*ignores Heroes comment cause she hasn't seen last three eps yet*
I find, as dearjoanwallace pointed out above, men get endearments that speak of bigger things. Sure, women call them honey. Baby, from time to time (which I will just never understand). But have you seen the original Grease? At the end, Olivia Newton John comes out in her black leather and says something along the lines of "What's up, stud?" That's just something that has always irritated me.
And then in slash I read men calling each other disgustingly sweet endearments and I want to rip out my hair because do we really think Sam and Dean, were they having sex, would call each other baby? In such a sense it jars me out of a scene.
In real life...to each his own. I love hearing opinions. Thanks for commenting!!
