As a furry of the particularly active and super-sexy variety I feel I may have some additional insight into the mentality behind certain popular fetishes within the fandom. I see vore and some other common ones crop up in this thread a lot. There's a popular underlying dom/sub dynamic in the fandom and due to the average furry's lack of a fundamental understanding of relationships and how they function "vore" is sometimes popular because it's a togetherness kind of thing. Again, it's a bit bent out of shape, but it's a form of union (usually between two people who've never met IRL and who probably won't ever). As far as digestion and "hard vore" goes, that's usually a completely different kind of crowd.
Cub/loli/CP furry stuff is generally frowned upon unanimously by pretty much anyone level-headed in the fandom. There was this outcry a few years back when FurAffinity pulled the plug on cub art (or art of fictional characters known to be under 1
. There are a lot of people circumventing this rule, but as a whole the greater fandom tries to discourage and keep cub out of the community. FurAffinity is a cess pool of shit, though, so of course their cub demographic would get pissy (pun intended) about things. The mentality is pervasive at conventions as well as there was a stink regarding Softpaw Magazine (a publication specializing in cub art) selling at vendor allies and stuff like that. As far as I know, you cannot openly sell pornographic cub/underage artwork at major conventions anymore. The powers that be within the fandom have been making some great strides to clean up and somewhat legitimize the fandom to an extent.
I don't have too many fetishes, considering I've been in the fandom almost 15 years I guess that's an accomplishment. Full disclosure, however, I do happen to own "exotic" toys, haha.
I've been through the worst the fandom has to offer, things like over-sexualization of childrens' characters, plushophilia, and umpteen diaperfurs. I've seen the mysteries of Fox Wolfie Galen, ShadowWolfess, and that guy who was really REALLY into Meeko the raccoon. 
If anyone has any specific questions about the fandom, I'd like to be an open book for the community. :3 If I forget to respond in this thread leave me a profile message reminding me how terrible I am and I'll swing by here.
