一切还要从1月31日的一条推文说起，超模凯特·阿普顿在推文中写道，

"It's disappointing that such an iconic women's brand @Guess is still empowering Paul Marciano as their creative director #metoo."

“#metoo Guess这样的女性大牌竟然还在聘保罗·马西亚诺当他们的创意总监，实在是令人失望。”

who she says assaulted and began harassing² her during her first professional modeling campaign when she was 18.

last month lawmakers introduced a bill in New York that would hold designers, retailers⁵ and agencies accountable for abuses.

In a statement to TIME, Marciano called the accusations⁶ "absolutely false" and "preposterous⁷."

在给本刊的一份声明中，马西亚诺称这些指控“全都是假的”，“简直荒谬可笑”。

I have never been alone with Kate Upton, he said. "I have never touched her inappropriately.

“我从未和凯特·安普顿单独相处过，”他说。 “我从来没有对她有过任何不当触碰。

Nor would I ever refer to a Guess model in such a derogatory manner."

After the first day of shooting the Guess Lingerie campaign in 2010, Paul Marciano said he wanted to meet with me.

2010年拍完Guess内衣秀首日活动之后，保罗·马西亚诺说他想和我见个面。

As soon as I walked in with photographer Yu Tsai,

我和摄影师蔡羽一进去，

Paul came straight up to me, forcibly grabbed my breasts and started feeling them—playing with them actually.

保罗就立刻朝我走过来，强行抓住我的胸，开始摸我的胸——准确地说是玩弄。

After I pushed him away, he said, "I'm making sure they're real."

我把他推开之后，他说，“我只是确认一下它们是不是真的啊。”

Despite doing everything I could physically⁹ do to avoid his touch throughout the meeting,

在整个见面过程中，尽管我已经拼尽全力躲开他的触摸了，

he continued to touch me in a very dominating and aggressive way, grabbing my thighs¹⁰, my arms to pull me closer,

他还是非常强硬，非常蛮横地摸我，抓着我的大腿，我的手臂把我往他那边拉，

my shoulders to pull me closer, my neck, my breasts, and smelling me.

抓我的肩膀，搂我的脖子，我的胸把我往他那边拽，还凑到我身上闻来闻去。

He then told Yu Tsai to leave us alone.

接着他又让蔡羽走开，好单独和我相处。

I was able to send a quick text to Yu Tsai asking him to stay.

我连忙快速地示意蔡羽不要走。

He did, but that did not stop Paul's constant grabbing.

他留下来了，但那也没能阻止保罗继续不断地抓我。

I was extremely shaken, surprised and scared.

我当时无比震惊也无比害怕，当时整个人都在发抖。

At one point he forcibly grabbed the back of my head so that I could not move and started kissing my face and my neck.

中间他还用力抓着我的后脑勺，这样他强吻我的脸我的脖子的时候我就无法动弹了。

I remember not wanting to say "Get off of me" because I didn't want to open my mouth to say anything

我记得，当时我连“放开我”都不想说了，因为我不想张开嘴说一句话，

because I didn't want him to be able to put his tongue in my mouth.

因为我不想让他把他的舌头伸进我的嘴里。

I had two options: do everything I could to wiggle away and avoid his pursuit, or punch the CEO of Guess.

当时我有两个选择：尽我所能摆脱并避开他的攻势，或者给这位Guess的CEO两拳。

So I decided¹¹ to just wiggle away.

最后我选择了避开。

Then Paul insisted that he walk me up to my hotel room.

后来，保罗坚持要陪我走回我宾馆的房间。

I immediately declined.

我立刻拒绝了。

The only thing I was thinking is, If he touches me like that in public, I can't imagine what he'd try to do in private.

我当时唯一的念头就是，他在公共场合都敢那样摸我，简直不敢想象私下里他还会做出什么样的行为。

Thankfully, Yu Tsai stepped in and insisted he'd do it.

值得庆幸的是，蔡羽终于插手进来了，坚持他送我回去。

I was so relieved and felt like I had barely escaped.

我当时长吁了一口气，感觉自己仿佛逃过了一截。
