Anyway...is it necessary to define it? Have you ever met a man who acted like a girl? Prissy? I know some pretty manly men who wear designer jeans and have a faux hawk, so while the quiz is funny, it's not [all] that. BUT, if a man talks like a girl, gestures like a girl, walks like a girl and acts like a girl--we call that prissy.
I'd say that real men define what's manly and feminine women define what's prissy. When the lines get crossed, it's obvious to everyone in the vicinity.
IMO, there's a difference between prissy and a "sissy." I call a coward a sissy. That's not an admirable quality, but it's not quite the same as being prissy. (effeminate) |
Ya, your right. Usually the type of cloths and other adornments including hair styling is more an issue of wealth rather than an indication of the "manliness" of a guy. I am sure John Wayne didn't go to a $5 barber (of course, maybe he did... I don't know).
And I don't consider being
prissy all that attractive in a woman either. Granted, it is easier to stomach then when a man is, but I do not care for either. LOL
