不男不女 波兰奇葩理由封杀小熊维尼

 　　Councillors in a small town in Poland have banned Winnie the Pooh claiming the bear is of 'dubious¹ sexuality', is 'inappropriately dressed' and is 'half-naked'.

　　波兰一小镇的议员封杀小熊维尼，他们声称维尼熊“性向不明”，“衣冠不整”而且是”半裸体”。

　　Officials in Tuszyn, central Poland even attacked author AA Milne, describing him as 'disturbing'.

　　波兰中部城市图申的官员甚至对作者A·A·米尔恩进行了人身攻击，称他“扰乱人心”。

　　The town was considering a special mascot² for their new children's playground and someone suggested the popular creation.

　　小镇正在考虑为当地孩子们的新游乐场寻觅一个意义非凡的吉祥物，有人提议了人气王小熊维尼。

　　However, some members of the council attacked the plan, claiming that Winnie the Pooh was a dangerous influence on children.

　　然而，一些议员反对这个提案，声称维尼熊对孩子们会造成不良影响。

　　Councillor Ryszard Cichy, 46, said: 'The problem with that bear is it doesn't have a complete wardrobe.

　　46岁的议员理夏德·齐希说道：“这只熊的问题在于他衣冠不整。”

　　'It is half-naked which is wholly inappropriate for children.'

　　“他是半裸体的，这对孩子们来说太不合适了。”

　　He then suggested a Polish fictional³ bear, saying: 'Ours is dressed from head to toe, unlike Pooh who is only dressed from the waist up.'

　　他随后提名了波兰的一只虚构熊并说：“我们的这只熊从头到脚都包的严严实实的，不像维尼只穿着上衣。”

　　The meeting, which was recorded by one of the councillors and leaked to local press, then turned on Winnie the Pooh's sexuality.

　　这次会议被一位议员记录在册并泄露给了当地出版社，且他们对维尼的性向也颇有说辞。

　　One official is heard saying: 'It doesn't wear underpants because it doesn't have a sex. It's a hermaphrodite.'

　　一位官员听说了此事说道：“他性向不明所以没有穿内裤。他是雌雄同体的。”

　　Councillor Hanna Jachimska then began criticising the Winnie the Pooh author Alan Alexander Milne.

　　议员汉纳·杰齐西卡随后开始抨击小熊维尼的作者艾伦·亚历山大·米尔恩。

　　She said: 'This is very disturbing but can you imagine! The author was over 60 and cut his [Pooh's] testicles off with a razor blade because he had a problem with his identity.'

　　她说：“你能想象这有多么恼人吗！这位年逾60的作家拿刀片切掉了维尼的睾丸，就因为他对自己的性向认知感到迷茫。”

　　The councillors have yet to make a formal decision about which bear will be the patron of the children's playground.

　　议员们尚未正式决定由哪只熊坐镇孩子们的游乐场。

　　But Winnie the Pooh is not a candidate, they said.

　　但他们表示小熊维尼绝不会是候选人。
