Men Like Earning More than Wives

男人就是喜欢比老婆挣得多

According to a new study, this means I likely have significantly higher career satisfaction than if my wife earned the same or more than me. Pamela Tolbert，the co-author of The Impact of Relative Earnings Among Dual-Earner Couples on Career Satisfaction and Family Satisfaction and a professor at Cornell University's ILR School, looked at 485 middle-class married couples in New York State between 1999 and 2002. They were all dual-earner couples---both husband and wife held full-time jobs.

一项最新研究表明，与妻子挣得和我一样多甚至比我还多的情况相比，我很可能对事业更满意。《双职工家庭相对收入对事业满意度和家庭满意度的影响》一文的合著者之一、康乃尔大学劳工关系学院(ILR School)教授帕梅拉·托尔博特在 1999-2002年间对纽约州485对中产阶级夫妇进行了研究。研究对象都是双职工，即夫妇二人都有全职工作。

Ms. Tolbert c1assified as "equal-earner" couples those in which both spouses contributed between 40% and 60% of total family income. Those in which the men contributed more than 60% of total family income she classified as "traditional" couples. Ms.Tolbert examined how satisfied men and women in these arrangements were with both their careers and their family lives.

托尔博特女士将受访夫妇对家庭总收入的贡献在40%-60%之间的家庭定义为“相等收入”家庭。将丈夫对家庭总收入的贡献在60%以上的家庭定义为“传统”家庭。托尔博特女士研究了这两类家庭中男和女性对事业和家庭生活的满意情况。

It turns out, not too surprisingly, that men really do like making more than their wives. The study found that men who earn a lot more than their wives report significantly higher career satisfaction than men who Earn about the same as their spouses, according to Ms. Tolbert and her co-author，Ronit Manor of Israel's Netanya Academic College. "Husbands feel concerned when wives make more than them," says Ms. Tolbert. "We still have these kinds of models in our head."

结果不出所料，男人喜欢比妻子挣得多。托尔博待女士与该文的另一位作者以色列奈坦亚学院的罗妮特·迈诺称，研究发现，收入远远超过妻子的男性对事业的满意度明显高于与妻子收入相当的男性。托尔博特女士说：“当妻子比自己赚得多的时候，男性会感到担忧，我们的头脑中仍有这样的思维模式。”

But, interestingly, although pay levels affect husbands' career satisfaction, money doesn't seem to matter much when it comes to the home front. Whether men earn less, the same or more than their wives has little effect on their reported level of family satisfaction, which tends to be high, the researchers found. The reasons for that are open to speculation，they added.

不过，有趣的是，尽管薪酬水平会影响丈夫对事业的满意度，在家庭生活上，金钱看起来并不那么重要。研究人员发现，夫妻俩挣得谁多谁少还是一样多，这对于家庭生活的满意度没有太大影响。男性对生活的满意度往往较高。研究人员补充道，原因仍众说纷纭。

Meanwhile, women who earn the same as their husbands report Significantly higher levels of career satisfaction than do women in traditional couples, but significantly lower family satisfaction. The take-home message of her findings, says Ms. Tolbert, is that too many people still cling to outdated gender roles.

与此同时，与丈夫收入一样多的女性对事业的满意度要明显高于传统家庭中的女性，不过在家庭满意度上要低得多。托尔博特女士说，她的发现揭示出了一点，那就是太多人仍倾向于过时的性别角色。

Women Underestimate Their Performance on the Job

女性低估自身工作表现

What do your co-workers think of your performance on the job?

你的同事认为你的工作表现如何?

If you're a woman, you're three times more likely than a man to answer that question wrong.

如果你是女性，那你答错这个问题的机率是男性的3倍。

Women handicap themselves on the job by chronically underrating their standing with bosses and co-workers, says a new study slated for presentation next month to the Academy of Management's annual meeting. When asked to predict how they were rated by managers, direct and peers, women were significantly poorer at predicting others' ratings than men，says the study of 251 managers by Taylor of the University of New Mexico.

