Omega is the last letter of the Greek alphabet. An omega male then is the "last" man. In essence, if you were to rank all the men in the world by their virtues (bravery, intelligence, leadership, generosity, etc.), an omega male altogether would be the worst, hence "last," of all men.

Omega是希臘字母表中的最后一個字母。因此，omega male自然指的就是男人中排在“最后一名”的人。也就是說，如果要給全世界的男人按照勇敢、智力、領導能力、慷慨程度等優點排名的話，omega male肯定是排名最后的。因此，這里譯為“絕世衰男”。

Typical omega male traits include an intense interest in a particular hobby, which consequently draws his time and energies away from the conventionally 'important' things in life, like work or romantic relationships. The omega male is a fun-loving but non-aspirational individual who is reluctant to 'grow up' by embracing classic social imperatives like marriage, family and holding down a regular job.

典型的“絕世衰男”特征包括：沉迷于某個愛好，因此把大量的時間和精力花在這個愛好上從而忽略了工作、愛情等生活中一些重要的事情。他們喜歡玩樂，但并不渴望有所成就，他們不愿意按照結婚、成家，以及有個穩定的工作等傳統的社會標準來當個“大人”。

This often-unemployed, romantically challenged loser can show up as a perpetual adolescent, or a charmless misanthrope, or a happy couch potato. He can be sweet, bitter, nostalgic, or cynical, but he cannot figure out how to be a man.

這些衰男時常處于失業狀態，感情發展也不順利。他們有時像永遠長不大的孩子，有時又是個惹人厭的憤世分子，有時又躺在沙發上盯著電視傻樂。他可以是甜蜜的、苦澀的、憂愁的，或者憤世的，但他似乎總是不知道該怎樣做個真正的男人。
