See MOTHER. apron; apron strings. Apron, a reference to a woman, from the name of the garment that stereotypically links women with kitchen chores. The term was used in the slang sense mostly early in the twentieth century, but the reference is still heard. A young man “tied to his mother’s apron strings” is said to be dominated by her, or to be a sissy. Similarly, a man may be tied to his wife’s apron strings and thus be regarded as servile to her, a culturally unacceptable role for a man.
