Many Americans, however, remain worried that a Trump presidency heralds a new age of sexism and misogyny.

On January 21st, the day after the inauguration, some 200,000 American men and women are expected to turn up at a march in Washington
1月21日，在特朗普宣誓就职后的第一天，大约有20万美国男女将会在华盛顿举行游行，

to protest against regressive policies and demand equal treatment for women—and a lot more besides.
以反对倒行逆施的政策并要求平等对待女性——除此之外，还有许多其他的诉求。

The march grew from two unrelated Facebook posts into the "Women's March on Washington", which promises to be the biggest single anti-Trump demonstration yet.
这次的游行从两个不相关的脸书帖子发展成为“华盛顿妇女游行”，这很有可能成为反特朗普游行中最大的的一次。

It has also spawned sister marches in New York, San Francisco, London and dozens of other cities.
并且该游行也催生了纽约、旧金山、伦敦以及许多其他城市同类型的游行。

It was originally called the "Million Women March", until organisers were admonished for appropriating the name of the 1997 "Million Woman March", which focused on African-American women.
这场游行原本叫“百万妇女游行”，直到组织者们被警告他们挪用了1997年旨在关注非洲裔美国女性的“百万妇女游行”的名称。
