Those flukes look really small on them.

[Mermaid Mystery]

I'd kill to see Eugene in a tail tbh

I think it's a case of, most fabric tails are designed with women and children in mind. Most men aren't as.....delicately boned.

Seriously though, I saw the article. I found it cute and amusing. Might be best next time to pick a bigger group of mermen with different tails :)

I don't know. Me and Sarina were talking but it kinda just seems like Buzzfeed is playing on the current craze... Likely leading to the increase of public pool bitches...

i will ill say after watching though that the guy in green seemed to do a pretty good job of swimming in his tail though.

"Likely leading to the increase of public pool bitches..."

Does it matter? If people see something they think it's fun let them do it.
By calling people bitches they probably aren't going to indulge themselves in the hobby.

[AnnaAbyss]

I agree with Yulia, tbh. The more the merrier.

Buzzfeed is always playing on current crazes. Hence the name BUZZfeed.

If people see the video and want to get tails to swim in, it doesn't make them a public pool bitch, it just makes them new to our community. Every single person on this forum was new to mermaiding at some point. Why not be welcoming?

[Mermaid Wesley]

agree

[Mer-Crazy]

I know I'm personally not against more mermaid friends <3

I'm sorry guys, I guess I didn't explain myself properly or come across very nice. I love seeing new people join the community and how welcoming it is.
I guess it just irritates me that people are only here to ride the trend and not out of genuine interest.

[Mer-Crazy]

Yeah... I can't wrap my head around people like that. Those who just do something because everyone else is doing it.

Yeah exactly. That's what I don't like and what I was trying to say. :)

[Cerulean]

Really cute. I think my favorite parts were seeing how much they genuinely enjoyed it and the whole, "Ohmygosh I actually did it!" feeling that I know everyones experienced. That and the casual observation that Ariel was uber lame to want to have human legs, but thats a given.

Has anymer seen the Buzzfeed Girls do the same thing? I've included the link. I actually liked this one a lot more. The girls were just too funny! :D

[PearlieMae]

Finally got to watch the video with sound...I thought it was cute! I think that pool must have been pretty cold, youcould hear it in their voices...not bad for a first tail swim, I'd say. I thought the preproduction on the video could have been planned out better, though. Good premise, meh execution. But hey! Mermen!
