Yes or no?

Do you think there is a difference in being called one of those names and calling your man daddy?

I have no s/o so it's not applicable to me, i'm just curious.
 
I wouldn't mind if my SO did, but I find it's random men I don't even know, and casual acquaintances who are trying to call me that and it gets on my nerves. :ohwell:

I have only been called ma or mami by random men, I always thought it was kinda strange, unwanted at least. i Have had male friends call me baby, but while that is annoying i preferred it to a couple other things :/ Of course i call a female friend of mine baby all the time.

Yeah by my CHILDREN

i feel weird with men calling me ma, my first was always i'm not your mother. not sure if it would be different with someone i was with.

Ma, Mama, Mami=my future children and my future children ONLY

Baby= Depends on the guy. I don't know what it is but some guys make it sound romantic, others it sounds sleazy. My father sometimes calls me that so it's weird for anyone else to. I despise when random strangers call me "baby."
 
I liked when my ex called me baby.

Ma/mama/mami I would not like to be called that by an SO. I do say it to other females tho and don't mind when they say it to me. Its used similar to "chile", chica, "gurl" etc.
 
I didnt birth him :lachen: j/k but he can call me baby but anything else gets the :perplexed

eta: I dont mind if women call me the others though :look: like if my own mama said: "mama go get me the broom" or a girlfriend said "mami where the noodles at?!" :lachen:
 
Lol. I think the mama, mami, ma thing is a US thing. Guys never call women that over here.

My BF calls me 'baby' sometimes. *shrugs* I don't mind it. I call him 'babe' sometimes too.
 
My SO calls me ma, all the time...that and baby. I have no problem with it. But then again I've always loved terms of endearment.

Honestly it doesnt bother me when people strange or familiar do it. That's how some folks genuinely communicate and if it's harmless and in their minds nothing negative, I'm ok with it.
 
One guy I dated called me lil' momma. :look: Please don't judge me, but I really liked when he called me that.

My ex called me Babe and I called him Bae.
 
I can't stand "bae" It just irks me for some reason. How hard it it to add a bloody "b" sound to the end of it? ARGH. *pet peeve, sorry*

I...eh, not too fond of it. Baby is alright. Ma/Mami reminds me too much of the guys on the street trying to pick girls up. And some people sound absolutely ridic saying "Mami" and not being of the culture where people usually say it just to sound cool. :lachen:
 
Ma, mama, mami...absolutely not! Those are recent labels that came along with hip hop culture and I want nothing to do with it.

Baby, yeah sure, that is a traditional label that has been around forever, and if my guy decides to call me that then it's fine.

Yeah WTF is "Bae"??? It sounds horrible. I dont mind being called babe or baby. One thing I noticed is that couples with children call their partners, mom or dad because thats what they refer to them as when talkin to their kids. So it sorta becomes an habit. Therefore, i dont find it offensive if its a partner i have children for.

:rofl: i was thinking people got so lazy they don't want to say the extra b. my older brother and his gf call each other bae sometimes.

hmm i should have put a poll, but the consensus seems to be no, i'm actually kinda surprised.
