Male, and it's perfectly fine. The idea that men have dogs rather than cats is subscribing to the idea of men as hardcore manly-men with hardcore dogs that bow to their every command. Personally, I love my cat. Dogs are irritating, hyperactive attention whores, constantly needing your attention and approval even if their pursuit of it makes you annoyed or unhappy. Cats take a while to form a bond, but once they do, they stick by you, always wanting to curl up on your lap, but perfectly content if you take them off. I highly prefer cats.

No srsly how are cats not manly. They spend their days sleeping, killing, cuddling, mutilating and staring condescendingly at things.

Here's my impression of a dog "omg where is my master!? AROOOOOOOOOOOOOO" the whiny little basterds can't live without receiving periodic buttlove from whoever they perceive as their "alpha." Whereas cats could care less if you died, they'll just eat you and move on.
Well said.

Anyways I own catgirl. Is that not manly?

It's like owning a small dog. It's just pretty... girly. Makes me think of Paris Hilton and all I can see is the guy walking down the road with the cat or dog in his 'man bag'. I think the reaction you received was unfair, but saying that, they only said what a lot more people would have kept to themselves.

There's nothing wrong with it. I'm not saying that. Thinking about it, there's nothing strange about it. But people who own cats generally:
a) Own a load of them and are social outcasts eg Simpson's Mad Cat Lady
b) Speak to their cat a lot and don't care much for people eg Austin Power's Doctor Evil
c) Are Catwoman.

Imagine your face here. This is how a lot of guys will see you when you tell them you own a cat.

I'm a straight man, and I love cats. Sometimes more than I do dogs, or at least my hound. I swear that dumb thing was hit on the head with a 9 iron as a puppy.

You sir, personified my own cognitive leanings towards felines in the top line.

Because I LUV TEH KITTIES AND THEY DO STUFF WITH THINGS THAT IS FUNNY!!1

Plus you can make them slide into walls by dragging a bit of string on a hardwood floor.

I like cats. They tend to manifest a deeper personality more often than dogs.

I mean, I like dogs, but cats are just so much more.. Well, colorful.

Tell those fuckers that at least your cat doesn't get ass-raped by the other dogs.

Okay, so a few weeks ago I was chatting with some friends at work and the topic of pets came up. Everyone talked about their dogs or lack of pets, and then my turn came up - I told them I had a cat, and the mocking commenced.

A few days later, I heard some girls at the pub talking about these guys they dated, and they laughed over one example of a guy with a cat, both agreeing that it was weird for a guy to have one. "He's ******," I believe they said specifically.

Later again, I was talking to this girl at another pub, and told her I had a cat - she also told me that it was kinda weird for a dude to own a cat, but "at least it's not, like, a ferret or rat or something like that."

So here's my question to you, Escapees - is it really that weird for a guy to own a cat? Tell me your gender and whether you think it's weird or not. If you think it is, why?
Mate, my ancestors worshipped cats...

I like cats myself. They cover up their shit, eat relatively little and live longer average lives than most other pets do. They're also much more independent and quiet than dogs are, and don't require exercise, brushing, washing, etc.

Besides, cats are lean, smart, fast, stealthy killing machines, who enjoy torturing their victims before they eat them.

I believe this man may have solved the "comeback" problem that we male cat-owners face.

Dogs need someone to boss them arround, cats boss you arround instead.
Cats are smarter in my eyes, simply because they don't blindly follow orders or need to be learned how to behave. If a cat doesn't get food, he'll hunt it, a domesticated dog simply waits and starves untill his boss gives him food.
A cat has his own personality and a dog mimics that of his owners.
Just look at any "Dog whisperer" show, you'll see that they never change the dog itself directly, but through changing the behaviour of the boss.
So as a man, i'm damn proud to be owned by a cat!

I don't know anyone who bring their cat around town like Hollywood halfwits, it's not something the average cat-owner does.

That's quite a generalization, and it's very untrue. :)
People with cats are not that different from others, and if they were, it wouldn't be in a bad way.

I fail to see how owing a cat could possibly be representative of sexual orientation. That said I don't like cats very much and I am not homosexual, but if I did like cats my sexual orientation would remain unchanged(OBVIOUSLY!).

All my ex's have had cats, if anything it's a good thing cause it shows they can care for an animal and like them as much as I do. Guys with Animals > Guys without in my opinion (obviously the opinion of someone allergic to cats would be different)

Those girls are shallow assholes. Cats are great pets. If anything it shows those guys are caring people. I wonder what they think'd of my pet.



The chilean rose tarantulas are docile, easy to look after and mine is happy to crawl up me and sit on my shoulder. They're not the evil little attacking fiends everyone thinks.

Male. it doesn't have to be weird, but there different kinds of catpeople, people who look at their cat as a person (or worse, as friend) and people who look at their cat as a pet. The first group are weird and the second group is ok. Btw, i have a cat myself and i treat it as a pet not as a person.

I'm male, and horribly allergic to cats, which is a cruel twist of fate because there's no other kind of pet I'd rather have.

And who cares what they think, right? It's your life and your choice and if they can't accept it then it's only their own intolerance to blame.

I'm a guy and I have two cats, had a dog.
I honestly don't understand this whole deal where "guys can't own cats" in some peoples minds.
