Why are furries not accepted here?
 
That's just really messed up. I live in the USA, where I am given freedom. I find it annoying how people of the country full of freedom tell each other what they cannot believe in. I do believe that is the freakin' reason why we live here, people. No offense to players of other countries, just to other American people.

We're not saying don't be a furry. We're saying don't go around here bragging about it.

I see. But I never was bragging. I was warning. So not to insult.

People like to flame furries in the same way that others like to insult homosexuals or emos. It's really not a big deal. Just don't go around talking about it (in much the way a gay person wouldn't go around saying "I'm gay so..." or "...because I'm gay") and you should be fine.

Anyway, you sign away your rights as soon as you register on this site.

This is how life is on the Internet.

Certain groups of people will be insulted without remorse.

Currently, this site is fairly anti-myspace, furry, and emo, or any combination of those three.

Why? Because there are people out there who are the extreme of their classification and they ruin it for you. We've had countless threads about furries who honestly think they are animals and refuse to listen to logic. Also one about some guy who wanted to marry his made-up furry wife.

So, now you see where we're coming from.

....So...does that make me one of those? No, it doesn't. And Tib, I created two story post things because I lost the first one. *is such a loser like that*

I never said it did.

I said we're biased as a result of those posts.

This is the Internet. This is how it is.

The second you choose to become a furry, your signing away your right not to be stereotyped. As squeak said, the extremists ruin it for you.

This is different from being stereotyped for your race, gender, sexual preference, ect. because those are things you have no control over.

You don't want to be stereotyped? Then don't choose to be a furry.

I am a furry because I am one. Big deal.

Being a furry and being accepted are not mutually exclusive.

cynic is a furry but no one gives a shit because he doesn't flaunt it and he's a really cool guy in general and he was an important part of the early days of keyboard StepMania.

Solution: emulate cynic as much as possible.

@ Dragula

People have control over their sexual preference. It is not genetic.

Although I actually do agree with you, it hasn't been proven.

1. There are limits to freedom as defined by the social norm. Naturally, you can't go about stealing, and murdering because a majority of the population believes that stealing and murdering is ethically wrong. Those who don't fit into the social norm are considered outcasts or outsiders. They are people who are to be feared, because they refuse to conform and thus are discriminated against.

2. Furrydom/Furrism is not a social norm as most people find the idea of f*cking a dog/cat/wolf/whatever repulsive.

3. So, you want to have sex with an animal? Personally, I think furries are sexual deviants on par with pedophiles and necrophiliacs, but who am I to say what is right and wrong? However, I do think bestiality is wrong as animals can't consent to the act.
