jcstinks Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 You ever notice how furries always somehow end up dating only, and exclusively other furries? What's the deal with that? I mean, when I hear a furry say "I have a boyfriend," I just wait for them to continue on with "and he's a wolf! ^_^", because this is true more in more than ninety percent (90%) of all instances. Is there something unique furries share that other nerds don't? Or are furries so insular that they don't associate outside the fandom? I have never heard of this from any other group of people, ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDingo Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Because they're lonely unconfident furries who can't relate to anyone except for other lonely unconfident furries.

Alexxx-Returns Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I feel like I get a lot more male interest in the fandom than outside it. I put that down to people wanting to date other furries more than people who aren't. And since most of the interest comes from in the fandom, chances are I'll end up dating someone in it too.

DrDingo Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Some furries like to see the fandom as some sort of nasty secret about themselves that changes who they are.

malibu Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I've never actually dated a furry, but I think it would be fun to have someone with the same interest. I had an ex who wasn't a furry, but she entertained me and made a fursona so we could get art of our chars together. I think furries just naturally gravitate to those with similar interest, like normal people. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to think that they just wouldn't care, but I have subsequently been approached by people saying they had to defend me from 'horrible rumours', and that those horrible rumours turned out to be 'you're a furry'. I tried to reply by saying 'even if those rumours were true it wouldn't be horrible, would it?' but they cut me off saying 'I don't care if they're true; I don't want to know'. Chances are the way the rumor in question was presented less "I jerk it furry porn" and more "I want to fuck dogs". Not that there's too much of a difference but y'know, nuance.

Ieono Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) Yeah, I think it comes down to the convenience of dating within their social group, and the avoidance of people who may judge them harshly for being furries. But hey, I don't really know a lot of furries irl, and I'd guess it the reasons vary like most things. I don't really believe people who are otherwise repulsive claiming to be in a relationship over the internet, so there is also that.

Spot Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 It's quite simple, really.

willow Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 for some reason I can just imagine Chili having all of these links saved in a folder for this exact moment... anyway, furries probably date other furries so that way they don't have to struggle finding non-furry things to do.

Didn't know she was 31 or the con going type. I think the field of profession she is studying will end up being beneficial fandom wise, too. And, dancing doesn't seem to be a huge thing here.

Gotta disagree there, Ive seen plenty of straight couples with the females of said relationship not have some jealousy complex, and by definition...well, a lot of people share interests in general.

Rassah Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 There's the stereotype of girls getting jealous if guys even look at other pretty girls, and I'm sure looking at porn of other girls could be kind of awkward for the guy too if he gets caught.

Astus Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 It's actually quite funny, but a lot of the babyfurs tend to have almost exclusive relationships inside the babyfur click (which knowing babyfurs leads to hilarious drama). Most of the time it has to do with the fact that people are rightfully not okay with that whole idea or concept. I generally think that the furry fandom works kind of the same way with obviously more leeway involved. If someone really likes the thought of anthropomorphic animals you'd assume that their significant other would also have to be okay with it or there would be little to no connection; which is why we see it more often than not 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
