Morphology

sissy = sister (opaque) = sister + y

The sexual/BDSM role is a specialized, culture-specific extension of the term and is not derivable by standard morphological reasoning from 'sister' + '-y' for an average learner.

Etymology

Sissy in sexual or BDSM contexts keeps the link to sis 'sister' and 'girl-like', but here some men use the word for a chosen sexual role where they wear feminine clothes or act submissive. So this sense is about a person taking a feminized, often sexual, role by choice.
