Origin of the word Pussy

[FemmeFatale]

The word "pussy" is probably the most used name for female genitalia it seems, but where did that originate from?

Pussy cats don't like being wet, my pussy does

Pussy cats are all hairy, mines not haha

I thought it's an interesting topic, any ideas?

Online Etymology Dictionary

If you look at the link you'll see the word comes up ion the 1800s, back when women didn't used to shave their pussies, so the coin probably termed from it being like a cat, which is from French slang for it. According to the site and speculation.
Those are my best ideas.
