I'm sure by now people familiar with my gallery know that I revolve around two main themes that I use constantly. However, I'm sure not many people know how ridiculously narrow my views are on these two themes, and how an art can be loved or ignored by me, based on small things XD
Now first off, I'm not saying other ways of using these themes are wrong or shouldn't be done, I'm just saying they're not my cup of tea and it actually led me to creating my gallery so that I could see things the way I wanted XD
I noticed that for the "headless" theme, the biggest idea tends to be a body where the head doesn't exist anymore. However, I find that by losing your head you lose your personality entirely and just become an object to be fantasized over. Any time I see dialogue where a lady is like "I've lost my head, and I love it!" I can't help but >.> Your head is you, your body is just what you control to move around, that's why I always correct people when they call my head it XP
Again, I have nothing against people that do this or enjoy it, but I simply like the idea that the head is still fine, can be reattached and appear totally normal whenever they want. The same can be said about a head without a body since it makes the person too helpless, but I don't see that done all too often XD
That's my thoughts in a nutshell at least, if anyone's got any questions or wants a clarification lemme know @-@
If anyone is curious about my thoughts on my other main theme lemme know and I might do an art about that one with an explanation as well XD
Feel free to comment ^^

I occurs that the distinction between you and your body vs. you and your head is perspective. From yours, you are unequivocally your head. That's where your point of view, and the entirety of all but one of your senses are located. From mine, most of 'you' is your body, which is still up, moving around, responding and, as likely as not, bashing into things. In the common scenario I see you searching for your head, whereas from your perspective you're directing your body to where you are.
Oh, and by the way, I had noticed you deliberately assigning the 'self' to the head in your dialogue, it stood out to me particularly in Game Time 2.

I have to agree personally that you have much the right idea. From my perspective, you need both head and body. There's nothing you can really do without the body, and with no head whatsoever, you have yourself an equally useless individual. (Not Politically Correct, but I doubt there are any people out there with only a sense of touch who would notice this enough to complain. It's not like you can read FA comments via braille.)
Now, I'll admit that sometimes, all one wants is an object to fantasize over. And that's their prerogative. I have done, on occasion, RPs where a subject's head is completely gone on a temporary basis. But this works on a temporary basis and at the end, the head does get restored. That's just my preference in cases where the head has to go. Or at the very least, if you can't bring the head back itself, something to allow expression and personality of some sort.
Now, where the identity goes is very much a case by case basis for a lot of this. I personally like to think of them both as the self, which may seem somewhat schizoid and confusing, but it's really no less logical from when a driver assigns "self" to both his own being and the car he is currently driving. Of course, if the driver leaves the car, the car can't do anything, while in the headless furries set-up, the body can still look for the head, or the head can guide the body to it, through whatever fundamental connection is needed for the whole thing to work in the first place, so why not see them both as you? Sometimes, the fur in question just refers to their head as an object simply on the basis of that's how they were first exposed to the routine, since that particular treatment of identity is probably what they saw on TV or in most works of fiction that don't necessarily fetishize the subject.
Hm. Quite the ramble. I guess the point is that you have a good point and have opened up a bit of a forum for others to express what they think.

Well, temporary is fine I suppose, but I still >.> whenever they say how wonderful it is that they finally get to become their own fantasy of virtually a sex slave XP But yeah, as I said multiple times that's just some people's fantasizes and they're more then welcomed to having them, I just won't have any part of them, just cause I like a parallel theme XD
If you think about cars though, they're someones "baby" they don't consider them an extension of their arm or anything. Plus in the case of heads calling their bodies to pick them up, they often do stuff like "Hey idiot, I'm over here!" Making the body seem like a separate individual that only appears when the head is detached and it's only mental ability comes down to "find the head, find the head" almost like a robot without a personality.
In the end though, everyone has their own preferences and ideas on how things should operate. I just wanted to make it clear that I do have limits to what I like in this area XD
