    I'm not sure really, in Mexican parlance that may be the case. In Puerto Rican parlance we use the word to mean anyone who's affectionate, I often hear it used to describe house pets as being cuddly. I almost never hear it as an insult as opposed to the feminine version which is often used in a misogynistic tone. It's got more than one definition.