将在管理学会(Academy of Management)下个月举行的年会上提交的一项新研究表明，女性习惯性地低估自己在老板和同事心目中的地位，从而阻碍了自己的事业发展。 新墨西哥大学的泰勒对251名管理人员进行的研究发现，当被要求预测上司、直接领导和同事给自己的评分时，女性预测的准确度远远不如男性。

A lack of self-confidence isn't the problem. The women surveyed thought highly of themselves compared with men in the study. But the female simply believed others regarded them as far less competent than they actually did, on a wide range of social and emotional skills related to leadership, according to the study. The ratings encompassed a wide range of attributes, from communication and conflict management to trustworthiness and teamwork.

问题不在于缺乏自信。受调查者中，女性比男性对自己评价更高。但研究显示，她们就是觉得自己与领导能力相关的众多社会和情感技能被别人极大地低估了。评分包括交流沟通、处理冲突、可信度和团队合作等多方面的特质。

Overall, averaging all the ratings, the gap between prediction and reality was three times greater for women than for men. "women are so accustomed to decades of being ‘disappeared’ or ignored, and to hearing histories of women whose contributions went unnoticed，that they assume these conditions exist to the same extent today," Dr. Taylor says.

总体上看，将所有评分平均下来，女性的预测和现实之间的差距是男性的3倍。泰勒说，女性几十年来习惯了被忽视，总是听到有关女性的成绩被忽略的陈年旧事，因此她们以为这些情况现在依然如故。

A few companies, of course, have fair, transparent, performance-based compensation systems that eliminate gender inequities.

当然，一些公司拥有公正、透明、基于工作表现的奖励系统，消除了性别歧视。

But at most employers，expecting to be devalued can exact a big toll. A friend of mine says she underestimated her standing at work for years and paid a high price in her paycheck. She started at a low-paid entry-level job at her company and advanced quickly up the ladder. But she didn't ask for a raise for several year, only to find out later that she was making 50% less than peers with similar or less experience.

但在大多数公司里，低估自己可能会付出很高的代价。我的一位朋友说，她多年来一直低估自己在工作中的地位，为此在薪资方面损失惨重。她在公司从低薪的人门级职位干起，升职很快。但她几年都没有要求加薪，最后才发现资历跟她相同或哺乳她的同事都挣得比她多一半。

"It came as a shock when I discovered how underpaid I was," she says. "I really shot myself in the foot by not being a self-promoter." The lesson: If your employer lacks a systematic comp policy, "you really have to self-promote and lobby for yourself if you care about your career or salary advancement," my friend says.

她说，当我发现自己的薪水有多低时，简直太吃惊了，我自己不去要求，这真是自作自受。我朋友说，这件事的教训是：如果你的雇主没有系统的薪酬制度，那你要是关心自己的事业或薪水长进，就得自

力更生，替自己说话。

My male peers have pointed out my own blind spots in this regard. Years ago, when I first learned how much a female executive at my company was paid, I marveled, "Wow，that's a lot." The male colleague who told me roared with laughter. "You think that's a lot?" he asked me he asked me incredulously."That's half what men at her level make."

我的一些男同事曾经指出我在这方面的盲点。多年前我首次得知公司里的女性管理人员的薪水时，我惊叹道，哇，真是太高了。告诉我这件事的男同事大笑起来。他怀疑地问，你真觉得很多吗?这只是她那个级别的男主管薪水的一半。

Readers, do you have trouble promoting yourselves? Do you see women around you undervaluing their contributions? Does your workplace have transparent, performance-based advancement or compensation systems that help eliminate gender inequities? Or do workers of both genders have to do a lot of self-promotion to get ahead?

读者们，你在推销自己这方面遇到过问题吗?你周围的女性有没有低估自己的成就?你所在的公司是否有可帮助消除性别歧视的透明的、基于工作表现的晋升或薪资体系?抑或无论男女，员工都必须进行大量的自我推销才能成功?

