@alice In the series "The Prick", the main character consistently calls his wife "Mammy" as a term of "endearment".
It is sooo creepy and cringy.

@alice@lgbtqia.space The challenge for me with this poll is it's less about the terms, and more about who says it. A stranger using any of these is creepsville, but someone I'm in a happy relationship would probably be able to take his pick.

@alice gotta say “doll” is a weird one for me. If a gay guy calls me a doll, it makes me blush and smile, a straight guy calls me a doll and I want to introduce him to my baseball bat. It’s weird how different a reaction this can produce
@JoscelynTransient @alice
I use Dolls for cool girls and intimates

@alice
Momma mommy ive blocked people for here. It's in a pinned post that I hate it.
Empress, goddess, Queen is a little more tricky for me as I use Empress as a title when being a dominant. The other two are nope, and Empress from someone not actively submitting would also go badly
Dear is particularly infantilizing to me as my mum uses it a lot for my brother and I so from anyone else it's going to be an issue. -

oh wow I don't want a guy to call me any of those

@alice Bro / Sir / Man / Dude / Guy / Mister
Like, I'd kill for a man to call me any of the things you listed.
@floralia @alice the "Sir" one gets me. It always feels like acknowledging the gender dysphoria and then deliberately rubbing it in.
Where I live "dude" is all but gender-neutral at this point... and "bro" is more identifying of the person saying it than who it's said to. It's a very specific type, and usually too oblivious to mean anything by it.

I miss the option "I'm a man and want to know if I've been an arse the whole time" -

'love' is definitely a British thing men say a lot. Whether as a greeting like 'alright love' or to smooth a directive like 'sign there love' or as an outright prick move like 'cheer up love!'
I hate hate hate it. I always call them love back but with a subtle sneer.

@alice Fucking goddess. It got on my nerves to the point where calling me 'goddess' was an insta-block on grindr and tinder for a while.

@alice I wouldn't know, I don't read femme still, or being fat turns people off, or something.

@taurus never been called that, but I think I'd rank it towards the bottom of my personal list, along with other sexual slurs.

@alice enby here so poll maybe not meant for me but while most of those strike me as various levels of cringeworthy, if I hear *anyone* calling *anyone else* "sweetheart" I get downright angry about it. I think I've been called that once and it was an instant block from me.
