: "Mama's boy" nie musi być "sissy", choć słowniki czasem to utożsamiają.

Właśnie: nie wiemy, czy chodzi o tego, co od matki nie potrafi się wyprowadzić, czy o tego, który na drzewo boi sie wejść. Ja założylem to drugie. Niestety, Pytający milczy...

: it is well known that "mamisynek" means "mummy's boy". The question was about "mamisyństwo"?

: Nie mamy Kontekstu, więc trochę zgadujemy. To Twoje pasuje mi do faceta, któremu trudno się od matki wyprowadzić, albo szuka jej cech charakteru u swojej (przyszłej) żony - or something to that effect.

mammismo czy mammizmo
Kiedyś się na to natknąłem w amerykańskim reportażu z Włoch. Jest to, jak się domyślam, termin włoski odnoszący się do synków po 40. wciąż "przy mamusi". Może Ci się przyda.
