屌絲 diaosi

The word originates from Baidu.com's Tiebar (a top Chinese bulletin board system) for soccer player Li Yi. There, fans of Li, who are called "yisi" in Chinese, not only talk about soccer but complain about their lives, work and relationships.
該詞起源于足球運(yùn)動(dòng)員李毅的百度貼吧（國(guó)內(nèi)知名的BBS）。李毅的球迷“毅絲”們?cè)谫N吧里不僅談?wù)撟闱?，還抱怨自己對(duì)生活、工作與感情的不滿。

"Yisi", who are known for their rude and dirty language, were given the name diaosi by others who have seen their posts.
“毅絲”以語(yǔ)言粗魯，臟話連篇而聞名，看過(guò)他們帖子的人便給他們起了“屌絲”這一稱號(hào)。

Although the word "diaosi" implies a kind of helplessness and self-mockery, these fans write the word with pride and began to list themselves as "diaosi". The word soon inundated the Chinese Internet.
“屌絲”二字蘊(yùn)含著無(wú)奈和自嘲的意味，但是李毅吧球迷“不以為恥、反以為榮”，從此以“屌絲”自稱，并開始一路爆紅網(wǎng)絡(luò)。

Unlike their upper-class contemporaries, they lack influential families, useful social networks for their careers, and most importantly, suitable women to marry.
與處于社會(huì)高層的同齡人相比，他們?nèi)鄙儆袡?quán)勢(shì)的家庭背景，沒(méi)有可以幫助他們發(fā)展事業(yè)的社會(huì)關(guān)系，最重要的是，沒(méi)有合適的結(jié)婚對(duì)象。

女吊絲/女屌絲 female diaosi

The word also originates from Baidu.com's Tiebar (a top Chinese bulletin board system) for soccer player Li Yi. It refers to those single females who lack attention and care from males. Compared to tall, beautiful and rich girls, they belong to a more vulnerable group.
該詞也源自足球運(yùn)動(dòng)員李毅的百度貼吧（國(guó)內(nèi)知名的BBS），意指不受異性關(guān)注和重視的女生，與代表著高挑、漂亮、富有的7分女相比，她們是一個(gè)弱勢(shì)群體。

With a nice personality, they are kind and diligent. They have rich emotions, but are always reserved. Poor salary and plain looks give them a sense of inferiority.
她們心地善良，性格溫和，勤奮上進(jìn)，內(nèi)心感情豐富而內(nèi)斂，卻因?yàn)檠狡?，長(zhǎng)相平平，而心生自卑。
