In this episode, we talk about "female competition" with Joawe, a friend of ours majored in Anthropology. . . The concept of female competition in biology generally refers to same-sex competition for the purpose of breeding the next generation.The current heated discussion about "female competition", however, refers more to the fact that under the patriarchy system, women resort feminine as their competitiveness to strive for limited social resources in a roundabout mannar. . . As women, each of us has more or less observed and experienced "female competition". In addition to personal experience, we also share our thoughts on the structural causes for the mechanism of "female competition", the relationship between female competition and misogyny, and whether there is a winner or loser as a result of "female competition". . . Finally, we discuss from the perspective of feminism - what we can do to deal with / imporve female competition, and what we can imagine in the future. We welcome interested audience to discuss more on this topic with us. . . Shownotes: 1:08 Our first impression of "female competition". 3:56 Real life experience and observations. 8:29 A main feature of "female competition" is fight for limited resources in a roundabout manner. 9:08 What kind of females have "advantages" in "female competition"? 10:55 Lihua Zhen: In order to avoid being excluded by a female teacher, I tried to stay as an introvert when I was a kid. 13:00 Joawe: The competition that we fight for justice and the competition we fight only because we are women. 17:42 Is there a winner/loser in "female competition"? 21:43 Is there any positivity in "female competition"? 23:46 How can we distinguish between "competition among women" and "competition because we are women"? 24:52 "Female competition" is a product of patriarchy and misogyny, and it is women's competition for social resources that are already restricted. 27:53 The role of men with different sexual orientations in a "female competition" environment. 30:56 Si Mao: Looking at "female competition" outside of gender essentialism. 32:12 What can we do now? “girls help girls”. 33:40 Cyber-women and the imagination of a better competitive environment. . . . 本期节目邀请人类学系专业的朋友Joawe加入，与我们一起讨论话题“雌竞”。生物学上的雌竞概念一般指争取繁殖后代为目的的同性竞争，当下热议的雌竞现象更多是指在父权制下，女性以女性化气质作为竞争力，迂回地争取有限的社会资源。作为女性，我们每一个人对于“雌竞”都有或多或少、或浅或深的观察和经验。个人经历之外，我们还分享了一些思考：雌竞机制产生的环境原因，雌竞和厌女症之间的关系，以及雌竞的结果是否存在输赢。最后，我们以女权主义者的角度讨论了对内卷的雌竞现在能做什么，对未来能有怎样的想象。非常感谢Joawe的加入，也欢迎对此话题感兴趣的听众同我们联系。 . . 主持人：梨花针，四毛 嘉宾：Joawe . .

In this episode, Outlander discussed the "vicinity" and urban life with two friends - Yun and Kon are graduates of University College London in Anthropology and Urban Planning. In their spare time, they often walked the streets together to observe the daily life in the community, and together they wrote the article "Vicinity and the Sense of Community in London Life". Building on their work, we decided to talk about our "vicinity" from the perspective of anthopology, media, and urban planning. Starting by sharing our personal experiences of urban migration, such as moving and travelling, we reconsidered our relationship with the neighbourhood and community and how it is affected by the pandemic. Modern life in the Internet age is becoming more and more landscaped, and urban mobility nowadays has a linear pattern of from point to point. The renewed "vicinity" proposed by the Anthoropologist, Xiang Biao, is to pursue an organic combination of top-down planning and bottom-up action. The discovery of "vicinity" offers an alternative for people to communicate and connect in a diverse society. [Shownotes] 1:44 Discover the "vicinity" in the process of moving 10:10 Rediscover the "vicinity" while travelling 12:04 How the epidemic affects our relationship with "vicinity" 17:37 Understanding the surroundings improves people's sense of community participation 20:29 "Vicinity" proposed by Xiang Biao and its relationship with consumer society 26:03 Kon: How urban planning in London created "vicinity" 32:00 The difference between urban business and community business, and how they are affected by the pandemic 37:31 Si Mao: Technology shrinks our perception of "vicinity" 39:46 Why "vicinity" is still irreplaceable in the Internet age 44:50 Use the balance of authenticity and modernity to ease the anxiety of modern life 56:46 How to find "vicinity" and establish connections in practice 本期异乡人Outlander和两位朋友一起讨论“附近性”和现代都市生活。云和Kon分别是伦敦大学学院（UCL）人类学和城市规划专业的毕业生。他们在业余时间经常一起走街串巷，观察社区中的日常生活，并一起创作了《伦敦生活中的社区感和附近性》。以这篇文章为契机，我们决定先从个人经验的角度来深入谈谈这个话题：从自己流动的经验——求学、搬家和旅行中体验到的附近性聊起，并讨论疫情对我们探索附近的影响。接着我们展开了这一概念在人类学、媒介传播和城市规划的不同面向，将其与更广阔的现代都市生活联系在一起。互联网时代的现代城市越来越景观化，生活变为从点到点的线，而重提附近性，是想追求自上而下的规划与自下而上的行动的有机结合。它提供了另一种可能性——多元人群、便利的生活服务和建立联结的网络。 [时间线] 1:44 在搬家的过程中感受“附近性” 10:10 在旅行中重新发现”附近“ 12:04 疫情如何影响我们与“附近”的关系 17:37 对周边的了解提高了人的社区参与感 20:29 项飙提出的”附近性“及其与消费社会的关系 26:03 阿Kon:伦敦的城市规划是如何营造“附近”的 32:00 城市商业与社区商业的区别，它们如何被疫情影响 37:31 四毛：技术削弱了我们对“附近”的感知 39:46 为什么“附近”在互联网时代依然具有不可替代性 44:50 用本真性和现代性的平衡缓解生活的焦虑 56:46 实践中如何发现“附近”和建立联结
