Who's your daddy

The suggestion that the 'daddy' in this case may well refer to a pimp
seems right to me. But can I add another meaning, that of a dominant,
macho homosexual inmate in a prison - see Braly, _On the Yard_ (1967),
Bunker, _Animal Factory_ (1977) etc. The antithesis of the 'punk' whom he
exploits for sexual gratification. A reference to such a figure presumably
rubs in the dominating/humiliating triumphalism that the speaker
presumably wishes to put across.
