Now, there's a few things to note about this passage.

这段话需要注意几点
First, it's incredibly sexist.

首先它极为性别歧视
It assumes not just merely in reflexive use of phrases.

这不仅仅体现在他的用词上
It assumes that--

它假设
William James assumes he's talking to males,

威廉姆·詹姆斯假设他在和男性那些
male humans who sometimes take the perspective of male bears.

有时从公熊角度看问题的男性讲这段话
And so, it assumes a male audience.

所以它假设接收对象是男性
You wouldn't normally--

通常不会
You wouldn't actually ever write this way.

其实不会有人再这么写了
A second point is it's beautifully written

第二点是他写的很漂亮
and you're not-- also,

你也不同时
not allowed to write that way anymore either.

这种写法(在学术界)也不再被允许了
