"A Seat at the Table" Isn't the Solution for Gender Equity | Lilly Singh | TED

翻译人员: fuqi wu 校对人员: Lexi Ding

So when I was born on September 26, 1988,

1988年9月26日，我出生了，

my grandparents and great grandparents back in India

我在印度的祖父母和曾祖父母

didn't find out for two weeks,

过了两个星期才知道。

which is a shame because I mean, look how perfect I was.

太可惜了，毕竟你看， 我那时多可爱啊。

(Laughter)

（笑声）

And it's not because the phone lines were down

但这不是因为电话打不通

or because they weren't available.

也不是因为他们没空。

It's because there was a complication with my birth.

是因为我出生时的并发症。

And that complication was being assigned female at birth.

这个并发症就是生而为女性。

You see, because my mom had been told that if she gave birth to a daughter,

因为家里人告诉我母亲， 如果她生了个女儿，

it wasn't worth phoning home about.

就没必要打电话通知家里了。

After all, she’d already given birth to my older sister,

毕竟她已经生了我姐姐了，

and this time everyone had high hopes that she would do right and have a son.

所以这次大家都非常期待 她可以努力生个儿子。

But she didn't.

但事与愿违，

She had me.

我出生了。

And so there were no congratulations or Indian sweets sent our way.

所以我们没有收到 任何祝贺或印度糖果。

Just the reality that from the moment I came into this world,

有的只是我出生了这个事实，

I was already a disappointment to so many people.

以及很多人的期待落空了。

It's as if they had a time machine

仿佛他们已经通过时光机，

and already knew the trajectory of my entire career and life

看过了我这辈子的 职业发展和人生经历

and decided that I had less to offer.

然后就认定我不如男孩子。

And it sucked.

真糟糕。

So why am I telling you this heavy story?

我为什么和你们讲这个沉重的故事？

I'm supposed to be a funny person.

我本该是带给你们欢笑的人。

I have the nerve to come out here and hit you right in the feels.

我却敢在这里带给你们负面情绪。

我怎么敢？

How dare I?

I'm telling you this because although this is my lived experience,

我讲述这些是因为 尽管这是我的个人经历，

it's also the reality that millions of girls face every day

但它也是生活在各个国家、 各种文化下的上百万女孩儿

across every culture and in every country.

每天都在面对的现实。

And I'm telling you this because being born into this reality

我讲述这些是因为出生在这种环境下

set me on a lifetime mission of trying to prove myself

让我有了证明自己的人生使命

and just feel like I was enough.

并且我觉得我可以做到。

What did I want to be when I grow up?

在成长中我想要的是什么？

I wanted to be treated equally.

我想要被平等对待。

And I'm not alone in this mission.

我并不是孤军奋战。

In fact, us girls, what we desperately want

事实上，我们女孩拼了命想要的

is a seat at the table.

是拥有一席之地。

It's what every motivational poster, Tumblr post, Instagram account you follow,

这是你关注的每个励志海报、 微博文章、图文账号，

business card tells us:

以及商务名片告诉我们的：

Success is a seat at the table.

成功就是拥有一席之地。

And if they want to be extra spicy,

要是他们想再激进一点儿，

they say, "If there is no seat, drag your own seat."

就会说，“如果这里没你的座位， 就自己去搬把椅子来。”

I'm sure you've heard this, right?

你们肯定听过这样的话，对吧？

And so my marching orders were clear.

所以我接收到的指令很明确。

Get a seat at this coveted table by any means necessary.

无论如何也要得到梦寐以求的席位。

And that's been the driving force behind my entire career.

这也是推进我整个 职业生涯的动力来源。

Now, in 2010,

2010年，

I noticed that no one on YouTube looked like me.

我发现YouTube上 没有我这样的博主。

There was no South Asian woman who's very loud and uses her hands a lot,

没有说话大声、 肢体语言丰富的南亚女性，

giving her take on the world.

去发表她对这个世界的看法。

There was no me in front of a camera.

也没有像我这样的人站到镜头前。

I saw a seat up for grabs.

我看到了要去争夺的席位。

So I got to work, and I started a channel under the name “Superwoman.”

所以我开始行动，创建了 一个名为“女超人”的频道。

Yeah, because although I’m smart enough to do a TED Talk,

尽管我优秀到可以来TED做演讲，

I'm not smart enough to understand copyright.

