The Internet hatred for furries always bothered me. I’m not into it, I think it’s weird, but so what? I think BDSM is weird too, but we don’t treat people into BDSM like we treat furries- as if they’re some sort of disease. I’ve met a few working at sci-fi/comic cons over the years and they’ve always been really nice, decent people. They just have a kink. Lots of people have kinks.

I think it's the fact that furries tend to bring their kink public. I have not consented to engage in your sex games. If he showed up to a ceremony in leather and a ballgag no one would be ok with it, but the fur suit is the equivalent.

I mean, no. It’s really not.

I do get what you’re saying and generally agree otherwise. That one was just a bit much.

I agree. I’ve seen furries in public and while I find them odd, I never saw any of their costumes as inherently sexual.

They do, though, and therein lies the non-issue.
