sorry, Alan I do not understand this one yet?

““pussy”” and also the whole sentence,could you try some other explnation.
I’ll apreciate it… thaksss

Sorry there’s a gremlin at work here - I’ve tried to send a correction and explanation but it won’t accept it. There are two expressions needed here: There’s no virtue in me + gerund and the verb is pussyfooting, which means being very sensitive and delicate.
