...And I heard "bloody little twit" used in the same way whilst we were in the UK.

As a child here in Lancashire UK (and elsewhere I'm sure), the term  "Sissy"
was the standard word for someone, especially a child or young  person, who
was soft, or effeminate or who pursued "un-manly"  activities.  The lad in our
class at school who went for ballet lessons was  the archetypal sissy and
suffered greatly for his art!

Cheers,
