男生免費師範教育政策被指涉嫌性別歧視(雙語)

A new teacher training program has been created for men in Fujian province, Beijing News reported on Sept. 26.

       《北京新聞》於9月26日報道，福建省已經啟動了一項新的教師培訓計劃。

       The project was initiated last year by the Fujian Provincial Education Department, together with three other local departments and five teacher training universities. The purpose of the program is to ease the serious gender imbalance among primary school and kindergarten teachers.

       該計劃由福建省教育廳、其他三個地方教育局和五所師範大學於去年啟動。該計劃的目標是為了緩解小學和幼兒園老師嚴重的性別失衡。

       The project continues this year, with 500 male participants receiving free training. Wang Yimei (a pseudonym), a female student at a teachers』 college, believes that the project itself is a kind of gender discrimination. She sent an application to the provincial legislative affairs office for a legal review of the policy on Sept. 22, but has not yet received a reply.

       該計劃在今年繼續推行，500個男生接受了免費培訓。王一梅（化名）為某所師範學院的女學生，認為該計劃本身就是一種性別歧視。她於9月22日向省立法事務辦公室發出申請，希望對該政策進行法律審核，但至今未得到答覆。

       An education major at Fujian Normal University said that although the project may succeed in changing the current proportion of male to female teachers in schools, the men-only policy is nevertheless unfair to women.
福建師範大學的一位教育專業學生表示，雖然該計劃可能會改變當前學校的男女老師比例，但是這一隻對男生開放的政策對女生來說並不公平。

       "In terms of employment, the project will put huge pressure on female graduates," she pointed out

       她指出：「說到就業，該計劃將會給女大學生施加巨大的壓力。」

       "Perhaps the original intention of the policy was good, but the unilateral reduction of education fees is unfair for girls. We can call it a kind of sex discrimination," said Liu Xiaonan, associate professor at China University of Political Science and Law.

       中國政法大學(分數線,專業設置)副教授劉曉楠表示：「也許該政策的初衷是好的，但是單方面減少教育費用對女生來說不公平。我們可以稱之為性別歧視。」
