The whole furry thing is creepy as hell. It’s weird. Wanting to have sex with anthropomorphized animals is not a thing that should be normalized.
And it’s even creepier when they add things like “kitten” or showing anthropomorphized animal kids.
And thank you to Unruffled [they/them] / Flatworm7591 @lemmy.dbzer0.com for this sane and reasonable response.
And thanks to recursive_recursion who seems to be an alt of Flatworm for continuing that sane and reasonable response. Note that in over 1,400 comments here I’ve never once said a single word against trans people. Not once.
It really bothers me when people lie about racism. So many people really do experience it so much in life, and lying using false racism accusations as a sword and shield to make other people look bad and make themselves look like the victim is demeaning to every real instance people suffer.
Hopefully one day this person realizes that lying about transphobia for the same reasons does the same thing.
Not all furies are sexual we actually have a large asexual subgroup so some just like the cute art. But a lot of us also like roleplay fantasy and sex.
Thank you for a real answer finally!
To elaborate the fandom is basically a large open and mostly supportive community of neurodivergent people. I don’t have a source but i’d wager that over 80% of us are on the autism spectrum. Yeah we are weird, we know, we do not care. Its nice to be able to express yourself more freely through a character or avatar.
