Look up sissy in Wiktionary, the free dictionary.
Sissy (derived from sister ), also sissy baby , sissy boy , sissy man , sissy pants , etc., is a pejorative term for a boy or man who does not demonstrate masculine , and shows possible signs of fragility. Generally, sissy implies a lack of courage , strength , athleticism, coordination , testosterone , male libido , and stoic calm, all of which have typically been associated with masculinity and considered important to the male role in Western society. A man might also be considered a sissy for being interested in typically feminine hobbies or employment (e.g., being fond of fashion), displaying effeminate behavior (e.g., using hair products, hydrating products, or displaying limp wrists), being unathletic, or being homosexual. [1]

Sissy is, approximately, the male converse of tomboy (a girl with masculine traits or interests), but carries more strongly negative connotations. Research published in 2015 suggests that the terms are asymmetrical in their power to stigmatize: sissy is almost always pejorative and conveys greater severity, while tomboy rarely causes as much concern but also elicits pressure to conform to social expectations. [2] In some communities, especially ones whose members are prominently part of Generation Z , highly effeminate males are referred to as "Femboys" (feminine boy) or "Roseboys", terms which aim to provide a way to refer to effeminate males without negative connotations.

Sissy is also a term of endearment used as a diminutive for the female given name Cecilia. Its usage as a diminutive for Cecilia dates back to at least the late 19th century. Its usage is explicitly called out in Charles Dickens' Hard Times: For These Times [3] (first published in 1854), and remained in common usage at least in the United States until the 1950s and 1960s [ citation needed ] , although it has since fallen out of favor (coinciding with the rise in its usage as a pejorative).

The term sissy has historically been used among school children as a "relentlessly negative" insult implying immaturity and gender or sexual deviance. [4] It has been identified as "sexist" in guidance issued to schools in the United Kingdom [5] and described as "just as unacceptable as racist and homophobic language." [6] The terms gender creative , [7] pink boy , [8] and tomgirl [9] have been suggested as polite alternatives. The Japanese word bishōnen (literally "beautiful youth") and the Korean word kkonminam (literally "flower boy") are also polite terms for a man or boy with gentle or feminine attributes.

The word sissy in its original meaning of "sister" entered American English around 1840-1850 and acquired its pejorative meaning around 1885–1890; the verb sissify appeared in 1900–1905. [10] In comparison, the word tomboy is approximately three centuries older, dating to 1545–55. [11]

By the 1930s, "there was no more damning insult than to be called a sissy " and the word was widely used by American football coaches and sports writers to disparage rival teams and encourage ferocious player behavior. [12] The use of the word sissy was "ubiquitous" among delinquent American youth of the 1930s; the term was used to provoke boys to join gangs, demean boys who violated group norms, force compliance with the mandates of masculinity, and justify violence (including sexual violence) against younger and weaker children. [13] Good students were taunted as sissies and clothing styles associated with higher social classes were demeaned as sissified. Among members of a Detroit youth gang in 1938–39, sissy was "the ultimate slur" used to tease and taunt other boys, as a rationalization for violence against rivals, and as an excuse for not observing the dictums of middle-class decorum and morality. [13]

By the late 1980s, some men began to reclaim the term sissy for themselves. [14] The spelling variation cissy was used in British English, at least prior to the mid 1970s. [15] In the United States, the Comedy Central television series South Park inverted its meaning in a 2014 episode titled " The Cissy ", which lampooned the controversy over transgender students' use of school restrooms; [16] in the episode a restroom initially designated for use by transgender students is later re-designated as "the cissy bathroom" for use by trans-phobic cisgender students.

