@TraumStarke Implying I actually looked it up. I found it posted online. I guess everyone who has seen this video must've searched directly for it then. Fucking idiot.
@snipes1000 And yet you clicked it, watched the video's entirety, and even spent the effort to post a moronic comment. Thus in an abstract way your subconscious was titillated by this videos content..Do we have a future fur on our hand? Boys I think we do. Come now shuga and give ya shnooky ma a hug...right betwixt my bosoms to keep you warm and safe...so very soft and ample.
@TraumStarke The only thing moronic here is people dressing up as big fluffy animals. And you should rethink your statement, there is no possible way you could know if I watched the video or not. Did it ever cross your mind that I clicked on it just so I could share my opinion on these autists?
@snipes1000 Lulz, trying to elevate yourself much? Nigga your on a furry vid arguing with some abstractable who obviously gives two shits what you say..Im baiting your lame ass and ya respond every damn time. SO, to make ya feel like a big boy, lets keep it as is eh..I recommend any video from the right sidepanel for your fuzzy viewing pleasure. Enjoy.
Im a furry. And Im not like these people. These people are wackjobs. These people are over reacting about who they are as a Furry. And to people that think furries are like this your just completely wrong...
Why oh why do all the freaky people from the fandom have to go to the media. This makes us look like a bunch of losers who can't make real friends. I'm a furry but I'm in no way a wierdo like the people in this vid who talk about "belonging" and never growing up. I like the art and if the costume is of a high quality, I wouldn't mind owning one. I'm already an outgoing fun loving social person. I don't need to hide behind a costume to be social
@gamer81295 Please. If your in the fandom its because your already socially awkward, or a fresh anime convert masking as a furry because you think cat people are cute...To say that these individuals oddities are any more absurd than your own idiosyncrasies truly shows how egotistically naive you are.
Gah! All this video does is focus on the really strange furries! We're not all like that and now people are going to see this and assume that we're all this strange
😭🔫... BOOM!!!!!!! Btw xbox360monkey is right. That is a real survey and trust me. I KNOW FURRIES. They are really annoying. Even more so than I'il neonacrylics down there. ~{•_•}~
@NeonAcrylics ur right u cant make people accept you for who u are when its rly wierd and before u say YOUR ONLY SAYING THAT CAUSE THE INTERNET SAYS WE ARE PERVERTED SEX FREAKS In one survey, 33% of furries surveyed online answered that they had a "significant sexual interest in furry" and another 46% stated they had a "minor sexual interest in furry", and the remaining 21% stated they have a "non-sexual interest in furry"
Im not quite shure how much i agree with the statement that fursuits are used caus your not confident enough to embares your self fur real. I want a fursuit, but even though i dont have one now it dosnt mean i cant make a fool of my self, i do that all the time anyway.
@IEzioI no. It just means your not into the dressing up. I want to dress up but i cant afford one seeing how im like 14 years old. if your a furry, your a furry no matter what.
@XVaoticPediophobicX But you don't need a fursuit to be a furry, all you need is to like anthropomorfic animals, like comic/cartoon/anime characters. Some like to draw, some like to roleplay, some just enjoy see others roleplaying, afew take things a bit too serious and etc. Watch this:
If I choose to dress up like a lion why can't I hear and see like one? Because... you're still just a guy in a costume honey. I love my fursuit, I love my friends but this fandom allows anyone in it - and I mean ANYONE. Thus why we don't all get along.
If Lionel loves crafting fursuits and heads, THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH IT!
It earns him enough to live on, and makes him happy! If that's wrong, neither of you should be able to do anything but be sewer cleaners and live a sad tedious life like you seem to want to wish upon him. Right? I mean, the Fandom is about ACCEPTANCE and LOVING YOUR FELLOW HUMAN/FURRY! Love is ESSENTIAL in and for life. So why not love? At least if the world hates us, that means we are doing something right. God bless!!
May I please implore you to tell us just what scared you so emotionally?
Yeah there's the saying "Don't judge us by our idiots", however, I feel that the "idiots" are people like you two. People who hate on others cause they are diferent. People who hurt others and insult others very lives, just to make yourselves feel better ABOUT yourself. StalkingCat might be an "extremist" in loose terms, but , Know what? So is anyone who isn't DEAD-CENTER neutral!
@MrCaCaaaaaaaaa i know people who are furry, and im not a prejudice arse face like alot of people i can live with it, it doesnt hurt me so i let them be
These are the old geezers who aren't understanding the balance of having a life outside the fandom. most of the newer generations know how important it is to be human in the mix and not just a furry
to me this sounded like all that furries do are where there costumes all day and have sex in them..... thats not what they are!!! there people who like being dressed up and to just have fun... there not creepy old people.... if your just going to where a suit all day and not get a job and crap i dont see why u dont just live in the damn forest furrys are a fun why to express your self but not by having sex in them and doing every thing in them
OH WTF!!! I saw the bull suit at first and was like, Oh awesome! That fursuit is really well made! But then he turned sideways and I saw nipples and a sheath.... sadness... not hatin' on furry fetishes! Totally love the artwork and everything, but real life yiffing freaks me out.... ick.
Queer theory provides a way of challenging mainstream values and norms. The Furries symbolize resistance and social deconstruction of sexual and gender norms by creating somewhat erotic fantasies, which is considered unusual by social standards. Queer theory allows for new and creative ways of personal expressions to be the forefront of social resistance.
These people have found an outlet in which to express themselves. They have found new identities and a place in which to let these identities grow. When that one man in this video asks, “Why can't I be a lion person? There is no reason why if you decide to look like a line why you can't hear and see like one as well." This is an example of what queer theory is all about trying to redefine what is considered normal.
There is a feeling of liberation/ freedom in being anonymous. when we are not exposed to the world by using our true identity we are free do whatever we want and be our true selves. According to queer theory this (dressing as a furry) is an abnormal behavior in the society. however it could be reasoned that its every ones wish to be anonymous, hence despite the fact that not many are willing to break the societal norms it’s a comprehensible behavior.
It seems that according to Queer Theory, these individuals have managed to break through societally accepted views of "identity" and can embrace the fact that they are people and they like to dress up as or be surrounded by animals. That aspect of their lives doesn't have to define them, but it can if they want it to (and they have a groupof people that accepts them as they are). They have embraced their own identities, and have labeled themselves the way they want.
In contrast, by choosing to take on a role and dress in a certain way, Furries are also choosing how they want their particular society to perceive and categorize them. The ability to choose their identities allows Furries to participate in advancing the cause of Queer theory.
Queer theory deconstructs social binaries in order to produce greater awareness, understanding, and acceptance of the expansive and diverse space between what is deemed normal, versus what is deemed abnormal, especially in regards to gender and sexuality. Both gender and sexuality, in my opinion, are mind-sets which individuals are born into and have no choice over. Therefore, individuals also have no choice in how their society will perceive and categorize their innate identity.
