英文释义

名词 n.
  1. The seeking of a spouse of lower socioeconomic status or caste than oneself. uncountable
    — The reverse (hypogamy) is rare because with marriage a woman and her future offspring take on the social position of the husband, and so an upper‐class woman marrying a lower‐class man reduces her position as well as that of her children.
