Is it weird to wear elf ears in public?

[ProbablyOatmeal]

I would never really consider my outfits “weird,” but sometimes I do slip in a pair of purple contacts or Dolls Kill platform heels. I have two pairs of gorgeous, detailed elf ears I got on Etsy, but I’d like to wear them for more than just cosplays or Halloween.

Is that too weird, even when paired with a nice outfit, 6-inch heels, full face of makeup, etc?

Is it something you regularly see other people doing? No? Then yes, it's weird.

Weird doesn't necessarily mean bad, it just means people don't normally do it.

You do you.

[ProbablyOatmeal]

Well, the question is if it’s too abnormal, not just weird in general— a personal opinion.

[Pamina]

Well, you're basically wearing a costume in public in everyday life.

[ProbablyOatmeal]

Good point, lol!

[Pamina]

I mean, if that's what you want to do, more power to you. I'm just letting you know how the people around you will perceive it.

[ProbablyOatmeal]

Yeah and that’s exactly what I’m asking, so thank you!

[Danielson3323]

Haha nah that's not weird.

[ProbablyOatmeal]

Sarcasm?

[Danielson3323]

No no sarcasm. I mean it. I don't think it's weird. I don't judge anyone for what they do. I thinks it's cool lol

[ProbablyOatmeal]

Oh okay, lol! Just making sure! :)

[Danielson3323]

You do what you want. Don't worry about what anyone else says. Stay yourself. It makes you unique.

[ChocolateCheesecake]

Heck no let your weird flag fly girlfriend

[swettannie]

do what you want to be happy !

[ProbablyOatmeal]

I appreciate the thought, but happiness to me involves not getting dirty looks in public.

[swettannie]

it's not dirty !

[ProbablyOatmeal]

Haha, I mean “dirty” as in just a generally disapproving look. I’m used to them every once in a while, but there’s a point where it’s too often for comfort.

[swettannie]

honestly, do you really care if what you like to wear is not appreciate by some people? it's your life, do what you want

[ProbablyOatmeal]

I know, but my mindset comes from an artist who hopes to work in the art industry sometime soon, so I don’t want to get too comfortable going against the general’s opinions. I do really respect your thoughts, however! 💖

[SamtheDnDgirl]

Go for it, who cares?

[Reddwolf]

Not unless you can pull off the look

[topher818]

Nah i think it would be hella cute

[RyanAmaral]

You do you.