Queer theory challenges the meaning of what our society has labeled “normal” and therefore, in the case of furries, individuals that choose to dress up and run around “feeling free,” are in turn deconstructing the abnormality of their activity. Furthermore, queer theory would focus on the notion of hiding their identity, and blurring the realms of gender.
However, are "norms" defined by the majority always be correct? Those people in the video feel more comfortable in furry suits, which shows the rationality of this deviation.
" 'To queer' is to render “normal” sexuality as strange and unsettled, to challenge heterosexuality as a naturalized social-sexual norm and promote the notion of “non-straightness,” challenging the hegemony of "straight" ideology." Similar to the challenge to the norm of heterosexuality, here people wearing furry suits are also challenging to the norm of a "normal" self identity. They are challenging to norms that are accepted by the majority in the society.
Furries deconstruct the binaries between normal and abnormal/deviant as they feel more comfortable being abnormal. By challenging what is “normal” and “accepted” they reconstruct themselves as the other. It’s clear from the clip and posted comments that there are obviously varying levels of intensity in the furry world – from wearing a suit occasionally for fun, to undergoing permanent body mods to appear more like the animal. This in turn creates an even blurrier scale of “otherness.”
Queer theory is about rendering the abnormal with in normality. It describes a moment of transition and blurring of the lines. These people who are 'furries' are socially queer/ abnormal, acting within societies normality. They still act as people at times, but part "furry" at other times, this illustrates the blurring between the lines.
Queer theory "blurs the lines" on what is considered "normal" or "different" within a particular situation. Since the vast majority of our culture chooses not to dress as a furries, it is considered to be deviant. The lines of normalcy are blurred as these furries attempt to create a group outside of societies accepted folkways.
An interesting thing to focus on with respect to the relationship between queer theory and furries, and something I haven’t seen anyone else note yet, is the literal queering of texts that occurs from the perspective of the furry him/herself. I’m thinking of Disney movies like “The Lion King” and “The Adventures of Robin Hood” as texts which have been queered by furries in such a manner as to directly oppose their formal roles as children’s films.
Queer theory focuses on the "blurring of the lines"--the area between what is commonly accepted and what is not. For furries, the lines are definitely blurred as it is against social norms to dress up as or act as an animal, but the acceptance and camaraderie that exists among the group of furries is a very normal human desire. Queer theory would also highlight the constant transitory movements and transitions of furries from human to animal form and their impact on these individuals.
Furries would definitely be considered to be part of queer theory because furries are seen as abnormal, "queer", strange. alienated and they only feel accepted and themselves when they are with other furries . Queer theory attempts to explain their challenges on creating an identity that is outside the norms of society.
The queer theory applies when desired behaviors and/or identities are considered as deviants of the norm. In this case, these people dressed in furrysuits as everyday clothes make them the abnormals, or “queers”. But they find their sense of identity and belongings when they met each other and live together. This is similar to the situation of gays and lesbians.
furries find comfort in wearing a mask or costume and hiding their natural bodies. This is seen as a deviant because acting and behaving like children recreating the movements and actions of animals. Queer theory attempts to identify the deviant perception of furries and societies view of masking ones identity. Furthermore, all though not all furries act or behave sexually while in costume, the perception is that the person is a sexual deviant. Yet associations and conventions fight against the
Queer theory would explain this phenomenon via an identity crisis, perhaps even to go as far as to include sexuality or even gender. The interesting thing about the gender aspect though is that some of the furries in this video accessorize and dress up themselves with skirts and things to symbolize a specific gender. The identity of furries is one that is obviously in the forefront of their minds, this is how they identify which deviates from the norm--likely what queer theory would focus on.
These individuals deviate from the cultural norms prescribed by society. Furries retreat into a fantasy world where they find fulfilment and are provided with the assurance that normative society could not supply.
Queer Theory encompasses behaviours that deviate from the norm, and the Furry is a type of identity that fits into this definition. The Fury is actively challenging the norm, specially if they go around using such costumes, making it easy to identify their "deviantness." By openly presenting themselves as Furries, they can also find peers that share their ideas and thus create an alternate culture that could eventually lead to acceptance due to it's normalization through Queerness
Within the media, these abnormal or “queer” types of behavior are gaining more attention in the public sphere. With TLC introducing shows such as “Strange Sex” or “Weird Food”, behaviors such as dressing up in a furry costume are breaking the norm and creating interest, possibly just for entertainment value, but also contributing to the formation of abnormal fetish groups that can support, accept and understand one another. See Strange Sex - Balloon Fetish Guy which aired on TLC’s “Strange Sex”
If we look at the story in the perspectives of the flurries, wearing furrysuit grants them the sense of selfhood, and makes them feel liberated. They do not feel complete for who they are. This group of furries have acceptence among themselves as flurries, but they are preceived as queer in the mainstream ideology. (anything different is abnormal - human don't have tails)
If a component of queer theory is identifying a middleground between two binaries and embracing it, then we can certainly view humans and animals as these binaries. The furries depicted here are self-admittedly hybrids of the two: animal people (as per leopard girl.)
Individuals in this clip demonstrate a specific interest in and understanding of the animal persona they take up and it enables individuals to connect with one another through their devotion to being a furry. Queer theory would explain furries as an expression of identity (including sexual identity) which falls outside of the normative heterosexual boundary, resulting in both exclusion (from the normative) and unification (with others with similar identities and interests).
These furries discuss how they have the support of each other and how by not following the social script they feel more free and more like themselves. Queer theory examines how individuals break the norm but still have social acceptance. Many people would find these furries as abnormal and "queer" because it is not normal for people to dress up as animals but these individuals are happy to do so and they have a social group that supports their "queer' desire.
@DrMVUA Queer theory attempts to explain how these people deconstruct the process of creating and maintaining identity and how these deviant or "unnatural" identities are able to resist change or heteronormativity. Socially constructed identities that are viewed by society as normal are challenged by flurries who deviate from the norm yet are able to be socially embraced due to the large support group they possess - this is what queer theory would attempt to deconstruct.
i cant stand people who go after this if dont like the life style then walk away and go do somthing else instead of being ignorant by posting rude comments
Furries are the scum of the earth, and the surest candidates for dying alone. The furry fandom will accept ANYONE, and hence attracts the worst and most pathetic people in the world. Furries are so ugly that they make Brian Peppers look attractive, so stupid that they make autistics look smart, and pathetic beyond compare. FAIL doesn't even begin to encompass how bad furries do in life. Dying alone is the best they can do.

