Belle Watling was the most notorious of the madams.

在这些鸨母，贝尔·沃特琳最臭名昭著的一个。

Don't tell this to my madam, but I cannot accept any money from you.

要告诉我的鸨母，但我能收你任何钱。

And actually a lot of her old acquaintances are kind of rapacious madams and stuff.

实际上，她许多老相识都些贪婪的鸨母之流。

There was also a Chinese brothel madam named Ah Toy, who, unlike any of the other Chinese at this time, actually made use of the American court system to assert her rights.

还有一位名叫阿桃的国妓院鸨母，与当时国人同，她实际上利用美国法院系统来维护自己的权益。

And of course, many women who are referred to as madams are simply female pimps that sometimes have had a prostitution history and consider going into pimping as a promotion and far better than them having to do it themselves.

当然，许多被称为“鸨母”的女性实就女性皮条客，她们有时有过卖淫经历，认为涉足拉皮条一种晋升，远比自己亲自上阵要好得多。
