Furry Fandom and Drama General

[Soda Can]

I also feel that all furries go through a phase where they will intentionally engage in very poor opsec, making very weak performative attempts to separate their personal and private lives and usually justifying it by saying “oh, the Internet’s a big place, no one‘s going to find my weird shit“. I think that’s part of the thrill for them - the possibility of getting caught.

I don't know, I feel like it's more that the average person knows they are an average person. The average person is just not very interesting in the first place, that they do one or two cringy, mildly interesting things doesn't change that. They don't feel a huge need to jump through hoops to hide those one or two interesting things cause, again, they as people are not interesting enough to bother with. This whole website operates on about the same assumption, lolcows are the special few who have risen out of 'average', everyone else is a mild curiosity at the most.

Also why in the world can a dildo be stuck to a window

Because it has a suction cup.

They have suction cups so you can put them on walls, floors etc and use it without having to hold it. This isn't exclusive to furry dildos.

Hey guys. Sorry to interrupt actual important discussions but I want to inflict this upon you guys again because somebody reacted to my post from 3 years ago. In which I shared a screenshot of a tweet, without archiving because I was a newfag retard, and now the og tweet is removed. Good job me. Anyway, just look at it okay

Spoiler: the tweet in question.....not nsfl but still prepare yourself

Why am I posting it again? No reason, it just makes me laugh in a "what the frick oh hell naw" sort of way, and it's lived rent free in my head for 3 years without my consent, and now I insist that you remember it too. Suffer with me.

Also why in the world can a dildo be stuck to a window. What kind of degenerate autist thinks of doing this? Was it one person's collection or a group's? Where did they come from and where did they go? Where did they come from cotton eyed joe? That massive one on the left especially concerns me on a number of levels (someone there definitely suffers from anal fissures). And I wonder if that was taken at a hotel. A public hotel full of families and normal people.

Look in the reflection, there's even more dildoes behind the camera.

Something about vast crowds of dildos in strange places is kind of amusing in a fifth grade humor type way. It's a herd of dicks.

It would be the same to me if I didn't know what kind of fat sweaty freak was likely using them just minutes before the picture being taken.

Furries didn’t graduate beyond fifth grade humor, so it fits.

Are weebs any different? Look up Webtoons or any of those sites and the comedy boils down to "but they're cute anime girls". Oh the punchline? She's actually busty! And short! Haha

It's a weird overlap. Both BDSM enthusiasts and furfags tend to absolutely fucking hate and cringe at pupfucks because they do it in public and bring too much attention to what is generally kept pretty private (more BDSM, but not even furries are that open on the whole). Furries don't think it's strictly furry, and is cheap fursuiting, at best, and BDSM fetish play being done in public and masqueraded as furry on the worse side.

I remember a guy (might've been here?) who had a lot of insight into the vanilla irl gaybar culture as well as online lgbt spaces, especially pup faggots. He specifically said nobody liked them, nobody wanted them around, and at places like Pride they'd try to skate the line between furry or bear/otter type spaces, being unwelcome in both. The fact F2Ms obsess over this pupplay shit especially should underline how it's not a natural gay fetish. Gay men like gay men, not some weird beastly take on two animals being confused by hormones into fucking the same gender.

It is 100% aesthetic or 'fashion' to them, and who cares greatly about those things? Dykes. And women who are so consumed by fujo tropes they can't see two men eating pizzas together without soaking themselves.

Ill expand on this a bit. There are 3 types of pup play people. The broke niggas thay can't afford a fursuit. These people are mostly fine same level as kids who get dino masks or skull dogs. Then there are the aesthetic ones. They are basically just see the hoods,collars and straps to look good. They overlap alot with the gym gays. Then there is the third the borderline beastiality ones. These are the ones that act like dogs and gross everyone out. If yoy have ever interacted with them you would not the extreme lack of shame and social awareness. They have no fetish outside of "be dog".

Their explosive growth is bizarre to me. They felt like they came out of no where and I blame the fandom for got gatekeeping harder. They have basically are some of the biggest sec pests around and It is why they usually get relegated to be with themselves similar to diaper fags.

