I have read things in the realm of smut that would make the common “daddy fetish” story look like “Goodnight Moon.” Come back to me when you reach the cold, hard bottom of the slash fic iceberg. I’m also unsure how, as someone who is reading erotic stories in their spare time, “daddies” is the subject that compelled you to write a letter to your local advice columnist. If it’s not something you’re into, and it’s between two consenting adults, then I don’t see why it’s our business. I could explain what a kink is or do some psychosexual analysis on why some men are into “daddies,” but I think all that would accomplish is bringing us both five minutes closer to our last breaths on earth. I suppose I’m not sure what you want me to do here. I’m sorry, but given the context of your letter, I have to begin with the assertion that being in your mid-20s makes you a “young gay.” It’s certainly not ripe old age, but my brother in Christ, you can walk to Enterprise and rent a Subaru. What are your two cents on this? Am I being prejudiced against relationships with large age gaps? Maybe it’s not always like that, and those are just bad examples in which a line is crossed.
So when I see father-son style bonding between men being fetishized, for me it comes off as weird and uncomfortable.įor what it’s worth, of the erotic stories I mentioned earlier, they seem to involve a relationship between a teenager or early twenty-something and a man who’s at least in his late thirties, if not forties. Furthermore, I’d like to think we’re equals, and that I’m not an authority figure to him or vice versa. Personally, I like to think of a potential boyfriend as being someone around my age who, romantic feelings aside, is like my best friend or brother, not my father. At the same time, I know it’s probably more nuanced than that, and there must be a way to go about doing it consensually. It seems to me like this is a toxic power dynamic that can lead to abuse or sexual exploitation. I looked into it further, and apparently some young gay men get off on the idea of an older boyfriend who acts as a mentor and father figure. I’ve encountered this in a few online erotic stories I’ve read recently.
(2016) I wasn’t sure it was normal to watch it.I’m a young gay in his mid-20s, and I was wondering: What is it with the kink some gay guys have for daddies?

Some also touched on lack of teacher awareness of the potential additional vulnerabilities faced by young people who do not identify as either male or female in a binary manner.

But it has also exposed children to the risk of harm, including seeing extreme pornography and sexting.
