Not a subculture I have even the slightest understanding of, but hey..you do you.
My wife's good friend came out recently as a furry, and while she's a really cool person, I cringe over some of her social media posts involving the fur suit. I'm just astonished that she'd post that where her poor grandma is going go see it. They're certainly a proud people.
It’s my understanding it’s not inherently sexual, is it? I mean I know that’s what we see a lot of online but I didn’t think they were all horny about it. So for some portion is just kinda like LARPing?
I know there is sexual elements to some of it, but not all of it. I have no idea how to tell the difference.
As far as I have heard, if someone is making social posts about a fursuit, it is almost certainly just a normal costume.
