For fuck’s sake. The furry fandom’s main point is not sex -.-

Oh fuck you Giz. I tend to enjoy this site and other Gawker sites, but fuck you. And fuck anyone else who still believes this tripe in 20-fucking-16. Kate, how about you actually do some goddamn research like a real damn jorunalist instead of just parroting what CSI, Vanity Faire, Tyra Banks, and the other shit…

Your representation of the furry community is misleading at best, sensationalist pandering at worst. Furry is not solely a sexual fandom, but nor is it solely non-sexual. Try not to deliberately misrepresent things, would you?

I don’t suppose it would do any good to point out that “sexual” furries are the vast, VAST minority of the furry movement. Most of them are just people who, y’know, like furry art and characters.

It’s a bummer to see furries defined by the sexual angle again, but I guess that’s what grabs people’s attention. Nobody’s going to keep scrolling if you call furries “people fascinated with animal symbolism who create their own characters and personas”.
