On the off chance youâre somehow unaware, limp wristedness is an extremely common negative stereotype of gay men.
Is âlimp-wrist cowardâ a slur? Seems more like an insult of someoneâs habits.

I can only say I was genuinely unaware of that. Iâm now curious as to the chances someone might âinventâ such a phrase aimed at political keyboard warriors, not knowing its homophobic nature.

Iâm not sure how people donât know about it. Itâs a pretty widely used one thatâs been around for a very long time. At least since '98 when this queer punk band named themselves limp wrist. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limp_Wrist

What habits?

Complaining about politics online instead of taking action.
