao i oni sami.

I was talking, to give you an illustration of this change --

Da vam ilustriram ovu promjenu.

Some of you may remember this.

Neki od vas možda se sjećaju ovoga.

When I was a lot younger, there was a riddle that was posed to us.

Kad sam bio puno mlađi, postojala je zagonetka koja nam je postavljana.

Some of you may wince to remember this riddle.

Neki od vas možda će se naježiti kad je čuju.

This riddle went something like this.

Glasila je ovako nekako.

A man and his son are driving on the freeway,

Otac i sin voze se autocestom

and they're in a terrible accident,

i dožive strašnu nesreću.

and the father is killed,

Otac odmah umire,

and the son is brought to the hospital emergency room,

a sina odvoze na hitnu.

and as they're bringing the son into the hospital emergency room,

Dok ga uvoze u sobu za hitan prijem,

the emergency room attending physician sees the boy and says,

doktor pogleda dječaka i kaže:

"Oh, I can't treat him, that's my son."

"Ne mogu ga liječiti, to mi je sin."

How is this possible?

Kako je to moguće?

We were flummoxed by this.

Ovo nas je užasno zbunjivalo.

We could not figure this out.

Nismo imali pojma koji je odgovor.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

Well, I decided to do a little experiment with my 16-year old son.

Odlučio sam izvesti mali eksperiment sa svojim 16-ogodišnjim sinom.

He had a bunch of his friends hanging out at the house

Nedavno su mu prijatelji kod nas dolazili

watching a game on TV recently.

gledati utakmicu.

So I decided I would pose this riddle to them,

Odlučio sam im postaviti ovu zagonetku,

just to see, to gauge the level of change.

samo da vidim koliko se toga promijenilo.

Well, 16-year-old boys,

Šesnaestogodišnji dječaci

they immediately turned to me and said, "It's his mom." Right?

odmah su rekli: "To mu je mama, zar ne?"

No problem. Just like that.

Bez problema. Samo tako.

Except for my son, who said, "Well, he could have two dads."

Osim mog sina koji je rekao: "Pa možda ima dva oca."

(Laughter) (Applause)

(Smijeh) (Pljesak)

That's an index, an indicator of how things have changed.

To je pokazatelj koliko se toga promijenilo.

Younger men today expect to be able to balance work and family.

Mlađi muškarci današnjice očekuju mogućnost održavanja ravnoteže između braka i obitelji.

They want to be dual-career, dual-carer couples.

Žele biti par s dualnim karijerama.

They want to be able to balance work and family with their partners.

Žele biti u mogućnosti balansirati posao i obitelj sa svojim partnerima.

They want to be involved fathers.

Žele biti očevi uključeni u odgoj djece.

Now, it turns out

Ispada da što

that the more egalitarian our relationships,

vaša veza više potiče jednakost,

the happier both partners are.

to su sretnija oba partnera.

Data from psychologists and sociologists are quite persuasive here.

Podaci psihologa i sociologa ovdje su prilično uvjerljivi.

I think we have the persuasive numbers, the data, to prove to men

Mislim da imamo uvjerljive brojke, podatke, koji će muškarcima dokazati

that gender equality is not a zero-sum game, but a win-win.

da ravnopravnost spolova nije igra na rezultat, već je to pobjeda za sve.

Here's what the data show.

Ovo podaci dokazuju.

Now, when men begin the process of engaging

Kad se muškarci uključe u proces

with balancing work and family,

balansiranja između posla i obitelji,

we often have two phrases that we use to describe what we do.

često imamo dvije fraze kojima opisujemo što činimo.

We pitch in and we help out.

Doprinosimo i pomažemo.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

And I'm going to propose something a little bit more radical,

Predložit ću nešto malo radikalnije,

one word: "share."

jednu riječ: dijeljenje.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

Because here's what the data show:

Ovo nam pokazuju podaci:

when men share housework and childcare,

kad dijele kućne poslove i brigu o djeci,

their children do better in school.

djeca su im bolja u školi.

Their children have lower rates of absenteeism,

Djeca im manje izostaju iz škole,

higher rates of achievement.

imaju veće stope uspjeha.

They are less likely to be diagnosed with ADHD.

Rjeđe im se dijagnosticira ADHD.

They are less likely to see a child psychiatrist.

Rjeđe posjećuju dječjeg psihologa.

They are less likely to be put on medication.

Rjeđe koriste lijekove.

So when men share housework and childcare,

Dakle, kad muškarci dijele kućne poslove i brigu o djeci,

their children are happier and healthier,

djeca su im sretnija i zdravija,

and men want this.

a to muškarci i žele.

