Media 2005: Furries are degenerates that only draw lewd animals fornicating and then recreate this IRL in fursuits. Most are men who only think with their genitalia and will do anything or anyone to, quote, get off.

Furries 2005: Preposterous!

Furries 2020: You& #39;re not wrong.

Instead of the media pointing out the exploits of depravity, it& #39;s the furries themselves. Does no one think before they act anymore? Even at my horniest, I always thought of how my actions would reflect upon me later. Didn& #39;t stop me from blindly marrying someone who didn& #39;t love -

me. My desires never got me wrapped up in anything illegal. Or that which could be viewed as inhumane or unconscionable. Seeing all this crap come to light on a multimedia platform open to the public is disheartening. Add in sad or disgusting as you see fit.

This all just makes me even more wary of opening up and seeking friendship within the fandom. We all have skeletons in our closets. It seems others still have fresh bodies. I don& #39;t know who to trust. Is it even possible? I& #39;d love to go to a con someday. Seeing all this nonsense -

makes me NOT want to. It seems many act young and stupid and the repercussions are vented out in the open. Change is said but not done. Even if it is, one is still vilified. What& #39;s the point of forgiveness then? Some grudges are well deserved. But geebus! Some just won& #39;t allow -

it. How the hell are we supposed to become united when all we do is find something to separate us? Labels upon labels are made, seemingly, daily to categorize us like we& #39;re objects. I am human. There are innies and outies. I have an outie. That shouldn& #39;t define anything else -

about me or my character. It can be changed. Anything can change. That& #39;s the beauty of free will, education, experience, etc. It really should be "United, we stand. Labeled, we fall." I feel we can never overcome our differences if we constantly find ways to separate us.

I& #39;m exhausted. I& #39;m ranting. This thread probably doesn& #39;t even make sense at this point. I think it just shows that I, too, am imperfect. I really hope my imperfections are not something that become a topic of lecture - like all these vague call-out posts - because they are not -

discussions. I just want to see the rest of my days filled with love, joy, happiness, and all that other wholesome stuff. Perhaps that& #39;s too much to ask.

I& #39;ma go eat and sleep. I& #39;m so drained right now. Be safe out there.
