User blog:WestKoreaBestKorea/Furry Stereotypes

Hej!

It's another quality shitpost by me, your favorite liberal furry

This peice of text is a masterpeice

I originally wanted to talk about American stereotypes

But I decided to save that for later

After this maybe I'll do East Asian stereotypes?

I know some of these topics are rather delicate (you have been warned)

I just want to clear up some negative feelings

Please don't come here to hate and be an arsehole about this

Thank you

Nº 1: We're all gay

Idk where this came from, and I'm too lazy to research that much. If I remember correctly, there are more gays in the Furry Fandom than most other fandoms, but I think it's because Furries are more liberal when it comes to things like gay rights, as they themselves were probably shunned, thus they are more tolerant. Out in the general population, about 5% identify as gay, and 90% straight, while in the Fandom you see an almost even distribution.

Nº 2: We all have fursuits

You don't need a fursuit to be a furry

You don't need to make comics to be a Polandballer

One thing that prevents people from getting fursuits is cost. Some fursuits can cost >10,000 USD, which is rather a large cost. After all, those things aren't made in China.

Nº 3: We're all depressed and suicidal

Just like Sweden, we aren't all depressed and suicidal (I may be an exception). In fact, Furries are generally happier overall.

Nº 4: We all are isolationist and stay 100 km away from the nearest person 


 * Ahem*

Then explain all the conventions that attract thousands of people in one building complex.

That stereotype is almost as bad as a Flat-Earther's rebuttle.

Nº 5: We have sex in fursuits

Ah, I just love media! Donald Trump's twitter feed, F A K E N E W S, and of course the endless depictions that our conventions are endless sex parties! Fursuits are very expensive, and human reproduction is... rather messy. Fursuits aren't just things you wear, to some they are quite literally peices of art. To spend thousands on a fursuit just to have sex is not only a very outlandish idea, but should you buy a fursuit from a fursuit maker, extremely insulting as well. Imagine using one of Da Vinci's paintings as fuel for a bonfire. I highly doubt there is a single fursuit maker who'd willingly spend months and thousands of dollars just to fulfill your sexual desires.

Furry's about community, not sex. Really, grow up people.

Don't hate

I won't respond to shitty comments
