(单词翻译:单击)

NoMo refers to a woman who is not a mother, particularly by circumstance1 rather than by choice. (not + mother)
 
“非妈族(not+mother)”指不是母亲的女性,她们通常不是自愿选择不做母亲,而是境况使然。
 
Example:
Once I'd begun to make peace with this idea, I felt I could start moving forwards. And I discovered I was far from alone. There were plenty of us so-called2 "NoMos" out there.
一旦我开始坦然接受,我就觉得我可以继续生活下去。而且我发现我并不是孤单一人,像我一样的“非妈族”还有很多。
