摘要 本文分析了性别与不礼貌之间的复杂关系。我不认为性别和不礼貌是可以在对话中追踪的具体实体,而是认为性别和不礼貌是在互动过程中形成的要素。它们是密切相关的要素,因为刻板印象中的女性性别认同主要是围绕“友善”、支持性、合作行为的概念构建的,要么肯定或抵制这些女性刻板印象。由于当前的许多研究似乎都强调女性的互动竞争力,我对女性作为一个整体在互动中比男性“更好”的观念提出了挑战,我认为,尽管如此,支持性可能会在其他互动者对女性语言行为的判断中发挥作用,并可能导致自信被归类为不礼貌。
Abstract This article analyzes the complex relationship between gender and impoliteness. Rather than assuming that gender and impoliteness are concrete entities which can be traced in conversation, I argue that gender and impoliteness are elements which are worked out within the course of interaction. They are elements which are closely inter-related as stereotypically feminine gender identity is largely constructed around notions of “nice”, supportive, co-operative behaviour, either affirming or resisting those stereotypes of femininity. Challenging the notion that women as a whole are “nicer” than men in interaction, since much current research seems to highlight women’s interactional competitiveness, I argue that nevertheless supportiveness may play a role in other interactants’ judgments of women’s linguistic behaviour and may result in assertiveness being categorized as impoliteness.
