Not a huge collection and not in bed with someone else?
Who cares. Everyone has some quirk.
If I’m in her bedroom, I am probably not thinking about plushies.
If I like her it won’t matter.
Surprisingly common. Totally ok with me.
I’m just gonna sit over here with my Ghostbusters and Star Wars stuff and mind my own business

My wife’s love language includes plushies. She doesn’t like big expensive jewelry or anything, just plushies.
So, personally I don’t think there’s a problem with it. Many men would probably expect something cute and snuggly in a single woman’s home. And if it matches the decor, even better.
Opinion: A man who makes you feel weird for having a plushie is probably not a partner you’d want to keep. Emotional intelligence and all that.
I’m 40M and have plushies (just a few I display on a shelf) and like to have a special pillow to cuddle when I sleep. Plushie is no different than that IMO
A lot of people have a couple floating around. It wouldn’t register as particularly good or bad.
My wife still sleeps with a teddy bear. It’s fine with me.
Assuming she’s otherwise a normal adult that’s fine.
Here’s a rule of thumb.
Men in their 30’s have no time and give zero fucks about most things unless it involves, concerns, or causes issue for, them directly.
If you’re the plushie hugger, you do you. Be yourself. Do what makes you happy. If anyone can’t handle that, then that’s a them issue. Life’s too short to waste it on appearances.
Bro who cares, everyone is weird
If “she has plushies” is a deal breaker, you are probably the weird one tbh.
Yeah, uh… um.. Hi, I’m 40 and confiscated one of my kids because it’s actually really comfortable to use as a pillow… Grant it it’s in a pillow case because it’s too hot in the summer otherwise, but yeah it’s just the right firmness and I haven’t found an actual pillow that size or that comfortable to replace it…. So literally zero issues here lol
Most adults still like the things they liked as kids to some extent. Everyone collects dumb shit.
How do you view men with Action Man figurines doing gunshot and explosion noises with their mouth?
It’s cute, next question.
As long as she doesn’t make fun of my Green Lantern t-shirt we’re good.
Plushies can watch. What do I care
Theres degrees to this.
A large collection because shes a genuine collector? Fine.
A bunch of labubu because shes easily hooked to fads by social media. Less fine.
A plush toy in her bed because its a bit of nostalgia and its cute. Fine. A few displayed of favourite characters or something, Fine.
20 plushies in her bed every night? Maybe less Fine.
Better questions will be, how would you view a man in his 30s with one or two plushies?
My wife and i are both successful mid 30 yr olds that run our own individual businesses, own a house yadda yadda yadda.
I literally just came home to her surprising me with a plushie of a grumpy turtle, my spirit animal.
I am very proudly fixing it to my hard hat as we speak.
I’m a dude in his 40s and I bought a plush meerkat for me on our last trip to the zoo. He’s soft, and he fits in the crook of my arm perfectly. So some nights he comes to bed with me.
Do you, the right people won’t care. And anyone who does is a jackass.
