meeko the stuffed raccoon: the marilyn monroe of the sex with stuffed animals crowd

I found this article on salon utterly fascinating. While i realize we all have our little fetishes, the sex with stuffed animal crowd doesn’t particularly surprise me or interest me, I do find it interesting that a particular stuffed animal (meeko the raccoon, from the disney film “pocahontas”) has taken the stuffed animal fetish world by storm.

oh, here’s the link: http://www.salon.com/sex/feature/2000/06/19/plushies/index.html

Here is an explanation of the meeko charm, straight from a meekophile:


Topping Galen’s list of preferred partners is the Mattel-made “Meeko,” a cuddly stuffed-animal version of the winsome raccoon film buffs might remember from box-office smash “Pocahontas.” Meeko, Galen tells me, is the stuffed animal of choice on the plushophile scene.

“It’s shaped in a way that it can be used as a pillow, so right there you got a pillow,” Galen offers enthusiastically of the artificial rodent’s overwhelming popularity. I’m listening.

“It’s the softness, the shape and the expression on his face. Also, for those that do put SPHs (strategically placed holes) on him, the seam on the stomach is lined up real well, so the modification is easy,” Galen continues. “It’s the perfect plush!”

(Note: When I called Mattel to inquire further into Meeko’s high standing in the plushophile community, an anonymous Mattel customer service representative explained simply, “Well, he is a cute little guy.”)


Visiting a few websites which cater to this crowd, I discovered that Meeko has entered their lexicon. “meekophile” describes almost every one of them… they all own Meeko. “meekometer” is another… Meeko is now a benchmark upon which all other stuffed animal sex partners are based.

Anyway, here is a link to a picture of the infamous Meeko:

Said link also included pictures of various other stuffed animals in provocative poses. It’s just a stuffed raccoon! Apparently it has struck a chord with a certain underbelly of society, tho.

Anyway, I just thought I’d share. And BTW, i just have a lot of time on my hands, I am NOT into this, not that there is anything wrong with that…

Um…well…he’s not hurting anyone, so I guess it’s okay. Just very odd.

I don’t understand the part about the mascot uniforms. What exactly is he wanting to do with them?

I’ll never be able to go into my Dad’s Beanie Baby room again. Too many questions…

How did you find this? I thought horny teenagers had cornered the market on pillow-humping. I see the evil Disney empire is determined to leave no demographic unexplored. (I can just imagine the marketers doing studies to see how they can shape the stuffed animals to get the most sales out of them, regardless of what they’re being sold for. I know this probably unintentional, but Disney self-promotes itself in every other way, why not nere?)

Heh. I regularly frequent portalofevil.com, so I was aware of this particular fetish, but i also frequent salon.com. The Meeko Phenomenon was what I found particularly entertaining… I found the particular fetish boring, but the fact that Meeko the raccoon has them all worked up very interesting…

This MUST be a joke, or I’m more naive than I thought. Are people actually buying Meeko to slice him up and screw him?

This world is even sicker than I thought. Great story, though :wink:

  • “Daddy? I can’t find my Meeko, have you seen him?”
  • grunt “No, I haven’t seen him, now go away, I’m taking a dump here!”
  • “Daddy, why do you make these funny noises? Are you ill?”
  • pant “No, daddy’s fine. Leave me alone!”

<click>

  • “Meeko!”
    … <puzzled look on kids face> …
  • “Whaaaa!!! Mommy! Daddy is hurting Meeko!”

Great fun for all ages :smiley:

And all this time, I’ve been feeling like a deviant for having fantasies about Pocahantas.

I never thought of it that way. Does this mean it’s ok for me to start spankin it while watching the Little Mermaid again?
