I have always hated categorizing music into small genres that I get all confused with.. Now I also hate categorizing people. We are all the same so please stop this foolness.

Sorry if I gave that impression, I really don't. I know that bestiality is just as unacceptable to most furries as it it to other people, and that not all furries do have a sexual element, but you can't deny that some do, just look at the amount of furry art, you can't truthfully tell me that a lot of it isn't sexualised. Like I said earlier, I have no actual problem with furries, what people enjoy is their own business assuming it's not actually illegal, I just don't like how they some have to advertise that fact as much as they can (yes, I'm a /b/tard, interpret that as you wish). I really don't dislike furries for no reason though, I mean, I was surprised to learn there were some here, but it doesn't change my opinion of those people.

Yes, there are furries who are into bestiality - JUST AS MUCH as there are non-furries who are into bestiality.

It has nothing to do with each other - it's like saying all frenchmen are robbers, if you see one frenchman steal something.

I never did deny that there arent some people who are into drawing sexually when it comes to furry art. You would be suprised that a lot of furries don't think sexually when it comes to this fandom. Or maybe thats just all of Colorado.

*bangs head against desk several times*

Categorizing, stereotypes, judgement... things I dislike when looking at people. Everyones different, people are unique, people have different feelings towards things. We love Avatar, some love Jake, and some Neytiri (yay!) and I've been made fun of for it a lot. Just because I wear Kandi and go to raves means I do ecstasy and take acid and stuff right? Wrong! I've never done a drug in my life. Point is, people need to stop stereotyping and judging others on their looks. Hating furries isn't being loving like the Na'vi... thats just becoming like the rest of this selfish cruel world (not pointing fingers, just stating). Be loving and acceptant of others

Indeed.

Ironic, how many of Humankind's problems are pointed out viciously, and yet they are being expressed openly in this subject.

But I'm not going to keep mentioning Humans. I don't need a ToS civil war on my hands.

I like animals. And? Does that make me a furry? Does that make me part of a stereotype? Does that mean I do nothing but jack off all day while looking at pictures of adorable little kittens?

Many furries, or even just people who like certain animals, do not have fetishes. Even less have sexual attractions. And furries don't wave it in your face at all.

If anything, furry haters wave their beliefs in front of people's faces.
I could give several examples. Don't tempt me.

HNM, if you can find something that's never been sexualized in art, you will have defeated rule 34.

Categories are extremely useful, but one needs to know them first in order for them to be useful, otherwise they are just plain confusing.

And people are not all the same, aside from the fact that we are all human beings, but that's pretty much where the similarities end. If we were all the same, we wouldn't have any problems getting along with one another, but as it has been observed for countless of times, we don't get along.

I don't get why everyone is so quick to assume that those who hates furries are only doing so based on stereotypes. Maybe some people just don't want to hear about it. But then again, those same people can just as easily avoid the furry topics/threads, rather than post "DO NOT WANT" in them. Then again, no need to get all butthurt about it. So they don't like furries.. so what? It's being made into a bigger deal than need be.

Assuming you meant that in a non sexual way, who doesn't like animals?

No one's really getting up in anyone's face about anything; people are either stating their like or dislike for furries.

To Be Honest, I think this thread has shown the views of most members. Lock Please? Unless there's more to discuss on the matter?
