I agree and I don't want to start a fight, but Pussy is a strange insult.
Pussy = coward. And that is what they are - cowards hiding behind masks.
They are cowards. And calling them that carries more weight to be honest.
Calling someone a pussy is comparing them to folks genitals. And if you've ever seen someone give birth, you know pussies are far braver than dicks.
I always thought it came from pussy(cat), like scaredy-cat
Also, fun fact! The word "puss" for cat probably comes from "pspsps"
