People who say "Hon"
Replies

I'm not really fond of any type of these such as sweetie, hon, darlin etc. Gets on my nerves.0

Ahem. Again, taking things much to seriously.
Let me spell it out for you. I used the exact format of the OP's statement, which included "hate", to emphasize the ridiculous nature of his statement.
Oh, who am I kidding, I seriously despise people who misspell hon/hun. My life has no meaning, and is thusly driven by such menial matters.
Now off to Cheeburger Cheeburger I go!
Well..someone took that as a direct hit!

Aw hunny...do you need me to bake you a cupcake as well?
Edit: I'll even add extra cream cheese frosting and hand dip it into chocolate ganache to make you feel even better :laugh:0 -
I think we should focus on something more meaningful like boobs ... this psychological stuff hurts my head. :flowerforyou:0

Any word like that irks me! especially when its a female saying that to another female. UNLESS they are family, that's the Only excuse for it

the extra BS? O.o. So if I say to a friend, "everything okay, hun?" I'm creating BS?0 -
When you say "people" do you mean women? We women tend to call each other hon. We don't usually call a man hon. I certainly don't. It's inappropriate for a man to call a woman by an enduring term and vice versa. Unless, of course, they both want that and expect that in their relationship.
As a woman, I find it sexest. I would think a man could think the same thing. But, as I say, we women do call each other endearing terms as part of our friendships.0 -
Thats the biggest worry in your life right now? Lucky you. I say it all the time, I mean it as an endearment, I dont say hun to people I dont care bout.0
-
It doesn't bother me at all........0
-
yup
doesn't sound right to Me
im not trying to debate this with anybody lol its just my opinion
i know its just an endearing term but it sounds awkward. its a word added in to make someone feel loved, or let em know they care about you
BUT
there are those who use it every possible chance they have to strangers. it sounds fake. in my option its meant to be for family or CLOSE CLOSE friends. not to every average person you talk to0 -

Of course you're not starting a debate...but once you're dealing with hangry people who haven't had a cupcake in forever, someone will take it as one.0 -

My best friend is a married man, whose wife I adore, and I can him hon, honey, sweetie, and he calls me honey or hon. I do not find it inappropriate or sexist. To each their own.0 -
Haven't read the other posts, but "Hon" doesn't bother me.
"Babe" on the other hand..0 -

It has been awhile, almost a month since no one will make them for me. Now I have to make cupcakes tomorrow. Thanks.
But I did just buy a real piping bag so at least I get to try it out.0 -

BS can be neither created nor destroyed. Only transferred.0 -

It bothers me when "young" (that is 40 somethings) call older people "hon" as if doing them a favor...it is condescending and belittling0
-
I get called hon a lot or sweetie and darlin and I do not mind it at all, I don't view it as negative, or degrading in any way.0