但我没能搞懂版权。

(Laughter)

（笑声）

I taught myself how to write,

我自学如何写作，

shoot and edit my own content.

拍摄以及编辑我的内容。

And I worked really hard.

我非常努力。

When I finally got the hang of it,

当我终于学会了这些，

I committed to posting two comedy videos a week.

我决定要每周发布两个喜剧视频。

And I found success.

我做到了。

With a backwards snapback on my head,

反戴着棒球帽的我，

I gave my take on relationships, pop culture, taboo subjects

对感情、流行文化、 敏感话题发表观点，

and, most popularly, dressed up like my parents.

最火的是我打扮成父母的样子。

(Laughter)

（笑声）

I can't tell you how many times I forgot to wipe that chest hair off.

我不知道有多少次 忘了擦掉画上的胸毛。

A lot of times.

太多次了。

(Laughter)

（笑声）

Now fast forward to 2015,

让我们快进到2015年，

and I'm on stage in India announcing my first world tour.

我在印度宣布了 我的第一场世界巡演。

As fate would have it,

如命中注定一般，

the day after this monumental milestone,

完成巡演的第二天，

I was set to fly to Punjab, India

我去了印度的旁遮普，

to visit my grandfather for the first time in my adult life.

去看望我的祖父， 这是我成年后第一次去。

And whoo, nothing could have prepared me

哇，对接下来要发生的事情，

for what was about to happen.

我一点也没有预料到。

I vividly remember it.

我清楚地记得，

I was in the car driving to his house.

我坐在开往祖父家的汽车里，

He was standing outside.

他就站在房子外面。

I nervously got out of the car, walked up to him.

我紧张地推开车门，朝他走去。

He walked up to me, looked me right in the eyes,

他竟然看着我的眼睛，向我走来了。

and he raised his hand

然后抬手，

and decorated me with a flower garland:

为我戴上了花环，

a gesture fit for people of importance.

这是一种对重要人物的礼仪。

He then proceeded to welcome me into his home, my mom by my side,

然后他把我和我母亲迎进家门，

and proceed to show me all the newspaper clippings he had saved

并向我展示了他收集的，

with my name and face on them.

带有我名字和照片的剪报。

He said the words he was wrong.

他说他错了。

Words I had never heard a man say before to me.

我此前从未从任何一个 男性口中听到过“我错了”。

He said that I had done what no one else could have done,

他说我做到了别人 不可能做到的事情。

and I had made the family name proud.

为我们家族的名字增光添彩了。

Me, Lilly, the baby born a girl.

我，莉莉，一个女孩。

That's right.

是的。

Now in that moment I truly felt like Superwoman.

当时我真的觉得自己是“女超人”。

I did.

真的。

You know, through my YouTube videos,

通过我的YouTube视频，

I've amassed almost 15 million subscribers and three billion views.

我收获了近1500万订阅者 和30亿次播放。

But more important than all of that,

但更重要的是，

I managed to change one view.

我终于成功改变了一个观点。

I challenged my grandfather's entrenched gender beliefs.

让我祖父根深蒂固的 性别观念有了改变。

And for the first time in my life, I remember thinking in that moment,

这是我人生中第一次觉得，

“Oh, I finally got a seat at the table ...”

“终于，我得到了一席之地...”

Hello, props.

嗨，道具们。

(Laughter)

（笑声）

" ... alongside the men in the industry.”

“...和这个行业里的 男性们坐到了一起”

I felt like that.

我这样觉得。

And encouraged by my grandfather's approval,

从我祖父的认可里， 我受到了更多鼓励，

I became more confident in my influence.

我对自己的影响力更加自信了。

I remember thinking, "Oh, I'm going to talk at this table,

我当时想，“我要在这里发表意见，

I'm going to join the dinner conversation."

我要加入谈话。”

You know, a lot of my male mentors make comments and posts

你知道的，我的许多男性导师

可以对票房数字、工资、头衔和美钞

about box office numbers and salaries and titles

and those dollar dollar bills.

发表评论和观点。

So I thought,

所以我在想，

I'm going to chime in here.

我也要在这里插上话。

I learned very quickly that whenever I spoke of money,

我很快发现，每当我谈论到金钱，

people got a little uncomfortable.

人们就会觉得有点儿不舒服。

Like the time I pointed out the gender gap

就像有次，我指出了那个我曾上榜的

in the Forbes list for online creators,

福布斯在线创作者榜单中

a list I'd previously been on.

