Recently, I wanted to do a google search for the term:

baby daddy

This was in relationship to the disappearance of La'Toyia Figueroa in
Philadelphia. I did not know what it meant, but apparently, this is a term
popular in urban areas used to mean the father of a child who no longer is
in a relationship with the mother. IOW, he is the baby's daddy, but is no
longer (or never was) the boyfriend of the mother. So Steven Poaches, in
this case, was the "baby daddy" of La'Toyoia's unborn child. (All the news
outlets were wrong, btw, when they state he was the "ex-boyfriend" of
Latoyia (note also this is the incorrect spelling of her name), as he was
never her boyfriend to begin with.)

However, when I searched for:

"baby daddy"

most of the hits actually returned:

baby's daddy

I thought use of quotes above in the search prevented google from doing
this? If I wanted to return "baby's daddy", I would have searched for:

"baby* daddy"

So what did I do wrong?

Thanks!

That's as specific as most searches will get. At least, initially.
After all, your term still showed-up on the first page. But, if there
were a confusing number of unwanted returns, you can subtract an
unwanted word. So, you'd re-search with the term (in this case):
["baby daddy" -baby's]

Everything in the brackets.

Baby mama (momma) is also used under opposite circumstances. Duh!

"1. baby daddy


Short for "Baby's Daddy". The father of your child, whom you did not marry,
and with whom you are not currently involved.
That man isn't my boyfriend, he's my baby daddy."

It isn't just urban areas.

If he "never was", then he's a rapist, yes?

It's "babby's daddy." Possessive.

One more time for the sly racist cunt...

"Baby daddy" and "baby mama" are not "inner city" colloquialisms. Those
terms are used in towns small and large all across America. Your fascination
with the terms shines a light...on you.

Wrong ass-munch. He never loved the girl or was going out with her. They
just had sex.

No duh. He's the baby daddy.

I saw it on a news broadcast. Don't remember if it was a local station or
one of the national ones.

"Stephen Poaches, the ex-boyfriend who told police and a radio audience that
he knew nothing of La'Toyia Figueroa's disappearance, was arrested while
trying to move the pregnant woman's decomposing body in Chester yesterday,
police said.

[...]

Stephanie Stephenson, an aunt who raised Figueroa and who provided the
correct spelling of her name, said, "I can't talk about it today. I am

I guess this group attracts all kinds of numpties like yourself. Shove off.

"Who's your baby daddy?
A Brooklyn author is sponsoring a contest that offers 10 lucky black couples
with children free weddings. But is this really going to strengthen the
black family?"

[...]

"She sees the campaign as a way to draw attention to -- and perhaps
decrease -- the number of black couples who call each other "baby daddy" and
"baby mama" instead of "husband" and "wife."

According to figures from the National Center for Health Statistics, 68
percent of black children are born to unwed mothers (compared with 28
percent of white children and 33 percent of children overall). Also,
according to the U.S. Census, 45 percent of black families have single
female heads of household (compared with 14 percent overall, and more than
any other group). The slang term "baby daddy" was popularized in rap songs,
and can be pejorative, denoting the guy who fathered your kid but isn't
putting in for Pampers (possibly leading, as Reid notes, to a "baby mama
drama"). She says, however, that lots of couples she's spoken to for this
project use it as a term of endearment."

Is Blinky the father?

Freedom is never free....

Julie P. <jporpiglia@hotmail.com> wrote:

Is that really the quote? If so, it's pretty tame. It's more like this;

The term "baby mama" or "baby daddy" is an American colloquialism used by
unmarried ghetto dwellers and trailer trash in reference to whom they
*think* may be the mother/father of a child. Originally coined by no-class
blacks, it has been recently adopted by no-class whites, hispanics, etc. as
well. These terms have been made even more popular lately by the seedier
side of American media.

And now, for the benefit of those in other countries who may not be
bombarded with this crap on an almost daily basis;

In America there are an increasing number of television (and now apparently
radio) shows that offer free DNA testing in exchange for having the dregs of
society appear on said shows and expose themselves as the complete and utter
fools that they are. It's all done under the guise of identifying the "baby
daddy" in order to institute child support, but every thinking person knows
this is bullshit as (usually) the "baby daddy" is not gainfully employed.

The *real* reason behind the free DNA tests is the so-called entertainment
value. Generally they are offered to "baby mamas" who have had had sex with
multiple partners within the time frame required by nature, and truly have
no idea who the father is. Now here's the odd thing. All the potential
"baby daddys" have to willingly submit to the test which, no matter the
consequences, they happily do in order to obtain their 15 minutes of fame by
appearing on television with their pants falling off.

So anyway, the host of the show gathers the "baby mama" and 2-5 possible
"baby daddys" on stage, and announces who the "real" father is. Often this
is preceeded by pearls of wisdom offered up by the potential "baby daddys"
such as, "I can't be duh baby daddy cuz duh kid don't look like me." And
sadly, sometimes this is correct. Occasionally the DNA doesn't match
anybody on stage, at which point all the potential "baby daddys" knowing
they are off the hook, jump up and down (sometimes causing their pants to
fall off completely) and call the "baby mama" a "ho" (another no-class
colloquialism meaning; whore) while the "baby-mama" breaks down in tears.
And she's not crying because she's sorry she's such an ignorant slut who
will fuck anything with a dick, but because she forgot to include one or two
other possible "baby daddys" in the pool of sperm doners to be tested. At
this point the host of the show will usually brighten the "baby mama" day by
putting his or her arm around the "baby-mama" and offering to have her back
on the show again. Next time she can bring the rest of the potential "baby
daddys" she'd forgotten she fucked the first time around. This almost
*always* cheers the "baby mama" up almost as much as it makes me want to
vomit.

My guess is the whole thing's designed to make middle-America (myself
included) feel better about ourselves by giving us something to point and
laugh at while we shell out a good portion of our paychecks to support these
idiots and their unwanted children. Personally, I don't find it the least
bit funny or amusing. I think it's sad. I feel sad for the children in
question who's mothers are too selfish and stupid to even know who the
child's father is. What chance does any child have in life getting off to a
start like that? And yes, I admit I feel a little sad for myself because I
am forced to do without some things I'd like because my government insists I
pay for the upkeep of folks who are not my personal responsibility. But the
thing I feel most sad about is that some of the biggest purveyors of this
DNA testing garbage are "minority" hosts. ANYBODY who hosts one of those
shows should be ashamed of themselves, but most of all "minority" hosts.
These are the same morons, who, when they are not doing shows about how
minorities have been/are/always will be/ exploited ... Think nothing of
exploiting "their own" by doing "baby mama" shows for ratings and profit.
Fuckin' hypocrites, the lot.

Rant over. Now who wants to be the first to insist anything I said above is
either untrue, or somehow racist?

Oxford Systems? Anybody? Oxford Systems?

it's "baby daddy' because it's ebonics. 99% of the time it refers to
the owner of a black penis. All dick and no brain.
