You're only 'pussy whipped' if no longer stand up for yourself or do things that you want to do because you're afraid that your girlfriend won't be happy about it. For instance, if you want to hang out with the fellas Friday night but when you tell your girlfriend she gets pissed off so you change your plans, you are most definitely pussy whipped and deserve to incur the wrath of your friends for not being a man any longer. If you like hanging out with your girlfriend, plan on doing something with her at night then tell your buddies that you have plans when they approach you about hanging out and drinking for which they call you pussy whipped, they're just jealous. There is a difference between enjoying your girlfriend's company and being pussy whipped, but yes, I have known quite a few miserable, pussy whipped guys and I have to tell you that the condition exists. It's pathetic too.