@ThEggshell in all fairness, any religion can encompass a multitude of personalities, it's not just furries that end up with lowlifes. so can we go with stereotypical furries? like, people who would fall under the category of furry don't usually take their expression of it this far. most just sort of check out the art, and draw themselves. when it becomes disturbingly beastial, i'll let you say harsh things. but not to a good amount of the fandom that is actually pretty much normal people.
@ThEggshell The fandom accepts anyone. Are you honestly trying to say that's a bad thing about furries?
Yea, people can be messed up, but who cares? What others do is up to them.
I'm sure that you're the best looking person in the world and that allows you to generalize all furries as ugly, right? Also, are you saying people with autism are stupid? Autism is a social disorder that often doesn't affect the development of logic or learning.

i totaly agree with the furry idea but mini documentaries like this just seem to cast it in a shadow that makes it seem wierd hell i cant tell if this is a pro or neg video (well i can but its harder than it should be)
Yeah, this was pretty dumb, but one really can't define the furry fandom because there is just too many fucking aspects and sects of it. It is kind of like God (NOT SAYING THAT THE FANDOM IS GOD OR IS A RELIGION....idiots..) but dif. religions have their own interpretations of God, like furries have their own interpretations of their fandom. So all that furries really can be said to have in common is an interest in anthropomorphic characters.
@EdTheBadass Why people do this? Different reasons and different degrees. Some people have a fetish. Some people simply like to draw animals as a hobby. Others go deeper. For example, some people cannot bear to witness man's inhumanity to man, and chose to cut themselves off from humanity as they turn towards animals. They see animals as morally perfect, and incapable of wrongdoing, and see humans as idiots, assholes, and ignorant douches.
How the hell does the media find these people for reviews, i mean theres like thousands of the normal ones yet they choose the few weird ones and make it all around them O.o
Fucking freaks something seriously wrong with anyone who wants to be a animals. Honestly, I'm taking a shot in the dark and guessing that maybe 80% of the people who ahve watched this have molested their dogs.
I want to be a furry I have friends and had friends as a Kid too. I had no idea animal pol existed when I was little. I don't over animals These aren't furies they're creeps
BTW this is NOT!! Furry these are the dumb asses of are fandom..
We try to keep them away from the media but they wonder around dumbfounded looking for any attenuation they can get. These are the ones that make us look bad because they say dumb shit on TV ..
@FILTERSGODAMMIT I still think you're making a VERY broad statement. You still don't exactly grasp what it means to be a furry, or what the furry fandom truly is.
@FILTERSGODAMNIT Then look up 'furry' on WIKIpedia. You get basically the same facts.
I'm a furry, but I wouldn't even think of doing these things. This is for furries who have fetishes, which is just a select group of individuals. Not the whole furry fandom.
A secular society with respect for individual rights would banish furries for their lack of a personality capable of identifying with something else than the animals they so desperately envy

