intersections. However, gender is a major part of that. Given the miseries of patriarchy, its persistence is baffling. In part, patriarchy survives because it is “culturally scripted and socially rewarded” (Gilligan & Snider, 2018, p. 30). Moreover, it strips us of our ethical intelligence. We become dulled to the differences between fact and fiction and to the injustices meted out to ourselves and others. Rendered so barren, we are stumblebums in acting against them. Moreover, if we do love, we can suffer the loss of love. Love makes us vulnerable. But patriarchal psychology, with a dreadful efficiency, steels us against love and, voila, against the pain of the loss of love. It is a historical heartache, heartbreak. Part of the moral attractiveness of Gilligan, Richards, and Snider is their hope. For we are born into a more benign state of nature. Take that, Thomas Hobbes. Potentially we are relational beings with the capacity for both voice and listening, empathetic, and co-operative. This makes us able to engage in democracy. Democracy depends on human talents for “equal voice and responsive engagement” (Gilligan & Snider, 2018, p. 119). Since we are resilient, “ . . . repair is always possible, loss is never irrevocable” (Gillian & Snider, 2018, p. 143). Because this is who we are, patriarchy cannot eliminate the “seeds of resistance” within us (Gillian & Snider, 2018). The psychological flowering of these seeds is love. A political flowering is feminism, which both men and women can join, as well as such linking movements as Black Lives Matter, #MeToo, and Women Wage Peace. The last words of Rich’s (2016) “Mother-Right” are: “ . . . child and mother are running the boy singing the woman eyes sharpened in the light heart stumbling making for the open.” (p. 497)

书评:性与耻辱:内华达州合法妓院的日常生活故事

交叉路口。然而,性别是其中的主要部分。鉴于父权制的痛苦,它的持久性令人费解。在某种程度上,父权制之所以能够幸存下来,是因为它是“文化脚本和社会奖励”(Gilligan & Snider,2018 年,第 30 页)。此外,它剥夺了我们的道德智慧。我们对事实与虚构之间的差异以及对自己和他人的不公正感到麻木。如此贫瘠,我们在反对他们时是绊脚石。此外,如果我们爱,我们可能会失去爱。爱让我们变得脆弱。但是重男轻女的心理,以一种可怕的效率,让我们对抗爱,瞧,对抗失去爱的痛苦。这是历史的心痛,心碎。Gilligan、Richards 和 Snider 的道德吸引力的一部分是他们的希望。因为我们出生在一个更温和的自然状态。拿那个,托马斯霍布斯。潜在地,我们是具有发声和倾听能力、善解人意和合作能力的关系人。这使我们能够参与民主。民主取决于“平等的声音和响应式参与”的人类才能(Gilligan & Snider,2018 年,第 119 页)。由于我们具有弹性,“ . . . 修复总是可能的,损失永远无法挽回”(Gillian & Snider,2018 年,第 143 页)。因为这就是我们,父权制无法消除我们内心的“抵抗种子”(Gillian & Snider,2018 年)。这些种子的心理开花是爱。政治上的开花结果是男女都可以加入的女权主义,以及诸如 Black Lives Matter、#MeToo 和 Women Wage Peace 之类的联系运动。Rich (2016)“Mother-Right”的最后一句话是:“. . . 孩子和妈妈正在奔跑,男孩唱歌,女人的眼睛在轻盈中变得锐利,跌跌撞撞地准备睁开。” (第 497 页)
