It seems that for some folks the problem is not that the person in the OP used "sissy" as an epithet, but that he was mistaken about it. They ain't no stinkin' sissies! {spits tobakker} They actually share his contempt for those pathetic weirdos and are offended to be called one. It's like when "they" ignorantly associate crossdressing with homosexuality. Imagine being accused of something so abominable! The solution then is to approach the fellow and explain that you're really just a regular guy who likes to dress up as a girl sometimes. {hums the lumberjack song} But, underneath the skirt, you're all man. {scratches the boys} Maybe then you could get together on the weekend, drink a couple of six-packs, go downtown and slap some real sissies around. LOL

From where I stand, I don't see a whole lot of difference between the sissyphobe in the OP, the hypocritical sissyphobes here that whine for tolerance and understanding for themselves, and the homophobes that felt a need to gay bait the sissyphobe in the OP. But please don't overestimate the amount of offence I take personally since whatever offence I do take is tempered by already low expectations.
