Furry Convention Drama - Because you can't have a couple thousand dog fucking enthusiasts under the same roof without shit hitting the fan

[Fuggalope]

MFF ‘23 was my first con experience and I’m honestly kinda floored by how many troons I encountered at any given time while on the premises. Didn’t matter if I was attending panels, checking out merch or stepping outside for a smoke; I could almost guarantee that there’d be a dozen freakishly tall, broad shouldered pasty guys with receding hairlines convening wherever I was hanging out. Suffice to say, none of them passed and they all dressed like you would expect them to.

It was honestly pretty fun for me personally, but I came there to hang out with friends, explore the less ghetto parts of Chicago and get art advice from professionals, not rape unconscious popufurs at room parties.

I had a very similar experience at a fur convention earlier in the summer. I estimated about 2 in 10 men at the con were troons. Long, thinning hair, bad skin, spinny skirt. Walking stereotypes. And I couldn't look in any direction in a public space at the con and not see a few.

It was disturbing. The fandom wasn't always like this. All the men are becoming bad imitations of women.

HRT is doing to nerd communities in the 2020s what crack did to niggers in the 1980s.

While I know this observation isn’t exactly novel, I do find it kind of intriguing how furry culture is simply downstream from nerd culture in a lot of ways, and that includes the high prevalence for autism and failed men among their ranks.

This may have been my first furcon, but the very first convention I ever attended was Anime Boston in 2009, and men who dressed like women were usually just doing ironic cosplays. Transgenderism was known but not really talked about, so you didn’t exactly see a bunch of eunuchs in drag walking around dressed like an imitation of their 8th grade goth gf crush from homeroom. It’s so easy to suss them out because women don’t actually dress like that (to say nothing of the fact that a lot of them are well over six feet tall).

I’ve definitely grown disillusioned with the “born this way” narrative with regards to sexual deviation because the furry fandom by its own actions makes the case against it. 15 years ago, most of these men would have just been gay dudes; 30 years ago, most of them would have been straight.

I went to MFF'21 & 22 and the jump in the amount of Troons in that time frame was nuts. I think most cons that are Party/Sex cons don't have as many. Furpoc/Furydelphia have a low concertation of Troons along with ANE as well. That and a lot of the Trans furs tend to based more out of the Midwest so that could be another reason why.

Glad you had fun though.

>not rape unconscious furfags

Someone’s missing out on the full furcon experience

I noticed a significant amount of furries within my online periphery started transitioning during covid, among them was a friend I met through my significant other who went from being a bog standard art school postgrad tumblr chick to an autoandrophile on overdrive. I suspect being involuntarily confined to your room with access to an incalculably large repository of weird fetish art at your fingertips is why a lot of furries of both sexes are taking the skittles.

As for the supposed lack of troons at adult cons, that's a bit tricky... My guess, however, from my own observations at MFF this year is that the kinds of troons who would attend a (supposedly) all-ages con like FurFest but not an adult con like Furrydelphia has something to do with how cripplingly autistic they are as a demographic. Remember, these are nerds; they have poor social skills and being romantically and sexually unfulfilled throughout adolescence and young adulthood is probably what trooned them out in the first place. Not to grasp at straws too hard, but I suspect the average furry troon, while addicted to pornography, is more likely turned on by the idea of hookups and sex than the actually doing so. Why else does it seem like they only ever hook up with each other?

Glad you had fun though.

Thank you, it was a great excuse to meet up with friends who were already planning to attend anyway. c:

Agreed, the troon presence was nuts. I've never seen so many before. My friend and I had a running tally of MtF vs actual women. The "femme fursuit photoshoot" was 80% men.

Oh hey, some creepy fucker named Shujin used to do something called that, he still going?

 

[Fuggalope]

I don't know if cons still do a "female furs meet and greet" but if they do, I bet it's almost all troons these days.

The absolute explosion of trannyism in nerdy communities is honestly baffling to me. I see it happening, but can't make sense of it.

There's a whole lot of factors, I think.

Nerds look at the stunning rise of technology of the past century and think anything's possible. Fuck biology, we got science! There's the decline of family that impacts it in like three ways: lack of guidance, the decline of the family as a life goal, and the reduction of organic support and from the family structure, leading to people looking outside. That gets us to grooming, a factor we all know well. It's also trendy, and trendy in another way: It's new. Nerds want to be on the forefront of something. They've got, for better or worse, that pioneer mindset.

Also people see it as a way out of their depression and other mental problems: See my point about familial support. The fact that the trans suicide rate doesn't support this being a good option doesn't seem to impact them. Very, very few people are going to magically feel better in their lives, or feel better at all, going trans. How many people covered on here said they were living their best lives as their brand new gender then jumped in front of a truck?

There's also trans as extreme cooming but that's a whole other topic of its own.

the thing is, they're not wrong
deodorant isn't natural and there's absolutely no reason to wear it as long as you keep your body clean

deodorant, however, in environments like this, isn't so much of an ideal, as opposed to a 'solution'
you don't need to wear deodorant, no, but odds are these people aren't washing nearly as regularly as a person should to avoid smelling absolutely rank in crowded environments.... so the deodorant is moreso a bandain on top of a bigger problem

IDK what I would do if I ran into another Kiwi at a con. Probably cry. But someday I still hope it happens.

Look at this sentence.

Then think about the people this thread is about.

And then go back to the sentence and ask yourself if this is something that these kinds of people would actually be by default.

Absolutely not. Unless you are making regular stops to freshen up, far more than a normal person would, you need to wear deodorant or people will smell your stinky ass. Especially in a warm environment full of people. Especially if you're wearing a big shaggy carpet like many of these people. And ESPECIALLY if you're severely obese like most of these people.

Wear deodorant you smelly fag.

The isolation years have caused more damage in those already borderline deranged communities than Covid or the vaccine itself did. The number of Trannies in daily life jumped to numbers where they have actually become countable, it goes beyond the weird fandoms - tho agreed, it's strongest there.
But also going to a gym, getting groceries etc - you can see them everywhere now and >90% are just ugly as fuck and proud of it. So far I was spared whenever it came to restrooms or a locker room, but the fear is real. I already have to conceal my disgusted chuckle when I see them from afar.

Not sure the names, but there were definitely several creepy dudes working the event

Before everything detonated in 2020 I was going to wear one of the halloween shirts to one. Sigh!

I'm surprised this hasn't been posted yet. Apparently there has been another HIV testing point at the MFF.
The author threw a shitfit over the HIV test sign, and promptly deleted it before I even saw the post. Some gay-ass TG channel archived it.



He apparently got ass blasted after that.

Man, I love how people go "wearing deodorant isn't natural!". Yeah, no shit it's not natural.

Neither is spending 4+ hours in an enclosed space with thousands of strangers from all corners of the nation, half of these people wearing synthetic shag carpets full of plastic foam padding.

These people love their naturalistic fallacies, but only when it's convenient to them.
