The euphemism "old maid" traditionally refers to an unmarried woman, often implying that she is past the typical age for marriage. In contemporary usage, it can carry a negative connotation, suggesting loneliness or social stigma. More neutral alternatives include "single woman" or "unmarried woman," which avoid the judgmental implications associated with "old maid."
