This is a fetish for younger women and while I used to feed into it, now I find it highly cringe and don’t know why I ever thought it was cute.
Lol, I call my boyfriend "Daddy" sometimes. It's no big deal. Why would it be cringe? It's not a LITERAL dad lol. And I don't think it's just younger people since I'm almost 40 lol. Don't pretend like you're better than me now just because YOU don't do it anymore.
Also he was mainly asking men, not women.
@Sweetsurprize yeah flaunting daddy issues at the age of 40 isn’t cute but do you.
@kylee2437 I don't have daddy issues. That's gross. How do you automatically assume I have daddy issues. I have a stable dad in my life. It's just a joke I say to my partner. Nothing strange about it. I even call him baby sometimes. It's just whatever is easy and flows out of the tongue easily honestly. But yes, I do me. and I am GLAD I have a happy dating life. And yes, I would respect him if all of a sudden, he told me he was bothered by it. People make a big deal out of the dumbest things in my opinion.
@Sweetsurprize calling your boyfriend daddy is weird
@ChefPapiChulo He doesn't think it's weird, and I do it as a joke. If he were to tell me he was bothered by it, I would find a different pet name. And no I do not have daddy issues. Maybe one day he'll be a father to my children and I find that thought very sweet.
@kylee2437 Lol no it's not insecurity. Like I said, I don't find it a big deal and thankfully neither does my partner. Why do you guys have to ATTACK me for my private life? 😞 Grow up please. I'm just stating what I think!
And no I don't do that during sex either, now THAT'S weird, but whatever, you guys will think whatever you want about me go ahead lol.
@Sweetsurprize you are the one that made your kink a big deal. No one would’ve known if you didn’t broadcast your sex life because you think my opinion is a big deal. It goes to show that you need to grow up and you are very immature for a 40 year old.
@kylee2437 Again, how am I making it a BIG DEAL? ! I'm not the one who POSTED this question. You're just looking for a fight lol. Which, clearly you'll lose to me if you so watch out lol. YOU'RE the one saying that what I am doing is wrong, which is clearly isn't and you're accusing me of having a in insestual fetish which I clearly don't! I would NEVER look at my partner and think of him like my dad, that's nasty. I'd appreciate if you didn't paint those types of thoughts or label me as doing that. Same goes for ANYONE who hates me just because I have a different opinion, way of life, etc!
@Sweetsurprize this my comment that you chose to comment on because you are insecure about my realization of this kink. It’s overrated and stupid. You need severe therapy for gaslighting me and making me seem like I’m the sensitive one for your reaction to my opinion.
@kylee2437 No, that's what you don't understand. I stated MY opinion on your answer. I don't need severe therapy for stating an opnion lol. Like I said, people make a big deal out of the dumbest things. But whatever, you seem to have it out for me for whatever stupid reason you have!
@Sweetsurprize you went out of your way to make my opinion about yourself. Yes you have projected you have tons of issues that you still haven’t figured out as a 40 year old woman.
@kylee2437 No, it's EASY to type things online just like you are right now. You're clearly displaying your BITCHY, immature behavior and telling me to get therapy. Where's my issues? ! Just because I call my boyfriend daddy? ! So what big deal? ! That's not really an "issue" if he doesn't mind it! I know I said some personal things but I thought you guys wouldn't take it so negatively which looks like you and some people clearly do! Very sad. Maybe you should take your OWN advice and go seek counseling and figure out why you feel the strong need to make yourself appear RIGHT over me, and you clearly are the one with some anger issues since you will not stop and see things from MY perspective.
@Sweetsurprize no one even asked for your irrelevant perspective. I answered the question based on how I feel. You made my opinion about yourself. Stop projecting your issues onto me.
@kylee2437 I have the right to state my opinion just like you have the right to state yours. I wasn't projecting my issues. There's NO problem with how I deal with my personal life. YOU allowed replies to your answers/opinions. I just made mine known. I was also trying to get people to open their closed minds which I don't even know if that worked. Obviously with you it didn't. But it still doesn't stray from the point I was trying to make! And it wasn't "irrelevant" as I was trying to DEFEND how I felt because it was opposite of what you were saying and thinking! ... But anyway..
