[QUOTE=Roll_Program;20539573]Posting in a troll thread.[/QUOTE] People like you are why I hate furries. Just like how I hate druggies and gays that have to tell everyone that they smoke/are gay.
[QUOTE=OutOfExile;20540492]People like you are why I hate furries. Just like how I hate druggies and gays that have to tell everyone that they smoke/are gay.[/QUOTE] Roll Program is one of the worst examples of a furry I've seen on here.
[QUOTE=kellybear;20540454]Now, saying that it's a spectrum/range, I can't really say where the line is drawn. It's different for everyone - not too much different, but it's shown clearly in this thread in that some people are tolerant of furries and others are not, so that shows how the spectrum differs.[/QUOTE] There's a big difference between a spectrum and a range. I would say that the definition of normal is a (subjective) range within a spectrum
In addition there's also chemical influence. All the stuff, ingredient [x] if you will that they put in basically everything we eat, and in children it can affect them, even the brain (Not usually serious, just a few neurons shooting in the wrong direction.)
[QUOTE=kellybear;20540526]Roll Program is one of the worst examples of a furry I've seen on here.[/QUOTE] No, thefurrylife is.
[QUOTE=Legacy1219;20539769]Thanks for all of your replies so far :D Another question, though: A lot of you have stated that you can't possibly comprehend how we find anthropomorphic animals sexually attractive. What if I told you that [B]a lot of us can't comprehend how humans could be sexually attractive?[/B] I know it sounds odd, but it's true for a lot of us. And yes, I know it's [b]not[/b] normal. xD Edit: God damn, how could I have screwed up and left "not" out?[/QUOTE] This is what makes people like me believe your 'fandom' is a mental illness, another argument against that is, say we just know you guys don't find humans sexually attractive, either you're asexual or beastlialists
[QUOTE=OutOfExile;20540492]People like you are why I hate furries. Just like how I hate druggies and gays that have to tell everyone that they smoke/are gay.[/QUOTE] He's why I hate many things too. [QUOTE=AnEvilGuy;20540546]No, thefurrylife is.[/QUOTE] I seriously think thefurrylife is a massive, over-working troll.
[QUOTE=OutOfExile;20540492]People like you are why I hate furries. Just like how I hate druggies and gays that have to tell everyone that they smoke/are gay.[/QUOTE] Yeah... I'm not sure how this is a troll thread. There have been points in its existence when it's gotten close, but it hasn't turned into a troll thread yet. As far as I'm concerned we're having a fairly coherent discussion.
[QUOTE=Metanoia;20540536]There's a big difference between a spectrum and a range. I would say that the definition of normal is a (subjective) range within a spectrum[/QUOTE] You can have a spectrum within a spectrum, making them virtually the same thing I.E. spectrum of normality within a spectrum of humanity
[QUOTE=Legacy1219;20540208] Can you explain your attraction to humans in purely objective terms? I doubt it's possible without going into advanced psychology and neurology.[/QUOTE] Do you see dog's fucking cats? No, that would go against the most basic instinct of all, Reproduction. I would not see any point in fucking a dog because i would get nothing out of it, it's despised socially and morally wrong, it will not continue the human race nor will anything benifit from fucking something that is not your own species. I'm also guessing that the way humans smell has something to do with sexual attractions to humans, or pheromones. Be easy on me if i'm wrong i have not done any advanced psychology or neurology things ever.
Well, furry porn that is not gay and not drawn by an 11 year old can be quite good on rare occasions, but people fucking people dressed as animals? How the hell can that be arousing?
[QUOTE=Eli Vance;20540556]He's why I hate many things too. I seriously think thefurrylife is a massive, over-working troll.[/QUOTE] Whoa, ELI! I thought you died in white forrest!
[QUOTE=Da Jester;20540554]This is what makes people like me believe your 'fandom' is a mental illness, Another argument against that is, Say we just know you guys don't find humans sexually attractive, Either you're asexual or beastlialists[/QUOTE] Sure, it could be a mental illness, albeit one that doesn't affect other people in a negative way. I'd say bestiality can definitely affect animals in a negative way. Fortunately, just because we like anthropomorphic animals doesn't mean we also like non-anthro animals.
[QUOTE=Nikita;20540601]Well, furry porn that is not gay and not drawn by an 11 year old can be quite good on rare occasions, but people fucking people dressed as animals? How the hell can that be arousing?[/QUOTE] It isn't. (at least for me)

I consider a furry mentally stable until he start buying fursuit and taking is furryness as an important matter .
Threads like this have a very short life

Be easy on me if i'm wrong i have not done any advanced psychology or neurology things ever.[/QUOTE] I should have specified that I don't mean, "How is finding humans attractive helpful to the human species' procreation?" but that I am wondering what aspects of the human body you find attractive and why. I realize most of us are hardwired to find humans attractive because it's largely necessary for the procreation of our species.

I think that many people can agree that it's the "I'M A FURRY PAY ATTENTION TO ME" vocal minority is the one that gives furries a bad image. Much like the "PRAISE DA LAWD" religious minority. Much like the "BLACK POWAH" racial minority. There's trends of this in every form of subculture, and you shouldn't be quick to misjudge it on a small segment.

Next time you think of dressing up like Tony The Tiger and reaming some fat dude dressed like Tucan sam. Keep it in the bedroom, because when you expose it to the public people will look into it and scar themselves when they find out its not a lifestyle, but an excuse to play around in public like this. You're grown men act like one.

[QUOTE=Eli Vance;20540692]That was my clone, my real self created a inter-universal teleporter and teleported to your dimension.[/QUOTE] I missed you 'dawg, I cried so hard.. Also.. You hate furries too eh? We gotta pick up some funions and smoke a bowl to explore this newly founded mutual hate.
After looking at your avatar and thinking about it for a while, I think your condition is a small step beyond the furry fetish.
[QUOTE=Da Jester;20540747]I missed you 'dawg, I cried so hard.. Also.. You hate furries too eh? We gotta pick up some funions and smoke a bowl to explore this newly founded mutual hate.[/QUOTE] I have no opinion on furries, I simply say when your in FP, and not "furry forum name here", stop parading it around.

You're grown men act like one.[/QUOTE] Is that the fetish/mental illness itself causing the harm, or overzealous members of the fandom? As another member stated, you can find these overzealous people in every group. And in just about every group, those overzealous people are extremely irritating. That includes the furry fandom.
You wont find a neutral perspective here. I think I might be the only person that doesn't mind/care about them that much.
[QUOTE=borisvdb;20540791]You wont find a neutral perspective here. I think I might be the only person that doesn't mind/care about them that much.[/QUOTE] Read through the thread. We're not all bigots.
[QUOTE=borisvdb;20540791]You wont find a neutral perspective here. I think I might be the only person that doesn't mind/care about them that much.[/QUOTE] Fortunately I'm not looking for a neutral perspective. At the moment I'm actually more interested in non-neutral perspectives on the fandom. And as I've said before, I didn't post in the furry subforum because I wouldn't have gotten replies from people who aren't furries, which would have kept me from getting an answer to my question. Again, thanks for all of your replies. It's greatly appreciated.
