I’ll confirm this, my english mother in her 70s who happily uses swears of all strengths up to and including fuck used to screw her face up in a scowl if you dropped a cunt in conversation, but now doesn’t bat an eye

first you see anthropomorphic cartoon animals and find them appealing, then the internet shits in your brain and makes you want to fuck them. after that you start pretending to be one. if somebody intervenes at this point or your remaining sense of shame kicks in you may be able to recover, otherwise your condition will deteriorate until you are found dead under a bodily fluid sodden pile of threadbare animal toys with holes cut in the crotches

it’s not weird but it’s also not weird if he isn’t into it. amongst my own friend group there’s some with siblings or cousins who come along to the pub etc but there’s also others who keep their friends compartmentalised, who keep in touch with school friends, work friends, family members, whatever groups entirely seperately

so ask, you have nothing to lose, but don’t take it personally if he doesn’t like the idea
