| Hypergamy (colloquially referred to as "marrying up" or "gold-digging") is a term used in social science for the act or practice of a woman marrying a man of higher caste or social status than herself. * The antonym "hypogamy" refers to the inverse: marrying a person of lower social class or status (colloquially "marrying down"). * Both terms were coined in India in the 19th century while translating classical Hindu law books, which used the Sanskrit terms anuloma and pratiloma, respectively, for the two concepts. The term hypergamy is also used in the context of dating. |
