Furry Fandom and Drama General -

[renomakicwc]

Ah, the furry fandom.. Being a furry myself, I had the pleasure of coming across all sorts of "questionable" things when I browse through furry image boards and art sites.

The things I had seen... hoo boy..

I'd like to ask what you seen but then again, I can't help but think it's a bad idea for both sides, for you it would be unpleasent memories, for everyone else it's "do not want."

The only babyfurs I know are Pamperchu and Richard Kuta.

Ever heard of Sonmanic?

Inflation is the sexual gratification of inflating someone with air, turning them into a balloon.

Um, Sonmanic is Richard Kuta.

Anyway, I'm pretty indifferent to furries. I'm not much of a fan of furry artwork, but I'm not that bothered by it either.

Oh. I'm such a moron. All I know about the guy is from the ED article, and I probably missed his name.

Seeing as how Sonmanic (Richard Kuta) is mentioned in this along with being mentioned in the "Lolcow you missed/have missed" thread, maybe someone should start a thread on him, allowing us to share our thoughts on the diaper wearing man with a furry Sonic OC and a crushed dream at making a Sonic SATAM fan film.

Inflation just confuses me but one of the ones that really disturbs me is feeder furs. Getting off on the idea of making someone so morbidly obese that they have to rely on you 100% and will never, ever leave you... 'Misery' without the sledgehammer.


On the personal lolcows thread I forgot to mention that this is the semi-sekrit fetish of my personal lolcow. Semi-sekrit because she's part of the whole "tolerant furs" thing where everyone has to be treated with kid gloves no matter how much paedophilia they mix with their beastiality.

I came across one such feeder fur by accident on DA. He wrote stories where they were fed with this icecream that had this special kind of fat in it that once absorbed into the body, could never be lost/burned off.

The feeder/feedee fetish in general creeps me out, what kind of sick person would take pleasure in feeding someone else to the point where they can barely get around? It's like plying an alcoholic with more alcohol, though of course the physical appearance of alcoholism is not as obvious as food addiction.

WAT. THE. FUCK. THIS IS A REAL THING? So it's kind of like that scene in Se7en right?

 

[Niachu]

Putting aside the stigma I don't see the appeal of drawing anthro. Like if I wanna draw a person I'll draw a person and if I wanna draw a wolf I'll draw a wolf. Mixing the two and making the anthros act like any other normal human is kinda...arbitrary? I dunno.

When I was in highschool I developed a very intense dislike for the popular "emo" trend. I created a rationalization for this. People within the trend only belong to it because they lack any discernible personality, and require that association in order to to feign common ground between other people as to form relationships. That is to say, they embodied something that meant nothing so that they could attract people who did likewise. You see this a lot with pretty much every trend. Those who are scene, hipster, Apple fanatics, and yes: furries.

I made a post about MLP a while back in a Chris thread, saying that brony fandom is pure escapism and that the fictional land of Equestria provided a world for unhappy people to escape to. The same idea applies to furries. People who don't fully feel comfortable with themselves develop these fursonas and to help make themselves seem different. It combines an interest in drawing, animals, and individualism into one thing. Niachu doesn't draw anthromorphic art because she may like animals and she may like drawing, but she doesn't feel the need to embody the traits of a cat or a fox to be different.

With anything like this you see a ton of variation. Not all sexualize their creations, not all want to be unique. Some people like, Walt Disney, will draw anthromorphic creatures simply because they want to. While it's possible that Walt Disney was a furry, I'm pretty sure that his success in life earned him happiness, so he would have no desire to embody himself in one of his drawings. There are a lot of artists that draw furry but don't sexualize it, probably because they're conscious that their creatures are fictional, so they have a hard time relating with them beyond the relationship of artist and creation.


I don't particularly dislike furries, but I do dislike people who make themselves all about one thing. It's people who name themselves "FoxVixen", put some skanky anthro fox girl as their avatar, and then post about their imaginary friend and her drawings whenever possible. However, the same thing applies to every group. I knew someone in another community that was so obsessed with Warhammer 40k he'd post in character, especially when someone else posted furry art. Fun fact, typing in big red letters "PURGE THE HERETICS" does not make you cool and it does not make you any better than the people you do not like.

