Lately I have been relating to sissy annie as a prissy pansy rather than just a sissy! "Sissy" is just too generic and has lost it's hard edge meaning and correlation. I love when someone calls her a pansy, or even better, a prissy pansy.
Prissy means "Prim and Proper". A dainty girl. Very much lady like.
A "Pandy Core" - Someone who is ridiculously scared of something, particularly a guy who acts like a little girl when frightened also known as a hardcore pansy.
There are just times when one sees a certain photo and you label it as "PANSY". It's obvious! "PANSY" is a term used to mean a male regarded as gay, effeminate ,or simply a weakling. As an adjective,it applies to things,such as clothes (skirts,dresses, etc),associated with such a person.
The insult "pansy" actually comes from the French "pensée", which is the past tense of "to think", but is also a feminine reflexive. This term came about in the mid-fifteenth century, and essentially, it was used pejoratively to describe a man who thinks too much (like a woman is the intimation). Thinking men were not brawny, active, robust men, therefore they were thought to be slightly effeminate. It wasn't until 1929 that the term "pansy" came to mean sissy boi.
When annie twins/matches her dress with her dolly It sends a very definite message of being extremely childish, innocent, vulnerable and helpless! Requiring adults to care for her in mist every way. It can also be an infantile and babyish look! The pink bows on this dress also reinforce what a "pansy" she is. Pretty bows and ribbons also add to the Pansy core image. See her cute pink hair bow.
