英语中的性别主义、女性英语及其根源

Sexism in English、Woman English and its Root

英语中存在性别主义,对女性的性别歧视通过语言表现出来:1、英语把所有的人都看作男性;2、与女性有关的词往往是贬义的;3、一些词用于女性便产生贬义;4、一些典故,俗语,神话;5、显性与隐性。女性英语有其语音、语调、词汇方面的特点,与英语中性别主义一样,其产生的根源在于社会,反映了文化与社会意识形态及女性较低的社会地位。

There exists sexism in English.lt embodies in the following:English language considers anybody as a man; words related to female are always derogatory; and so on. Just like sexism in English, woman English has its own features in pronunciation, intonation and vocabulary. Its root lies in the society and it reflects womans’ s lower status and social ideology of that time.