Please Don't Call Me Sweetie

别叫我“亲爱的”

Life's daily challenges are tough enough without having to deal with the little annoyances that chip away at our fragile well being. For me, one of them is being addressed as "sweetie" or ‘hon' by complete strangers.

即使不必应付那些让我们脆弱的幸福感打了折扣的小烦恼，生活中每日面临的挑战也已经够大了。对我来说，有一个小烦恼就是被一个全然不认识的人称为“亲爱的”或是“甜心”。

I get this regularly---from the coffee-cart vendor or department store salesperson, on the phone or at a doctor's office. Since when do strangers feel they can address others with such familiarity? It rankles that some of the people I get this from are young enough that I could pass for their mother---that is, if I had had kids early. I understand the attempts to be friendly or convey warmth, but would the salesperson or vendor addressing me as I stand before them in a suit do the same to a man next to me dressed similarly? Somehow I doubt it.

我经常被卖咖啡的小贩或百货商店售货员这么叫，在电话里或是在医生办公室里。从什么时候开始，陌生人感觉他们可以用这样熟稳的称呼叫别人的?更让人可恼的是，有些这么称呼我的人还很年轻，我够当他们的妈妈了一一如果我早点生了孩子的话。 我明白这些人试图表现得亲切或是表示对你的热情，但是如此称呼站在他们面前西装革履的我的售货员，会对我旁边同样西装革履的男人也这样称呼吗?我有点怀疑。

Is it a generational thing? Or a cultural disconnect? One colleague says she doesn't mind at a1l being ca1led "sweetie" because it makes her feel young. I guess I'm of the Jane Austen school of social conduct that believes "sir" and "madam，""please" and "pardon me" are proper forms of address in daily discourse. I say "excuse me", "madam" or "sir"， "could you please ..." when I have a question or need assistance. Perhaps exaggerate, but I do sometimes worry that the increasing erosion of good manners I see every day or read about could spell the end of a civilized society.

是因为年代不同了吗?还是文化差异?我的一个同事说，她一点也不在意有人叫她“亲爱的”，因为这让她感觉自己很年轻。我猜我在社交行为准则上属于简·奥斯汀派，认为“先生”和“女士”，“请”和“对不起”是日常交流中适直的说法。我会在有问题或需要帮助时说"对不起，女士"或"先生，您能……" 或许我夸大其词了，不过我有时真的担心，我每天看到的或是读到的礼貌举止的日益衰败可能预示着文明社会的终结。

A New York Times article last year detailed how being called "sweetie"or "dear" chips away at the dignity of older people. "Professionals call it elderspeak，the sweetly belittling form of address that has always rankled older people," the article says. The piece refers to studies showing "that the insults can have health consequences, especially if people mutely accept the attitudes behind them."

去年《纽约时报》上的一篇文章详细讲述了对年长的人来说，被称为“亲爱的”有损他们的尊严。文章中说，这种甜蜜但带有贬低色彩的称呼形式总会让年长的人感到恼怒。文章引述了研究结果，说这显示出这种侮辱性称呼能带来健康问题，特别是如果人们默默地接受了称呼背后的态度时。

On several occasions, I speak up , asking others to refrain from addressing me with undue familiarity. Just tell me yes or no or provide help or point me to the right direction---no niceties or terms of endearment necessary. Or please don't call me sweetie and just hand me the dam doughnut.

有几个场合，我会大声说出来，请别人不要用过于熟捻的称呼来叫我。干脆点，告诉我“是”还是“否”，提供帮助或给我指路，不需要亲切的称呼或是表示喜爱的词汇。请别称呼我“亲爱的”，干脆一点把那该死的甜甜圈拿给我。

Readers, what's your take on this? Do you mind being "sweetie-d" by strangers? Have you used these terms yourselves to casually address people you don 't know? And in the spirit of Friday fun, what other little annoyances slow down your juggles?

读者朋友们，你对此有何看法?你在意被陌生人称为"亲爱的"吗?你自己用这样的词称呼过陌生人吗?出于娱人娱己的精神，有其他让你厌恶的小事吗?
