I mean…
Let's not forget...
Or...
I mean, #1, yes, but #2? Eeeeeeh...
What's this? You have a problem with Sally Acorn? The female character that wore clothes, but only a vest and boots, pointedly wearing no pants and keeping the front of her vest open? Whose outfit had to be redesigned to be less sexualized, well after the original cartoon aired?
Don Bluth def a furry
Notably, the man didn't get shot, yet he's still clearly into it. He knew what he was doing when he told Cupid to shoot it. The bear 'attack' was just a pretense.
I mean, would you rather a bear eat you or make love to you?
Either way, it’s better if you’re into bear stuff.
Male bear or female bear? My decision could be different...
Bears usually get violent when their cubs are nearby, so I’m gonna guess probably a momma bear.
The guy wasn’t even shot and he fell in love, that guy is a freak.
Certified. Seven days a week.
Mæn dju̇ſt luıkſ ð Halsin romænſ in BG3.

Man just likes the Halsin romance in BG3.
You've really doubled-down since the last time I saw you.
Ye
Keep on truckin'
James is not beating the furry allegations
That guy:
I was kinda disappointed with romancing Halsin after everyone was blowing it up. Having seen pretty much all the others before hand, I was expecting more than just him turning into the bear and getting a fade to black. 😮💨
One assumes still an improvement given that the default option was mauling.
So, according to the meme, and the examples in the comments... It's a beastiality fetish.
Furry is about anthropomorphic animals, that bear isn't one, so no, OP is just memeing.
Technically it engaging in a human activity in a human way: it is anthropomorphized in the comic. It's just not humanoid.
Not really.
The defining characteristic of the furry fandom is a fascination with anthropomorphic (= walks on two legs and can talk) animals, whether in a sexual context or not. The sexual side of the fandom is the side that gets the most attention (and, admittedly, it is pretty big), but it is by no means the only side. The appeal is in creating a character that represents you to the wider world without revealing anything about your real life identity beyond your aesthetic choices, and along with it a persona that you can adopt for a while that has none of the responsibilities of being a human and a cool animal tail to boot. Dogs don't have jobs. They don't worry about bills. They just run around and play and be dumb and boop each other's noses. And sometimes, after a long day as a software engineer, vaccine researcher, or brain surgeon, that's exactly what you need.
With regard to the sexual side, every individual furry has different places where they draw the line with regard to resemblance to actual animals. Some stay away from sexualizing anthropomorphic characters altogether, most draw the line when a creature stops walking on two legs, some are okay with characters that look like actual wolves and cheetahs as long as they talk and think like humans, a few only draw the line when it stops being fictional, but the one thing they all have in common is a strong condemnation for actual, real-life bestiality. Zoophilia is not tolerated, anywhere. Most furries view it as morally equivalent to pedophilia.
Is that a reference to that Tipp-Ex commercial?
Funny, had the same weird connection in my head 😂 Very effective marketing, I guess!
