Furries are cool
-
..do you really think the other commenter meant it in that way, though? And is that how fetish is used in common parlance?
Well, I hope so, because I do

There's no assumption in saying "furries are cool", much in the same way one can say "anime is cool" and "robots are cool". It is a statement of opinion, not fact.
If you don't find it cool, just say you're not into it, but don't try to gatekeep someone's enjoyment of something by somehow refuting their opinion that something they enjoy "is cool".

If you flip it around to giving animal features to people, is that fine?
It's fine either way, add long as they can give consent. I'm just not attracted to animals, whether it's a pig head on a human body, or an intelligent pig.

Gross? What's gross about it?
Y’all smell under that suit.

Mostly the related art. The amount of yiff communities I had to block to keep their porn out of my feed was surprising. I don't begrudge them their lifestyle. You want to put on something and have sex with somebody, go for it. I'm not into even 1%. The amount of erotic art that exists is beyond astounding to me. Meanwhile, I struggle to find active communities about Halloween, Lego, and various games I play. Granted, I haven't looked lately for new ones, but the ones I subscribed to previously aren't very active.
Fur suits and furry porn are two different things.

I am sorry if this comes off as offensive to anyone, I'm not trying to be.
I don't get furries.
I also don't have to completely understand their ins and outs and complexities to know they're people who are worthy of respect for being other living people. (or non-people if they identify as non-people? Again I don't understand them as much as I probably should).
Regardless, shout out to all the furries out there who struggle with things I can't even imagine.

wrote last edited by [email protected]Sure, but nearly all of the furry art I've seen has been porn. I get that there are lifestyles and activities that are not porn-related. Either way if you're into it, you do your thing. I'm probably not going to be commenting on their creativity because I find the whole thing a little creepy, but I also wouldn't limit someone's ability to live that way.

You said you find fur suits gross though, those aren't inherently sexual.

Furries aren’t done form of media or object, they’re people.
"Furries" can refer either to people who are part of the furry fandom, or to the furry characters themselves.
It's kinda weird that that's the case, since usually, in furry spaces, the characters are referred to as "anthros" which is short for "anthropomorphic animals".

wrote last edited by [email protected]I’m cool with roleplaying as an animal person, wearing a costume, the fetish aspect, whatever. Live your life.
I just don’t understand why they’ve all standardized to using the same terrible art style. It doesn’t look like a human, an animal, or even a sonic character (which I assume is the root), but a fourth thing. You can tell a furry by how they draw a normal human because of how deep set the habits are. Is there any other group as exclusively committed to an art style?
If I spent that kind of money on a wolf costume I’d at least want it to vaguely look like a wolf.
Edit: If you think these don’t heavily share a style (as compared to anthropomorphic characters from non-furry animated series, for example) then I don’t know what to tell you.

That was someone else. I'm not the original commenter on this comment chain.

Sorry man I'm quite confused, are you saying people who don't like furries are trying to justify furries?
