Your Excellencies, UN Secretary General, President of the General Assembly,

Executive Director of UN Women, and distinguished guests.

Today, we are launching a campaign called He for She.

I am reaching out to you because we need your help.

We want to end gender inequality.

And to do this, we need everyone involved.

This is the first campaign of its kind at the UN.

we want to try and galvanize as many men and boys as possible to be advocates for change.

And we don't just want to talk about it.

We want to try and make sure that it's tangible.

I was appointed as Goodwill Ambassador for UN Women six months ago.

And the more I've spoken about feminism,

the more I have realized that fighting for women's rights has too often become synonymous with man-hating.

If there is one thing I know for certain, it is that this has to stop.

For the record, feminism by definition is the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities.

It is the theory of the political, economic and social equality of the sexes.

I started questioning gender-based assumptions a long time ago.

When I was eight, I was confused about being called bossy

because I wanted to direct the plays that we would put on for our parents.

But the boys were not.

when at 14 I started to be sexualized by certain elements of the media

when at 15 my girlfriends started dropping out of their beloved sports teams

because they didn't want to appear muscly

when at 18 my male friends were unable to express their feelings I decided

that I was a feminist and this seemed uncomplicated to me

but my recent research has shown me that feminism has become an unpopular word.

Women are choosing not to identify as feminist.

Apparently, I am among the ranks of women whose expressions are seen as too strong,

too aggressive, isolating, and anti-men.

Unattractive, even.

Why has the word become such an uncomfortable one?

I am from Britain and I think it is right that I am paid the same as my male counterparts.

I think it is right that I should be able to make decisions about my own body.

I think...

I think it is right

that women be involved on my behalf in the policies and the decisions that will affect my life.

I think it is right that socially I am afforded the same respect as men.

But sadly, I can say that there is no one country in the world where all women can expect to receive

these rights.

No country in the world can yet say that they have achieved gender equality.

These rights I consider to be human rights, but I am one of the lucky ones.

My life is a sheer privilege because my parents didn't love me less because I was born a daughter.

My school did not limit me because I was a girl.

My mentors didn't assume that I would go less far because I might give birth to a child one day.

These influences were the gender equality ambassadors that made me who I am today.

They may not know it, but they are the inadvertent feminists who are changing the world today.

we need more of those.

And if you still hate the word, it is not the word that is important.

It's the idea and the ambition behind it.

Because not all women have received the same rights that I have.

In fact, statistically, very few have been.

In 1997, Hillary Clinton made a famous speech in Beijing about women's rights.

Sadly, many of the things that she wanted to change are still true today.

But what stood out for me the most was that less than 30% of the audience were male.

How can we affect change in the world

when only half of it is invited or feel welcome to participate in the conversation?

I would like to take this opportunity to extend your formal invitation.

Gender equality is your issue too.

because to date I've seen my father's role as a parent

being valued less by society despite my needing his presence as a child as much as my mother's.

I've seen young men suffering from mental illness unable to ask

for help for fear it would make them less of a man or less of a man.

In fact, in the UK, suicide is the biggest killer of men between 20 to 49,

eclipsing road accidents, cancer and coronary heart disease.

I've seen men made fragile and insecure by a distorted sense of what constitutes male success.

Men don't have the benefits of equality either.

We don't often talk about men being imprisoned by gender stereotypes, but I can see that they are, and that when they are free,

things will change for women as a natural consequence.

If men don't have to be aggressive in order to be accepted, women won't feel compelled to be submissive.

If men don't have to control, Women won't have to be controlled.

Both men and women should feel free to be sensitive.

Both men and women should feel free to be strong.

It is time that we all perceive gender on a spectrum instead of two sets of opposing ideals.

If we stop defining each other by what we are not,

and start defining ourselves by who we are, we can all be freer.

And this is what he or she is about.

It's about freedom.

I want men to take up this mantle so that their daughters, sisters, and mothers can be free from prejudice,

but also so that their sons have permission to be vulnerable and human too.

Reclaim those parts of themselves they abandoned, and in doing so, be a more true and complete version of themselves.

You might be thinking, who is this Harry Potter girl?

And what is she doing speaking at the UN?

and it's a really good question, I've been asking myself the same thing.

All I know is that I care about this problem and I want to make it better.

And having seen what I've seen and given the chance, I feel it is my responsibility to say something.

Statesman Edmund Burke said, all that is needed for the forces of evil to triumph.

is for good men and women to do nothing.

In my nervousness for this speech, and in my moments of doubt,

I've told myself firmly, if not me, who? If not now, when?

If you have similar doubts when opportunities are presented to you, I hope that those words will be helpful.

Because the reality is that if we do nothing, it will take 75 years,

or for me to be nearly 100, before women can expect to be paid the same as men for the same work.

15.5 million girls will be married in the next 16 years as children.

And at current rates, it won't be until 2086 before all rural African girls can have a secondary education.

If you believe in equality, you might be one of those inadvertent feminists that I spoke of earlier.

And for this, I applaud you.

We are struggling for a uniting word, but the good news is that we have a uniting movement.

It is called He for She.

I am inviting you to step forward,

100

to be seen, and to ask yourself, if not me, who? if not now, when?

101

Thank you very, very much.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
