Am I the only one who dislikes being called "baby"? I mean, I'm just not that type of girl who likes stuff like that. It's weird. Hahahaa, ok awkward rant done.

For me, it will depend on who is calling me the cutesy names. From a guy I like? Sure. A complete stranger? No thanks.

Whenever I call my daughter Radiance "Baby", she knows that I am expressing my great love for her. She grew up not having a father. So, after I adopted her, I let her know that I love her just as if she had been born my baby daughter. By the way, I don't suppose you are familiar with the theme song from the old "Sonny & Cher" TV show. |

That's because in American society, the name implies inequality in a relationship. When the name is used in a parent-child relationship (as it is used in Hispanic families), the name is a term of endearment, with the parent expressing an eternal bond with the child. In a dating relationship, the name suggests that the woman is somehow still a child needing the man's protection, not the man's equal. However, people with a Hispanic background do not think the same way. My Latina late-wife called me the Spanish version of "baby" as a way of expressing her devotion to me. |

lol I prefer my new pet names for my ex but, I use to be a sweetie or cutie guy.
I guess I use sweetie in many situations. |

Im much more concerned with tone and context than the name. Some can use the word 'woman' in a derogatory tone and context and some can use it as a compliment or badge of respect
same thing with names like 'baby, sweety, honey',,,etc,,, |

I just think it's really cheesy coming from someone I don't know. |

I really could care less how the word is used, I just don't like it. Period! Ahhhh!!! It makes me feel like..you know... not myself. I think I have too much self respect for myself.

I think I have too much self respect for myself. its not as much about respect as it is preference,,,some prefer to stick to their given name and others dont have a particular preference with the exception of being intentionally insulted |

And to think....most women hate being called biatch, whore, slut....unless they do porn. Then it's totally accepted.
