姊弟戀

  By

英文：tadpoling (n.)

說明：tadpoling 的動詞為 tadpole，意為「搞姊弟戀」。tadpole 亦可當名詞用，意為「蝌蚪」。事實上，tadpoling 真正的含義是，三十如狼、四十如虎的中年婦女與非常年輕的男生 (兩人相差至少 10 歲) 的交往。姊弟戀中的半老徐娘就叫做 tadpoler。英文中還有一個字可以稱呼這種想要跟年紀比自己小很多的男子發生關係的中年婦女，那就是 cougar (原義為「美洲獅」)。

例句：

  • Tadpoling is not accepted by most people. (姊弟戀不為大多數人所接受)
  • Anna is tadpoling by dating such a young man. (安娜跟這麼年輕的男生約會，是在搞姊弟戀)
