As someone who grew up with the Redwall books I’m a bit sad all instances of anthropomorphic animals are met with that thought, which immediately assumes sexual deviancy.
Like, there’s some anthro visual novels out there that seem really cool, get a more stylistic look to each character by being animals, and yet they’re probably more associated to furries.
Yup. Grew up with stuff like Starfox, and it was later ruined by furries.
I don't even really blame the furries themselves though. They're not hurting anyone. In some ways I just blame the high phobia of viewing anything they might theoretically find any interest in.
I have a small group of them that I play Final Fantasy XIV with on occasion, and they're decent guys.