When men share housework and childcare,

Kad muškarci dijele kućne poslove i brigu o djeci,

their wives are happier. Duh.

žene su im sretnije. Normalno!

Not only that, their wives are healthier.

Ali ne samo to - i zdravije su.

Their wives are less likely to see a therapist,

Žene im rjeđe idu psihologu,

less likely to be diagnosed with depression,

rjeđe im je dijagnosticirana depresija,

less likely to be put on medication, more likely to go to the gym,

rjeđe koriste lijekove, češće idu u teretanu

report higher levels of marital satisfaction.

i tvrde da im je razina bračne sreće viša.

So when men share housework and childcare,

Kad dijele te obveze,

their wives are happier and healthier,

žene su im sretnije i zdravije,

and men certainly want this as well.

a muškarci definitivno i to žele.

When men share housework and childcare,

Kad dijele kućanske poslove i brigu o djeci,

the men are healthier.

i muškarci su zdraviji.

They smoke less, drink less, take recreational drugs less often.

Manje puše, manje piju, rjeđe koriste rekreacijske droge.

They are less likely to go to the ER

Rjeđe završe na hitnom prijemu,

but more like to go to a doctor for routine screenings.

ali češće idu doktoru na rutinske preglede.

They are less likely to see a therapist,

Rjeđe idu psihologu,

less likely to be diagnosed with depression,

rjeđe im je dijagnosticirana despresija,

less likely to be taking prescription medication.

rjeđe koriste lijekove.

So when men share housework and childcare,

Kad dijele te obveze,

the men are happier and healthier.

i muškarci su sretniji i zdraviji.

And who wouldn't want that?

A tko to ne bi želio?

And finally,

Konačno,

when men share housework and childcare,

kad muškarci dijele sve te obveze,

they have more sex.

više vode ljubav.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

Now, of these four fascinating findings,

Koja od ova četiri fascinantna otkrića

which one do you think Men's Health magazine put on its cover?

mislite da će Men's Health staviti na naslovnicu?

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

"Housework Makes Her Horny.

"Kućanski je poslovi uzbuđuju.

(Not When She Does It.)"

(Ali ne kad ih ona obavlja)"

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

Now, I will say,

Spomenut ću,

just to remind the men in the audience,

tek toliko da podsjetim muškarce u publici,

these data were collected over a really long period of time,

da su se ovi podaci skupljali tijekom dugog vremenskog perioda,

so I don't want listeners to say,

pa ne želim da slušatelji kažu:

"Hmm, OK, I think I'll do the dishes tonight."

"Hmm, dobro, mislim da ću večeras oprati suđe."

These data were collected over a really long period of time.

Ovi su podaci skupljani tijekom dugog vremenskog perioda,

But I think it shows something important,

ali mislim da pokazuju nešto važno.

that when Men's Health magazine put it on their cover,

Kad je časopis Men's Health ovo stavio na naslovnicu,

they also called, you'll love this, "Choreplay."

nazvali su je, svidjet će vam se: obvezna predigra.

So, what we found is something really important,

Otkrili smo nešto zaista važno -

that gender equality

ravnopravnost spolova

is in the interest of countries,

u interesu je država,

of companies, and of men,

tvrtki, muškaraca,

and their children and their partners,

njihove djece i partnera,

that gender equality is not a zero-sum game.

ravnopravnost spolova nije igra na rezultat.

It's not a win-lose.

Nema pobjednika i gubitnika.

It is a win-win for everyone.

Svi su pobjednici.

And what we also know

A znamo i

is we cannot fully empower women and girls

da ne možemo u potpunosti osnažiti žene i djevojke

unless we engage boys and men.

ako u to ne uključimo i dječake i muškarce.

We know this.

Znamo to.

And my position is

Ja mislim

that men need the very things that women have identified

da muškarci trebaju sve ono što žene tvrde

that they need to live the lives they say they want to live

da im treba da žive život kakav navodno žele živjeti

in order to live the lives that we say we want to live.

kako bismo živjeli živote kakve navodno želimo živjeti.

In 1915, on the eve of one of the great suffrage demonstrations

Godine 1915. na večer jedne od najvećih sufražetskih demonstracija

down Fifth Avenue in New York City,

na Petoj aveniji u New Yorku

a writer in New York wrote an article in a magazine,

njujorški pisac napisao je članak za časopis

and the title of the article was,

čiji je naslov glasio:

"Feminism for Men."

"Feminizam za muškarce".

And this was the first line of that article:

Ovo je bila prva rečenica članka:

"Feminism will make it possible for the first time for men to be free."

"Feminizam će muškarcima omogućiti da po prvi put budu slobodni."

Thank you.

Hvala vam.
