我被高中老师说过女生天生比男生学理科困难，所以她也不指望我学多好。我就硬要学给她看。读大学，我被亲戚说女生读出来学历太高没人要。我就是要读，全A毕业。我做家务，下厨，被说贤惠，谁娶了我要幸运死。我马上甩手不干，不伺候。我剃了寸头，被说没有女孩样子。我依旧每月剃头，雷打不动。我读了研究生，被说女生力气天生小拿不动器材。每次拿器材我都冲第一个。他们的话有对我造成困扰吗？以前会，但现在的我学会只专注自己，倾听内心的声音。我也会反驳，跟他们较劲，慢慢的这种声音少了。我用我的实力向他们证明女孩可以是各种各样的，女孩是强大的，是优秀的，女孩是自信的。他们说什么不重要，重要的是我自己觉得我是什么样。

I was told by my high school teacher that girls naturally have a harder time learning science than boys, so she didn't expect me to learn much better. I just insisted on learning to show her. In college, I was told by relatives that no one would want a girl with a high degree. I just had to study and graduate with all A's. I do housework, cooking, was said to be virtuous, who married me to be lucky to die. I immediately shrugged it off and did not serve. I shaved my head and was told I didn't look like a girl. I still shave my head every month, lightning does not change. I went to graduate school and was told that girls are born with little strength and can't hold equipment. I was always the first to get the equipment. Did their words bother me? I used to, but now I've learned to focus on myself and listen to my inner voice. I would also argue back and fight with them, but slowly the voices stopped. I used my strength to prove to them that girls can be all kinds of things, that girls are strong and good, and that girls are confident. It doesn't matter what they say, what matters is what I think I am.
