re: Men of the OT: Is there anything your wife calls you that you absolutely hate?

I didn’t marry a random woman. Never in my life have I experienced a woman referencing a video game to make a point. Are you one of those pretend women?

Whoa whoa whoa let’s back this up. I would never consider marrying a man that couldn’t keep up with me shooting or fishing, so I chose accordingly. I guaran-damn-tee you he isn’t an oddball, he just thinks being referred to as “dude” is disrespectful. I was just wondering if most men agree with him that it’s disrespectful, or if most men disagree. That’s it.

If I call my husband "dude" it is usually followed by "are you for real right now?" and is concerning some large mess he made or something like that. I usually laugh and he never says anything about me saying dude. This doesn't help or explain your situation but it is all I've got.

Yes!!!! That is exactly the context! Except mine says “Don’t call me “Dude”!”

Can’t live with ‘em, can’t shoot ‘em.

Well, that reeks of insecurity.

I don’t like being call “dude” by anyone. Male or female. Same goes for “bruh”. But if my wife called me “dude” followed by “take off your clothes and get in the bedroom, I want to ride you until you can’t think straight” I probably wouldn’t really care about the “dude” part.

In other words, context matters
