当问出这一连串问题后,隐藏在「为什么没有XX类型的角色」背后的恰恰是冷峻的现实,这是包含从创作者到制片方、从观众到演员所有人都无法逃避的责任——这是被分摊到所有人头上的「歧视的代价」。
比起「我要面对自己不得不承认的、在当下这个存在种种偏见和歧视的现实社会中得益的真相」(毕竟很多人甚至都做不到承认这一现实 ^-^),「在艺术作品中忍受一些我不喜欢的元素」是远远更易接受的选项,这就是我说的「塞一个XX角色进去是最敷衍和应付的做法」。
想象一下,说服制片方毫无偏见地接受各类剧本、说服导演毫无偏见地选择演员、说服社会毫无偏见地培养演员、乃至说服所有观众毫无偏见地接受各类元素——这是多么令人绝望的工作量啊——然后一个人才能大言不惭地说「因为全社会平等地为所有人提供了机会,所以刻意保障某一类人的名额反而挤占了祂人的机会,因此我拒绝这类作品」
否则,你不过是在车轮碾过别人脊骨时,堵上耳朵还在埋怨颠簸罢了。

私心安利一个可能不是很有名,但我个人喜欢得不得了的芬兰画家,Helene Schjerfbeck (1862-1946)
她生前最有名的应该是前两幅(康复的小男孩和系舞鞋的小女孩),但近些年网上流传得比较广的是她的那些自画像(图三)从古典派的青年,到印象派的中年,到抽象派的老年——有人甚至把这个绘画进化史和Louis Wain精神分裂过程中画的猫相比……我觉得夸张了。个人比较喜欢她中年时期的人像,概括和用色都惊为天人(图四)
历史上女性画家并没有详细的生平记录,只知道她终身未嫁,直到人生的最后一刻都在不停画画。画肖像。我觉得她的肖像自始至终都是画给自己看的,抽象其实是无数个自己重叠:心里的挂念越来越轻,形状也自然越来越简单,寥寥几笔是她最后留给自己的印象——画家终其一生中都在观察,而她最后画布上深陷的眼窝里并没有眼睛。
In great news, there is even one (1) example of a dinosaur cloaca which might hold some cues about dinosaur sex. This cloaca was noticed on a Psittacosaurus specimen in 2016, and has since been reconstructed using 3D modelling.

The truth is, given the state of fossil records, there isn't even really a way of telling if a dinosaur is male or female. Even if a dinosaur skeleton has eggs inside it, it's entirely possible that the dino ate those eggs rather than made them in its body.

Kingfishers compensate for the reflection and refraction of water to pinpoint the depth and position of prey underwater.

'The pigment cells of the sea urchin were also found to be similar to immune and neural cell types in the sea star. Based on the genes shared between them, Meyer et al. propose that pigment cells have a dual role (immune and neural) in sea urchin larvae, while these functions are exerted by two separate cell types in sea stars (Figure 1B).'
