AIBU to dislike this saying? I know it's like 'woman crush' to women who are heterosexual, etc. but I just don't like it.

Is it something that would bother you?

Because her sister (a little misguidedly) means it in a loving way - he's her nephew. My sisters would have pet names for my DDs that I thought were a bit cringeworthy, but came from a place of love.

What I DO hate, is when anyone refers to a small child as 'sexy'

Coming from someone who doesn't know you or your child, it would just be wrong to be so familiar.

1happyhippie "I know someone who calls her baby boy sexy. This I don't like."

Yuk. That's revolting. Why don't you ask her what she finds sexy about him?
