As long as theres some chicks within a category its alright. Unfortunately the creepy dudes outweigh them immensly.
I've seen at least one fursuit yiff video that was pretty hot.

JBKalso 2012-02-21 03:07:17

It was just very passionate and the suits weren't poorly crafted.

JBKalso 2012-02-21 03:14:54

I'm just lucky in a way I can find rare awesomness in typically awful things. Or unlucky as Ill never find anything else similar.

And irl yiff is always hot. That's why all you can hear is fans blowing.

JBKalso 2012-02-21 03:17:34

The suits are hot inside. Get it?

JBKalso 2012-02-21 03:25:42

I think the furries are cool and all for fun and theyre mostly pretty nice people. I'm only in it for the yiff art. So you know where I'm at in this. The roleplaying is fucking creepy but an attractive woman wearing paws/ears/tail is a turn on.

All fandoms have the people that are goddamn weird. And the media seems to excel at finding them over the more normal ones.

ObviousQuark 2012-02-21 03:41:32

And that's how TLC is still clinging to life!

ObviousQuark 2012-02-21 03:44:34

Also, I heard they are going to feast on the newly created brony community with a special episode of "My Strange Addiction". Seriously. I'm not so sure I'm happy about telling my parents I'm a brony, because they'll probably see it if it comes out.

Also, I better get my message out to my school before the media fucks the bronies over.

-Most people doing it publicly are trolls or joking. The rest, big deal they're into exhibitionism.

-A lot of people can't budget money well, that usually comes with age. But it's also comforting to people in those sorts of situations to continue their normal life and in doing so dull their anxiety.

-What's so wrong with gifting porn to someone? It's just like any other gift.

-Fursuits may turn you off, but so what? It harms no one. If they want to buy & wear one and can afford to then great. How is it wrong to have sex between to consenting adults?

-Any group has drama. Especially groups comprised of primarily teenagers/ young adults. Assumptions such as...? It's natural for us to assume things. It's how we get most of our information.

-Xenomit covered the bestiality part, so I'll reply to your response. "Everyone else is ignorant about furries, so I'm going to be an apologist who spares himself at the cost of demonizing the rest of the furries." You shouldn't feed into ignorance like that.

karlu20 2012-02-21 08:43:28

Continued here because I'm on my PS3 and it has a painfully short character limit.

-You also said in a reply earlier that you hate when the media takes a few people and says the whole group is that way. You just did the same. A lot of what you said was extremely generalized and comprised of exclusively anecdotal evidence.

-I'd argue the main reasons furries are given a bad name are as follows:

~Intolerance. "Ew you like /what/?"

~Misinformation in the media. "I saw something on TV about a furry. He wore this creepy fursuit and then raped his dog and killed his best friend. What the fuck is wrong with those people?"

~Apologists who would feed into that ignorance instead of dispelling it. "Yeah, that's fucked up. I don't get why some furries do that. It's disgusting. I only like the art."

~Drama.

*two.

Fuck me, I need to proofread more.

TruBluFoxx 2012-02-21 17:07:25

Wait....I'm pretty normal....

also, @Karlu, I know every group has drama, but it seems a large number of furries seem to blow it waaaaay out of proportion. I have two 'friends' who's actions are attestant to that statement.

karlu20 2012-02-21 19:02:30

@Tru. Anecdotal evidence. Though, I'm not debating the drama bit actually occurs. But I don't think it's because they're furries. Our age group is just more drama-filled.

@Furry. I said anecdotal. It means life experience. Pretend for a minute every girl you'd met was an asshole. If you extrapolated that to mean all or most of us were assholes you'd be using a highly flawed line of reasoning based on anecdotal evidence. The ones you meet aren't a random sample, nor are there enough to accurately extrapolate it onto others.

Yes you addressed more than the media did, but you used the same techniques such as anecdotes & over generalisation.

I'm not arguing that some furries don't seriously cyber publicly. But that's a subsect who are also exhibitionists. Not the majority.

I don't mean in an addiction way (though it can be). I mean if your world is crumbling around you & on your way to becoming homeless people tend to continue to live above their means to make the inevitable seem less likely. This is a common

karlu20 2012-02-21 19:10:00

thing for humans to do. Often without realizing they're doing it.

-Yeah, entitlement is a flaw. But not one unique to/ overly represented in furries.

-"just don't wear oversized suits and post the vid on the internet." But they /consented/ to do that. It's their kink. And you don't have to watch or participate any more than you would for 2g1c.

Also. Sorry for answering somewhat out of order. Sort of preoccupied. Also, also. Debates are fun. <3

poinl 2012-02-21 20:15:19

you just cant take it to the next level :P

karlu20 2012-02-21 20:25:22

So? Why tell them they can't/ shouldn't practice what they wan't because some people will take it the wrong way? If we went by that you'd be secretive about being a furry etc. and I'd be secretive about being a sadist etc. Better to inform than conform, no?

I know furries can be any age, but the people who both identify as a furry & are actively involved in the/ a furry community are primarily teens/ young adults. And that age group is extremely drama filled.

textman1 2012-02-21 21:25:04

You know, how can people like you justify killing and eating animals, but not having sex with them? It just doesn't make much sense to me. Technically humans are animals too, so I guess anyone who has sex is automatically committing bestiality.

karlu20 2012-02-22 02:08:38

I /think/* textman is saying if you're okay with eating and killing animals you should be okay with fucking them. And then tried to use 'but humans are animals' to bastardize the definition of beastiality.

But this is your blog, your problem to deal with. Arguing with someone who'd rather muddy an otherwise potentially pleasant debate by deliberately altering an established definition to suit his purposes doesn't really interest me beyond the need to always be right.

*It's 2am and my ability to focus/ care has gone to shit.

karlu20 2012-02-22 10:52:11

Fair enough.

RadienX 2012-02-22 23:11:08

i dont do fursuits, i dont spend tons of money on the art, and i dont try to kill or fuck animals, and here i am, a furry.

also, one of my friends found out that a recent study showed that there are more non-furries into bestiality than there are furries into it.

i would be asking the question 'why do people associate furries with bestiality in the first place anyway'. but thats just me.
