Locked. No further comments permitted.Do you like being called "babe"?

I don't know why it is exactly, but once I read it in a PM, I cringe.

I have found that people I meet on here, I usually have a more enjoyable encounter when they didn't use the word "babe"

This is usually a term of endearment from people that already have at least a somewhat close relationship with each other, not between people that don't even know each other yet.

Maybe because it is so disingenuous? Maybe it screams what the person using it actually think of the person they are saying it to?

Does this bother other people?

Not at all.

It's just a wall in the mind.

SO hates terms of endearment like Babe.

For many calling all their women Babe prevents mistakes.

Most new encounters I do not know if it is the person or not. Why get too personal.

I am fine with it better than alternatives, though I always do sign off with "Thank You, Galen" when asking for information.

亲 (QĪN)

“亲”was originally created as a shortened form of “亲爱的,” but has since then taken on a life of its own.

“亲”is the most popular term of endearment across Chinese social media. Its closest approximation in English slang words is “babe.”

If a Chinese lady texts you 亲 you are a babe in her mind.

I don't care for it because I know everyone that she talks to (that night) is "babe". There's zero affection to it, just a word. Just like someone can call you sir or ma'am and still think you're a piece of shit.

When I pm, whether it's the first time or 10th, I always introduce myself with my first name followed by my handle. That way she at least has some idea of who's contacting her and she can check out my profile etc. or maybe she'll remember my name or handle.
I do the same thing when I text her. That way she at least knows my name when I she opens the door. If she calls me babe afterwards, I don't have a problem with it, but I'd like her to at least call me by my name when we first meet.

Lou calls everyone "sexy".

I would not mind if Lou called me sexy while he undressed me with his eyes.

I just Lou would wash the pegging chair after he was done.
