Dudes with Cats

[Knolan]

FUCK!

How will I ever be confident, successful, courageous or strong without a cock!?

I'm doomed. Idiot.

He said those are considered the traits of masculinity, not the exclusive traits of masculinity.

OT:
That seems a masculine thing to me, at least now...

you got some pussy your life!
YEAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!

Ok, serious now, it is definitely not a masculine pet, it is pretty much the same as having a poodle, it is simply not masculine.

If so, how are they perceived?

Cats are awesome, no matter who has them. I don't see a/the problem.

[Reeve]

Yeah I associate cats with feminity.

Nothing manly about having an oversized rodent as your pet. A tamed wolf on the other hand? Pretty badass.

But hey, that's just my opinion.

I find that most women associate my cat ownership with confidence, caring, etc. It doesn't detract from my manliness, but it makes me into a total sweetie at the same time, which girls love.

Really not sure what i'm going to do here.

Older sister keeps trying to give me their cat. The cat's an asshole to everyone but me apparently. She dropped him off like 15 minutes ago.

But what the hell do I look like, a single black dude, owning a cat?

I'm not even sure how I can make that work when I invite friends over? Hey, you guys wanna see my pussy?



Is men with cats even a common thing? If so, how are they perceived?

Chicks dig cats. 1-2 cats are fine. Once you exceed 3+ it gets into weird/crazy person territory. The amount of cats a person has can be directly related to the level of crazy.

[Mayhem]

Come on, don´t be so mean to bannzoman, that guy has feelings too (well now at least), everyone knows he is gay now, like he literally turned gay the minute he was a single male cat owner.

[Theodarzna]

Idk if cats a feminine thing, I have a pet tortoise? What does that say about me?

To be honest, manliness is like 90% doing whatever the fuck you want and not giving a shit what people think. There is a certain level of just carving your own path and doing whatever you feel like to being a guy.

So you have a cat, its a pet? Plenty of dogs are also girly as fuck.

[Faesroll]

Every single person I know who just has cats living with him is usually a bit..socially awkward. There's this guy at work who's single and the only time he ever talks about his private life is when it's about his cats.

[Karlz0rz]

Cats are at the top of the food chain in their ecosystem, and are fierce as fuck. Why would you be ashamed owning one of the most lethal killers in nature?
In fact, they should make you feel more manly, seeing as this is very important to you for some reason..

That obviously is a big enough sample size.

Confirmed, Bannzoman socially awkward and gay now.

Yeah but that's a person thing, not a cat thing. I used to work with a woman who was the very definition of dull. She didn't have any cats, but she loved to talk about her dogs and all the 'crazy' things they did. Drove me up the wall. I don't think I know any weirdos who own cats, but I've definitely run into a few weirdo dog owners.

[Queen of Hamsters]

I prefer men that own and love dogs, but I wouldn't have a problem with a guy having a cat either. ^^
As long as they don't fall into the "crazy cat person" category, it's all good.

And I've run into plenty of both, as well as weirdo parents that believe their kids are idols to be worshipped by everyone else...

[Thunderball]

Cats are all jerks, just leave them alone and let them do their thing, they will love you later. I guess it's because I'm selfish too. I like dogs too but cats just suit me better. Maybe another day when I have my own property, get married... Yeah, back to reality.

Don't forget Dr. Claw:



Dude wears a fucking guantlet.

Clearly being a male cat owner makes you a super villain.

[grandpab]

Take it to a taxidermist.

[Fenixdown]

I adore men with cats / who love cats. I've never noticed any kind of un-masculine behavior associated with cat ownership by men if one is bothered by that kind of thing *shrug*

Now at least half of the MMO-Champion posters have gone out to get cats. Great job, Crissi.

They also make you a bit communist so I've heard.

Ahah why is that though?

[Mayhem]

They do? Well, @The BANNzoman confirmed socially awkward, gay communist now.

[PizzaSHARK]

She's pretty useless. She lays around all day and only graces me with her presence when she wants food.

Well, yeah, that's what a cat is and does.
