Linked to wikipedia, just to make sure no one googles it and gets the wrong idea about the fandom.

1. Some things are best left in fantasy land.
Like love with anthropomorphic animals. Sure, in a sci-fi smut story its great, but when people actually start putting on the costumes things go south in my opinion...

Oh, are you telling me there's anti-furry bias on here? Are we freaking because it's weird and we don't understand it? Isn't that why... a lot of people are homophobic?

2. I thought you meant furrybears,

hairy gay guys, which I love, being one of them myself.
Otherwise, I checked the links (at least the first) and while the statistics there suggest there are a lot of gay/bi "furries" -- people who love animal characters and dress up like them -- the whole thing sounds kind of stupid (if harmless), to me at least, unless it's an (unlikely) indication of bestialist tendencies. It sort of reminds me of people who used to go to Honeymooners conventions and dress up like Ralph Kramden and Alice and all that. I like The Honeymooners, but still -- get a life!
Yeah, I'm sure someone will want to attack me for saying this, but I think anyone over the age of eight who wants to dress up like a funny little animal might have maturity issues, but that's my opinion.
GLBT -F?
I don't think so.
And GLBT- B for bestiality. Let's hope never.
So I'm with Napoloen on this one.

27. I = Intersexed
which is the new term for hermaphrodites. Intersexed people don't have both sexual organs (of men and women) as in story and legend but rather a combination of both. Parents generally choose what sex to define them as when they're young, but when they become older they can choose to define themselves as another sex, and surgery can help with this. With only a couple of hundred intersexed people in the US and maybe a couple thousand worldwide -- don't have statistics at hand -- some people might label it a medical condition as opposed to a true minority group. Whatever, they shouldn't be discriminated against, of course. Not an easy situation to be in. I'm sure.
Some might feel they're a sub-category of transsexual, only in the sense that they also get surgery and can "transition," in a way, from one sex to the other.

They are not quite sure what line to take on the Furry Community.
I am pretty relaxed about what consenting adults get up to in private, but I don't want to see people demanding the right to come to work dressed as a badger.

A lot of people get into furries. It generates a lot of internet comix. sci-fi, fantasy, soap opera...even furrie porn.
Furries generally make cartoons a little too human for my likes.

You know, I feel kind of weird when my dog is in the same room with my husband and I so I'm certainly not going to dress up like one.
