Actually, both ways, but you're correct.
Although, in PR and other countries, papi is more used as a word for sweetie. And I did not add any gay meaning by the way, just said was weird, or it was to me when I read it.
Now, I'm from South America, not PR (lived there 10 years though) , so I know what you mean. I used to call my father, "papi". Again, no offense, it just sounded weird when I read it, giving the case my 1st is Spanish.
Anyway, thanks for the clarification.
