(noun) when a female gets pregnant on purpose, with the hope that the baby daddy will then marry her. Once a wife, women are often referred to as "the old ball and chain" because they keep a guy held down; away from his friends; "imprisoned."
Tiffany lied to Marquez about being on birth control, and now she's going to have her little ball and chain baby--but there's no way that Marquez is going to marry her.
