Straight Guys With Daddy Issues In Denial

I've updated this because idiots who skim instead of read usually don't see what they choose not to see. 

WHO USES DADDY ISSUES?
Daddy issues is primarily used of women in colloquial speech and writing, both online and off, and mainly in the context of romance, dating, and sex.

Its connotation varies by context. When used by women of themselves, daddy issues can be earnest, used by women to explain recurrent behaviors in relationships, or humorous, used in lighthearted self-deprecation of those issues. When used by men of women, it can be dismissive or even misogynistic, diminishing undesirable traits in women. Dating advice websites for men, for example, may advise a man not to date a girl with daddy issues. In LGBTQ communities, daddy issues can be used in the context of a man in a relationship with an older man. . . 

Given the negative connotation of daddy issues, psychologists generally label relationship challenges with fathers as a father complex, among other terms.

I'm not so polite.   Daddy issues denied are daddy issues relayed.  Anyone who is older than Duncan who calls him "Dad" or treats him as some kind of in loco parentis has got daddy issues and they are definitely loco.
