Interview - Growth, Education, Women in the Workplace
訪談 - 成長、教育、職場中的女性

The topic of “individual value” is currently inseparably tied into the the topic of gender. Being born as and living our lives as a male, female, or other sets expectations, guidelines, and spoken and unspoken rules for the development and direction of our lives. One can choose to accept or fight the general social undercurrents of the times, but the influence of prevailing general gender norms is undeniable in each and every individual's evolution.

「個人價值」的主題與性別議題密不可分。不論是以男性、女性或其他性別出生，皆為我們人生的發展和方向設定了期望值、指南，以及明文和不成文的規則。人可以選擇接受或對抗當代的社會潮流，但普遍對性別的成見將不可否認地影響每個人的成長。

We visited our friends at Gear8 Taiwan, a website design company, to ask about how their experiences as females growing up in society has influenced their lives. Part one of the interview asked them to speak about how they were treated as children, and the kinds of messaging that family and society gave them.

我們造訪了Gear8台灣分部，這是一家網站設計公司，學生們詢問了關於她們作為女性在社會中成長的經歷如何影響她們的生活。訪談的第一階段請她們談論了自己兒時的待遇，以及從家庭及社會收到的信息。

Part two of our interview asked Ann and Carina to speak about their early adulthood, beliefs about men and women in personal relationships, and the rights and role of women in relationships and the family. The past differences they observed between men and women is described with interesting and personal stories.

當訪談進行到了第二階段，我們請兩位受訪者Ann和Carina分享她們的剛成年時的經驗、一些關於兩性在戀愛關係中的看法、以及女性在戀愛關係和家庭中的角色及權利。她們透過有趣的自身故事描述了過去觀察到的兩性之間差異。

In part three, our interviewees share details and memories from their experiences searching for jobs and in their career development. They discuss differences or similarities for men and women in the working world. They conclude with a final message about their beliefs and advice regarding the issue of gender and the workplace.

在訪談的第三階段，受訪者們分享了關於求職經歷和職涯發展中的回憶和細節。她們討論了兩性在職場待遇上的相似和差異處。最後，他們給出了關於職場性別議題的想法和建議作為這次訪談的總結。

After receiving valuable feedback to their interview questions, the students reflected on their findings, feelings, and new ideas. They compared what they imagined about the past and the actual responses they gathered. The students then tried to make logical conclusions about the meaning and reasoning behind some of the realities they heard about. They finished with some reflections about this complex issue that they will further explore in their lives.

學生們在收到给受訪者們寶貴的回饋後，開始反思他們的發現、自身感受和新的想法。他們比將自己預想中的答覆與實際收集到的回應進行了比較。然後，學生們嘗試運用邏輯推論出受訪者所分享的現實背後的造成因素和意義。作為這次學習活動的結尾，他們寫下了關於這些未来會持續探索的複雜議題的心得感想。