Sissies are sometimes perceived as threats to masculine power. For example, in 2018, official Chinese state media derided "sissy pants" young men (who use makeup, are slender, and wear androgynous clothing) as part of a “sickly” culture that threatened the future of the nation by undermining its militaristic image. [17] [18] In 2021, China's Ministry of Education issued guidelines for the "cultivation of students' masculinity" to "prevent the feminization of male adolescents" through sports, physical education, and "health education" in schools. [19] [20]

In 2021 the National Radio and Television Administration of China added a ban on “sissy men and other abnormal esthetics” to its rules using the offensive term niang pao . [21]

In his The "Sissy Boy Syndrome" and the Development of Homosexuality (1987), the sexologist Richard Green compared two groups of boys: one group was conventionally masculine; the other group, who Green called "feminine boys" and other children called "sissy", engaged in doll play and other behavior typical for girls. [22] In his 15-year longitudinal study, Green looked at cross-gender behavior in boys who later turned out to be transgender, or homosexual as well as a control group, and analyzed such features as interest in sports, playroom toy preferences, doll-play fantasy, physical behavior ("acting like a girl" vs rough-and-tumble play ), cross-dressing, and psychological behavior, [22] : 21–29 using tests, questionnaires, interviews, and follow-ups. He also looked at the influence of parental relationships [22] : 353–369 and reaction to atypical behavior. Later follow-ups found that 3/4 of his feminine or "sissy" boys became gay or bisexual men, whereas only one of the control group did. Analysis of the nature/nurture issue was inconclusive. [22] : 385

The term sissyphobia denotes a negative cultural reaction against "sissy boys" thought prevalent in 1974. [23] Sissyphobia has more recently been used in some queer studies ; [24] other authors in this latter area have proposed effeminiphobia , [25] femiphobia, [26] femmephobia, or effemimania [27] [28] as alternative terms.

Gregory M. Herek wrote that sissyphobia arises as combination of misogyny and homophobia . [29] Communication scholar Shinsuke Eguchi (2011) stated:
The discourse of straight-acting produces and reproduces anti-femininity and homophobia (Clarkson. 2006). For example, feminine gay men are often labeled "fem," "bitchy," "pissy," "sissy," or "queen" (e.g., Christian, 2005; Clarkson, 2006; Payne,2007). They are perceived as if they perform like "women," spurring straight-acting gay men to have negative attitudes toward feminine-acting gay men (Clarkson, 2006; Payne, 2007;Ward, 2000). This is called sissyphobia (Bergling, 2001). Kimmel (1996) supports that "masculinity has been (historically) defined as the flight from women and the repudiation of femininity" (p. 123). Thus, sissyphobia plays as the communication strategy for straight-acting gay men to justify and empower their masculinity. (p. 38). [30]
Eguchi added, "I wonder how 'sissyphobia' particularly plays into the dynamic of domestic violence processes in the straight-acting and effeminate-acting male same-sex coupling pattern." (p. 53). [30]

In the BDSM practice of forced feminization , the male bottom undergoing cross-dressing may be called a sissy as a form of erotic humiliation , which may elicit guilt and/or sexual arousal .

In paraphilic infantilism , a sissy baby is a man who likes to play the role of a baby girl. [31]


