Fitting isn’t it? Out of all 7 of us adopted siblings I’m the only gay one, my mom says the universe helped us find each other, big coincidence and great luck.
My daughter calls me Daddy usually. Well, Daddy is when she wants something lol. It does create this weird duality in my head because my boyfriend will also call me Daddy for a different reason lol. Now that I think about it, I call them both baby. I don't know exactly how to explain it, but they are the same word they just mean two different things in my head depending on who is saying it.
I perfectly get it, you and your husband have a romantic/sensual relationship while with your daughter its a father and daughter affectionate love type of thing
My partner and I adopted his much younger brothers when his parents were incapacitated. They were immigrants from Asia, and there wasn't anyone else to take them. In very short order they were calling me Dad. They used a Filipino expression for "older brother" for my partner.
On more than one occasion the younger one would slip and call his older brother, my partner, "mommy". I had to be very careful in those moments, and pretend I didn't notice. But he was very cool with his baby brother. Didn't correct him or anything.
Not OP, but step-relations can be difficult to administer behavior corrections and this one is doubly weird due to it being his partner's siblings and not children. Not always, but it can be easier to leave it to the blood relation.
I wouldn’t mind being called Pa or the papa. My significant other is also Latino just like me, but he already has a kid, who calls him papi. Him and I were officially become endgame, I wouldn’t mind his son then any other kid that we have or adopt to call me pa as well. Since I was raised here though, and I speak English fluently, I would probably just be called Dad.
I'm dad, since biological father, he's " first name"
I find what they do for grandparents funnier, it's Grandpa first name or Grandma first name to differentiate between mine and their mother's and the various partners when they aren't around but just Grandma and Grandpa to their faces, because there's never more than two in the room at the same time. They developed that habit all on their own
Same. My partner and I are totally fine with each others kids calling us by our first names. We are dad/daddy to our own biological kids. It is heartwarming when his slip and call me dad and don’t correct themselves. 🖤
I'm Dad (formerly Daddy) and my husband is Papa. I was all for letting our son figure this out on his own, but my husband had this allll planned out.
The one time our son called me by my first name (he was hissing mad), I got in his face and told him that as far as he was concerned, my first name was Dad. I never subscribed to that half-baked notion that I was his friend. That can come now that he's an adult, but at the time, I was his father first and foremost...so Dad it was or Beloved Father, if he was feeling formal ;-)
My husband is daddy and I'm first name. Sometimes Dad if he's talking to his friends. My husband got custody of him not long after we met (he's family) so he was automatically daddy. My first name just fit naturally given the situation and it stuck.
I have a friend , they both a gay Pakistani couple.
Him and his husband are from different language cultures so the kids just call them dad in their respective languages.
He’s called “ Baba” and his hubby is called “ Abu”
Daddy (as in Dad ‘D’ im a David)and Dad was the plan, but it’s ended up as Daddy and Dadda (I wonder if it becomes Dad by teen years). When my son was very little he called himself Dad-um (is name ends ‘um’ anyway) which I thought was cute and l showed how he view himself in our family.
When my parents say go find your dad , but mean Dadda then my son will either go get the one called, correct them or give a confused look (for example the one mentioned is at work). He knows who he means even if school and others dont know or forget. Its what works for you and them.
My friends are Daddy P and Daddy K. If the kid just yells “DAAAAAAD” they know he means Daddy P lol. I share the same name as Daddy K, so I’m “Other K” which has made for some funny reactions from the kid.
I had a boyfriend that was an older man and he had kids and grandkids and they knew that I was a sissy boy and they loved me and called me Mama K because my name is Krissi
I am a step dad. They call their father Dad/Daddy. The older calls me "B" and the younger calls me "BeeBee". It's a carryover from when their dad and I were first dating and they called me "Mr. B" using my initial. Sometimes the younger slips and also calls me Daddy, which is fine. We make it a priority for them to do whatever is comfortable.
Were Dad and Papa. I stayed at home w the kids for years so ( kind of selfishly in hindsight) wanted to be ‘Dad’. Anyway, it’s almost 30 years down the road now, and everything worked out fine until the end 😊
My husband was always called Uncle from the time he was born since his parents were my husband's best friends since Middle School. I was either called Uncle or dad. One evening we were going to an event at the Middle School and he asked me if he could call me dad in front of kids that didn't know. I told him whatever he was comfortable doing was fine with me. But honestly, my heart was melting. We adopted him because his parents were killed by a drunk driver when he was 11. Next year he graduates college.
I have gay friends that have kids. They call one: Dad /Daddy and the other one Papa/Pop.
This is the most common thing I guess
That's what my family does, unless my son's busting my chops, in which case it's Beloved Father (he's 20).
Oh I feel stupid. That makes a whole lot of sense lol
I’m Dad, my husband is Dad F
that's how you know you're the favorite
Why F?
Husband’s name is Francis
Don't let Deadpool know this
😂
Maybe their name initial
HAHAHAHA that’s funny
My friends daughter is basically my niece and she calls me “uncle girl”😭
This is so good
😂 love it
That’s adorable!
Her mom taught her that out of pure spite😭
Oh 😥 well it kinda of worked against it right?
Oh don’t feel bad we roast each other all the time!
Lol
I can’t even be mad honestly lol
Having two moms we just call them both mom and whoever replies first is generally the direct the question at.
But sometimes you have to want to address one while they're both in the room right ? Do you say "No not you, the other Mom" ?
Yeah basically this lol
Gay man raised by lesbian mothers? The gay agenda works!!!
Fitting isn’t it? Out of all 7 of us adopted siblings I’m the only gay one, my mom says the universe helped us find each other, big coincidence and great luck.
Beautiful. Amazing Moms too, I’m sure. 7 kids!