@Sweetsurprize you have a right to state your opinion but you have no right to make me seem like the issue when my initial opinion had nothing to do with you. That is called gaslighting
@kylee2437 I was NOT gaslighting you. Nothing I did states that. I was declaring MY opinion and what my thoughts were, I was not hiding anything or belitting what you were saying. I was merely rather disagreeing with it passionately if you would.
@Sweetsurprize no you keep insinuating that my opinion on the kink is a personal attack on you personally and that IS gaslighting. You show immense amount of immaturity for someone that is 40.
@kylee2437 No, I don't think you understand what gaslighting means. It means that someone is doing something knowingly and purposely and yet outwardly denying that they are doing that very thing. Look it up.
"You show immense amount of immaturity for someone that is 40." Well what's YOUR excuse for not acting your age either. ANYONE can be mean whether they are 26 or 46! So shut up! You DESERVE being treated badly if you yourself can't muster up any amount of empathy for anyone but yourself or those you consider strangers online. HAVE fun being the bitch you are. Hopefully that takes you to places you like, but I highly doubt that. Not at least without hurting people's feelings! You just REFUSE to see things from my perspective and you continue to insult me about my age. Wait till you get to this age you disrespectful slut! And also keep thinking to yourself that your smart and more educated than me, go ahead even if it's not true! Hope you like going to hell because that is where you are going if you keep up with your shitty behavior you freak!
@sweetsuprize you are repeating yourself without realizing you can admit that you are wrong for making my opinion about you , but you are choosing to continue. Immature, and it reflects why this kink is cringe. Too many immature, insecure women associate themselves with this kink
@Sweetsurprize she's just into shaming other people's kink. It's typically for sexually repressed people and common in this world because so many people are sex-negative they like to virtue signal by showing how moral and superior they are by shaming others.
@kylee2437 ok I understand you've got some past trauma associated with it, that makes more sense why you are swinging to the other side of the spectrum on it. As for issues, as far as I know, no one on this planet is perfect and most people have issues be they big or small. I think yucking someone else's yum is unkind. People call each other babe, baby, mama, daddy, and other infantilizing/(I don't know what you call it, "parentizing") words. It doesn't mean the same thing to everyone. I used to call a partner of mine "mama" sometimes, but that was because she was like a mama to our dogs, it had nothing to do with sex. I would be similarly offended if someone who didn't know me at all INSISTED it was because I have mommy issues.
@zeitgeist057 my opinion wasn’t directed towards her, she took it upon herself to make it about her. A 40 year old woman should hold enough confidence with the kinks she digs into. A 40 year old holding not enough confidence is not my issue. That is someone that spent so many years not taking accountability to low self esteem
okay, I can see how "flaunting daddy issues at the age of 40" could be construed as directed at her, and as I illustrated with my "mama" example, you're equating "daddy" with "daddy issues" by indiscriminately submitting one for the other, and it's not accurate. The offense was/is telling someone else what they think.
You could have said "Calling your partner daddy at 40 isn't cute", which would be in alignment with what SS has said "I call my partner daddy, but I don't think of him as my literal dad, and I don't have an incest kink" (paraphrasing). It seems to me, from a third party, that she's upset you're putting something on her that she DOESN'T "dig into". It's not about her having a kink but no confidence in it. It's about being misunderstood, misrepresented, and shamed for it to boot. (at least IMHO.)
@zeitgeist057 the kink is literally a kink for daddy issues. The funniest thing about trendy kinks like this is people do it because it’s popular, not because they actually enjoy the meaning behind it. My opinion isn’t going to change because someone is offended that I’m speaking truthfully about this kink. Any man that truly respects you isn’t going to like this kink. And I’m all for dirty nasty bdsm , but the “daddy issue” kink hides a lot of degrading ridiculousness behind it and people only dabble into it because of the popularity
okay, as you said and is apparent you have some trauma clouding your perception. Here are a few links, some of which have information from people with psychology degrees who explain how the two are different things.

