why do people say “don’t be a pussy” when talking about weakness more like “don’t be a man’s ego” because you know there isn’t nothing more fragile than that

uh 

because “pussy” is the shortened form of the word “pusillanimous”, which means “timid, cowardly”

and not the slang word for the female genital region?

literally no one else knows this. nobody. 

WHAT

Sensational.

Remarkable.

it’s a real word

you: pussy

me, an intellectual: pusillanimous

as some people already pointed out in the tags, ‘pussy’ and ‘pusillanimous’ have different linguistic backgrounds, but more importantly

just because ‘faggot’ means ‘a bundle of sticks’ doesn’t mean it’s not a derogatory term that we’ve largely agreed should not be used. The only reason for ‘pussy’ to be treated differently is that it is rooted in misogyny instead of homophobia
