請問有沒有人懂這首詩的意思呢?
看了很久還是不了解為什麼
"Everyone saw a fat nose on thick legs"的意思
附上原文

Barbie Doll

This girlchild was born as usual
and presented dolls that did pee-pee
and miniature GE stoves and irons
and wee lipsticks the color of cherry candy.
Then in the magic of puberty a classmate said:
You have a great big nose and fat legs.

She was healthy, tasted intelligent,
prossessed strong arms and back,
abundant sexual drive and manual dexterity.
She went to and fro apologizing.
Everyone saw a fat nose on thick legs.

She was advised to play coy,
exhorted to come on hearty,
exercise, diet, snile and wheedle.
Her good nature wore out
like a fan belt.

So she cut off her nose and her legs
and offered them up.

In the casket displayed on satin she lay
with the undertaker's cosmetics painted on,
a turned-up putty nose,
dressed in a pink and white nightie.
Doesn't she look pretty?everyone said.
Consummation at last.
To every woman a happy ending.

Marge Piercy

接著從拿著娃娃的童話故事 轉變到現實的青春期

: She was healthy, tasted intelligent,

: Everyone saw a fat nose on thick legs.
到了這裡 只剩下fat nose 和 thick legs 是非人化後的結果

哈 是大姐po的耶
不過你po的還真精簡
我再來多話一下
明明還在期末報告和期末考煉獄裡^^"

再淺顯一點來說
這就像是修辭裡的借代吧
人的主體性已經消失
人們只看到她的鼻子和腿
儘管她是健康的
但這人們眼中的缺點已經掩蓋她所有的優點
好比我們說
那個大鼻子的又來了
是大鼻子來了
還是人來了

到最後
她也活在別人的目光裡了

最後一句某種程度也點出
世俗對美麗的標準
讓身材不像模特兒般完美的女人們
有了個happy ending...



趕報告去.....

聽說一部分也是指她在apologize的動作
彎下腰
彎到鼻子正好在腿前面
她愈慚愧　就愈惹人非議

對啊　就是生命的存亡、自我存在的真實都比不上美貌
To every woman a happy ending.
這句話真是夠sad夠可悲的了
