Honestly yeah, people bully them for no reason but they are just a bunch of nerdy gay people. Don't hate.

It's always been the funniest shit for me.

I found most people say it's the fact that we are more promiscuous. Which blows my mind cuz it's like are you really going to try to make fun of people for having more sex than you. Sounds like you need to get laid more loser. LMAO

The real reason they're attacking anybody is that they're "weird" (which is obviously something completely subjective and meaningless), the alleged reasons are made up on the fly to convince themselves that they actually have some weight in their opinions.

Bingo. It's just like how conservatives claim homosexuals are rapists and groomers. Their lifestyle makes them uncomfortable, so they fabricate justifications.

That's so interesting omg. I feel like that's just a really poorly thought out cover for disliking anything too outside the norm. Like people say the same thing about gay men too. But obviously, promiscuity is celebrated for straight men.

Are furries mostly gay? Tbh I don't know anything about furries beyond the fun, cute parade they have every year.

[–] whoreticulture@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Yes, most but not all. Maybe like 80% are LGBT. I remember seeing some kind of chart showing that, maybe you can Google and find.
