WIMP
Hypothetical dark constituent
A wimp is a weak, timid, or ineffectual person—someone who lacks courage or physical strength: Don't be such a wimp; just ask her out.
The word is mildly contemptuous, often used in teasing.
To wimp out is to back down from something out of fear or hesitation: He wimped out of the bungee jump at the last second.