@zeitgeist057 honey the kink is literally surrounded around daddy issues. You aren’t going to change my mind just because you can’t accept what the actual kink is about. I know girls that dig into this and do have actual issues.
and a couple more, both from psychologists who discuss telltale signs and symptoms of "daddy issues"
(none of which are calling your partner "daddy")

I think it's funny more than anything, so I say it sometimes for that reason. But I also say a lot of other weird shit because I have a weird sense of humor.
I don't have daddy issues though, tbh I don't know if there's a real correlation there in the first place.
In the right context it is a huge turn on for me. My fiancée sometimes says it, but not that she’s into her daddy or reminded of her daddy. She uses it in bdsm or roleplay when I’m dominant and her hairy leather daddy
Naught! My daughter calls me daddy or dad. To all other women, I am Ted-dy Bear

Not really, but I'm glad they're calling me anything. 😎
My man doesn't seem to mind it but that's maybe because I made him a daddy so I've earned my way to calling him that.
It would not do anything for me, honestly. Frankly, my girlfriend has never called me that and if she did it would not impact me one way or the other.
Obviously, a male wants to be dominant and "Daddy" suggests that. However, it is not like I would focus on it.
Ironically, I have a fair amount of chest hair and my girlfriend has gotten into the habit of calling me "her furry little bear." Hardly macho, but it kind of does turn me on. Go figure.
So to each his own, but "Daddy" does not do much for me one way or the other.
I find it pretty gross. There are so many other things you can call him, why settle on a word that was exclusively used for men by their CHILDREN.
If you think it has nothing to do with infantilizing yourself and incestualizing your relationship…I have news for you. 😂
girl here. i find it creepy, especially since i call my actual father daddy, and would never call a boyfriend that.
Well some people do it, not because they associate it with their actual dad, that would be ew. Maybe it's associated with a strong person and someone you can rely on! It's a comfort thing. Nothing disgusting about it like people make it out to be!
I don’t like it because I like the rest of my fatherless generation have no clue what a daddy is
I thiught it was weird but it is growing on me bc my boyfriend being a dad would be so hot. He would be a literal dilf. Plus he calls me mommy sometimes so 😂 he really wants kids
"Dilf"😂🤣🤪👍
I don’t have baby issues. Never have so it’s a hard no for me. Plus my partner didn’t have daddy issues and isn’t into that sorta fetishes.
Calling someone or being called "Daddy" has NOTHING to do with daddy or baby issues.
@Guardian45 you have your opinion and I have mine. 🙂
My boyfriend says if I call him daddy during sex it will end the session
My boyfriend loves it and I actually do too.
I'm glad. It's a funny word lol. I do it to my man as a joke. I don't know why people make such a big deal and call it "cringe" ..! Do people really associate it with a literal dad? Lol. Okay. Too sensitive in my opinion!
@Sweetsurprize Agreed!!
@Sweetsurprize yep and I showed the user above you were arguing with multiple articles, psychologists agree that calling someone daddy has nothing to do with the psychological daddy issues. You won't find any support for that theory from psychologists. But she's in her 20s and knows everything, so people with doctorates can't tell her a thing. Whatever she decides in her head is gospel.
she got so mad no one agrees with her, no one educated anyway, no articles online, not even people on Quora, so she blocked me.
@zeitgeist057 trust me, it may not always be daddy issues, but in my experience it always is.
@kerrieK001 lucky boyfriend
@OctopusEars in my experience, having issues with ones' parents is pretty common, so it's not so helpful to try and correlate the two. But as I posted the top results of a search looking for what psychologists and researchers who study the connection (or rather lack therof), it's not something professionals believe is correlated.
It could be amusing in the bedroom. Would not appreciate it outside the home.
As a guy, I don’t want a female to call me daddy lol
I could tolerate it, if it's my wife who says it (provided that we have kids).
