Welcome to /c/Gay - Your LGBTQ+ Haven
We're more than just a community; we're your haven for celebrating LGBTQ+ culture and connecting with like-minded individuals.
Community Rules:
~ 1. No bigotry. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 4. Keep it LGBTQ+ related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love posts but 3-4 in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Furries and animal-fuckers are different groups. And if you're lumping them together, you're bound to get criticized for it.
FYI: furries are people with an interest/love for anthropomorphic animals.
actually they're not, but I forgive your mistake
Replying from an alt-account because the other instance doesn't show your message.
Could you explain how and why I am wrong?
much like how pedophiles will excuse jerking it to loli by justifying it with "no no, bro, she's actually a 10,000 year old dragon goddess, she just looks 12!", furries justify wanting to fuck a dog by saying the dog talks.
It really is just that simple, sport. Fetishizing animals is not okay. And you can use all the mental gymnastics you want to bullshit yourself with so you can sleep at night, but at the end of the day, nobody else is obligated to indulge you in them.
Lets get something straight first before I disseminate your argument: I do not watch furry porn myself, I am a furry who enjoys sfw furry art and I'm trying to defend the community against false accusations like yours.
Furry porn is based on fictional characters with fictional properties. What doesn't exist in real can exist in fiction, like an anthropomorphic animal. If you want to see the difference between an anthropomorphic animal and a non-anthropomorphic animal you can compare the following two subs: !furry@pawb.social and !aww@lemmy.ml. Also, morality can get messy in the realm of fiction, take pokémon for example, it depicts animalfights organized by humans for their pleasure. Would it then be wrong to watch pokémon?
And !furry@pawb.social proves that there is more to the furry community than furry porn, since the mahority of the posts are sfw, making your generalization false. Or take the exiatence of fursona's, where people make an anthropomorphic version of themselves.
And one last thing: even IF it was all an excuse to watch bestialityporn, even then the idea that all furries are animalfuckers is false. Because there is still a difference between watching certain drawn content and actually indulging in it in real life.
You didn't even bother to read what I had to say. Bye then.
