The irony is that the people who think its "wimpy" are afraid of being called wimpy themselves, as if they can't take a joke. It takes courage to step and say, "This is unacceptable" and set boundaries for behaviour.
Like AVC said, some more examples would be nice. You might consider reading some books on communication in general such as How to Win Friends and Influence People, Crucial Conversations and Difficult Conversations, etc.
