这几天看了一个TED演讲《教女孩子勇敢，而不是完美》，感触很深，分享给大家。
"Most gils are taught to avoid risk and failure.We're taught to smile pretty,play it safe,get all A's.Boys,on the other hand,are taught to play rough,swing high,crawl to the top of the monkey bars and then just jump off
headfirst."
"In other words,we're raising our girls to be perfect,and we're raising our boys to be brave."
除此以外，演讲者讲的一个例子使我印象深刻。
"Every Girls who Code teacher tells me the same story.During the first week,when the girls are learning how to code, a student will call her over and she'll say," I don't know what code to write."The teacher will look at her screen,and she'll see a blank text editor.If she didn't know any better,she'll think that her student spent the past twenty minutes just staring at the screen.But if she presses undo a few times,she'll see that her student wrote code and then deleted it.She tried,she came close,but she didn't get it exactly right.instead of showing the progress that she made,she'd rather show nothing at all.perfection or bust."
“每个女孩的指导老师都和我说一样的故事。在第一周，当女孩儿们试着学习如何编程。一个学生叫她过去，她（学生）说到“我不知道要写哪个编码。”当老师看她的屏幕，会看到一个完全空白的界面。如果她不知道原因，她也许会想她的学生在过去的二十分钟里，只是盯着屏幕发呆。但如果她点击几下撤销键，她就会看到她的学生写了代码随后又删掉了它们。她尝试了，她接近目标了，但是她没有完全答对。比起展现她经历的过程，她宁可什么都不展现。要么完美，要么什么也没有。”
其实我感觉这反映的正是一种刻板印象，女孩应该文静完美减少尴尬，男孩应该勇敢冒险活泼调皮，女孩文科好，男孩理科好。这对男女生来说都是一种不公平。每个人的性格及人生应由自己决定，而不是社会。
