If it weren't for the furry trends, probably. I like the sort of monkey tails the saiyans had (minus the weakness), and that it can just be coiled around their waist to keep it out of the way.
basically this, as long as it was essentially a muscled tail, so i could hang upside down and shit from it, then yeah awesome.

but if it was a nasty reptile tail or some weird dinosaur thing sticking out the back, then no thank you.

A monkey tale would be pretty sweet, I could be using it to hold this beer can right now while I type. Would serve as a lovely auxiliary in carrying items around.

Part of me is going "Hell yeah I want one!"

And then the other half thought about it and remembered Spaceballs, it could lead me into some serious trouble and mishaps.

If the tail got a stinger like a Scorpion tail or contain a hidden organic blade or it's strong enough to lift or carry my weight than maybe. The tail should serve a purpose than being a useless body part.

I'll take an Alien tail, please. I don't care if it makes me look weird, I'll never ever be bullied. Problem, Mr. Gangster? How about I impale you on the tip? Yes, I thought so. You can give me YOUR wallet while you're at it, actually. :p

I wouldn't mind one but I wouldn't go out of my way to get one either. I'll have a DBZ tail please.

Eh. If i got it for free, sure. I could go with a poofy cat tail. I bet my wife would dig it. ((or set me on fire yelling "FURF*G", but thats a scenario id rather not think about))

But if it came at any cost whatsoever, no. I wouldnt take it. I mean, id already have to ruin all my jeans by cutting a hole in the back of them.

Yes in theory... (I had a pretty cool tail as part of a costume I made really. And it seemed about right in terms of size, though maybe it'd be more interesting if it was slightly bushier. Holo from Spice & Wolf comes to mind here.)

The problem with this though is that in reality, biology dictates if humans had tails they'd be pretty ugly.

Why, you ask? Because our closest relatives with tails are monkeys. And we are mostly hairless.

So imagine having a huge monkey's tail (remember proportions here. A typical tail is longer than the body of the animal it's attached to)

But... Without any hair on it. I can't imagine that looking all that appealing. (Cats are cute right? Well have you ever seen what a hairless cat looks like? >_>)

But, I liked my costume tail enough that if it were properly attached and I could actually move it that'd be pretty cool.

So... Yes, if I get to choose what kind of tail.

No if it relates in any way to normal human biology or evolution.

Not really? Too much potential trouble and pain for no real gain.

It would be hard to get used to it, initially; i would likely shut all my doors on it, sit on it akwardly, get in the way in general. Get pulled by annoying kids, get stepped on by passer-by, get sucked into machinery/vaccuum cleaners..

Plus what purpose does it serve? We don't really need it (hence why we lost it).

Depends. Can I make the tail move and grip things? Can I use it to knock people over? Questions like that.

I don't know why but I reaaaaaaaally wanna tail, it's partly why I love Ao No Exorcist so much. Maybe it's just the years I put into DBZ, or maybe because I'm rather monkey-ish anyway. It's not a sexual thing either, like when seeing an anime character that's supposed to be hot with a tail I just don't care that much.

Looks fun though.
