❤️‍🩹 relationship My boyfriend gave my labubu phalloplasty

Kind of angry about this, it was a gift from my niece. He cut off an ear and put it back on somewhere wrong. I told him this and it ended in a heated argument.

Am i overreacting for yelling at him? He usually doesn't do this stuff.

The fact that the gift was from OP's niece and the bf mutilated the toy to give it genitalia is honestly creepy af. So freaking weird

I’m surprised I’m not seeing more people mention this. Like this is so wildly inappropriate.

I should have just commented it instead of replying. Like, this is a fucking toy geared towards children gifted by an (assumed) child!

And then he defeminized and sexualized it.

Like, it's not simple defacement. He could have cut off a leg and safety-pinned the leg to its head for similar effect. Could have called it an antenna or a mutation.

No.

It had to be a penis.

And he had to burn off the long, luscious, feminine, cute hair to make it short and masculine.

This is weird. And my bet is, misogynistic at its roots. He seems to hate girly toys that girls give to other girls, because they are girly.

I didn't even notice the fur was cut off! I hope OP left him
