孔子的女性观探析

On Confucius' s view on women

从《论语》全书和相关资料分析,"唯女子与小人为难养也"、"有妇人焉,九人而已"表达的是孔子对女性的肯定和赞颂,而非歧视。在女性作为男性附属品而存在的时代,孔子思想极具先进性,在教育和孝敬母亲问题上表现的也是对女性的尊重态度。但孔子的女性观必有时代的局限性,今人应客观对待。

From the 'The Analects of Confucius' and the relevant information analysis, 'do not offend women', expresses Confucius affirmation and praise of women, rather than discrimination. In the time female as male accessories, Confucius' s thought is advanced, in education and respect for mother, he showed respect for women. But Confucius' s view of women will have the limitation of the times, people should treat objectively.
