There is a high degree of equality between the genders in Finland, as can be seen in the relatively high number of women holding advanced positions in politics and other areas of society.
芬兰的性别平等程度很高,在政治和社会其他领域担任高级职务的女性人数相对较多。
Chauvinistic or patronizing attitudes toward women are generally considered unacceptable, although such attitudes do persist in practice. Women are usually independent financially and may offer to pay their share of a restaurant bill, for instance. A man may politely refuse such an offer, but it is equally polite to accept it.
大男子主义或者性别傲慢通常是不可接受的,虽说这种事情在现实中也确实存在。女性通常经济独立,她们也愿意吃饭后AA。男性一般会礼貌地表示愿意请客,但跟女性AA同样也是礼貌和可接受的。
芬兰的这些特质经常被归结为气候因素的影响——道路结冰,人们不愿出门社交;空气太冷,讲话要短要快要精炼;极夜太长,要少加班,多福利,等等。
芬兰的邻居瑞典和挪威也或多或少分享了这些特点。
想一想,不需要无谓社交,也挺让人动心的。
