“女性領導”英語怎麼說

摘要：美國科學家稱，在高層工作崗位上，女性比男性更易產生抑鬱症狀。你知道怎麼用英語表達女性領導嗎?

Women are more likely than men to display symptoms of depression when in a position of authority at work, according to US scientists.

Dr Ruth Sealy at City University in London said women were often "trapped" by the gendered notion of a good leader.

When female leadership adopted traditionally masculine behaviours as leaders, they were criticised for being unfeminine, yet colleagues would not believe the women were good leaders if they saw only their feminine characteristics.

Therefore, they have worse mental health than lower status women.

美國科學家稱，在高層工作崗位上，女性比男性更易產生抑鬱症狀。

倫敦城市大學的露絲·西利博士表示，女性經常被成爲好領導的性別觀念所困擾。

當女性領導採用傳統的男性領導方式時，會被批評不女性化，但如果同事只從女領導身上看到女性特點時，又不相信她們會是好領導。

因此，她們的心理問題比職位低的女性更嚴重。

【講解】

文中的female leadership就是“女性領導”的意思，也可以表達爲female boss，其中leadership作名詞，意爲“領導，領導人員”時，是集合名詞，充當主語時，謂語動詞可用單數形式，也可用複數形式，如：The leadership is/are in agreement on this issue.(領導對這個問題的看法一致。)

第三段中的feminine作形容詞，意爲“女性的”，着重指“有女性氣質的”，而female表示“女性的”，着重指性別而言，如：feminine beauty(女性美)，female deer(雌鹿)。