 

[Pinball 2000]

I think the comments by @Piggle-o on the last page and @Otis Boi right above me probably say it best: most furries generally dislike pups and see them as a nuisance, and most furry events don’t seem to be gatekeeping this hard enough. I'd like to say part of it is also the fact that while fursuit heads easily cost hundreds at the absolute minimum, you can buy a cheap mass-produced pup mask for less than $30 on Amazon:


I personally put more of the blame on events and furry groups/social media for not taking a stronger stance against this, rather than on the people engaging in it. A good example is the furry social network Barq. When it first launched, it outright made uploading photos of yourself in a pup hood a bannable offense. However, it then caved and allowed such photos, but only on the "adult" section of a profile, not in the general areas. I believe this was because (at the time) Barq openly allowed minors to use the service. After Barq eventually realized that was a terrible idea and finally banned minors, it seems that pup hoods can now be freely posted anywhere on the app.

If you want a good example of a convention refusing to draw a line, I'd use Furrydelphia. Their official website advertises themselves as a family friendly event, with a specific policy for minors where they need parental permission to attend.


...Yet in spite of being an all-ages affair, they constantly use their official social media to promote blatant fetish events like this:

If any furmeet or furry convention staff lurking on the forum are reading this, I'm begging you: either market yourself as an adults-only event and ban minors, or ban the kink gear outright and make it an all-ages event. You can't have both; pick one or the other. This really isn't that fucking hard.

i'm guessing they are actually extremely hard as they expose minors to BDSM events via social media

Woke up around 8 AM and saw this shit today.

Edit: His name is Tantherias if you can't read the horrible font color choice. There's only one person on Steam with that name, but I can't just assume it's the same guy.
Edit again: Steam profile is privated 16 hours later. It's 100% him.

That whole family sounds like a series of winners! Urge to fed post... rising. Also he kept the remains in the shed? What in the fuck?? Fucking bury them at least.

Probably an exaggeration of what actually happened.

Gay men like gay men, not some weird beastly take on two animals being confused by hormones into fucking the same gender.

This is probably of interest to @Otis Boi and @Pinball 2000 as well.

Per some private discussion and observations of a few pup players, it's both an identity crisis, in the sense that it's a role to play that reduces the player to a base (psycho)sexual function and the sense that the hood removes identity (and omfg do furries hate their identity), and a super subby fetish for the kind of autists that bark and whimper in bed, and not in the sexy way. The only dude I've ever spoken with who interacted with pup players and said they were otherwise normal was a sailor who liked to wear skirts and get choked, which leads me to believe there is a similar thing going on.

It makes no sense that these fags appear in the east as well with absolutely no change in aesthetics, just language. Honestly feels like they were engineered in a psyop with how artificial their sudden appearance has been. I really don't get who exactly gets off to these mortal kombat ninja masks but it certainly isn't actual furries. Might explain why the US military had a few generals into this crap, this shit glows.

I know a few of the events around be they is a soft ban on them (they are outright not invited) but nothing official this includes a lot of the bar events as well.

I mean I know why and where they came from. Its a intermingling version of 80s daddy and leather culture(Mr.S) and the explosive growth of the late 2010s furry fandom. Im just confused how quickly it spread. Just like troons it feels like its everywhere when 3 years ago it was basically nowhere.

The people i know who are into it drop once they get a fursuit, either are just gymbros who want to hide there faces, or the fandom bike.

I want to say I dislike these people rate me MATI but I think they are on the level of troons when it comes it spread and obnoxiousness

Low barrier of entry, maybe?

I don't know how much a full set of BDSM leathers costs, but I bet a 30-buck pup hood is way cheaper than the rest of the outfit. Throw one of these on, find a place where gay men go for hookups, profit?

 

[Noebel]

But why? McDonalds bag with a few holes cut in it is basically free, even more dehumanizing if you like to overthink, and will give you points for originality.

Yeah yeah I know all that. My tone was more like, what circumstances in the universe aligned so that a bunch of neon exotic sex toys can be attached to a window in full view of the public...? Why is this a situation that can happen? Why do these people exist? Why are we still here? Just to suffer?
