When someone says that "You're a bunch of pussies", it has no connection to any female body part or kittens. It's the short form of "pusillanimous".
pusillanimous
/pyoo͞″sə-lăn′ə-məs/
Lacking strength and firmness of mind; wanting in courage and fortitude; being of weak courage; faint-hearted; mean-spirited; cowardly.
So stop being one.
