美国传奇歌手多莉·帕顿和女权主义先锋格洛丽亚·斯坦纳姆在短短八天内相继去世，在全球引发了关于女性权益的深刻反思。帕顿逝世于8月25日1，而斯坦纳姆则在9月2日1离世。两人虽然采取了各异的方式，但都为推进女性自主权和自我认知做出了重要贡献。
作为女权运动的标志性人物，斯坦纳姆曾在1987年的《Ms.》杂志中将帕顿评选为"年度女性之一"1。虽然帕顿在2019年的一档播客中明确表示"不，我不认为自己是女权主义者"1，但她通过音乐和商业成就同样支持了女性权益，与斯坦纳姆创办《Ms.》杂志以明确的政治立场推进女性解放形成了不同但互补的路径。帕顿的去世甚至得到了政治领域的特殊致敬——特朗普下令为其降半旗致敬1。希拉里·克林顿随后发文纪念斯坦纳姆，称其激进主义建立在乐观之上1。
The deaths of American music legend Dolly Parton and feminist pioneer Gloria Steinem within eight days have prompted worldwide reflection on their distinct yet complementary legacies for women's rights. 1 Parton died on August 25, while Steinem passed away on September 2. 1 Though the two pursued markedly different paths—Steinem as an outspoken political activist and Parton as a reluctant symbol of female empowerment—both advanced ideals of women's autonomy and self-determination. 1
Steinem founded Ms. magazine as a platform for explicit feminist advocacy, and in 1987 recognized Parton as one of her "Women of the Year" through the publication. 1 Despite this acknowledgment, Parton explicitly rejected the feminist label, stating in a 2019 podcast titled Dolly Parton's America: "No, I don't think of myself as a feminist." 1 Yet through her musical career and business achievements, Parton championed women's rights in her own way, even as she maintained distance from political alignment—remarking during the 2016 U.S. presidential election that she believed both Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton were "crazy." 1 Following Parton's death, Trump ordered flags to be lowered to half-staff in her honor. 1 Clinton subsequently reflected on Steinem's activism, writing that it had been "grounded in optimism." 1
