Title: I wear a tail
Post by: FoXTAlL on November 08, 2009, 10:22:20 PM: I bought a fox tail from the renaissance festival and recently I have started wearing it around in public. I've even worn it to my high school. My question is this, is it wrong or stupid that I do? I've kind of made it a normal part of the way I dress. and does anyone else wear a tail? I didn't know who else to ask.

Thanks for the help,
Fox Tail

Wearing a tail in a professional situation, like a job interview, I hope would obviously be a bad idea. But it's just high school.

I've always wanted a tail!!! XD

But anyways, i kinda agree with Zeph... If i'll ever get my own tail (WHICH I WANT SO BADLY) i'd probably only wear it when im home, and not in public... or atleast i would hide it if im in public...

But you should never wear something unless you're prepared to be stared at, laughed at or having cruel words said to you, I say this from personal experience, I have some stuff that would probably fit in an animé convention, and sometimes its hard if you get judged cruelly because of it. Some people (well a lot) don't take to such difference kindly, just a warning.

If you can take that, you should do it! I'll be rooting for you! In all opinions, keep it out of professional situations like Zeph said. I think seeing a person walk round with a tail on would be cute. :3

Post by: Armalite_ on November 10, 2009, 01:36:53 AM: I'd say go for it. Wear what you want where ever you want. But like Xleena and Zeph, yeah, expect some feedback and be prepared to take it. I'm sure you know all about high school drama and all that. Definitely don't wear one in an interview. xD

I don't wear tails per se. But I have worn bizzare things in public before to be funny. If you don't care of what others think of you then what's going to stop you? Have fun.

Post by: ___ on November 11, 2009, 02:47:57 AM: I disagree to a point. Yea, you should express youself and whatnot, but don't go overboard with it. A tail for me would be pushing it a bit, so I wear a collar to school. The point is to be diffrent and maybe get a few questions and whatever. Its ultimatly your choice, because well, its you. So don't get miffed, k? Just my 2 cents. :)

Post by: FoXTAlL on November 11, 2009, 04:13:34 AM: Thanks for the feedback everyone. The biggest response I get is giggles and alot of questions, which is fine by me ^_^ I might post a picture of me wearing it tomarrow.

@ShadoWolf800..... To each their own I guess. I think wearing a collar is more overboard then a tail though. :)

In my freshman year I use to wear my collar all the time.
Most people thought it was pretty cool, others just asked why.
I was known as: "The collar girl."
Haha.

Post by: Alonzorion on November 22, 2009, 07:20:05 AM: Just look at yourself and think of what other people are going to think and then judging by that, wear it, don't wear it! Your choice! Simple.

Post by: Garis on November 23, 2009, 01:30:22 AM: Nah, Your representing who you are and what you like, and if anyone has anything to say about it, then their just afraid to represent who they truely are, here ive got a good story.

Last year on halloween I wore the Assassins creed outfit to school, friends were down with it, random people and teachers? No, but I didnt care.

Post by: Tapeworm on November 24, 2009, 11:20:48 PM: I don't think it's stupid, or wrong... unless it's a really a fox tail.
I have issues when people steal from other animals.
but, I think it's cool that you wear it everywhere, you're breaking away from the normal, which is a good thing.
(It would really make sense if you see the way I dress)

Not to be a grammar Nazi though. XD

I mean, its not even ignorance sometimes. Sometimes, its just plain stupidity. I don't listen to those morons.

Title: Re: I wear a tail
Post by: Alice The Necrofox on December 03, 2009, 06:46:30 AM: You wouldn't get beat up in my school. Alot of people wear crazier stuff than that. A tail would be a little extreme in my school, but ears in a hat or a collar wouldn't matter except to the really popular or pompus kids (and we know they dont count :D)
I don't have a coller, but it would be epic to wear one. If not around my neck, then on a wrist until i got a more friendly territory than the hallowed halls of high school.

Post by: Buddy on December 03, 2009, 06:57:54 AM: Lol, just be glad you only wear one tail. in order to be true to myself if i did get some fur stuff like a collar and such, i would get 9 tails, otherwise i wouldnt wear one at all. I love my 9 black and blue tails and would wear them proudly. Not out in public alot, but mostly with family and friends, and on fun little outings like at the park.

Post by: Soryu/Miayuki Isumi on December 06, 2009, 06:13:07 PM: Heh I wear a big bushy fox tail wolven ears and sometimes a gi to school and it's a -ok cept for the bloody 4-chaners.
Title: Re: I wear a tail
Post by: Edaniel on December 06, 2009, 06:16:36 PM: I don't wear one because in all honesty it draws attention, and I don't like that. If you're not willing to get negative attention, don't wear a tail.
