“女性”这个词,在现代中国史上,意味着进步、新兴、解放。它是在五四新文化运动时期与大量的西方词汇一同涌入中国的。就像“启蒙”、“民主”、“个性解放”、“知识分子”等等语汇,它们共同构成新文化运动的关键词。所以,现代中国的“新女性观”是与传统中国妇女观有本质区别的。后者意味着封建中国文化的糟粕的一部分,压迫与欺凌的表征之一。前者则成为个性解放、追求民主、科学、自由的急先锋,并成为国家神话的载体。
The word “feminine” in modern Chinese history means progress, emerging, and liberating. It flooded into China with a large number of western words during the May Fourth New Culture Movement. Like “enlightenment”, “democracy”, “liberation of personality”, “intellectuals” and so forth, they together constitute the key words of the New Culture Movement. Therefore, the concept of “new women” in modern China is essentially different from that of traditional Chinese women. The latter means part of the dross of feudal Chinese culture, one of the manifestations of oppression and bullying. The former has become the vanguard of individual liberation, the pursuit of democracy, science and freedom, and has become the carrier of national myths.
