UPDATE: can’t help but to notice not ONE of you have answered the question you just keep telling me about furries. I want an answer to why so many people are role playing as aninals
Imma guess, like most things it seems, they always have been, we just see it more thanks to the internet.
This is an interesting point and makes me wonder: are there historical accounts of furries in history? I guess you could count things like werewolf stories, maybe, but that seems like a stretch…? I get the feeling I’m describing an existing field of study and hope there’s something to read about it?
No. When i was growing up, never saw this ever and the internet was still around. This is something else
Dunno how old you are, but we got internet when I was about ten years old and lemme tell you it’s always been there.
Appropriate answer: Escapism.
Lemmy answer: people want to fuck animals.
Are you not an animal? Be you vegetable or mineral?
Because the internet is full of furries. Which isn’t a bad thing it’s just people are judgemental as fuck and think being a furries is childish.
That’s not explaining why they are doing it
Because they can is a perfectly adequate reason.
Sometimes I roleplay as an adult human animal.
I guess frogs are protesting against ICE. Hope this helps
Where?
