DaftyduxWhat is something you dont care to understand or "get"?
owenfromcanadaFurries. No hate, just not even remotely interested.
forestbeastsI’m a furry and even I don’t get most furries, haha!
Like, I’m here to be an animal. I heard “people who like to be animals” and went “whoa, sign me up!” and it turns out a lot of furries DON’T like to be animals, they just… pretend to be animals but “oh that’s a character not really me” and they still consider themselves human…?.. also they’re only half-human-half-animals, not actual animal shape either?.. I don’t get it
turns out most of the actual “I’m just an animal” animals are the therians instead (once I found them I decided I’d be both). I’m still a non-character, non-anthropomorphic (the furry jargon for normal animal shape is “feral”) furry though, and the anthro furries can just deal. :3

Do you not consider yourself to be human?
Nope! I’m a wolf! :3
I’m trans, but for species instead of gender. Yeah that’s a thing. 🐺

Don’t you think this kind of trivializes what transgender people go through? Saying you can be trans for species sounds like some sort of mockery of transgenderism
𝄞 Inkstain (they/them)𓆩 𓆪I used to think that, but then I realized human brains are kind of a mess so if weird things happen it’s fine as long as nobody’s hurting themselves or someone else
If that’s what they feel good for them, validity isn’t a pie and more for a weird niche group isn’t less for the rest
And if they’re trolling you’re failing responding to trolls 101 (hint: you don’t respond)
