Wait, is it platonic male friends? Either one is good, I think. "Hon" can sometimes be a bit condescending, but so can babe. Really, either one is good in moderation. I think, if you were to threaten me with a knife to my throat right now, I would say I prefer "Hon".
-
personalt I think it puts the ladies down, I see it as an insult. and I don t call any female hon or babe unless they ARE my hon or my babe .
-
I don't care, they can call me either one they prefer.
-
I don't even like it when females call me babe or hon. But if I had to choose I would say hon. Hon is short for honey that implies a sweetness that the speaker enjoys. Babe is short for baby that implies someone who NEEDS to be cared for, an innocent that doesn't know anything.
-
Either of the two.. 'coz I use both to call 'em that too :P
-
Someone better be a REALLY good friend before they use those types of terms of endearment with me. If they are, I don't care which. If we aren't really very close, I'd prefer to be called by name.
-
What the hell is the big rush with this question? Are you on a game show and need it now? Chill out... I will get to my answer when I am darn good and ready. I don't have any male friends, just co-workers and other people in my social circle. I would prefer they call me by my first name.
-
Neither, please call me by my name.
-
I am a Texan...that's something I cannot change, and learning to talk I just picked up on certain things and that is one of them...but I now live in North Carolina and can swear to this as fact...there are more "hun's" and "sweetie's" and "darlin's" passed around here then in all of the great state of Texas.

My hubby calls me Babe. It doesn't bother me, but if one of my guy friends called me babe, then It would probably bother me a little. When they call me hun, I think nothing of it.
-

-
Doesn't matter what ya call, me just dont call me late for dinner!!!
-
dnt care....as long as it aint bitch, ho, slut, whore....u get it?
-
I HATE when a guy calls me babe or baby... I'd like sugar or love/lover. one reason is that my dad calls my mom hon, so its just kind of creepy coming out of the mouth of a guy I'm interested in.
-
doesnt matter
-
I like babe a little bit better, but hon is okay too.
-
if they are just friends or associates or even strangers, they need to call me by my name. only my honey can give me pet names.
-
Neither. But then again, I'm a lesbian. I feel more comfortable with my friend Josh calling me 'bro' than anything else.
-
Not really, but it doesn't really ruffle my feathers. I've certainly been called worse!
-

-

I dislike being called either from anybody.
-
Either is fine coming from a friend or acquaintance...but don't appreciate either from complete strangers.
