candy-ass
Gutless, timid person
Candy-ass is vulgar slang for a timid, weak, or cowardly person—someone who can't handle difficulty or discomfort: Don't be such a candy-ass.
As an adjective, it describes something pathetically soft or inadequate: That was a candy-ass response to the criticism.
The term implies excessive softness, like candy rather than something tough.
