Why do so many people feel bothered about this? It's not like the comunity is associated with a political party or something due to this. Also it's a meme comunity and this is a meme, what did you expect?

Eh. Furry is one of the few punching bags that people feel it's safe to attack nowadays. I've seen some people say that that attitude just a modern expression of homophobia.

I feel if you're still making fun of furries at this point and not just ignoring them and moving on with your life, you need to pull yo ass out of 2005 and get new jokes. That Vanity Fair article was like almost 20-fucking years ago.

Edit: I take that back after looking it up, it was OVER 20 fucking years ago.

I'm confused, maybe I need more backstory? The people in that article called themselves furries, didn't they?

On average day-to-day surfing, yes, totally agreed, but at the same time have you seen the Flashgitz crusade videos? Because, IMO, they're pretty hilarious and I kind of want them to keep going.

I compare the reaction to that Seinfeld episode where George gets a massage from a male therapist and then spends the rest of the ep flipping out cuz he got a mild chub from it. People who freak out don't like that it made them horny-adjacent

It's a shame really. Those people are afraid of exploring themselves in case they find out things they don't want to admit.
