The term "Baby Daddy" is one of disrespect. Period.
It's used to actually demean the child more than anyone else.
When does the word "mom" or "dad" have an adjective?
When there's action.
A "stepmom" or "stepdad" implies that a marriage has occurred and hence the need for an adjective.
So, technically the term "baby daddy" is grammatically incorrect because you have double nouns.
Unless the dad is literally a baby, then we'd have a medical miracle at hand.
Recently, a lawyer with the Boston Housing Authority decided to describe a living situation as having a baby daddy as the partner of the woman in the case the lawyer was investigating. Check out the story here.
Offensive and dumb.
