Здравствуйте еще раз. Подскажите, пожалуйста, как правильно перевести такое название. Изначально оно взято таким потому, что в ролике девушка, которая сидит в кафе рядом с нарушителем, просит активистов наклеить ему на машину наклейку. Активисты затем предполагают, что она - бывшая девушка/жена нарушителя.
Вот это место в ролике: https://youtu.be/T9YbrY7tpk4?t=2m30s

Prov. There is nothing as unpleasant as a woman who has been offended or whose love has not been returned.

: In US, many dislike this expression because it insults women. Re: answerer's response: I understand the history but definitely wouldn't use it myself - very offensive to many, no smiles. Implies women have less emotional self control than men.

This is an idiomatic expression, with an archaic sound, that comes from well-recognized poetry. It is taken with a tongue-in-cheek these days. It elicits a smile, not gender wars.

I have conducted an informal poll of women in my life, and they regard the expression as benign and rather amusing.
@Mark: Thank you. This is a video title. Something provocative will attract more viewers. US audience has seen and understands this expression for what it is. I gave myself a five with a wink.
