Dr. Phil | TikTok "Daddy"

Halle Kiefer's Vulture post, "Dr. Phil Beseeches You to Please, Stop Commenting ‘Daddy’ on All His Posts" (SEPT. 11, 2020), did not surprise us, because we've posted about the Daddy Thing a number of time.

From Solitary Man (2009), where Ben Kalmen (Michael Douglas) became "clingy” after he had sex with Allyson, his teen step-daughter, whom referred to sex with her step-daddy as the "Daddy Thing". To Brett Gelman's short story "Santa Daddy" that was posted on Vice where Angela invited a middle-aged bearded man to her apartment. After she asked the man to put on a Santa Claus costume, she demanded, “Spank me, Santa Daddy! Spank that ass, Santa Daddy! Spank that 16-year-old ass! Merry Christmas!” And James Franco's Instagram account was flooded with Daddy references too.

Honestly, good luck, Phil. In a move destined to cause a tidal wave of new comments on all his videos, Dr. Phil McGraw took to TikTok this week to beg his followers: Please, for the love of God, stop commenting “daddy” on all his social-media posts.

“You have to stop commenting ‘daddy’ on all my posts,” the TV host asks over angelic harp music.

“I ain’t your daddy. I hate to break it to you, but I ain’t your daddy, and your real daddy is probably getting his feelings hurt. I appreciate the support. It’s a little weird, but I do appreciate the support.”

One may get the impression that Dr. Phil was naïve about the meaning of the Daddy reference, but his, "It’s a little weird [...]" revealed that he suspected that the Daddy references were not innocent.

Interestingly, in this regard, nymphets tend to be a bit more discrete IRL than they are online; thus, instead of asking, "Daddy?", they may ask, "Can I call you dad?"
