# stupid question:
and I'm american, so yes, I'm expected to asked stupid questions. My (english) boyfriend calls me 'luv.' What, if anything, is meant by that? (Hasn't actualy said 'I love you' yet...) Sorry to ask, it's just been bothering me for ages.

# Best case scenario, it means:
"Friend with ovaries" - it's like "Mate".

Example: "Fucking 'ell, you can sink a pint with the best of 'em, Luv!"

Worst case scenario: when used by sexist old men, it means "Being whose opinion I can totally ignore".

Example: "I think I know what I'm talking about, Luv."
