like i thought the whole otherkin thing (people who think they're literally a fox/horse/horseshoe crab/whatever trapped in a human's body) was dumb and then i found out about the wonderful world of fictionkin, which are people who think they're literally fictional characters trapped in the bodies of real-life humans and if you tell them that they're hosed in the head then you're a bigot shitlord

idk what happens when two or more people who think they're the same fictional character bump into each other though; it would be awesome if there were these giant screechy slapfights over which one is the real asriel dreemurr or whatever the gently caress

idgaf what people jerk it to honestly, as long as you're not hurting anybody (who isn't consenting obviously some people like it rough) it's cool

But as with other kinks, doing the furry thing in public because it's "who you are" isn't exactly a good idea. Like any other group that has a code of solidarity, it's only a matter of time before the real trouble seeps in. This is one of those things where so many bad stories accumulate it ceases to be apocrypha and becomes a time-tested stereotype. Like how polyamorous people are usually unhinged drama bombs set to go off in high-density areas, e.g. the judicial system/social media/xmas parties.

As a child, I had an idea once where every idea you get about some world or character is actually a signal or some poo poo from a different universe where that thing actually exists, so every fictional thing is a reality in an alternate universe because that reality was the origin of the fictional idea to begin with.

as an adult, i have seen people with a similar idea turn it into a form of self-induced mental illness

this makes me feel kind of like a post-holocaust german trying his best to never be a nazi at all, but with insanity

i don't think he's defending public displays or excusing poor lifestyle choices, it sounds more like "if these people want to dress up as cartoon characters and gently caress in the privacy of their own homes, man, more power to em"

I know which post you're responding to and would like to know why you quoted that bit instead.

and this entire thread started with a post on imgur of someone going "HEY GENERAL PUBLIC, I'M HORNY FOR A CARTOON ANIMAL, ISN'T THAT JUST CRAZY HA HA HA?" which is one the the top 50 perennial comments on that site so 'privacy of their own homes' was never really the topic at hand

well i mean it was really the only line that related to it, no need to quote the rest of the chunk. i see what you mean that imgur is public, but it's the sort of internet-public where everyone can see it but you largely retain your anonymity. maybe less so than on a chan, but "registered dude on imgur" is a lot less identifiable than you or me posting here, so in that sense, that their identity is still private.

i'm not tryna take a shot at you making a "ashamed citizen in post-nazi germany" comparison, this ain't d&d and i kinda see where you're coming from with it. i do think that there's a certain amount of "oh i shouldn't criticize anything ever" in the world today, but i also think that wasn't what he meant. it's fine to treat what consenting adults do in private as not being any of your business or worthy of criticism, which i think was what DEEP IMPACT ON VHS was talking about.

I've noticed from other people's anecdotes that there are three extremely common themes at every furry meet up:

Tons of alcohol
Lots of gaming discussion
Uninhibited gay sex

I've personally met I think maybe 4 furries and they were all reasonable people just really loving nerdy and lonely, and apparently when you combine those two things you get rampant homosexuality and dog costumes.

Sounds like Rome right before the fall of the republic

quote:

In the late 1950s, psychologist Milton Rokeach was gripped by an eccentric plan. He gathered three psychiatric patients, each with the delusion that they were Jesus Christ, to live together for two years in Ypsilanti State Hospital to see if their beliefs would change. The early meetings were stormy. "You oughta worship me, I'll tell you that!" one of the Christs yelled. "I will not worship you! You're a creature! You better live your own life and wake up to the facts!" another snapped back. "No two men are Jesus Christs. … I am the Good Lord!" the third interjected, barely concealing his anger.
