Heterosexual couples have it easy with parental nicknames: Mom and Dad, Ma and Pa, or even Mother and Father. But for same-sex parents, it’s a bit trickier. Redditors recently shared their solutions to the “dad and dad” dilemma in the r/gaybros forum. One person said, “My husband is white, so he’s Dad/Daddy, and I’m Latino, so they call me Papa/Papi.” One comment funnily mentioned a gay couple with a kid. They said the family was so dialed in that the kid could yell ‘Dad!’ and the right dad would know.
