    Why do people say plush are for little kids? It is like every time someone finds out I collect pokemon and digimon plush they laugh because I'm apparently too old for it.
    What are your opinions on how people see plush collectors?
    It doesn't matter if you are a collector or not, all opinions are welcome.
     
    imo someone who won't respect your interests isn't worth being friends with. I personally have no problem with them, I have a bunch myself, and I'm not planning on getting rid of them
     
    I'm a plushie collector. People who say it's for kids is full of shit. There is nothing wrong with having a collection. I'm always getting plushies. It doesn't matter what it is. I have plushies from Disney Junior. I even have a little Maleficent plushie. I also have TY Beanie Babies from when we lived in Maine that I got there. These are all very valuable to me as well. I have favorite plushies like my Espeon plushie right now. Her name is Mina. Plushies are the kind of friend that are always there when you need a hug ASAP. They never betray you. They never let you down either. They are always there for you no matter what you are going through.

    So, the people saying plushies are for kids need to stop. It's just like how they say Pokemon is for kids as well... yet you have a dozen older players like myself that play. I don't get what goes through people's mind. I guess they think people who own stuffed animals are pedophiles. *rolls eyes*
     
    I'm always calledchildish and stupid for collecting plush, but it's something I like to do, so I just ignore them.
     
    Nothing wrong with plush stuff. It's not like they are toys. I use them for decoration.
     
    Shamelessly collecting Pokemon Plushies and I don't care about what other people might think, I don't see anything wrong with it.
     
    My mother used to have an issue with my ever growing collection of plushes, but for the last couple years, it has died down.

    She eventually came to accept that I hoard plushes and then I came around to realize that they were taking up 3/4 of my bed so I decided to keep those that had memories attached to them (i.e. gifts from others).
     
    i say do what you want as long as you're not creepy about it. im an adult and i still have my plushes from when i was a kid. i don't think it's weird. theyre sentimental and nostalgic, and i did recently buy a ninetales plush from a convention. so, youre not alone in that regard.
     
    my honest perspective is that it comes off as silly/immature, but do you regardless
     
    Even I own a few plushies! And they're all Official Pokemon Center variety!

    My fave is my Pachirisu! n.n
     
    I think there's nothing wrong with it. I've been in three Pokemon Centers in Japan and have seen adults buying Pokemon plush regardless of a personal collection or as a gift, even straight guys are into it. They're all cute and good to look at.
     
    Being "too old" for something is a stat of mind. Don't listen to people who tell you you're "too old" for something.