Are you ready to go “ Down The Sissification Rabbit Hole?” Then read this…
W e sissies are notorious for spending an inordinate about of time to look our very best. From buying new clothes, shoes and lingerie to perfecting our makeup skills—and everything else in between—like shaving, weight loss and learning to sit, walk and talk like a lady .
But is there something more that you could be doing that would otherwise help along your feminization endeavors?
How about giving your femininity a little extra boost by eating feminizing foods that have been, more-or-less, confirmed to enhance estrogen levels in the body? Including them in your diet can play a small, but important, part in helping you to look, feel and actually become more feminine.
These plant based foods—much like feminizing herbs —are rich in chemical compounds known as phytoestrogens which, interestingly enough, have a strong tendency to bind with estrogen receptors within the body and imitate estradiol-like effects.
There are three sub-categories of Phytoestrogens: isoflavones (most common), lignans (2nd most common) and coumestans (least common).
In this article I will talk about eight phytoestrogen rich foods. I cherry-picked them from the chart in this article that ranks the top 50 plant-based foods that have the ability to create phytoestrogens. These elite eight are ranked from lowest to highest.
I wanted to include foods that represented a relatively wide range across differing food groups. Also, many—but not all—of the eight are foods that I enjoy eating myself; both because they are so-called feminine foods AND also healthy ones.
Peaches and strawberries contain phytoestrogens primarily from the lignans category. Although fairly low down on the above mentioned chart of 50, both fruits are readily available—particularly in the summer months—at your local supermarket.
Plus, they’re fruit. And these two types of fruits happen to taste incredibly good (I think anyway). Since I happen to be biased towards exceptional tasting fruit, they made this list.
Like the above two fruits, broccoli, green beans and cabbage also derive the bulk of their phytoestrogens from the lignans group. All three belong to the cruciferous category of vegetables.
Although they rank higher up on the list of 50 phytoestrogen-rich foods than strawberries and peaches, all three of them are nested only about half-way up the chart.
I picked them for this list of eight because, not only are they foods that you’re familiar with, but you can buy them pretty much anywhere and in any season.
Plus, they’re vegetables! And vegetables are good for you, right? All of the three are fairly good tasting (IMO). So why not eat something that is good for you , tastes alright, but will also help you to become more feminine all at the same time?
Walnuts, almonds and sunflower seeds inherit their phytoestrogens—again—from the lignans category. They’re, more-or-less, grouped together higher up on the list of feminizing foods than the three cruciferous vegetables (#7), but not all that much higher.
Nuts and seeds are, obviously, separate food categories from fruits and vegetables so it was a no-brainer to add these three to my list of eight feminization foods.
Plus, I happen to LOVE nuts and seeds, and these happen to be three of my favorites. If anything should be on this list, this phytoestrogen-rich trio should be!
Alfalfa sprouts are different from the previous three types of foods as they acquire their phytoestrogens from the isoflavones group.
In the spirit of total transparency, I’ve never loved the taste of alfalfa sprouts and personally, rarely eat them.
I felt compelled however to put some type of feminizing food on this list that I wasn’t particularly fond of. It makes me look like I’m not such a biased bitch—although I probably am. Plus, sprouts happen to be at a fairly lofty #26 on this list of 50.
Anyway, if you like alfalfa sprouts, go ahead and eat them to your heart’s delight. They may turn out to be that slight edge your looking for in order to complete your femininity.
I included black licorice—not just because it holds down an impressive #21 position on the list of 50 foods that are high in phytoestrogens—but also, as feminizing foods go, it’s an anomaly. Licorice happens to receive almost equal amounts of its phytoestrogens from both the isoflavones and lignans groups.
Honestly, I haven’t eaten a piece of licorice since I was a little kid. But writing about the subject of feminizing foods has inspired me to try some soon.
If you’re not into candy, there are different forms of licorice root available: liquid extract, powder or licorice tea.
There is a ginormous increase in the phytoestrogens present in feminizing foods that inhabit in the top tier of the chart in this article .
Since sesame seeds are #10 on that list they deserve your undivided sissy attention. Like sunflower seeds, they’re almost wholly comprised of the lignans type of phytoestrogens.
But—and this is a HUGE but —they have 40 times the amount phytoestrogen than sunflower seeds. That’s the reason why I separated them apart from their step-sister seeds.
Besides all the health benefits that these tiny seeds provide, they are pretty damn tasty! It doesn’t get much better when it comes to an estrogen-rich food.
I did buy a jar of sesame butter recently and wound up eating way too much of it in one sitting. Warning: be careful, if you know what I mean.
I’ll come right out and blurt it out… I’m not a fan-girl of soybeans… or anything soy related for that matter. But since soy products in general—and soy beans in particular—contain such a huge amount of phytoestrogens, I was forced to include them on my list of the top 8 feminization foods.
However, while doing some fact finding on soy beans (they belong to the isoflavones category – not that you cared), I dug up this report that serves to confirm my bias.
To be completely fair to soy beans, it would be possible to find an opposing opinion on many of these estrogenic foods.
Flaxseeds, sit atop this list—as well as everyone else’s—for a damn good reason. Their phytoestrogen content, mainly coming from the lignans category, are three times the amount of soy products… and literally light years ahead of all the other feminizing foods put together!
As a sissy interested in augmenting your femininity, the only question you should be asking is, “what’s the best way to get flaxseeds into my body.”
In this form, you can sprinkle it on just about any food you want. I prefer to eat flaxseed meal (almost everyday BTW) straight from a spoon. Since it quickly breaks down into a sticky-like substance once inside the mouth, I li
