Ladies would you

[dmslush]

No, as long as he was saying it in jest. He adopted my daughter when she was 14, so it is funny to me when he calls me his 'baby mama'.. because, even though she is almost 20, she will forever be his baby girl.

 

[Buckalew11]

It'd make me mad. Not so mad I'd hurt him, lol, but mad. I dated a guy once whose dad called his mom "his old lady." I made it clear I thought that was totally disrespectful.

of course, he slept around on her and then she him and they divorced.

 

[Buckalew11]

I would be beyond pissed if he only referred to me as a baby mama. I also do not want to be called the 'old lady.'

I see we think alike!

 

[happygirl]

Old lady and the ole ball and chain make me cringe when I hear people call there wives that.

 

[luvmy3]

I wouldn't be mad as his Grandmother would be for him using such poor grammar

 

[MrsJackSparrow4Life]

It is considered a derogatory term where I'm from so yes I would not be happy with my SO if he started using it.

 

[Andtototoo]

I would be livid. And shocked because if my dh ever referred to me like that or posted details about our sex life on a public message board it would mean that suddenly he had turned into trailer trash.

 

[punkin]

Exactly! I could even imagine DH saying something like this.....and he would crack himself up in the process.

If he ever tried to seriously say this , it would be me cracking up on the floor. It would sound so ridiculous coming out of his mouth.

This.

Besides, I though that to be a Baby Momma or Baby Daddy you had to be unmarried. Am I wrong?

DH had described me in the past as "the mother of my (his) children." I guess that's kind of sort of the same thing (without all the derogatory connotations.)

 

[disykat]

I would be mad, but mostly really disappointed that a man I respected enough to marry thought so little of me. The fact that he was adopting expressions that are way too young for him and trying to go "ganksta" would be very concerning as well.

 

[LuvLDM]

Do you mean if he said it once as a joke? That wouldn't bother me, especially since I don't think Dh has even heard the term "baby momma".

I think if a guy routinely refers to his significant other as baby momma, well that's just ick...

 

[MoonFaerie]

I've always wanted to start referring to dh as my lover, like the Will Ferrel/Rachel Dratch SNL skits. Sadly I've never been able to pull it off with a straight face.

 

[shortbun]

I had to mark other because it just wouldn't happen. My husband and I never disrespect each other in public....well, not at all. If I talk about him at all, it's only good. He's my hero, my support, my man.

The last several days have just brought home to me again and again how lucky I am. Sappy as it is, when my husband was working to breathe life into my cousin as we waited for the squad, I felt so good knowing he just fell right into what needed to be done. I feel safe with him. I trust him. I love him and I couldn't imagine intentionally disrespecting him. I just don't get it. I kissed a lot of frogs....but nestled right down with my prince. I think people who are willing to publicly talk about their partners are never going to have happiness because they are throwing their love away on purpose. I'm not talking about someone who is being abused asking for help...that is totally different. I would be heartbroken if the man I loved came here and discussed our private relationship.

 

[Pigeon]

I don't know as I'd be livid, but I'd probably vomit. But it would never happen.

 

[Poohforyou]

Yes, but then again I'm not having children with someone I'm not married to. Oh, and my DH isn't low class.

 

[Minnesota!]

Nah, I wouldn't be mad. People get mad at too many silly things these days.

No lol I would not be mad at all. We always throw around zings and jokes about each other. It's just our thing lol. Plus... I am his babies momma so technically it's correct lol. Why would I care? I've definitely heard men call their wives worse. No it wouldn't bother me and it definitely isn't worth starting a fight over. Just a silly nickname.

It would probably be the last thing I would get mad at him for. We call each other LOTS of names....all in jest. His fave for me (and he calls me it in public, in front of people..known and unknown)...is dirty pirate hooker. Makes me laugh every time

 

[wintershawl]

Not even close to how pissed off I'd be to find a "vent" about our private sex life on a Disney message board - complete with my disinterest in wearing VS undies.

Yes, that thread was way TMI!

 

[MariDisney]

I voted no. DH and I have been trying to get pregnant (via IVF, etc.) for 7 years. I'd be happy if he could call me BM!!

 

[JessicaR]

He'd get one chance then he'd be calling me Mrs. somebody else's wife when writing out the checks

In all seriousness I can't imagine it would even come out of his mouth. I suppose if I were to tell him about these threads he'd do it for a laugh but that is as far as it would go.

You answered perfectly for me too. Not happening!

Now THAT is hilarious!!

As for the question - not enought to lose sleep over and I cannot ever see it happening but if it did he'd get a questioning look for sure. More because I'd wonder when he regressed to being 18.

As for the thread this was based on - I was being highly entertained and it poofed. Missed the last 6 pages or so - now I'll never know.

I am the quintessential wench sometimes and sometimes I am the archetype wench. I even have an archetypal wench costume - add this and it's a bar maid, add that and it's a pirate hooker, add the other and it's a druid or a halfling warrior etc.

Yep, I know where you're coming from on that one.

Of course, there's nothing like being told "To the winch, wench!" When we're in the woods and have to haul ourselves out of mud.
