30、on令人不安的是，妇女解放似乎是一种让妇女多干活的“权利”。一个获得解放的职业妇 女比一个很满足的妈妈更快乐吗？如果男人喜欢工作，而女人乐于在家帮助他们分担压力， 这有什么可指责的呢？我不觉得“平等”受到威胁，这只是理性的劳动分工。我相信创造和 谐的家庭是妇女的责任，而成功与否并不全部取决于女性，但她们所起的作用要远大于男性。 真正的问题不在于男人与女人是不是平等，而在于是什么创造了幸福生活。我们是以什么为 标准确定生活是富足的、令人向往的呢？我常常问，为什么事业上的成功也常常被人们看成 生活上同样是成功的呢? 作为一个女人，如果我在为人妻为人母方面做的很成功，而且对自 己的工作也很满意，那么
31、我认为我的存在就挺不错，并由此而感到知足。或许我们该把注意 力从妇女身上移开，而去关注一下男人，男人们不能看着自己的孩子成长是很难过的。我敢 说，很多丈夫若是有不太耗时的工作而能回家与孩子们玩耍，他们会更高兴。Uncomfortably，Womens liberation seems to be a more work rights。Is a liberated professional woman happier than a very contented mother?

I often ask, why the success of career is always regarded as the same in life ? As a woman, if I am a successful wife and a suc
34、cessful mother, and very satisfied with my work, I will think that my existence is not bad, and will feel contented with it. Perhaps, we should give attention from women to men, men will be very sad if they cant see their children grow up. I dare say, many husbands will be more pleased, if they have
