鄰客音陷歧視門：美女不能當工程師？
LinkedIn, the job social networking site, has found itself at the center of a sexism storm after it pulled down ad posts of a woman they deemed too attractive to be a real-life web-engineer.
職業社交網站鄰客音拒絕了一位美麗女士的廣告，認爲她太過美麗，不能勝任網絡工程師一職，由此陷入了一場性別歧視風波。
The controversy began when developer networking platform Toptal posted a series of advertisements onto LinkedIn aimed at the web-engineering sector.
爭端起於網絡開發平臺Toptal針對網絡工程部門，在鄰客音上發佈了一系列廣告。
However, LinkedIn quickly disabled the ads with no explanation and requested images 'related to the product', which caused a furious response from Toptal's CEO.
然而，鄰客音隨即屏蔽了廣告，並且沒有作出解釋，還要求發佈與產品內容相關的圖片，這引起了Toptal總裁的憤怒。
'The fact of the matter is: members of the tech community (LinkedIn users) saw it as impossible that our female engineers could actually be engineers, and a leader of the tech community (LinkedIn) agreed with them,' wrote Toptal's CEO, Taso Du Val in a blog post.
“事實是：鄰客音上的技術人員認爲女性工程師不可能成爲優秀的工程師，並且他們的一位領導也表示贊成”，Toptal的總裁杜瓦爾在博文中寫道。
At first, Toptal had simply sent the same advertisements back to LinkedIn, including that of Argentinian web developer Florencia Antara, but LinkedIn barred them.
起初，Toptal只是向鄰客音發回了同樣的廣告，還包括阿根廷網絡開發商佛羅倫薩·安塔拉，但是鄰客音把它們攔截了下來。
'Today was a disappointing day at Toptal. We saw extreme sexism within the tech community, from an industry leader and advertising partner that we work with quite extensively: LinkedIn,' wrote Du Val in a post entitled 'In Defence of Female Engineers.'
“今天對Toptal來說是灰色的一天。我們在技術領域看到了極爲嚴重的性別歧視，而這種歧視竟然來自這一行業的領軍企業，並且是和我們密切的合作伙伴”。杜瓦爾在一篇題爲《捍衛女性工程師》的文章中寫道。
In response, a spokesperson for LinkedIn, which bills itself as the 'World's Largest Professional Network', said the ads were rejected in a mistake caused by a review at their customer service team.
自詡爲全球最大職業社交網站的鄰客音的發言人迴應說，廣告是由於客服組審查錯誤而被誤退的。
''While Customer Service was going through a standard process of reviewing LinkedIn Ads, TopTal's ads were rejected in error. We have taken the necessary measures to approve the previously rejected ads, and TopTal can now run them on our platform as intended.'
“客服在審查鄰客音廣告時履行標準程序，TopTal的廣告是被錯誤拒絕的。我們已經採取了必要措施批准之前被拒的廣告，TopTal 現在可以把它們放到我們的平臺上了。”
