orientation in in furry communities
« on: September 30, 2009, 12:42:36 AM »
Ok before I start this topic let me say that I in no way mean to offend anyone and am only intending to ask a behaviour question related to the furry fandom.
      Now as i have visited various furry forums including this one I have noticed that there is a huge trend of bisexual oriented furrys. Now what I am wondering is what is it about the fandom that attracts many bi-sexually oriented people. Personally I have no problem at all with bi-sexually oriented people but I am just curious what it is about the fandom that draws so many. And perhaps I am wrong and the bi to straight ratio is not as different as I think it is.

Probably because the furry community is very accepting so gay/bi/lesbian people feel comfortable here. That's my guess. But I don't think orientation has anything to do with being a furry in particular.

yeah that does make sense cause I have always felt furrys are very accepting and that they dont judge you for who you are.

Maybe people are just more open here. Being bi is far more socially acceptable than being a furry, so if you can say that you're a furry, saying you're bi is nothing.

but that's just a wild stab in the dark. Different reasons for different people.

"Parents always think kids are wasting their youth, and always have done [so] down through the millennia," says Tom Forsyth of RAD Game Tools. "'That Ug, always holding things. His front paws will develop in funny ways. Why can't he walk on all fours like normal proto-hominids?' And so, whatever the kids spend the most time doing, that's always what parents think is a waste of time, and what is corrupting their lives. It doesn't matter what that is. If all they did was homework, parents would be worrying that their kids aren't becoming well-rounded people. And, in fact, parents do this - enrolling math nerds in karate classes and the like. There is no way to win - parental paranoia ensures that kids are always doing the wrong thing."
