“Honestly, everyone has been surprisingly tame. No dick pics or anything. Lots of marriage proposals but also a lot of really amazing supportive messages. I definitely get a lot of “ZADDY” comments. I honestly had no idea what that meant and had to look it up. And now my close friends are trolling my Instagram and commenting “ZADDY” everywhere.”— Newly elected Alabama Senator Doug Jones’ out son Carson, when asked by Hornet about his craziest Instagram interactions since his father narrowly beat out Roy Moore. For reference, here’s what Urban Dictionary has to say about “Zaddy.”

Guys keep calling Alabama Senator Doug Jones’ hot son this gay slang word. He’s confused.

Not sure what it means either lol.
GC1985
Thick?!!
GC1985
Oh look it’s the troll copying my name again. That reply wasn’t by me. Get your own name please.
RoughRugger
There’s literally a link to the Urban Dictionary definition in the story.
GC1985
Context seems to be lacking here. I didn’t click the link to a site not known for it’s seriousness. When will queerty ban fake accounts?
GC1985
AND respect those of us with mental health issues.

I just looked up the word what it meant and he is kind of that “zaddy” but I wouldn’t call him that , he’s a good-looking handsome young man and any guy would be lucky to have him even if his dad is to Senator or not I would be honored to have him in my presence with me

1. No one can create a duplicate of your username. The database would reject it and not let them register
2. Did you just admit to being mentally ill?
3. Could your mental illness be making you think someone is copying your username?
PinkoOfTheGange
I had to look it up too.
Xzamilloh
@mhoffman, I had someone one here spoofing my name and even linking to my personal blog, so unless Queerty updated its site, your name can be copied.
mhoffman953
@Xzamilloh
I tested it to verify for myself before I typed my response. I tried registering using GC1985 and even tried using my own screen name and it wouldn’t let me.
I’m unsure about your situation. Queerty could’ve changed the registration process OR the person used a special character or misspelling of your name like Xzamiloh or Xzamil|oh (notice the slash pretending to be an L), but as of now you cannot create an account with the same username
Tobi
@mhoffman953 – GC1985 is psychotic, it starts silly little flamewars with itself all the time, it’s just best ignored. Drop the T.
GC1985
I didn’t really to myself you lying tool. You can change the account name in your account after registering under a different name. Stupidity seems to run in your mind. Don’t attack me because you don’t know anything about the internet.

Carson Jones, the openly gay son of Senator-elect Doug Jones, is “thrilled” his father was victorious over anti-LGBTQ Roy Moore in last week’s Alabama election.
Brian
@mhoffman953 Queerty does allow duplicate names. My real name is Brian, so that’s the name I use here. There’s also a homophobic troll who uses the name Brian, and people sometimes yell at me. You should learn the basics of the site before calling random strangers crazy.
leobaga
Brian, don’t be a liar. Queerty uses WordPress. It can’t duplicate username. Yes, GC is a lunatic.
tham
It Millennial for “I have a daddy complex (since I still live with my parents) so zaddy means zexy.
tham
What’s that saying? If it’s not one thing, it’s your mother. Lol.
I just find parent inspired sex slang to be…kind of gross. Like MILF, Dad bod and such.
I’m not saying Robert Redford isn’t sexy (his voice man, he can talk my pants off)…but calling him a GPILF kills my woodie.
So calling someone a zaddy is a rap song gone bad.
GC1985
*fake account alert*
This moron doesn’t know when to quit.
Xzamilloh
GC, contact Queerty at their email. That’s what I had to do when someone (I know who it was) copied my username and was masquerading as me.
Tobi
@Xzamilloh – no one is masquerading as the seriously fell-out-of-the-nest cuckoo GC1985. It starts these silly little flamewars with itself and then tries to drag everyone else into their sad pathetic little game. Ignore.
GC1985
Fake account – your attempts of mockery are boring and old. It isn’t 2014 anymore. Please go back to chathour where you chased after kids.
Thanks.
Brian
It’s such a weird way to spend his time! I’ll never understand why people do that.
leobaga
You are mentally ill. Please accept who you are.

Zaddy is a Black vernacular term that’s spread a bit into the wider culture. It’s a nice term, meaning, as tham says, “sexy” or “sexy daddy.” Carson Jones should chat with some of his father’s voters. They could quickly bring him up on the lingo.
Xzamilloh
Carson Jones should chat with his father, period. He’s not even seated in the Senate yet and he’s already pandering to Republican voters and demonstrating that he was just the best choice of two not great — but one obviously worse — choices
Kangol
I know Xzamilloh. Look at Ralph Northam in Virginia too. He won by a sizable margin but is already trying to become Repub-lite. I mean, I don’t know what gets into these Democrats, but it’s like they actively try to piss off their base, whereas so many Republicans these days play almost exclusively to theirs.
Redmage
This stuff makes me crack up, because it just makes gays look so vapid, creepy, and lame.. Its embarrassing. If the dude was the son of a Republican politician, and was a Republican himself, he would not be considered “hot”, and he’d be called a “self-hater” (I hate both parties, but this is just the truth).
I don’t find anything hot about him.. He looks like the typical beta male hipster.
GC1985
Um.. you can’t be a human being and be a Republican. Republicans are vile.
Kangol
Not true. When Rob Portman’s son came out, people didn’t attack the young man, and praised his father for not being a raging Republican homophobe. People also did say that Portman’s son was hot. The issue isn’t having a Republican parent, the issue is whether a gay person actively supports people who push anti-gay legislation, policies, laws, religious beliefs, etc. Why is that so hard to grasp?
GC1985
Hoffman, you know nothing about how this site works or the work arounds. You can change the name in your account. This is what this stalker did.
I never said I had a mental illness. That is the fake account. But it doesn’t surprise me you hate on people who are different than you. That is what your favorite little man Trump does.
You are just a brain dead Trump supporter. The 32% that still idiotically support him.
Bob LaBlah
Well I’ll be damn. Look what the wind blew back across the border. Did your attempt to become the second Reubenana surgery go ok? Can’t wait to see how those bird legs of yours support that type of ass. lol lol lol
Girls, if you have a minute do a google search for Reubenana and see for yourself how ol’ GC1985 walked around claiming thats who she was. This child is deranged, trust me.

A Zaddy is someone who is considered to be highly attractive basically. I normally use Urban dictionary.com to help with new words. 🙂
Blackceo
For me this might be one of those “is he cute or is it the beard” sort of things. Even though he’s not my type its nice to see just a regular guy without overly manicured eyebrows or beard, and that in itself is attractive when we are bombarded with these perfectly manicured gays in gay media.