存在着性别差异。

I remember wanting to start a critical conversation

我想进行一次批判性的讨论

because I saw this article and I was heartbroken.

因为当我看到这篇文章时， 我觉得很心碎。

You know, the digital space had always been a place

我一直以为数字空间

that I thought was without gatekeepers.

是个没有看门人的地方。

And here it was looking just like old Hollywood.

但在这里它看起来 就像过去的好莱坞。

Well, let me tell you, the internet was not interested.

但我告诉你们， 网络世界对此毫不关心。

I don't know how it's possible,

我知道这听起来很离谱，

but it literally felt as if Twitter leaped through my screen

但我真的觉得推特好像 跳过我的屏幕和身体

and body slammed me onto my desk.

把我撞到了桌子上。

The message was clear:

信息很明确：

you can be on this list,

你可以上榜，

but don't try to start any conversations about the inequality on this list.

但不要试图展开任何 有关榜单不平等的讨论。

I have thousands and thousands of videos.

我做了成千上万条视频。

One of my most disliked videos is why I’m not in a relationship.

讨论我为什么不谈恋爱的那个 是最多人讨厌的一条。

Yeah.

是的。

A lot of the men at the table did not like me telling them

那张桌子旁的许多男人不想听我说

why I didn't need a boyfriend.

我为什么不需要男朋友。

I quickly learned

我很快意识到

that there’s an invisible gatekeeper called culture,

这里有个无形的看门人--文化，

and the table is smack dab in the middle of it.

而那张桌子就放在它中间。

Now, in 2019,

2019年，

I made history with my late-night show,

我的深夜秀创造了历史，

“A Little Late with Lilly Singh.”

“和莉莉·辛格的深夜”

Thank you, thank you.

谢谢，谢谢。

(Applause)

（掌声）

There I was, Lilly, the baby born a brown girl,

我，莉莉，一个棕色皮肤的女孩

rubbing elbows, or at least time slots,

至少在节目播出时段，

with comedy royalty.

和喜剧届的大人物们谈笑风生。

And I got to give a huge shout out to NBC

我必须要向全国广播公司喝彩，

for boldly trying to break late-night tradition.

因为它勇敢尝试打破深夜秀的传统。

I remember when the show came out,

我记得秀刚播出的时候，

I remember all the articles because they looked practically identical.

我记得所有的报道， 因为它们几乎一模一样。

"Bisexual Woman of Color Gets Late-Night Show."

“双性恋有色人种女性 主持了深夜秀”

I almost legally changed my name to "bisexual woman of color"

我差点儿把我的真名改成了 “双性恋有色人种女性”

because that's what people called me so often.

因为大家都这么叫我 。

And you know, as strange as that sentiment was, I thought, OK,

尽管这么想有点奇怪，

the silver lining is that we'll finally get a different perspective in late-night.

但至少我们终于在深夜秀上 展现了不同的视角。

A little bit of melanin, a dash of queer,

一点不同的肤色，一点不同的性取向

a different take on things.

一些对事情不同的观点。

Let's do this!

让我们行动起来吧！

And I remember thinking,

我开始觉得，

"Now, oh, now I've been invited to the big table.

“我现在被邀请到了那张大桌子旁。

And now things will be different."

事情变得不一样起来。”

So I took my seat.

我有了一席之地。

Now, unfortunately,

不幸的是，

the budget wasn't based on the importance or significance

预算并不是根据秀的重要性或影响力

or historic nature of the show.

或是历史性质分配的。

It was based on the 1:30am time-slot that we had.

而是根据我们这个秀 所在的时间段：凌晨一点半。

So to say the budget was small,

所以预算很少，

the writing staff even smaller,

写作人员更是寥寥无几，

and to do the first season,

为了做第一季，

I had to shoot 96 episodes of late-night television in three months.

我必须要在三个月内 完成96集的拍摄。

Audience: Whoo.

观众：哇

LS: Whoo is right.

莉莉·辛格：“哇”得好

To put that into perspective,

具体来说，

that is shooting two to three episodes a day

一天要拍两到三集

versus the network standard of one a day,

而业内标准是一天一集，

maybe two on Thursday.

或许周四拍两集。

We did it all with a writing staff of about half a dozen writers

我们的写作人员只有六个

versus the network standard that's about double that.

也只是行业标准的一半。

Words cannot explain to you how exhausting,

我找不到合适的词 来形容当时有多累，

emotionally and spiritually challenging that was.

