Any adult male who insists on calling his mother “mommy” is quite likely a mama’s boy. He is easily identified by the euphoric look on his face at the mere mention of her.

When a guy asks for his mama’s approval before asking a gal out on a date, he is a mama’s boy. Obviously he relies on mama to make his decisions for him. He may look like an adult but he surely does nothing like one.
