Amy SchumerIsn't it funny that they say most girls have daddy issues, when really, every dude does?
About This Quote
The human race has a peculiar affinity for the idiom “Daddy Issues.” In fact, it might be the only phrase that every boy and girl on Earth have in common. It’s not just a phrase that people use to describe themselves, though. The phrase has been documented throughout history by various authors. In his book The Man Who Ate Himself, author David Szalay quotes Latin poet Ovadius Gallo, who wrote: "Let no man say or write that he is a man of no virtue." Here's another example from the Bible: "For I know my own heart, and my own heart speaks to me, saying 'You also like a man of strife and contention.' " So why do we keep on using this phrase? Well, if there is one thing that seems to be universal about men it’s that they all have some sort of “daddy issues.”
