漢風(fēng)唐韻

Women’s body confidence has become a “critical issue” around the world and pressure from the media is largely to blame for our low self-esteem, a new report warns.
一項(xiàng)最新報(bào)告指出，女性對(duì)自身外形缺乏信心已成為全球性重要問(wèn)題,，來(lái)自媒體的壓力是主要原因,。

The Dove Global Beauty and Confidence Report, given exclusively to The Huffington Post UK, has been created using interviews with 10,500 women and girls across 13 countries and is the largest the brand has ever commissioned.
由《赫芬頓郵報(bào)》英國(guó)版獨(dú)家披露的《多芬全球美麗自信研究報(bào)告》來(lái)源于對(duì)13個(gè)國(guó)家10500位婦女和女孩的采訪。這是該品牌委托進(jìn)行的最大型的調(diào)研。

It found that women in the UK have one of the lowest body confidence scores in the world, with only 20% of us saying we like the way that we look.
研究發(fā)現(xiàn),，英國(guó)女性的外形自信位列全球最低之一,，僅20%的人表示喜歡自己的外貌。

Globally, more than two-thirds of women (69%) and girls (65%) say increasing pressures from advertising and media to reach an unrealistic standard of beauty is the key force in driving their appearance anxiety.
從世界范圍看,，超過(guò)三分之二的婦女（69%）和女孩（65%）表示,，廣告和媒體宣傳的不切實(shí)際的美麗標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，給女性造成越來(lái)越大的壓力,，是導(dǎo)致她們外貌焦慮的主要原因,。

Meanwhile, 56% of all women recognise the impact of an “always on” social media culture in driving the pressure for perfection and negative body image.
同時(shí)，56%的女性意識(shí)到,，“始終在線”的社交媒體文化迫使她們追求完美,，并對(duì)負(fù)面的身體形象感到壓力。

The report reveals that low body-esteem is causing the majority of women (85%) and girls (79%) to opt out of important life activities – such as trying out for a team or club, and engaging with family or loved ones – when they don’t feel good about the way they look.
報(bào)告顯示,，對(duì)外形缺乏自信導(dǎo)致大部分婦女（85%）和女孩（79%）在不滿意自己的外貌時(shí)放棄生活中的重要活動(dòng)——比如參與團(tuán)隊(duì)或俱樂(lè)部活動(dòng),，和家人或心愛(ài)的人在一起。

Additionally, seven in 10 girls with low body-esteem say they won’t be assertive in their opinion or stick to their decision if they aren’t happy with the way they look, while nine out of 10 (87%) women will stop themselves from eating or will otherwise put their health at risk.
此外,，有七成對(duì)外形不自信的女孩說(shuō),，如果她們不滿意自己的外貌，就無(wú)法肯定自己的觀點(diǎn)或堅(jiān)持自己的決定,。而近九成的婦女（87%）會(huì)為此節(jié)食,，或進(jìn)行其他危害健康的行為。

What’s more, nearly eight in 10 (78%) of both women and girls feel some pressure to never make mistakes or show weakness.
還有近八成（78%）的女性,，包括婦女和女孩,，感受到從不犯錯(cuò)或示弱的壓力。

“This latest research shows that low body confidence is a global issue,” says Dr Nancy Etcoff of Harvard Medical School.
哈佛醫(yī)院學(xué)院的南茜•埃特考夫博士說(shuō)：“這項(xiàng)最新研究顯示,，對(duì)外形缺乏自信是一個(gè)全球性問(wèn)題,。”

“Though troubling, these results are also unsurprising, given the increasing pressures women and girls face today.
“考慮到當(dāng)今婦女和女孩面臨的壓力持續(xù)增長(zhǎng),，這些結(jié)果雖讓人不安,，但也不足為奇�,！�

“We need to help empower women and girls in many ways, including increasing body-confidence education, driving meaningful conversations around the pressures women and girls face, and advocating for change in how females and their appearance are talked about and portrayed in the media.”
“我們需要以各種方式幫助婦女和女孩獲得力量,，包括開(kāi)展增強(qiáng)外形自信的教育,，圍繞她們面臨的壓力進(jìn)行有意義的交流,，并且倡導(dǎo)女性及其形象在媒體報(bào)道和呈現(xiàn)上的改變�,！�

The report found that beauty and appearance anxiety is a global issue, but one that women are experiencing differently by culture and country.
該報(bào)告發(fā)現(xiàn),，美麗和外貌焦慮是一個(gè)全球性問(wèn)題，但女性的體驗(yàn)會(huì)因?yàn)樯硖幉煌瑖?guó)家和文化環(huán)境而不同。

While women in South Africa are the most body confident with 64% saying they have “high body-esteem”, women in the UK come in 12th out of 13 countries, with only 20% of us saying we feel good about the way we look.
南非女性對(duì)自身外形的自信程度最高,，有64%的女性表示“對(duì)外形高度自信”,。而英國(guó)女性在13個(gè)國(guó)家中排名第12位，只有20%表示滿意自己的外貌,。

For many women and girls, the key to breaking a cycle of beauty and appearance anxiety seems to be the experience of taking time to care for their minds, body and appearance.
對(duì)于許多婦女和女孩來(lái)說(shuō)，打破美麗和外貌焦慮的關(guān)鍵,，似乎在于花費(fèi)時(shí)間關(guān)愛(ài)自己的心靈,、身體和外貌。

In fact, seven in 10 women and eight in 10 girls report feeling more confident or positive when they invest time in caring for themselves.
