Women criticise themselves at least 8 times a day
The average woman criticises herself at least eight times a day, a study has found.
研究显示,普通女性每天至少会"嫌弃"自己八次.
A worrying trend of negativity among women was revealed by a survey of 2,000 women - with one in seven women admitting to criticising themselves regularly throughout their day.
这项由2000名女性参加的调查显示出女性群体令人担忧的消极自我认知：七分之一的女性承认自己每天都会时不时地"嫌弃"自己.
Most of those surveyed wanted to lose weight, and image-based criticisms were by far the most prevalent.
大部分受访女性表示想要减肥——就目前看来,针对个人形象的"自我嫌弃"是最普遍的.
Not earning enough money and deliberately deflecting compliments were other common put-downs.
"嫌自己赚钱不多"以及"有意曲解他人的称赞"是其他几个常见的自我贬低方式.
Selfies and social media platforms such as Instagram were blamed as being a driving force behind today's visual culture.
自拍和诸如Instagram等社交媒体平台被认为是当今"看脸"文化的始作俑者.
Women are bombarded with images of perfection while at the same time expected to balance both working lives and family lives, which experts concluded led to women's critical relationships with themselves.
女性不断受到完美女人形象的视觉轰炸,并同时承受着平衡好工作和家庭的期待.专家们认为：正是这些现实因素导致了女性对自身的不满.
Lifestyle judgements were also found to be prevalent, including not earning enough money or having the 'right' job.
同样普遍的是她们对自己生活方式的不满,比如收入不高,对目前工作不满意等等.
'Today's hectic and visually-driven world has meant that we're seeing a rise in women being self-critical, from the way they look to the way they feel at work,' said Zoe Griffiths, Head of Public Health and Programme at Weight Watchers, which conducted the survey.
国际减肥协会公共卫生和计划主管佐伊·格里菲斯是本次调查的负责人.她表示："在这个快节奏的看脸的世界,无论是在外形长相上还是工作状态方面,越来越多的女性开始自我否定."
'Our research has shown that being unkind to ourselves has been an underlying theme for women for many years, but a set of very modern cultural conditions have increased the intensity of this unkindness which are hard to avoid.
"研究表明,女性更倾向于苛求自身,多年来这个问题一直存在.但当代文化现状导致这种无法避免的严苛进一步加深了."
'At Weight Watchers we know that to adopt a healthy lifestyle it is important to build a better relationship with yourself in order to make a positive change.'
"通过国际减肥协会我们知道,为了实现健康的生活方式、达到积极的改变,我们应该与自身建立良好的关系."
The findings also showed that women begin berating themselves early in the day, with almost half of those surveyed - 46 per cent - admitting to criticising themselves at least once before 9.30am.
