That 'daddy' thing in sex will always freak me out. If a woman called me daddy during sex that would be the end of it

[–] tomenzgg@midwest.social 6 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (1 children)

I used to be in the same camp (and it's still not for me) but it started to make more sense to me when I realized it's kind of been a thing we've been doing for a while.

There's the well known Papi, in Spanish, but, even as far back as the 1930s in The Grapes of Wrath, you have Pa Joad refer to Ma Joad as "Ma". Even in The Year without a Santa Clause (for a more modern but still older reference), Santa refers to Mrs. Clause as "Ma".

The idea of using these titles for anyone other than my own parents was not something that's intuitive to me, at all, but clearly it's a thing humans have been doing for (at least) a century. Not all those examples are in sexual contexts but I imagine that a nickname you have for your partner isn't not going to end up continuing into the bedroom, at least not for everyone.

In that context, it started to make more sense to my brain.

Hey thanks for the history lesson. That makes sense, and if Freud was right, it is in fact a primal impulse. But I don't think Feud was right. To the best of my knowledge, saying my parent's name or title as a sex thing is definitely not my cup of tea

[–] tomenzgg@midwest.social 1 points 15 hours ago

Oh, I didn't mean it was a primal instinct; just that it seems to be a common cultural one.

I definitely feel you, though; it's very much not mine, either.

[–] lets_get_off_lemmy@reddthat.com 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I had a short-term ex say that and it really turned me off every time. If the relationship went on longer, I would've eventually said something. It really weirded me out, especially knowing that her dad died of cancer a year prior. It's like, what the hell is going on in your head? Get that checked out.

[–] fushuan@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 day ago

It's some sort of power play, parents are authority figures and it's a very popularized term, so maybe saying daddy instead of boss or Mr officer feels easier, as an introduction to sub/dom play.

The people that actually have daddy issues are different though.

same. is it mostly an American thing? cause none of my friends would ever think to call their boyfriends "daddy"

[–] Blooper@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 23 hours ago

No we say "papa"

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 35 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Yeah, use good boy like a normal person!

Comment + username makes me picture you as Mr Peanutbutter

[–] Soup@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Honestly as much as that’s still weird it’s a whole lot better than the incest thing.

[–] Luffy879@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The daddy thing as in the pornos is completely unrealistic too

As someone who actually has a daddy kink, I've never seen anyone who has a one night stand and instantly sees their partner as their daddy

I mean, I'm an extreme case, but I don't think you can just see someone as your daddy without bonding with him first. Like, I've spend like a year or 2 with him and gone through a lot of stuff until I even started thinking of calling him daddy, but now its pretty normal for us, after like 4 years, and im happily calling him Papi or Papa, and he's calling me „kleine” or Mika, but thats really an edgecase

Only other scene where I've seen someone become someone's daddy instantly was with abdl rp stuff, but that's non sexual

[–] OldSageRick@lemmy.zip 24 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So thats what you have been doing instead of getting the one piece?

[–] Angelusz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Let's eat some pickles!

[–] Beardsley@lemmy.world 30 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I'm good with it as long as it doesn't leave the bedroom or turn towards something really wrong. Otherwise, I respect the kink.

[–] Naz@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 hours ago

"Daddy, could you pass the salt?"

My hand touches the salt shaker, so does her father's.

[–] Doll_Tow_Jet-ski@fedia.io 5 points 1 day ago

Ye I didn't want to kink shame anyone. I also respect the kink, but it would be a deal breaker for me. That and inflicting pain. I don't judge those who are into those things, but they're not for me.

[–] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, and dunno if it's just because I have two kids now. I assume it would've struck me as odd before, but I guess I didn't think of it back in the before times.

[–] Doll_Tow_Jet-ski@fedia.io 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ye now that I am a father of a girl, the thought itself disgusts me. I did find it weird before but now it blows my mind

[–] M137@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

I have no kids and have always found it disturbing and off-putting. It's not a common thing in my country and language though, but I was with an American girl several years ago who said it and my member deflated like someone pulled the plug. No thanks.

[–] MeaanBeaan@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It definitely weirds me out too and I at one point definitely had this opinion. But then I was with a woman once who I was very, very attracted to; Possibly more than anyone else I've been with. (Not that that's a bunch of people) She started calling me daddy repeatedly while we were getting into, and despite me being a little weirded out by it I, uh, didn't stop.

Horny is a hell of a thing.

[–] Doll_Tow_Jet-ski@fedia.io 1 points 14 hours ago

Horny is a hell of a thing.

Hahaha true that. My brain doesn't like it but the other organ is more tolerant

I don't sext because I can't jerk off and write a cohesive sentence at the same time.

[–] Forester@pawb.social 98 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] zxqwas@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I could type with one hand before I switched to dvorak.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's not the typing that's the issue. It's the lack of blood going to the brain.

[–] Kalcifer@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 hours ago

How to say you've got a big schlong without saying you've got a giant schlong /j

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

This used to be me. Eventually I figured out one handed with the unlabeled keys but it took years. Congrats on the happy tendons.

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Yeah, I hear it's amazing when the famous purple stuffed worm in flap-jaw space with the tuning fork does a raw blink on Harakiri Rock.

[–] Bosht@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I have no fucking idea what this means, so I will take offense and assume it's a movie quote. GOOD DAY!!

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

The one day I work from the office, and you all are going to make me literally LOL.

Seriously 🤣

Speech to text, my brother.

[–] Revan343@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

More of a bloodflow-to-the-brain issue

[–] MeThisGuy 3 points 1 day ago

I just txt to speech directly from my little head. But it never surprises me because I already know what he's thinking.

If this is happening, it’s usually because the other person wants to keep it going for too long, haha. I do not have time to edge you for 5 consecutive hours unless I’m multitasking.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 22 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I was the bottom person once. No clue why, or what possessed me to do that.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It's just playing along with a partner's fantasy. No effort and it makes them happy.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 3 points 1 day ago

Literally just did what they wanted me to, asking a lot of questions first 🤷‍♂️

At least I crossed that off my bucket list.

[–] slampisko@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago

Nothing wrong with being the bottom
