HelpRe: Pansy
in reply to a message by queenv
From Merriam Webster dictionary:
"Definition of PANSY
1
a garden plant (Viola wittrockiana) derived chiefly from the hybridization of the European Johnny-jump-up (Viola tricolor) with other wild violets
2
a) usually disparaging : a weak or effeminate man or boy
b) usually disparaging : a male homosexual"
And from Urban dictionary:
"A sissy, fag, fairy, or one that is generally unmanly."
So yeah, Pansy is wimpy since that's it's meaning.
It's too bad, since I like the flowers and it would make a nice name.
I also love Poppy and maybe since I've met a few don't find it a bad name (they were all British). And there's an American actress Poppy Montgomery whom I love.
