喜歡shopping的人大概都知道window shopping吧？對(duì)，就是“櫥窗購(gòu)物”，也就是只看不買。愛(ài)逛街的女孩子們肯定都會(huì)說(shuō)這個(gè)詞。不過(guò)，今天我們要說(shuō)的是主要針對(duì)男同胞的，似乎他們平時(shí)不怎么愛(ài)逛街，就算到了商場(chǎng)也是買了東西就走人。他們購(gòu)物所花的時(shí)間就叫做shopping window。

Shopping window refers to the time period during which a guy is actually engaged in the shopping experience. This period can last from almost no time at all to literally hours for a metrosexual, and includes all forms of shopping, from the grocery store to designer boutiques. It should also be noted that this period can be increased through witty girl techniques such as handing a guy a blackberry loaded with brickbreaker to play or sitting him in front of a couch with sportscenter.

Shopping window指某男逛街時(shí)的實(shí)際購(gòu)物時(shí)間，我們就稱其為“男性購(gòu)物時(shí)間”。這個(gè)購(gòu)物時(shí)間可能短到一秒都不到，而對(duì)都市美男來(lái)說(shuō)，也可能會(huì)持續(xù)好幾個(gè)小時(shí)；購(gòu)物的類型也不拘一格，可能是去雜貨店，也可能是去設(shè)計(jì)師專營(yíng)店。另外，這個(gè)男性購(gòu)物時(shí)間也可以通過(guò)借鑒一些女生常用的策略來(lái)延長(zhǎng)，比如，給陪同的伙伴手里塞個(gè)裝有打磚塊游戲的黑莓手機(jī)讓他玩，或者安排他坐在前面有sportscenter節(jié)目可看的休息沙發(fā)上。

例句：

Dude, I am totally down to go try on a few pairs of jeans right now, but I am letting you know that my shopping window is only about 45 minutes today.
哥們兒，我現(xiàn)在要去試幾條牛仔褲，不過(guò)我跟你說(shuō)好，我今天的購(gòu)物時(shí)間只有45分鐘而已。

注：sportscenter是美國(guó)有線電視網(wǎng)ESPN頻道的一個(gè)體育新聞節(jié)目。
