Is it normal for a grown man to still have a favourite stuffed toy?

In the process of cleaning I came to the top of my wardrobe, where sits my favourite teddy bear from childhood. He is actually a large stuffed Wombat and his name is Big Wom. Anyhow as I was dusting him and reminiscing about the days of long ago another thought struck me. How many "grown men" (i'm 31) still have their fav teddy bear (or other animal)? If you do, is it kept proudly on display or is it hidden away in that box of childhood memories in the back of your parents garage? Also do the girls out there in net land think this is normal/acceptable or should I put on a pink tutu and affect a lisp?

    As long as it's on display and not played with daily (by you), I would say that's perfectly normal.

    I know a lot of you guys may think it's gay or something to still keep a stuffed animal or something from your childhood, but I think it's sweet and totally normal. Any guy who has the guts to admit they still have a stuffed animal from way back when is more of a man than most of the guys around here anyway.

    I still have a box full of stuffed toys. Girls like men who can connect with their softer side. Just show them that you're still a man and don't care what anyone else thinks of your affection for soft toys.

    Raggedy Andy stayed with me when I was in the hospital at age five. I had pneumonia, and I almost died. He had all of the tests I had. He had all of the shots I had. He took all of the medicines I had.

    I am now 39.

    Raggedy Andy now sits on the top of my dresser next toy wife's lovie, Teddy Bear.

    There are a lot worse things, but doesn't exactly scream "manly." It would be a turn off for me if it were out in the open, but that's just my opinion.

    If it is pink, no way. If it is purple, it is totally normal.

    well i still have a pink teddy from when i was born but that is away in a box so it doesnt get dirty or chewed by the dogs. i think you should keep it but away in a box so you can give it to your kids or grandkids or whatever. just because its a toy, that doesnt mean it shouldnt have sentimental value because you are a guy.
