So, what are you working on these days?
最近在研究什么呢？
I'm studying one-celled organisms to try and find the neurochemicals that lead to the feeling of shame.
我在研究單細胞生物，試圖從它們身上找到引發羞愧感的神經化學物質。
What would a one-celled organism have to be embarrassed about?
單細胞生物會有什么需要感到羞恥的事啊？
Same as all of us, getting out of a car without underwear.
跟人類一樣，車震完沒穿內衣褲下車。
Speaking of underwear, I have some interesting news...-Okay, if it's sometimes Howie wears yours, Leonard already told us.
說到內衣，我有件挺有意思的事...-如果是華仔偶爾會穿你的內衣，那萊納德已經告訴過我們了。
He was being funny. I'm pretty sure.
他只是在搞笑。我挺確定。
Anyway, I was asked to be a part of a magazine article about the 50 sexiest female scientists in California. Isn't that cool?
總之，我受邀參與一篇關于加州最性感的50名女性科學家的雜志專題。挺酷的吧？
I think it's awful.
我覺得很惡心。
Why would you say that?
你怎么會這么說？
Bernadette is a successful microbiologist.
伯納黛特是一位成功的微生物學家。
She should be celebrated for her achievements, not her looks. I mean, what kind of message does that send?
人們應該贊美她的科研成果，而非長相。參與這種雜志專題，人們會怎么想？
I think the message is "Check out the rack on that scientist."
人們大概會想 "快看這童顏科學家的巨乳"。
Why can't someone be thought of as both smart and pretty?
為什么就不能被認為是智慧與美貌并存的呢？
I just don't think a professional woman should have to flaunt her sexuality in order to get ahead.
我只是不覺得一位職場女性需要靠展現自己女性象征來獲得成功。
Okay, what's the big deal? Look, if it helps me make a sale with a physician, I don't think it hurts to flirt a little.
這有什么大不了的啊？如果那能幫我多賣點藥給醫生，我覺得跟人家調情一下也無妨。
I mean, laugh at their joke, touch their arm, maybe crank up the AC in the car beforehand, you know, to wake up the girls.
比如他說笑話就笑一笑，碰碰他們的手臂，下車前開空調冷氣，激凸一下，見醫生管用。
Maybe it's different in the world of sales, but it's already hard enough for women to be taken seriously in science.
可能在銷售業界里不同，但在科學界，女性本來就已經很難被人認真公平對待了。
I was kind of excited about the article, but now you're making me feel bad.
我本來還對參與文章這事挺激動，現在被你說得好難過。
No, I think you should do whatever you want.
我覺得你想做什么就去做。
You know, maybe if fashion magazines had female scientists in them, I would've become a theoretical physicist. Stop smirking at each other.
當年如果有時尚雜志刊載女性科學家照片，說不定我也去當理論物理學家了。少在那邊互相偷笑了。