I don’t know for men, but I don’t like it and wouldn’t call my partner that.
It depends. Some people will refer to daddy as someone in charge of the house but some people do have cringe fetishes where they call certain family members daddy and are fantasizing about that. It just depends on how the word is used. I know in the South it’s more common to call someone daddy who is not your actual father so I could see how that would be fun. My wife and I aren’t comfortable calling me that.
It is better than calling them boy or baby. But it makes you think why call me daddy when we are about to have sex or made love?
No. I ain't her daddy or her pimp. That's just weird.
Depending if that man is a fine. Me personality don't mind but also don't care at the same time.
I could get into that as long as she didn't want to role play being 15 or younger.
Rockin the pig tails and all
I know some people like to call their partner that. For me it'd be a no, I'd prefer a different pet name to call them by.
How come?
@Guardian45 Because most of the time "Daddy" just comes off as sexualish to me.
No it might sound good to some in the bedroom but generally it's weird especially if she's the same age. I generally don't like it.
its disgusting to me cuz it makes me feel like im fucking my father.
I’ve never gotten a bad reaction but all these replies makes me think it’s a no for most😂
Some people call their partners "Mami" so hmm, I don't think it would be that bad.
Agreed
Indifferent. First time I got called that, I was hooking up with a girl off of tinder. Caught me off guard that time, but I don’t care anymore.
As a pet name sure, but if it's some kind of weird age play thing, then no.
Ewww gross 🤢
Most normal adults without issues would be put off by this
I can't stand women I'm intimate with calling me daddy. It makes me feel like I'm committing incest. It's a big turn off for me
I have kids so if my wife called me daddy, I’d be a little shocked and a bit disturbed.
I’ve found that some men like that and others don’t.
I've only been with one woman who liked to call me daddy. She only said it in a sexual context and in a playful way so I didn't mind it too much. It was a little creepy at first but I got over it.
I NEVER paid it any mind until one day an older girlfriend started calling me Daddy or Papi. I found it a turn-on and just some of the names we called each affectionately.
Never been called that. Which is nice because the french word for it has a really "father" meaning to it, which makes it uncomfortable.
Some guys like it and other guys are weird. Any woman who doesn't do it probably has a stick up her ass. Women worth being with won't have a problem with it though.
I don't. Instant turn off.
I call my boyfriend that as a joke. He calls himself that as a joke. Its a big joke lol, i can’t believe some people use it and get off of it.
The only one who could call me daddy is my child if I had one.
I find it very cringe but in some situations can be hot I guess...
I've never experienced that, but I like the idea.😜
I don’t seek it out, but if a woman is into it, I can get into it. It’s more to do with it being hot that she’s involving me in her fetish than the fetish itself, though.
No way. I had a girlfriend call me papi once. I told her to not do it again.
No, that would be humiliating.
I find it a bit creepy.
Depends on the context, like with most things.
Seeing as my girlfriend is older than me, it would weird me out
Only if you've been together a long time and have kids.
I dont
She can call me whatever she wants just not that
Cringe af and its usually women with daddy issues that like to call their parter daddy.
To other men, probably. To me, I don't really care about that.
Hints of incest to me. No.
How is it insest if it's not your actual dad you weirdo!
@Sweetsurprize Because you don't like my opinion, pervert.
no, i don't like it... i never understood it
what if she calls her dad daddy and her boyfriend daddy? wouldn't it get confusing?
I once met a man online who wanted me to call him Daddy and he called me Babygirl.
That's a fetish/kink
Well, he is a daddy, so why not lol 😝
Even if he wasn't a dad, it's not bad to do that! It's just a pet name. I feel like it means a strong, man of the house, in charge type of role! Like someone I can rely on. Nothing insestual about it! People are just too sensitive and strange!
No. It sounds horrible.
I don't. Sounds disgusting..
I like it. I find it very hot.
Ew, I find that extremely cringey.
That is too creepy for me. Hard pass.
Nope.
Hell NO!