以及在情感上和精神上 有多大的挑战性。

And I started to feel like,

我开始觉得

"Hm, I think this chair's a little wobbly."

“嗯，这把椅子有点坐不稳了”

Now, I think we can all agree

我们都知道

that the beauty and magic of late-night is its timeliness.

深夜电视的魅力和魔力 在于它的时间性。

You know that no matter what's happening in the world,

无论这个世界发生了什么，

you can turn on late-night television and hear all about it.

你都可以打开深夜电视，知晓一切。

But when you shoot 96 episodes in three months,

但当你在三个月内 完成了96集的拍摄时，

you kind of lose that magic.

你似乎失去了这种魔力。

I was the only show talking about hooking up, partying, cuddling, traveling,

在全球疫情期间， 我们是唯一在现场听众面前

in front of a live audience during a literal global pandemic.

谈论搭讪、聚会、 拥抱和旅游的节目。

Now, still, I thought,

但我想，

if the budget doesn't celebrate the historicness of the show,

如果预算不能 为节目的历史性进行庆祝，

then the creative can.

那么创意可以。

I can bring some much needed spice to late-night.

我可以为深夜秀加点儿“料”。

And sometimes I was successful.

有时候我做得很成功。

But other times,

但有时候，

I would receive notes like,

我会收到一些这样的评论，

"Don't be so loud."

“说话不要太大声。”

"Don't be so big."

“肢体语言不要太大。”

"Don't be so angry, smile more."

“别总发火，多微笑。”

And my all time favorite,

最绝的是，

"Don't overindex on the South Asian stuff."

“不要过度引用南亚的东西。”

After all, everyone else at the table who's been sitting there for years,

毕竟其他深夜秀已经做了很多年了，

people are used to them.

人们已经习惯了他们。

I might be a little jarring to audiences.

对听众来说，我说话可能有些刺耳。

Now, during season two of my show,

在秀的第二季时，

I remember I went into overdrive.

我的工作强度特别高。

I found all the loopholes, I did all the necessary jobs

我要查找所有的漏洞， 我做了一切必要的工作

to try to make the show more timely.

就为了让节目及时播出。

And I was excited to.

做这些的时候我很兴奋，

And I felt compelled to because for the first time in history,

也觉得必须要这么做， 因为有史以来第一次，

we had a woman, not to mention half South Asian woman,

一位女性，一位有一半 南亚血统的女性，

become vice president of the United States.

成为了美国副总统。

Now we witnessed one of the greatest protests in human history

伴随着印度农民起义，

我们见证了人类历史上 最伟大的一场起义。

with the farmer protests in India.

And I was excited to finally give my take on these things.

我很激动自己终于可以 在这些事情上发表观点了。

But my take was almost never included

但是，头条媒体几乎从来没有

in topical media news coverage round-ups.

报导过我的观点。

You know, we still got the same voices,

我们仍然只听得到同样的声音，

the same perspectives,

同样的观点，

even though someone and something different

即使在下个时段，

was literally in the next time slot.

节目里的人和观点都不一样了。

I kept trying to pull up my seat.

我试图提升我的位置。

I kept trying to join the dinner conversation.

我试图加入对话。

I kept trying to ask for a more supportive seat.

我试图坐到一个更能被看到的位置。

But every time I would be told

但每次都有人告诉我

that I should be grateful to have a seat in the first place.

我得先感恩我能有位子可做。

After all, everyone else that looks like me

毕竟，很多像我一样的人

is still waiting outside the restaurant in the cold.

仍然在寒冷的餐厅外面等位呢。

You know, the strange thing about having a wobbly seat

好笑的是，你花了大把时间

is that you spend so much time trying to keep it upright

试图在一把不稳的椅子上坐端正，

that you can never bring your full self to the table.

但还是不可能被这桌人完全接纳。

So now, why am I telling you all this?

那我为什么还要和你们讲这些？

Well, because my therapist costs 200 dollars an hour

因为我的心理咨询师 200美金一小时，

and this is way cheaper.

现在给你们省钱了。

(Laughter)

（笑声）

But also because I just experienced

还有，因为我经历过

one of the most notorious boys' clubs ever in late-night television.

深夜电视节目有史以来 最臭名昭著的男性小团体。

And I'm here to offer solutions.

下面我要提供解决方案了。

I don't always follow up a venting session with solutions,

我并不是每次发泄完观点后 都会给解决方案的。

but when I do, it’s a TED Talk.

