Pussy whipped - the full explanation

Ebaby has a lesson this week about the term 'whipped'. I don't really follow the lessons much but I wanted to see how they described this term and how they told you why it was used. These days, you will hear that term on some TV shows. American TV shows can't use the full term so they try to be cool and daring by using the word 'whipped' in the way that Ebaby describes it. But neither Ebaby or American TV can really use the full term, simply because it is a bit rude.  

Whipped, at least the way that Ebaby explained it, comes from the term 'pussy whipped'.  The term is a thing that guys say to each other when one of them seems to be emasculated by a woman. The woman could be a wife or a girlfriend, someone who the guy is in love with or is having a physical relationship with. If you don't know what the word 'pussy' means in this context, it is the slang word for a woman's vagina.

If you are going to use the term 'whipped' in the context that Ebaby suggests using it, you have to realize that a Western person will assume that you are really saying 'pussy whipped'.  Just so you know, pussy whipped isn't something that you say in normal or even casual conversation. It is only used when you are talking to a close friend, a man, someone who you know really well. You would never use this term with your parents or a boss or with someone you don't know really well. My suggestion would be to not use it at all. 

Slang has its place but when you are learning English you have to understand what you are saying before you use any slang at all. Pussy whipped or whipped isn't a term that you would want to get to know, trust me. If you are a guy, sure, give it a shot. If you're a girl, I would suggest just forgetting it completely.
