2. Unkindness always makes sad. Always has, always will. If you were to direct those comments towards me, I would probably get angry. Sissy, effeminate are not words that could be directed at me. I'm neither gay nor male, so why would they get me angry? When you use words to disparage someone because they are different from you, when they don't share your sensibilities, to make you look bigger, better, stronger, more powerful, it doesn't anger me, it saddens me. I keep hoping for a better, kinder, gentler world. I truly find it sad that we're not getting there.

You are right about that. None of the divides are narrowing. Unfortunately, cultural polarization has reached a point of rancor that manifests by making many of us feel that those with whom we disagree are malevolent.

Sorry, Gracie, but no one I know makes "sissy" jokes. It may be a West Coast thing, but it's just not done. Freedom of speech allows you to say almost anything you please -- just don't yell "fire" in a theater. Just because you have the freedom to say whatever you please, doesn't mean you should. Over time, most of us have learned to not use racially-derogatory words because they're wrong and hurtful. We've learned to not make jokes about physical or mental disabilities. Sissy, effeminate, etc. are words frequently used today to disparage gay men (safer than using the F word). To accept it as socially acceptable in some circles is not something I can do. Sorry, just goes against my grain and everything I believe in.

I have never disparaged gay men with the word "sissy". I sure have heard it plenty of times with half a smile to me when I would hold back doing a lot of things because I was and am a big sissy. I am not generally a risk taker. I am a tiny bit of a coward and another word for that is sissy. I am not the one who says "Here. Hold my beer". I am a sissy. This is a perfect example of political correctness ****ing me off.

what does sissy mean - Bing

Gracie aka a sissy. BUT the pen is mightier than the sword and computer keys are pretty good too.

Someone with a man bun reminds me of one word: Lemming

Went through the long hair phase back in the late 60's, early 70's; shaved it as smooth as a baby's butt about 18 years ago.

I have a flowing head of hair that many would love to have. I don't understand why. I shave my head about every two weeks. It feels great and it certainly is more of a winner now that our home is in Florida. I would never voice my opinion on someone's hairstyle as my opinion doesn't count for them. If they put a sentence into question form about their man bun I would give it a very, extremely low mark in a humorous way.

On the other hand if one of my children before they move out of the house tried such a thing it wouldn't stand for a minute, no way Jose. One of them came home with Dreadlocks and I never had to say a word, they were gone the next day. The boys would always try my patience with the Baseball Cap Sideways or Backwards or the Sagging Pants. We welcomed their friends to our home but pants up, hat straight and no cursing in our presence until they started working for me and heard what went on there, it wasn't a Florist. The language was bad. I remember the look on the youngest ones face when he heard me go off on a person who did something dumb.

I wanted to be a Police Officer in the worst way and always had my hair short. I never had that dream come true. Had to go to work early for some good reasons.

I never had long hair or will I have a bun , but if it makes you feel good , go for it. should you care what anyone thinks about your hair.....
