I hear the word sissy used somewhat regularly here and I have to admit that when I look in the mirror fully dressed like today,I'm a total a sissy. Does anyone else feel that way or is it just me?

I feel that way. It seems that the term "sissy" itself is very hot-button for some. I think it describes the way I feel when dressed.
I've been to some sissy websites and I just don't fit in with those groups. Don't classify yourself as a sissy until you know what it's all about now days.

I never feel that way. For me, "sissy" is a derogatory term.
I've never felt like a sissy in my life, regardless of how I'm dressed.

I really really hate the word "sissy"...it conjures up a lot of bad memories while growing up and being picked on for my feminine spirit

I was only ever once referred to as feminine and I actually relish that statement, I feel more sissy than masculine. I really like feeling like a sissy! I'm dressed totally like a women and it feels good so why am I not totally sissy?
I absolutely abhor the term. As previously mentioned, it is a derogatory term meaning weak and ineffectual, weak willed, unwilling to defend ones self, unwilling to get dirty or make a physical effort. Not only is it offensive to males, it is also offensive to females as it epitomizes the absolute worst stereotypes assigned to the female gender.
I would never aspire to be a sissy as a man, or as a woman. For me, part of my dressing is an expression of what I see as ideal in women. Those ideals do not jive with being a sissy.
Maybe I'm confusing sissy with feminine, but I like thinking of myself as a sissy, maybe it's another way of saying feminine.
I think that the word "sissy" is derogatory. I cannot think of any situation where it would be a good word to use.

Today I'm totally dressed as a women, I feel great and anything better masculine. So what am I today?
The term sissy is loaded with so many negative connotations and for many brings up and bad and painful memories and emotions. Imho and no offence intended to anyone who identifies with the modern interpretation of the term as used in the porn industry, I don't think it helps with the general populations perception of mtf crossdressers.

There's a sissy lifestyle or roleplay that Ressie may he referring to. I'm not into that. There's sissy style, a certain overly girly look characterized by frilly dresses with lots of ruffles and lace (as I see it, anyway. Others define it differently). I love this style, but still haven't bought that perfect Lolita-style dress I want. And then there are the [often bad] memories of childhood many have experienced.
We shouldn't call crossdressers sissies collectively, because some don't want to be called sissies, believing it to be derogatory or offensive. But the word shouldn't be banned just because some don't like it. Those who identify as sissy don't mind the tag. If I'm dressed sissy style, you can call me a sissy.
To me the word sissy conjures up images of guys dressed as maids being ordered around by a dominatrix, or have I just been looking at too many websites? I dress fully as a 'normal' woman but a bit of sissy dress up might be fun.....
A wonderful, expressive person?
Nicole,
Well stated, and since Josie asked for personal opinions as to if we felt like a sissy, I think we are responding appropriately. If Josie wants to be a sissy, then that's Josie choice. However, when Josie asked, it was not too clear that she had the same impression of the word as what is commonly understood.
If anyone Called me a sissy, regardless of how I am dressed at the time, I would knock them out.

I'm just a bloke that likes wearing clothes normally associated with females, fed up of the arguments about which label people should use.
My wife uses it in a derogatory manner but it bothers me not.
I dislike the term "Sissy" not because it might be used to describe me but because it is really demeaning to women. Another word with a bad connotation for women is "girly". I remember Gov Schwartzeneger of CA used to refer to "girly men". So, is being like a woman a bad thing? Are women still some sort of lesser beings compared to men? A lot of women I know are much stronger than men and lots of beefy men I have come across over the years turn out to be weak and cowardly characters that are all bluster and no substance.

Leanne you are so right. Acceptance doesn't require labeling, pigeonholing or defining.

I'm not a sissy in either mode and find it offensive.
It looks like you don't understand the term in construct of trangerism or roleplay/fetish world.
If you don't dress in ultra girly (Lolita) fetish outfits then I wouldn't call you a sissy and just a crossdresser.
Then again you may be an ineffectual weak man so maybe you are one in the dictionary sense of the word.
You ever heard of a Butch Queen ?
A masculine acting and are looking CD are drag queen instead of a feminine acting are sissy girly transgender.
TV's might be butch queens .
Ballroom and transgender pageant talk/urban talk.
Real talk= the truth=straight up=not beating around the bush=Being frank=not holding nothing back=hitting them with knowledge. See Reina knows how to get Flawless by beating that face! Beating the face is makeup application using stipple motion to look flawless.
If someone a cd looks like a brick,they look ruff and masculine.
If a CD looks fishy ,they look like a GG woman.
They thought i had real breast and cleavage instead of duct taoe and breast forms cause they don't know the T.
If they dont know the T,you are on stealth mode and havr not been figured out are discovered.
The T is short for time,you dont know what time it is ,its not refering to the clock but its about Awareness.
Some guys mary postop transsexual cause they dont know what time it is.they dont know the T about Miriam (there's something about Miriam).
Get it!?
