Hmmm, I am a 67 year old male and these are my stuffies. The one in the middle was my mother’s. Yes the hamster is wearing a space helmet.
No one is gonna take my Blahaj
Im 19 and I sleep with my Blåhaj :3
(The blahaj keeps me safe from transphobes)
38 and have my stuffed dog and wolf in bed with me. My real dog is jealous, but she's in the bed too.
Reading the comments and didn't expect to feel like the odd one out regarding this. 38, haven't slept with my stuffed animals since probably before I was twelve? Am I strange? I guess I just don't feel insecure without them. 🤷♂️
When I was young I really liked them, right up until my dad made me feel terrible for doing so. I'm pretty sure he was embarrassed by it.
I didn't really think or care about this for a long time, until randomly one time at an IKEA I saw a guy in his mid 20s who just chose a stuffed animal, hugging it and smiling. His family was with him, and they were smiling and supportive. When I got back to the car I couldn't stop crying because the only response I ever got from my family was being yelled at or mocked. I may even have cried while writing this, so perhaps I'm still a tad upset.
My wife really likes stuffed animals however - and we have a raccoon that comes in the bed sometimes. The raccoon also came to a music festival with me once:
it's all fun and games until you start wearing them
Then it gets better, ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
