“抹布女”就是指那些愛得無怨無悔，為了愛情寧願犧牲自己的事業、青春，全心全意幫助愛人成功，最後卻被拋棄的悲劇女性。

英譯: mop ladies, women who devote themselves to helping their husbands with their careers but end up abandoned when their husbands succeed. The women are pitied not just because their husbands left them, but because they gave up dreams of their own careers.
