[QUOTE]Originally posted by RaeRay2112: [QB] I tend not to find them patronizing if they aren't gendered. For example, when I'm working in my shop and a customer calls the male staff 'mate' and me 'love' because of my feminine apperance. Ugh. However, me and my partner use 'baby, honey, sweetie, mermaid (lol), sugar mouse, puppy, kitty, sweetpea, ducky... a lot. Honey seems a little gendered to me, like too feminine, but maybe only because I haven't called my partner 'honey' yet. Maybe you'd find pet names that are like relationship 'in jokes' better? Like say if you partner was called Bill, you can say Billy Bunny or something, it could be both said as a joke and as something 'cute'. [/QB][/QUOTE]
