male only Why Do I Hate The Word "hubby" So Much?

[ArcusX 216]

I can't stand when I read, "my hubby" this, and "my hubby" that. I can't explain why. Maybe I would compare it to calling my wife, "my 'ol lady."

Is it just me?

If she called u her ol man it would be like that. Hubby is like you calling her wifey. Much less offensive in my book. Hubby has a nice warm feel when I type it about my man.

For me, it's a term of endearment. I agree with Ashleyc.

I call mine hubby and he calls me wifey. Funny... I guess we all have our own terms of endearment. Nothin seems to bother me too much.

There are worse things to be called.....

[ArcusX 216]

I get the endearment... I do. It just bugs me for some reason. I couldn't think of the equivalent to Hubby, but Wifey must be it. I don't like it either. I'd never call my wife that.

What's with all the chicks in the man room? LOL

Well, my wife prefers to call me "old b@stard" so hubby would be a step up

There's a man room? And yeah, why are their females in there?

[Ms skinniness 3,003]

Is this the "Man's" room?

The same reason there are men in the powder room

I call my husband... "Hubby"

It's just an endearing term<3

I've been with him for going on 19-yrs and it's just what I like to call him... No complains at my house

That was a COMPLETE accident!

[ArcusX 216]

Well, so far, it looks like the answer to my question is, "yes." I am the only one..

[ozeedonkee 145]

No way! I'd never call mine "hubby." But I'm not inclined towards calling anyone anything other than their actual name.
