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)
