They’re not wrong you guys are just mean/the loudest minority of Furry culture is the worst and is not representative of furries as a whole
I’m adding, yall remember when people tried to GAS a hotel of furries.
Yall remember how most of them are harmless doofs that just wanna have fun and raise money for charity.
Yall remember how at Genericon IN MY STATE a bunch of furries at the rave stopped COLLEGE STUDENTS FROM THE CAMPUS FROM KIDNAPPING MINORS FROM SAID CONVENTION
Look there’s a lot of bad parts, that’s unavoidable with a Fandom that massive, but there’s a lot of good too and we need to stop judging fandoms by their worst.
Preach
They also pay fairly for commission work, support art and artists, and have taken concrete measures, far more than many other subcultures, to aggressively eject neo-nazis from their community.
I mean, I don’t have to like or understand the sexual component, but it’s also none of my business. So I’m cool with them on the basis of that other stuff.
I actually personally know a fair number of furries. I work with at least a few. One is a good friend and we hang out regularly.
The sex thing is a little creepy to me, NGL, but some of my sex stuff is creepy to the few that have had those discussions with me. (Not in any sort of flirting or “wanna bang” type of way, but more of a “hey, I was curious about…” type of way.)
But honestly? They’re some of the most awesome people I’ve ever met. Most of them are big into charities, they firmly believe in paying well for the work they have done – whether its an art-type commission or regular job-type work, and have incredibly diverse interests.
