Galacticruler Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Might be also handy to point out that Furry(ism?) is not a sexual fetish, that would be yiffing if I remember my Sociology A level correctly :SThis man is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatisthisidonteven Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 It would be biased, that is why I posted it...? People have the right to express themselves in whatever (Legal) way they want. I doubt it would turn into anything sexual, after all that is against the rules. Might be also handy to point out that Furry(ism?) is not a sexual fetish, that would be yiffing if I remember my Sociology A level* correctly :S*As a subculture is was to be studied comparatively with other subcultures and sadly yes did go into that much detail...Ok, so you believe that you're a fox or whatever?That's just called being delusional. It might not be as bad as a sexual fetish, but you should probably still seek professional psychiatric help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sal_vager Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Ever been to a costume party?Or a convention where people dress as videogame characters?So some people who dressed as animals made it a "thing", they were probably mascots for something, and it spread.People feel better when they are part of a group, safer, and they feel stronger as a group when facing adversity, such as the criticisms of others.They hang out and they have fun.And no-one said you had to dress up too...

And it's just that the majority of furries I've met have not been that sort of person. You'd be hard pressed to find a furry community that isn't full of the weird ones.But anyway, I think this argument is over. If the furries want to post here then I have no problem - Better they post here than everywhere else anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROFLCopter64bit Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 To all those people who are hating on the furrys/bronies/whatever, just take a glance at this.I personally don't like furrys or bronys, but I don't publicly express the fact.But I'm always civil about it. I don't go saying that every furry/brony should not even be here. I accept them into the community as an equal person.I am an avid Adventure Time fan, and love it. I assume this is how Bronies are with MLP as well, so I can sort of understand them.But enough of the hating on other social groups. This isn't any better than hating on homosexuals. I hope this can stop forever now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BossSquirrelz Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 But enough of the hating on other social groups. This isn't any better than hating on homosexuals. I hope this can stop forever now.You are correct.As far as I know, furry(ism?) is simply people dressing up as animals and appreciating animals. Many of them don't even own suits. I've yet to encounter any furries that have a 'sexual fetish' with anything.Stop discriminating, people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicpenguin Posted May 2, 2013 Author Share Posted May 2, 2013 Dude, Very few furries have a "Sexual fetish" Furry fandom is just people who like animals and feel like they have some animal in them. It's were you can be what you want to be. Culture has just made us look like perverts. Now stop hating on furries and go away > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no problem with furries as long as they stay in their threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

llamatoes Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Furries Are a semi-fetishtic online community. They draw/dress up as anthropomorphic animals, like I mentioned earlier, it is semi fetishtic, go on tumblr or google images, turn of any safety, and type in furry, that is the fetishtic bit, the rest is just people who are into animals (not all in that way) being quite a bit gay, I can see where they are coming from.
