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?

    The fandom is not based in any way on NSFW, all that content is just a consequence of rule 34 and the fact that the fandom is one of the largest fandoms online and exists mainly thanks to the internet and art. Also any irl sexual activity rarely involves a mursuit (sexual fursuit) because there's no desire and they're expensive (even a normal fursuit can reach $10000 pretty quickly).

    Also it's generally agreed on that "coming out as a furry" is not really a thing, being a furry is just a hobby (or a job for some) not a sexuality, not a gender, just a hobby
