Are Americans bigger sissies than they were 20,30.. 50 years ago?

Question

ect.?

Answer 1

Why don't you tell those Americans who are serving over in Iraq and Afghanistan they are "sissies" and see how far you get?

:(

EDIT

For the record, I don't limit myself to just military personnel either. Heroism come in many forms.

How about people who work for humanitarian societies like Doctors Without Borders or Amnesty International or those who stand by their convictions and protest wars or stick up for the basic civil rights of others?  They're hardly sissies, either.

Way I see it the biggest "sissies" are those who call others sissies...and have no real basis on which to back their comments!

Answer 2

i would say so...seems today its a crime if you "hurt someones feelings"...

don imus...perfect example.~ i never listened to him but that whole fiasco reminded me of some whiney brat crying to teacher

Answer 3

Sissies? maybe thats not the right word.Moaners and whiners would be closer to home perhaps, as the americans just cant seem to get over the fact that the world does not owe them a living! They were moaning and whining 50 years ago and they havent stopped yet! - , we can only hope. .

Answer 4

Depends on what you mean by sissie.

Like all that political correctness nonsense...yeah they are sissies.

If you mean like how tough they are...then basically no different than any other country.

Answer 5

I don't think they are going to like that very much.

Answer 6

Most definitely. One word - manscaping

Answer 7

No.

Answer 8

not particularly, they just have more Christian fundamentalists and more black bigots who think the world owes them a living so it just seems like it.

Answer 9

No way. I would say we are more in touch with our feminine side though. But we are a far cry from "sissies". Would sissies race into war the way we have? I think not! Of course, that may not be a good thing either...hmmm..
