@randomNPCno3 dude. furry isn’t exclusively NSFW. there is plenty art and furry crafts that are family friendly. furthermore, fur cons typically have a family friendly requirement for all suits worn in public. stop thinking all furries are sexual deviants and maybe unbury your head from the sand when you read 50 shades of gray.

they're literally famous for the large presence of nsfw material in the community

im not saying it's all nsfw but you have to keep in mind that they're associated with nsfw for a reason

besides, why is it ok to run up to mickey mouse and give him a hug but it’s super weird and creepy to see a fursuiter in public?

i've never seen someone wear a fursuit in public

just at themed events

yeah. it’s because the lamestream media picks and chooses what material to showcase. they overemphasize the NSFW content while blatantly ignoring the other stuff which is more predominant if you pay attention

the same as mickey mouse would most likely be at a disney-themed park

people wear their suits in public all the time. it’s because they like to see the smiles it brings to an otherwise dreary world or because it’s sadly the only way they feel able to fully express themselves. furry is such a huge subject that you do it a disservice by simply saying it’s NSFW

i never said the non-nsfw stuff was nsfw

or that it was simply nsfw

the justification of furry = nsfw just because it’s what’s typically showcased via major media outlets is what i’m addressing.

i just said they're known for the relatively large presence of nsfw material in the community

but yeah i get what you mean

furry isn't just about nsfw

it’s become such a major blanket description that completely covers up the actual good these people do in their communities. everything from making kids smile to donating to animal welfare charities gets overlooked because “omg. they draw animals with peepees.” that’s really only one part of the bigger picture.

yes

i agree

i’m not denying that the porn and weird fetishes exist. i know they do. but they also exist in normal non furry communities too. it’s part of the human condition. we all have something that turns us on whether we call ourselves furry or not. it’s kinda silly to ignore the miles of porn shops that existed long before furry was even a widely known thing

i don't think it's “omg. they draw animals with peepees.” it's more like "omg they're zoophiles"

and im not a furry so it could be a misrepresentation

and it's probably not true for most furries

furry doesn’t = zoophile either. not for everyone. i’m sure there are some, but i have yet to meet any. again, that is such a small chunk of the whole community and there is one in particular who was outed as being pretty brutal in that department. no one in the community who knows about it condones that behavior.

did you mean ≠

lol

yeah. can’t do that on a phone and discord removed the slash lol

oh lol

ok

there are more zoophile cases i know of from (until told otherwise) non furries than i personally know of from fellow furries, so to say we’re zoophiles just because we choose to represent ourselves with a cartoon animal is very wrong

yeah

you can't really tell if someone is a zoophile unless they say so though