但这里可是TED。

(Laughter)

（笑声）

That's right.

是的

(Applause)

（掌声）

You see, my goal was always a seat at the table.

你们知道的，我的目标 曾经一直是拥有一席之地。

It's what women are conditioned to believe success is.

这也是女性们一直 被灌输的成功标准。

And when the chair doesn't fit,

当这把椅子不适合坐时，

when it doesn't reach the table, when it's wobbly,

当它离桌子太远，当它摇晃不稳时

when it's full of splinters,

当椅子上面布满了尖刺，

we don't have the luxury of fixing it or finding another one.

我们没有修理它的权力， 也没法换把椅子。

But we try anyways.

但我们在努力。

We take on that responsibility, and we shoulder that burden.

我们承担起责任， 肩负起重担。

Now, I've been fortunate enough to sit at a few seats,

现在，我很幸运地 在一些不同的桌子旁边，

at a few different tables.

拥有了一些席位。

And what I've learned is, when you get the seat,

我从中明白了， 当你获得了一席之地，

trying to fix the seat won't fix the problem.

试图修理这个座位， 并不能解决问题。

Why?

为什么这么说？

Because the table was never built for us in the first place.

因为这张桌子一开始 就不是为我们所做的。

The solution?

怎么解决？

Build better tables.

打造更好的桌子。

(Applause)

（掌声）

So, allow me to be your very own IKEA manual.

请允许我成为你们的 专属宜家家具使用手册。

I would like to present to you a set of guidelines

我想为大家介绍一套方案。

I very eloquently call:

我愿称其为：

“How to Build a Table that Doesn’t Suck”.

“如何制作一张不让人恶心的桌子”

(Laughter)

（笑声）

I've been told I'm very literal.

大家都说我很有文采。

Now, right off the bat, let me tell you,

现在我要告诉你，

this assembly is going to take more than one person

要组装这张桌子，一个人是不够的

or group of people.

一组人也不够。

It's going to take everyone.

而是需要每个人的支持。

Are you ready? Should we dive in?

准备好加入其中了吗？

Let's do it.

让我们开始吧。

Up first,

首先，

don't weaponize gratitude.

不要被“感恩”道德绑架

Now, don't get me wrong, gratitude is a great word.

不要误会我的意思，感恩是个好词。

It's nice, it's fluffy, a solid 11 points in Scrabble.

是个美好、柔软、 总长两个汉字的词。

However, let's be clear.

但是我要说清楚，

Although gratitude feels warm and fuzzy,

尽管“感恩”让人如沐春风，

it's not a form of currency.

但“感恩”不能当饭吃。

Women are assigned 10 percent more work

女性被分配了10%的额外工作

and spend more time on unrewarded,

把更多的时间花在了没有回报、

unrecognized and non-promotable tasks.

不被认可、无法获得晋升的工作上。

Basically, what this means is

简单来说，其实就是

all the things men don't want to do are being handed to women,

男性不想干的事情 都交给了女性去做，

and a lot of those things largely include things that advance inclusivity,

这些事情包括了促进职场中的

equity and diversity in the workplace.

包容、平等和多样性。

So hear me when I say,

所以我说，

a woman shouldn't be grateful to sit at a table.

女性不该对获得一席之地说谢谢，

She should be paid to sit at a table.

而是应该被付费邀请落座。

(Applause)

（掌声）

Especially ones she largely helped build.

尤其是在那些她们花了 大力气打造的桌子旁。

And a woman's seat shouldn't be threatened if she doesn't seem "grateful" enough.

并且女性的位置不该因为 看起来没那么“感激”而受到威胁。

In other words, corporations,

换句话说，在公司里，

this step involves a woman doing a job

这牵扯到女性的工作，

and being paid in money, opportunity and promotion,

应该获得工资、机会和提拔，

not just gratitude.

而不仅仅是感谢。

And women -- yeah, go ahead, live it up, live your life.

女性们，冲吧， 狂欢一场，为自己而活。

(Applause)

（掌声）

And women, a moment of real talk,

女性们，我是说真的，

trust me, I've been there and I know it's so tough,

请相信我，我经历过， 我知道这太难了，

but we have to understand and remember that being grateful

但我们必须明白并且牢记,

感恩和受到公平对待 是可以同时存在的。

and being treated fairly are not mutually exclusive.

