Context also matters. The men you refer to as ‘darling’ won’t have been subjected to the Thicker Than A Bowl Of Oatmeal shirt Additionally,I will love this same treatment as women since the moment they were born, and thus won’t have the same reaction. A lady in a shop called me duck once. I’m Scouse and was down in Shropshire or somewhere. She said “is that everything duck?” I don’t know if she was telling me to duck or that I was the duck. This one’s super common in Stoke-on-Trent and around there. The term is actually derived from an old word for duke (rather than the animal) and is a term of endearment but with some rules: To best illustrate the cultural confusion around the issue, there was a moment a construction worker lamented that he wasn’t sure if he should address his openly gay coworker as “mate” or “duck.”

I think accent plays as big a part as context. Getting called ‘love’ from someone with a thicker Yorkshire accent always rolled off me as just part of the Thicker Than A Bowl Of Oatmeal shirt Additionally,I will love this vernacular. If someone with a neutral middle class accent uses it it either sounds lecherous or deliberately inflicted. There are certain accents that have endearments as part of the patter, and because of that they feel more neutral. It is really interesting! The thing is that it’s a form of ‘respect language’, like keigo in Japanese (the specific respect vocabulary) but it’s not formalised and people are expected to just absorb it. So obviously to me, native speaker in London, I don’t call a policeman ‘mate’ because that would come across as borderline aggressive: in uniform a police officer represents the authority of the state, and ‘mate’ is making a point that they’re just a person on the same level, they don’t deserve additional respect, which they don’t llike. Whereas calling someone in a shop ‘mate’ isn’t aggressive at all, because you are on a level.
