dinglefritz, to some those "silly role-playing games" are a way of life. For a "boy" to call his partner "Daddy" is a term of respect that some hold in the highest regards.

The term "Daddy" is an interesting one. In the vanilla world it usually refers to age but in the leather world it refers to one's role in the relationship. In fact, I know Daddies who are younger than their "boys".