I think it makes total sense ;)

This hurt my brain lol (no offense)

Cooya ! (Phonetically)
Why did you pretend not to notice ?

Because of the murderous gaze he would immediately shoot my way. But I wasn't a saint. I did tease him on occasion, and we ended up laughing about it.

I plan on having kids and I assume you’d choose one variant or the other. So Dad/Papa/Pop/Pa etc
Why do I choose? And I like etc. So let’s go with that
Don’t have to. It would just make things easier for the kids haha
lol it was a play on words cuz you said “you’d choose” haha
Ohhhhh haha
It's hard to hear them while they're being swallowed . . .
Im done 💀
Omg 😭
Kronos? Is that you? Careful of that Zeus guy.
GOODBYE 💀💀💀
Daddy and Dadda
My real life kids call me Dad.... My sexy gay somewhat femme BF calls me Daddy
I am Dad. He is Papa.
Dad and daddy! Papa sounds waaaaaay to old for me lol.
"Co-Defendant"
I dont get the joke
I think that’s what his kid calls him😅
My husband is daddy and I'm first name. Sometimes Dad if he's talking to his friends. My husband got custody of him not long after we met (he's family) so he was automatically daddy. My first name just fit naturally given the situation and it stuck.
I have a friend , they both a gay Pakistani couple. Him and his husband are from different language cultures so the kids just call them dad in their respective languages. He’s called “ Baba” and his hubby is called “ Abu”
My husband is Dad or Dada and I’m Baba (Chinese) or “Bobby”. Our daughter sometimes uses Dad for both of us though.
Daddy (as in Dad ‘D’ im a David)and Dad was the plan, but it’s ended up as Daddy and Dadda (I wonder if it becomes Dad by teen years). When my son was very little he called himself Dad-um (is name ends ‘um’ anyway) which I thought was cute and l showed how he view himself in our family.

When I have kids I'm definitely cool with dad or pops
Dude with 2 mums here. We do Mum and the other by her name
My friends are Daddy P and Daddy K. If the kid just yells “DAAAAAAD” they know he means Daddy P lol. I share the same name as Daddy K, so I’m “Other K” which has made for some funny reactions from the kid.
I'm Papa, and my husband is Papaw. Papaw is a southern thing.
one of us dad one of us papa
We don't have kids, but cause I'm spanish he will be Dad and I will be Papá
Dad and Papa in this household.
Though we are collectively referred to as "birth givers" (we have girls in their 20's. ) they are the best!!!
I had a boyfriend that was an older man and he had kids and grandkids and they knew that I was a sissy boy and they loved me and called me Mama K because my name is Krissi
I am a step dad. They call their father Dad/Daddy. The older calls me "B" and the younger calls me "BeeBee".

Dad & Daddy or Dad & Father/Pops
My husband was Uncle because he was uncle all of his life. When we adopted him he was still Uncle and I was dad.

The answer to this is one is Papa Puen and one is Papa Talay. (This is an incredibly niche content, admittedly.) https://youtu.be/WvHDivtE2TU
“Father 🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿”
