摘要:情人节快到了,情侣们都在想着怎么过情人节,但仍有成千上万的单身男女在忍受着单身的孤独,甚至会遭遇“单身歧视”。你知道怎么用英语表达吗?
In the interview I was directly asked by the owner of the company if I was single or married, I told him。
I was single. He made it a point to acknowledge that the philosophy of the company was to hire married people. I was not offered a position although I had all the qualifications, this is an obvious case of Singlism.

【讲解】
“单身歧视”的英语表达是“Singlism”,是指对单身成年人的不公平的态度和行为,以及差别对待。英语解释是:Unfair attitudes or behavior towards people who are not married or part of a couple. Singlism这个单词跟racism(种族歧视)和sexism(性别歧视)近似。
