What's in a nickname?

[+ Gar1eth]

I was doing lat pulldowns at the gym one day, and the personal trainer's Manager walked by and said "I didn't know Batman was training here."

I lost it.

 

My housemate came by one day. He's 5'1" and 120#. Same Manager said, "and here's Robin".

 

I guess he was taking about you being Batman and not your trainer? Are you tall?

One of my regulars calls me "boy". And I really like it, I don't know why. It's funny, though, because I tower over him and am older than him (we're 5 years apart).

Another escort called me babe and I really liked that, too.

 

My ex and I never had terms of endearment, not in the usual sense of that they replace the usage of each other's names. You know like when couples stop using each other's names completely and only address each other as hon or honey (or something like that)?

We never had that, but I would sometimes call him " my sweet little whore fucker" or "Honolulu". Don't ask me why, it just gave me the giggles.

Maybe I'm not fond of them because I don't think my parents used them very often. I mean I guess it's possible they did, and I just tuned them out over the years. Maybe if I ever find my special guy, I won't mind a nickname. But the chances of that ever happening are slightly less likely than that of Halley's Comet hitting the earth on its next pass in 2061.

In general I absolutely hate it if anyone calls me a nickname. My parents never did and if friends would try it I would nip that in the bud real quick. Same with boyfriends, I don't even like hearing other couples refer to each other by nicknames.

I know I don't know you, but as long as you have interactions outside this hobby world, there is always a chance. Odds are in direct proportion to amount of time spent in real world social activities.

 

And trust me, you will probably like it. It's nice to be called Babe by someone you have feelings for.

I don't have a lot. I'm kind of a hermit. Social activities don't go well for me.

I have a very occasional FWB. So occasional we haven't benefitted in 10 months. He calls me 'Babe'. I like him-hate being called 'Babe', but I've never known how to tell him.

I think it's great when men use terms of endearment with each other, even when they've only just met. After all, you're going to be engaging in some pretty intimate activities. At first contact, I like them to use my name - nothing else.

 

Farther along, I like almost anything, I can't think of one I don't like, although "Sweetie" doesn't have the erotic edge that others do. I do like to call younger men "Boy" or "Muscleboy, " so it follows that they call me "Daddy." I find "Lover" very intimate and very erotic. I can almost feel my hormone levels rise whenever somebody calls me "Lover." Young Latin men tend to call me "Boss" which I really enjoy. I like "handsome," "sexy," "stud," etc. I like to call men "Darlin'," or "Goodlookin" or "Handsome." If I were bottoming, I think "Muscleboy" would be great, although calling a 63 yo "Boy" involves a serious suspension of disbelief. I also like "Baby," but it is a bit generic. Yes, "Babe" is really nice.

 

When I write a man a note, I often use "Darling man" as the salutation. It's one of the great privileges of being gay that we get to use these wonderful expressions with each other.

I'm not really known for witty or effusive writing. So I think I'll be honoring this privilege more in the breach....

I love being called "Daddy" during liaisons. I don't mind being called "Big Guy" and often am by others.

I already have nickname which most of my friends and coworkers address me by, I think affectionately.

 

Some very convincing tops have called me "bitch", "cunt", or "fuckhole" and made it work because they owned it ("my fuckhole").

 

Thanks Nvr2Thick for opening the door on this subject. I thoroughly enjoy some "dirty talk" during a session. As a top, using these words really gets my juices flowing. (I know, let the psycho analysis began) But I am always hesitant to go down that road with a companion I don't know really really well. Honestly I have only used this vocabulary with a few guys that I have been in relationships with. They all seemed to enjoy the talk during the time and knew I didn't refer to them in that way except during our intimate time together.

 

Do you use "bitch" "cunt" "fuckhole" or other questionable terms during man-on-man sex?

Would it help if it were spelled "Boi"?

 

In my own case, I feel like I'm a precocious mid teen stuck in an older man's body. (Although marginally less naive

than I was when I really was a mid-teen). So, the amount of effort to suspend disbelief in my case might be less

than yours

If I were to do that I would consider that to be delusional on my part. I'm so glad you can still do it!!

I wouldn't share it with everybody, but, yes, that's about how I see myself too. The fact that I'm stuck in this 63-year old body is some sort of mistake. But there it is.

 

I was thinking about that word "boi" just recently and how charming it is. I don't like most of the liberties we take with the language, but whoever thought of "boi" did good.

I like first names the best. I'm not a fan of being referred to as "Daddy" by escorts, but I do like when younger guys call me "Sir" or "Boss".
