What Does That Mean?

While recently perusing some of the profiles, I came across the profile of a very appealing young lad of 18 who very much resembles the young Tom Cruise. He is seeking an older partner up to age 50. You must admit that for an 18 year old, 50 is pretty old. His ideal is both handsome and muscular. There is nothing wrong with that. A young man needs what a young man needs. The next paragraph of his profile states that he needs a "sugar Daddy."

I wrote to him asking, "If you want a sugar daddy what does it matter what he looks like?"

His response: What does that mean?

I had to explain to the handsome lad that he was basically prostituting himself; not that there is anything wrong with that. My point is that he had not a clue what a sugar daddy was. It got me to thinking, how many younger people understand what certain phrases and words really mean or were meant to mean?

There was a time when a "bear" was a muscular, hairy man. Now he is any fat, hairy guy. I mean no offense; just be honest about who you are.

Chubs? Should be a guy with a little extra body fat. Now: Anything from a few extra pounds to morbidly obese.

Athletic? Once meant anything from a swimmers build to a body builder. Now? Anything from a
swimmer to a sumo wrestler.

Straight? A guy who is naturally drawn to women. Straight guys do not suck dick, eat ass, or get fucked by another straight guy. If these are things you desire, the best you can hope for are either straight curious or bi.

Again, I stress, I don't wish to offend. Just be honest about who you are and what you are looking for for.

  • I think much of the issue is that the younger generations hear the catch phrases used incorrectly or without any contextual clues. These mistakes spread like wildfire (thanks, internet....) and take on an entirely new meaning. It wasn't too long ago that "swag" was coined by the Hollywood types as a shortcut for Stuff We All Get, referring to those goody bags handed out at various functions. Apparently "swag" has become a shortened (or bastardized, depending on your level of Grammar Nazi-ism) version of "swagger" that refers to a person whose charisma is very appealing to the people they want to date.

    Another example. In the original post a sentence starts with "I had to explain to the handsome lad that he was basically prostituting himself;" but then adds the qualifier, "not that there is anything wrong with that.". Is this related to the misrepresentation of the word "tolerate" that we hear incessantly? State that you disagree with a certain lifestyle or social viewpoint and you'll be told "You need to be more tolerant!". Oh do I now?

    Let's define that word. Tolerate - verb - to endure without repugnance; put up with. Basically, to accept the existence of something because you know you can't change it. We tolerate paper cuts, mosquito bites, bad drivers, and that jerk with 50 items in the express checkout. It doesn't mean we like, agree with, or desire to have any of that stuff. It just means we accept the fact that it's out there.

  • Some of the terms you talk about are just very vague and in the eye of the beholder. There's not a strict definition of "bear" or "chub," for example.

    Some sites consider a "bear" to be any guy who has any hair on his body. Doesn't matter if he's 120 pounds.

    Myself, I consider a bear to be more like the animal, and a man of some substance.

    Sounds like you would consider a "chub" to be any guy who is overweight. OTOH, I'd consider a chub to be a guy who is extremely overweight. Like guys who are "gainers" and trying to be obese.

    But on stuff like this, it's everyone for himself in terms of definitions. My best friend considers any guy who doesn't look like he's straight out of a concentration camp or a Biafran refugee camp to be fat :)

  • To: HISBI and ROOKIE. Both are valid comments.

    But Henry Tudor WAS a handsome dog when he was a young man (I know, I'm old enuf LMAO). Just look at some of his portraits BEFORE he became HRVIII. And was was able to pull 6 wives and, if history is any guide, countless bed partners. I'd bet there were a few "boys" in the mix too. The Prince, after all, will become the new "Daddy Sugar".

    The court clothing (thick brocade coats, mantles, etc) at the time sure didn't help in slimming down a person who was of medium frame--made him (and her too) look absolutely worse if U were fat--which HR was in his later years. Just look at that famous Holbein portrait.

    He did have gout and other long term health problems associated with gluttony (if the records are accurate). I, for one, couldn't imagine being in bed with him. As Rookee has said, in his older years he was a "tall, fat fuck". He was a tall, UGLY (in temperment, in demeanour, in looks), fat fuck!

  • I think that there are Sea few or parts of a few issues going on with guys looking for "sugar daddies".

    They still haven't left the "nest" as it were. They have been GIVEN everything by their parents and think the world still "owes" them.

    Mass media: crap like the Kardashians, Distressed Wives of whatever damn city, Nicki Polezzi and the whatevers of New Jersey, others that I can't recall now, only exacerbate the attitude that the whole world owes everyone else a living. The constant reminder in the Press about Perennial losers like Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Nicole Ritchie, et al foster the attitude that "I am still owed".

    Self-Absorption: Everything revolves around "cute me".

    The overall economy: There are just too few jobs to be had.

    There really ARE rich old men out there who are willing to "pay" companionship, but age will creep up--so get a good career and hope the economy turns around.

  • In response to notarookee: Henry VIII was over six feet tall. So he was a . . . tall fat fuck.

  • Back when I taught a communications class in our Instructor Training Course (Army days) we had a video that was narrated by a newsman popular at the time (this was in the 60s/70s). I remember one of the phrases that he mention in that video to this day. The phrase was "up tight.." The Hippies would have add "and out of sight!"

    The point of that portion (and there were many others) was where the term "up tight" came from. It came from the barnyard and copulation that occurs between bulls and cows, horses, and pigs...

    One of the other concepts he presented was how terminology gets picked up in everyday language. Often it is through late-night talk shows. At least, at the time, this is what I remembered.

    I see that sugar daddy comment in many profiles. Another one that is clear to me is a comment that a guy is looking for a "generous" daddy. To me, a "generous" daddy is the same as "sugar daddy."

    Ahh, language is full of euphemisms, and for misunderstanding. That poor kid probably hasn't looked in a dictionary since 3rd grade - ever since then he has had a computer. Never put pen to paper and actually wrote something in long hand!
