It&#8217;s definitely not a good thing and we use this term to call out people who are being unfaithful in their relationship. Fun fact: \u5288\u817f p\u012btu\u01d0 literally translates to &#8220;split legs,&#8221; which comes from the idea of someone spreading their legs to have sex with someone who is not their partner.
