Being afraid of dangerous things is being a sissy. That's what the
word means.


I know what the word means .. I wonder if you really do...

If you don't think it means what I just said it does, then state your
meaning.

(Collins online dictionary)
sissy, cissy [ˈsɪsɪ]
n pl -sies
an effeminate, weak, or cowardly boy or man

Being afraid of dangerous things is commonly known as "being sensible".

Not being afraid of dangerous things is commonly known as "being
stupid", or "being suicidal", depending on just how dangerous they are.


COWARDLY. From your own paste.

Coward: One who shows ignoble fear in the face of danger or pain.
