Semantic quibble OP.
"Furry" refers to anthropomorphized animals.
It causes confusion to use it to refer to 100% humans who are fans of drawings of them.
"Furfan" makes more sense, which is the distinction I use.
We don't know that for sure TBH, there could be furfans amongst IT just as there are furfans here.
It just doesn't seem like a key issue to draw distinctions on.
If you're a fan of Lola (a furry) you are a furfan.
You don't need a "fursona" to be a furfan.
That's just some kind of common thing they do, like how some of my fellow otaku have anime-ish versions of themself.
Eh, it's all about tailoring what you look for. You can exclude or outright ban tags you dislike on a booru if stuff offends you.
I usually don't bother since I have a thick skin and like to make comments on stuff even if it's not my usual bag.
Not sure why you would think that's the case.
The ones paying for expensive porn art and frolicking around in expensive fursuits are not the majority they're just the most noticeable.
Being a clopper makes you a furfan. All furfans are only "part" furfan because obviously there's other aspects to everyone's life besides one interest no matter how dominant it gets.
There's no way to get any solid stats on that.
People who are "out" about one weird thing tend to be "out" about other weird things, so it stands to reason that open gays would be more likely to broadcast their fur fandom than straight people.
Straight people can secretly like furry but have more pressure to fit in as normal so they don't broadcast it as much.
I can't really equivocate cuck/netorare fetishes to literally watching two dudes fuck each other.
I can understand how you can say it's bisexual in nature and perhaps homo-adjacent but it's def not in the same category.
Being in need of cope has a tendency to spill out, you tend to find more experimental homosexuality amongst the distraught and frustrated, so it stands to MWHSWM would be over-represented amongst furfans.
I'm not sure about 90% but let's say double ot triple whatever the normal going rate of 'coping with a gay or tranny' tends to be amongst the populace.
FurFANS
Even the ones who all-out say they're spiritually foxes and dress up in the costumes and shit, they WISH they were furries and might identify as "otherkin" but they are not furries, they are humans.
Lola Bunny and Sally Acorn are furries.
Sonichu is a furry.
Chris-Chan is not a furry he's a furfan.
Smelling like cat piss would not be a dealbreaker to me, I could still like a girl despite that.
How many are legit furfans vs booth babes there to get male attention but who don't actually invest in the culture?
Most of us haven't met a wide range of females in any facet of life so I don't know why this observation is relevant.
depends on the series, still waiting for the unicorn who wants to cuddle and watch a KNJ marathon with me
closest I ever encountered online got married and prob wouldn't =/
We're all severely mentally ill here.
We are all anxious and depressed about our lack of female companionship.
sorta helps but if it were a complete cure to realizing
prevails over
and
then we wouldn't bother coming here
Degeneracy can be found in any fandom.
If it's a broad enough category you'll find a broader range of degeneracy.
Furry fandom is just like anime fandom in that respect.
Or being a fan of "reading" or "television"
Why are you assuming that the average fur-fan has a fursuit or attends a con?
There's a thing called 'selection bias'
There are anti-cub anti-loli factions in furry fandom too. Maybe they tend to be slightly more open but not sure to what degree.
I'm a fan of furry art but that has little to do with wanting to fuck local fauna because the furry girls I want to fuck are 2D drawings voiced by real humans speaking english with humanoid forms.
Do you think wanting to fuck these four things is equivalent?

there's progressive degrees of anthropomorphism at play here, pretty sure you can perceive there's moer at plat than "he wants to fuck a squirrel"
