The whole furry thing is creepy as hell. It’s weird. Wanting to have sex with anthropomorphized animals is not a thing that should be normalized.
And it’s even creepier when they add things like “kitten” or showing anthropomorphized animal kids.
And thank you to Unruffled [they/them] / Flatworm7591 @lemmy.dbzer0.com for this sane and reasonable response.
And thanks to recursive_recursion who seems to be an alt of Flatworm for continuing that sane and reasonable response. Note that in over 1,400 comments here I’ve never once said a single word against trans people. Not once.
It really bothers me when people lie about racism. So many people really do experience it so much in life, and lying using false racism accusations as a sword and shield to make other people look bad and make themselves look like the victim is demeaning to every real instance people suffer.
Hopefully one day this person realizes that lying about transphobia for the same reasons does the same thing.
Bud, anyone who spends a lot of time on the internet is going to see an awful lot of images of sexualized anthropomorphized animals. It’s not me extrapolating. Unlike pictures of gay men fucking it’s not a thing you need to go to a specific type of site or forum to see. It’s the impression being put out there. I’m not the one putting that art all over the place. I’m simply being honest at the impression most people likely have of it.
If you walk in to any public place with a group of adults and ask them what they think about furries I bet it will be something about sex and being creepy. It’s not something I’m pulling out of my ass here. Literally any time I’ve been out in public with people and that topic somehow came up it was universally concluded to be creepy and weird.
Clearly you’re extremely defensive of it and don’t like my being honest. Ok. You don’t have to talk to me. Enjoy your life.
I’m sorry, are you serious?
You scroll down /r/all or something and see tons of pictures of gay men fucking? Because I don’t. Pictures of sexualized anthropomorphized animals, however, I see fairly often.
Uh. Yeah dude, I do. There’s a fuckload of queer content on there, and you for SURE do not need to go to “a specific type of site or forum to find”. This entire argument is based on your anecdotal experience and wow, turns out that’s not exactly representative of reality, lmao.
It would be a bit difficult for me to form my personal opinions based on your life experience instead of my own.
(Ooo, cute false dichotomy!)
Anyways yes, that’s why anecdotes really shouldn’t be used to justify hate.
No false dichotomy, just the only way people can form opinions.
“people can only form opinions is through experiences” is not the same thing as “anecdotal evidence”
(edit: formatting oopsie)
I’m tired of bickering with you. You don’t have to agree with my opinion. I don’t care how you feel about it.
