[J-175]  Normal in Sex

       性正常

    A man of normal size was filling in an application form.  When he came to the item of sex, he immediately wrote once or twice a week in the blank space.  It is to be filled in with male or female, an onlooker standing near by advised him zealously.  On this advice the man then crossed out the five words already written and wrote female beside them.  Shouldn't it be male? the bystander asked doubtfully.  But the man answered rightfully: No, I am a normal man.  I have sex with females only.

 

[译注]

 

        一个体型 (大小) 正常的人正在填写一张申请书。当他填到「性别」那个项目时,他立刻写「一周一两次」在那空白里。「那是要填上男或女啦」有个站在附近的旁观者,热心的告诉他。一听到这劝告,那个人就删掉已经写了的那五个字,而写上「女性」在那些字的旁边。「那不应该是男性吗?」那站在一旁者疑惑的问。可是那人正直地回说:「不,我是正常的人。我只跟女性有性行为。」 

 

1. 故事中,那人把“Sex (性别)”误解为“Sex (性行为)

        2. onlooker = looker-on (旁观者)bystander (站在一旁者)on advice (一听劝告)