These obsessive people are mentally ill. So are people like Nick Bate (obsession with anal and a particular person), femnazis (obsession with gender and gender equality), obnoxious religious or areligious people (obsession with supernatural superiority), anyone who has ever used the word "cis" unironically (obsession with gender correctness), and so on. Anything can be healthy in moderation. Liking anal and a girl is fine, wanting gender equality is fine, being studied in religiosity is fine, feeling as if you'd be happier as a different gender is fine, but there's a limit. Once you cross that line and start making everything about yourself centric to your obsession, that's when it stops being a hobby and that's when you start being an annoying fucking cunt.

 

[hm yeah]

In college a person I just met asked me if I'm a furry pretty much right when she met me. I went "uh, no". A few weeks later she snuck up on me, wearing a really WEIRD, garish fursuit. This confused quite a few people. An old lady assumed that she was supposed to be a mascot representing something. I laughed and told her that some people just seem to be fine walking around in public looking like a pink gorilla that got thrown in a blender with purple feather boas, black yarn, and lawn clippings. With gargantuan googly eyes.

Anyway, I can find some clever designs of funny animals like Bugs Bunny, or a little midget trickster raccoon wearing a straw hat and playing a banjo, to be appealing, but I don't understand wolfmen, which are like dognoses but covered completely in wolfy fur. Doing person stuff. I don't see what the point of that is, but people can draw what they want. I can draw human faces decently, so I have no "need" to be a furry on the Internet (I think most young artists hide behind furrytism to cover the fact their hy00manz are still...pretty inhuman) but hey, I'll admit it's fun to bang out the occasional stupid pony (2 colors plus buttstamp, what's not to like about that?) or looney tunes thing.

But like American (or worse, French0 animoo, I think the "furry default art style" (used to be Looney Tunes-esque 20 years ago I think) -best seen in the comic panel someone else posted back there - is fucking awful and I'm sick of seeing it. What a dull, unappealing art style. I want to punch them in the face for being drawn with such a tasteless art style.


Oh, on diaperfurs - I'm surprised no one mentioned the politician who got found out for being babyfur! I think his 'sona was a blue panda or something.

Somewhere on the internet, there is a photo of two lovers (from the shoulders down) with tattoos of their babyfursonas, one of whom was a lion cub who had visibly peed his diaper. This guy got that tattooed on his arm forever. He suffered from fairly bad pectus excavatum (sp?) (in which the ribs are deformed and the chest is grossly hollowed out) -- I don't know why I can't find this photo, but maybe it's better if you don't see it.

If it truly does exist, then I wouldn't want to see. I also wonder what kind of tattoo artist would do that. Unless said artist was a baby fur, the tattoo artist had to accept a huge amount of money and possibly a few shots of booze to do that. Drawing a lion cub whose diaper has pee stains.

^Yep, I've seen that picture before. I have to wonder who is the tattoo artist that did these, and the awkward explanation this guy would have to give to him.

Furry shit holds no interest to me, so I pretty much just ignore it. I made the mistake of flipping through the Dalavesta thread, and THAT'S the stuff that makes me sick. Asking those more in the know... do furries at least draw a solid line between yiffart and actually fucking animals?

 

[The Hunter]

It depends. There's anthro yiffart, then there's straight up drawing two dogs fucking. The later of which, I'll never understand, but I do kind of get the first since it takes after the human form. Either way, publicly admitting you get off to cartoon characters fucking is never a good idea for obvious reasons.

It's honestly not the stupidest concept in the world. Just ask the ancient Egyptians.

Most furries I know justifiably consider bestiality animal abuse. (Simple, really - furry characters have human-like intellect, while animals can't consent.) Perhaps even more strongly than on average, just because people tend to equate furries with bestiality. Actually, I didn't even know how horrible this shit could get until I heard horror stories from the more "lenient" side.
