Zoophilia in the fandom
3 years ago
General
I like this fandom a lot for the creativity, art and kind people within but with that being said I feel like the community just ignores huge problems like zoophilia. And I consider anyone who is attracted to an animal on four legs or an animal's genitalia to be a zoophile because that is not normal. You should not ever be aroused by an animal on four legs or an animal's genitals, that is wrong. The furry fandom ignores things like this which no other fandom would do, it's not normal to be a zoophile and furries should stop treating it like it is. Furries are anthropomorphic animals, they can consent, they have a human mind, human characteristics AND human genitalia, It's fine to be attracted to and draw FURRY porn. We cancel people like Kero the wolf, sappho and Khord Kitty yet there are still hundreds of zoophiles EVERYWHERE in the fandom, we should not treat zoophiles like furries even if they consider themselves apart of the fandom because in reality they are NOT welcome. We portray our fandom as a safe, kind and creative fandom so it should be that way. We should not ever accept zoophiles into the fandom. They are literally everywhere and we just ignore it. They are on twitter, on FA, on tumblr and in real life. You don't have to actively be abusing an animal to be a zoophile, you ARE a zoophile if you're attracted to an ANIMAL.

People only care about zoophiles when they're popular people like the ones you listed, but don't even bother calling out the group of active zoophiles flooding twitter :/
I've also seen people throw around the term "zoophile" over really dumb stuff like calling Nick Wilde hot or the wolf from Bad Guys hot or something, and it's so annoying when there's actual criminals admitting to and posting their crimes and getting away with it while receiving praise and encouragement from other zoos. I've also seen zoos that are minors, which is incredibly concerning and it needs to be talked about.
I also agree that feral NSFW is weird and furries need to stop shrugging it off as "It's just art! It's just drawings!" when content like that is almost always appealing to or being liked by zoophiles
I believe the fandom needs to put in more of an effort into calling out these ppl & getting them banned or even reporting them to police if the option is there. Just ignoring them is basically allowing them to continue thriving and posting nasty content
