1. A mama's boy is a guy (usually no younger than a teenager) who constantly compares his female lover to his mother. Although he may have no harmful intentions, this behavior usually causes his lover to feel as though she's not near as good as his mother and will never be enough for him. 2. A mama's boy is a man who expects a (stereotypical) “mother-like figure” out of his female lover. In other words, he expects her to clean, cook, wash dishes/laundry, etc. These men are usually sexist/misogynistic, hard to please and not worth wasting time over. 3. A mama's boy is a guy (of any age) who holds a deep love and respect for his mother and has been positively influenced by her. He's very close to her and often talks about her when he's not with her. He cries when she cries, and laughs when she laughs. She's his best friend. Because of this, he generally knows how to respect women, in general. Though not all, many gay guys are mama's boys (although it has nothing to do with sexuality), and many southern boys are, as well. They're usually very tender hearted and sweet.