I can be grateful but still know exactly what I deserve.

我可以心存感激但同时 清楚哪些东西是自己应得。

And that's the way to do it.

这才是正确的做法。

(Applause)

（掌声）

Up next, invest in potential.

下一条，为潜力投资。

When investing in women,

投资给女性时，

don’t invest in the 1:30am time slot.

不要为了凌晨一点半 这个时间段而投资。

Invest in empowering something different.

请投资在赋能不同的东西上，

Invest in a new voice.

投资给新声音。

Give them the support they actually need.

给她们真正需要的帮助。

Cultural change takes time and money.

文化的改变需要时间也需要金钱。

Heck, it took my grandfather 25 years to see that I was worthy of more.

我的祖父花了25年才明白 我比他以为的更有价值。

So a true investment is one that values potential over proof.

所以真正的投资更看重 潜在价值而非现存证据。

Because so often that proof doesn't exist for women.

因为大多时候没有利于女性的现存证据。

Not because we aren't qualified,

并不是因为我们不够好，

but because we haven't been given the opportunity.

而是因为我们根本没有证明自己的机会。

In other words,

也就是说，

if you're trying to be inclusive,

如果你想更具包容性，

don't give someone new a seat made of straw

不要给新人一把稻草椅子，

until they prove they deserve a better one.

直到他们证明自己值得更好的。

Don't hold something called a "prove it again" bias,

不要有“再证明一次”的偏见，

which requires less privileged people to constantly keep proving themselves,

别要求那些本就没什么机会的人 一次又一次不断证明自己，

even though white men tend to get by on just their potential.

而白人男性只靠潜力 就可以获得认可。

Give them a seat that they can thrive in,

请给他们一个能够 让他们快速发展的位置，

that they can do the job you hired them to do in.

一个可以施展才华的位置。

Allow them to contribute to the table,

允许他们为这个社会做出贡献，

and they will make it better.

那他们也会做得更好。

Up next, this is my favorite one.

下一点，也是我最喜欢的一点。

My favorite one, it's quite common sense, actually.

这一点其实也是个常识。

Make space for us.

给我们更多的空间。

You know, for every three men at a table,

每四个坐在桌旁的人里，

there's only one place setting for a woman.

就只有一个女性的位置。

People are so used to more men showing up that they plan for it.

人们已经习惯了更多的男性出现， 于是他们以此来准备椅子。

There's an extra seat in the corner, there's a steak under the heat lamp.

当有女性加入时，只会挤一挤， 被安排到看不见的角落。

When more men show up, the table gets longer.

而当有男性加入时， 却会换个更长的桌子。

But when that extra RSVP is a woman,

但当有女性要加入时，

more often than not

通常来说，

she's encouraged to compete against the only other woman

人们会要求她和在坐的唯一女性

that was invited to the table.

争抢这一个位置。

Instead, we need to build multiple seats for multiple women,

我们应该为女性添上多把椅子，

not just one or two,

而不仅仅是一两把。

so that women are not sitting on top of each other's laps,

这样，女性们就不用为了一把椅子

fighting for one meal.

拼个你死我活。

We already know that more diverse teams perform better.

我们知道越多元的团队表现得越好。

A recent study shows

一个最近的研究表明

that corporations that have more gender diversity

一个公司的执行团队

on their executive teams,

如果有更好的性别多样性，

were 25 percent more likely to experience above average profitability.

那么其盈利能力就有 25%的可能超过平均水平。

And more racially diverse companies had 36 percent more profit.

更丰富的种族多样性 可以多带来36%的利润。

So really, no matter how you look at it,

所以，不论你怎么看待这个问题，

it's time to build longer tables and more seats.

是时候搭建更长的桌子， 放置更多把椅子了。

And I want to say something,

我想要说点什么，

and I want to admit something, I want to be vulnerable for a second.

想要承认点什么，想要脆弱一秒钟。

Because I've fallen victim to this so many times,

因为我已经为此 成为受害者太多次了，

and women, let me know if you've experienced this.

女性朋友们，如果 你经历过这些请让我知道。

We have to get rid of the scarcity mindset and champion each other,

我们必须摆脱稀缺心态，拥护彼此。

you know, because I've learned what's the better win?

因为我知道什么才是更好的胜利。

Me sitting at a table

我一个人的话语权？

or us sitting at a table?

还是我们大家都可以有话语权？

Don't be convinced to fight for one spot.
