Do you think there’s a real link between furries being gay, like the type of person who is a furry just tends to be disproportionately gay and online?

there's a disposition between gay people and being furries, not between being furry, and being gay.

It's a little weird, but it's just a technicality of the furry community being the way that it is. It's the same reason the US government is 90% people above the age of 60 right now. It's just demographic shenanigans.
