I'm not good enough for anything.
제대로 하는 게 아무것도 없어.

It is literally impossible to be a woman.
You are so beautiful and so smart,

and it kills me that you don't think you're good enough.

Like, we have to always be extraordinary,

but somehow we’re always doing it wrong.

You have to be thin, but not too thin. And you can never say you want to be thin.
You have to say you want to be healthy,

but also you have to be thin.
You have to have money,

but you can’t ask for money because that’s crass.
You have to be a boss, but you can’t be mean.
You have to lead, but you can’t squash other people’s ideas.
You’re supposed to love being a mother,

but don’t talk about your kids all the damn time.
You have to be a career woman,

but also always be looking out for other people.
You have to answer for men’s bad behavior,

which is insane, but if you point that out, you’re accused of complaining.
You’re supposed to stay pretty for men,

but not so pretty that you tempt them too much

or that you threaten other women.
because you’re supposed to be a part of the sisterhood.
But always stand out and always be grateful.
But never forget that the system is rigged.
So find a way to acknowledge that but also always be grateful.
You have to never get old,

never be rude, never show off, never be selfish,

never fall down, never fail, never show fear, never get out of line.
It’s too hard! It’s too contradictory

and nobody gives you a medal or says thank you.
And it turns out in fact that not only are you doing

everything wrong, but also everything is your fault.

I’m just so tired of watching myself and every single other woman

tie herself into knots so that people will like us.

And if all of that is also true for a doll just representing women,

then I don’t even know.

 

여자로 사는 거 진짜 힘들다.
이렇게 아름답고 똑똑한데 그런 생각을 하다니 마음이 찢어져

 

우린 항상 비범해야 하는데, 언제나 잘 못하고 있지.

 

마르되 너무 마르면 안 되고
건강을 강조하지만 동시에 말라야 하지.
돈은 필요한데 돈 얘긴 안 돼. 속물 같거든.
결단력 있지만 성격도 좋고,
앞장은 서되 남들 생각도 포용해야 하지.
엄마라 행복해야 하지만 자식 얘기만 하면 안 돼.
일도 잘하면서 배려심도 있어야 해.
남자들 행실도 책임지래 미친 거지.
지적하면 불평한다고 욕이나 먹어.
외모 관리는 필수지만 너무 예뻐서 남자를 부추기거나 여자의 적이 되면 안 돼.
여성과 연대하면서도 튀어야 하거든.
항상 감사하되 불평등한 사회란 걸 잊어선 안 돼.
그니까 그걸 인지하는 동시에 감사해야 하지.
늙어서도 안 되고 무례도 잘난 척도 금지.
이기심도 좌절도 안 되고,
실패도 두려움도 돌방행동도 절대 금지야.
너무 어렵고 모순 투성이지만 포상도 감사 인사도 없어.
그리고 결국엔 내 방법은 다 틀렸고 전부 내 잘못이래.

나 포함 모든 여자가 다른 사람 마음에 들려고
자길 옥죄는 것도 지긋지긋한데
여자란 이유로 인형도 그런 일을 겪는다면 대체 어떡해야 해?
