Very specific question about/for furries

Ex Nazi Furry here (Long story) I think I can help you clear some parts of in your post and I may be able to answer most questions that you may have in the future.


Oh my dear young padawan, so smart and yet so ignorant to the arts of yiffing. Yes, there's porn of people having sex in fursuits (Yes, that's what they are called). There's an entire site dedicated to furries filming themselves engaging in such activities, well that and animations but I've never heard of someone using that site for the animations

This is a common misconception most people have of furries, not all furries are into anthros and some even find them gross. There are different styles of furry out there and every kind has its own denomination, I'll just try and list the four most common ones I can think of, because otherwise I'll spend the entire day here.

First there are the ones that are closer to humans, more often than not only featuring ears and tails. In my days we used to call them nekos or catgirls or dogboys or [insert animals part here]+ boy/girl. Kids these days seem to call them kemonomimi and although they exist and they are considered furries they play a rather small part in the comunity.

The next ones are anthros. I think this part of the comunity are what people for the most part associate with furry and they're by far the biggest part of the comunity. However something important is that anthros are more often than not used inside the comunity to reffer to anthropomorphic mammals aka canines, felines, horses and even elephants.

These ones are the first that I don't think normal people are familiar with; scalies. Although they are similar to anthros in design scalies reffer to reptiles in general, dragons dinosaurs and snakes among other things are on this list.

And last but not least we have ferals. These are other ones I don't think most people know about and I've always wondered why, considering they make around a fourth of the comunity at least. As you have probably guessed they consist of normal animals beautified, more often than not in cartoonish ways and almost always despicted as "cute"

Well in my personal experience all the furries I met have a degree of misanthropism, be it big or small. So I think that's a factor in it? Dissasociate oneself with humanity? I mean most of the furries I knew (Including myself) took the role playing thing very seriously as in "My name is not David and I'm not from California, my name is Ty and I'm a gray fox born in the wild" seriously. Being a furry is almost like living a second life really.

I didn't actually expect a reply that good when I asked. Glad that I did! Guilion , you brought everyone who comes around a bunch of new information just now. I had no idea scalies exist, in fact I was going to mess up really hard in my example up there because I was going to link a picture of a shark-girl; but the amount of people in this fandom is sure to grow thanks to XCOM 2.
So, I think that the reason I'm not a furry myself is because I just never asked around the internet to get together with others, since I really like the kind of art Dorian Cleavenger and others make, painting those gorgeous women with different "assets" on them; as you said people who like this kind of thing don't make for a big part in the fandom anyway. Well, I'll just wait for someone to come up with archnoladies, then. Who doesn't love extra legs? No, don't mention Evil Within.
That feral bit you commented sounded a little weird, which is why I guess it seemed like some secret.
Now, if I understood right, you think that furries who prefer anthro designs have such a level of misanthropy that makes them favor less humane faces, uh? That's one interesting point of view.

try not to get too excited

Balder That is what sophisticated people refer to as "fine art."

Being unsophisticated, I call it "creepy."
