Hey guys, just a little curious about something. Someone brought up a question in the "fanart" thread in offtopic. I'm curious if there's any truth to it, and of your opinions. Was that personally the case with you?
The original question asked about why so many conservative leaning/heavily religious/patriotic sonic fanarts.

How can i be a furry?
In my opinion? They are young people in very conservative households who are restricted to the most well known or family friendly game franchises by parents. Then they discover the internet communities and it's the only thing they've really been a fan of.
Either that or some of it's made ironically, which is highly likely.
Ah that sounds very plausible.
Im pretty sure most people here dislike sonic
99% of that awesome fan art thread looks to be drawn by children going through some kind of really awkward puberty
Well I'm not just saying Sonic. Just curious if furry fans are more likely to come from a conservative household or not.
Furry in general? Don't know, there are far too many examples. As far into the furry closet as I am, I never had that background. I just think the art I post in here is cool.
Ed: Was referring to the patriotic/religious cartoon fan art in my last post.
Not myself, nor any that I know have that kind of affiliation.
I think its more that horrible things tend to end up together.

I did not, my parents were about as far from conservative as you can get.

I'd think this is the most likely case as well (both people drawing from life experience, and professional trolls).
But it's difficult to tell the difference between the two sometimes...
I've encountered a good number of genuinely right-wing furries, though I suppose "gun nut" is a better term than "right-wing" even if they fall to the right on politics. They're very anti-social types, some of them seem to fantasize about civilization collapse and whatnot. I suspect they're furries because it lets them be "not human", so they can see themselves as immune to or otherwise 'above' the failings of human society.

I have a friend like that, although he's more left of center. It took like a decade form him to finally stop talking to me about guns.

Oh right, it's done by senpukki-chan.
It's a buff canine in a police uniform (or lack thereof). What more could I say?
Anatomical impossibilities is the wrong phrase. Perhaps simply "impossibilities", such as sweat beads on fur.
Or blush marks.
Or that level of muscle definition, although I guess they're all related to this dog.

Nah, he doesn't have a physical disorder, for one thing.
Also artist is Japanese, what do you expect?
If Solatorobo/Tail Concerto starred him or Doggie and are shirtless throughout the game I'd always play it. @_@

Calling bullshit here. I've seen enough on pixiv.

I'm talking about sweat drops and blushing through fur. And yes I've been in pixiv as well.
Oh yeah, sorry, blushing has become some sort of contaigon. Even knees blush now.

Moving on from shine spots on boobs to everything else. Guess everyone being 'cute embarrased' is the in thing nowadays
It's just too easy to add some lines/pink shading to a face. But I guess I overlook it most of the time, along with the other usual 'anime'-type visual tropes.

I don't care too much about the blushing thing
they're wearing clothing which makes just as little sense as it is from an evolutionary perspective
part of why I like characters that aren't distinguishably animal is that they don't incite preconceptions about what is possible
in short

I went through the few demos that were out, but I still think that the scenarios are taking a bit long to come out. But I'm not up to date on their dev process anyway, what with it being free and all, so I don't know.
As an aside, random fantasy (really liking that Pixiv Fantasia stuff):

Part of it is lack of awareness. The other part is there's hardly a reason to go into Community on a regular basis, unless you were already following a thread that ended up here. Even then, it's only to that specific thread, and not necessarily to any others.

I love when Fur-Gaf overloads the funny pictures threads. Those are the best days
