I was sharing with the same friend the other day the situation that made me almost quit writing and posting. And it didn't have to do with an endearment. Someone completely jumped my shit for an entirely different situation having to do with m/m and wincest and pretty much suggested I should go to hell and how dare I make Dean do those things to Sam, blah blah blah.
You know, if someone doesn't have something nice to say they should keep their mouth shut.
And, hell no, I am not ever going to put a warning on my fic for endearments. No fucking way, baby. Not gonna happen.
I think every chapter of every fic I have ever written has at least one use of the word baby. And you are absolutely right, they are ways of expressing love, to make the other person feel loved and cherished. What difference does it make if it is two men, two women, or a het couple? Seriously, if you love and cherish someone you are going to use endearments when speaking to them.
I have been married a long fucking time and I only use my husbands name maybe half of the time. The other half of the time I call him by some *endearment* and I sure as hell am not gonna put an endearment warning on my house. Fuck that, baby.
