(Asking is perfectly fine.)
Me and my dad went to a con near us (furry.) and he said he saw almost nothing cool except the costumes, he sees people that drink and party and do the nasty.
he thought it was all about the costumes but i convinced him otherwise. I just don't want my dad seeing me as a guy who does that. It's just hard on my emotions.
(We had fun at the con though. I will go again next year.)
