Pansies

Thanks for the hugs and cheering up yesterday. I’m pretty much over my funk. I think…

I decided that taking photos of flowers would cheer me right up!

It did!

Now on to the important discussion! Why in the world do you think that the word pansy became something bad to call a person? Why is being a pansy considered being wimpy or gay? I’d think being a pansy should mean being bright, cheerful, perky! Ah, well, I’ll never fully understand the English language. Do you have other words that you can’t figure out how they became twisted to their slang meaning?
