When someone you don't know or barely know assigns you a pet name or endearment, does get under your skin? I'm not talking about when an elderly person refers to you as Dear...probably because they've forgotten your name. I'm not talking about the lady at the register or DMV who calls everyone Sugar...probably to avoid using the word Ma'am. To me Baby, Sugar, Sweetheart and Darling, and the like, are endearments reserved for family, dearest friends and intimate partners. I guess to me their use is more of a right to be earned. What say you? Ok, sugar. I spent 7 years active duty in the military. Last names were their names and what would make you think last names is disrespectful? You have no pride in your family name? Not necessarily. The only thing that gets my goat about names is when someone younger than me tries to call me 'son'. There was only one person that ever had the right to call me son and he's dead. I like to think that I respect my elders.

i only use baby when a woman is particularly sexy and or voluptuous and usually they don't seem to mind as they get that a lot...sometimes i use it to be an asshat, or facetious or just to push someone's button....i get it but so what...i reserve the right to be a butthead occasionally to relieve the monotony if nothing else..

Reminds me of the time I was yelled at by a female acquaintance who called out my FULL name, and quite loudly. I was reminded of the line in a commercial, where a neighbor yells out "Dead man walking!!" as he sees his neighbor trudging toward doom in the mailbox. Boy was she mad!!

hummm yes I have to agree wt you. tho I mite add that a man using those terms, may suggest a place he would like to hold in ur life. myself ask if such terms are acceptable. and will have no problem offering a heart felt apologie after being corrected. np
