/diǎo sī/
释义 DEFINITION

基本定义:

  • 字面指男性阴毛(粗俗用语)
  • 网络语境指代经济条件普通、社会地位较低、缺乏异性缘的年轻男性群体

现代用法:2012年爆红后演变为全民自嘲符号,约70%的使用场景为自我调侃,常见于游戏圈(如'黄金段位屌丝')、职场(如'加班屌丝')等场景。近年出现'屌丝逆袭'等正能量变体用法。

词源故事 ETYMOLOGY

2011年百度李毅吧用户发明该词时,刻意选用粗俗字眼进行反讽。据《中国青年报》统计,该词爆发式传播始于2012年3月,单月百度搜索量激增4800%。

关键转折点包括:

  1. 2012年大鹏导演网剧《屌丝男士》热播
  2. 小米手机创始人雷军公开自称'IT届老屌丝'
  3. 2013年BBC专题报道将其译为'Diaosi'

近年演变出亚文化分支,如'学术屌丝'(PhD学生自嘲)、'精致屌丝'(追求性价比消费)。例句:'月薪五千在一线城市只能当个租房屌丝。'

synonym: beta male

DEFINITION

Core Meaning:

  • Literally refers to male pubic hair (vulgar term)
  • Internet slang describing underprivileged young men with limited economic means and social appeal

Cultural Context: Comparable to 'neckbeard' but with more self-deprecating humor. Unlike incels, diaosi culture often contains aspirations for upward mobility, as seen in the popular phrase 'diaosi counterattack' (逆袭). Frequently used in gaming communities to mock low-ranked players.

ETYMOLOGY

The term was born in 2011 on Baidu's Li Yi Forum, where users deliberately adopted vulgar vocabulary as social satire. Baidu search data shows explosive growth of 4800% in March 2012 alone.

Key milestones:

  1. 2012 web series Diors Man directed by Da Peng
  2. Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun publicly claiming to be an 'old IT diaosi'
  3. BBC's 2013 documentary translating it as 'Diaosi'

Modern variations include 'academic diaosi' (PhD candidates) and 'refined diaosi' (cost-performance consumers). Example: 'With 5k monthly salary in Shanghai, I'm just a rent-paying diaosi.'