Queer theory provides a way of challenging mainstream values and norms. The Furries symbolize resistance and social deconstruction of sexual and gender norms by creating somewhat erotic fantasies, which is considered unusual by social standards. Queer theory allows for new and creative ways of personal expressions to be the forefront of social resistance.

These people have found an outlet in which to express themselves. They have found new identities and a place in which to let these identities grow. When that one man in this video asks, “Why can't I be a lion person? There is no reason why if you decide to look like a line why you can't hear and see like one as well." This is an example of what queer theory is all about trying to redefine what is considered normal.

There is a feeling of liberation/ freedom in being anonymous. when we are not exposed to the world by using our true identity we are free do whatever we want and be our true selves. According to queer theory this (dressing as a furry) is an abnormal behavior in the society. however it could be reasoned that its every ones wish to be anonymous, hence despite the fact that not many are willing to break the societal norms it’s a comprehensible behavior.

It seems that according to Queer Theory, these individuals have managed to break through societally accepted views of "identity" and can embrace the fact that they are people and they like to dress up as or be surrounded by animals. That aspect of their lives doesn't have to define them, but it can if they want it to (and they have a groupof people that accepts them as they are). They have embraced their own identities, and have labeled themselves the way they want.

In contrast, by choosing to take on a role and dress in a certain way, Furries are also choosing how they want their particular society to perceive and categorize them. The ability to choose their identities allows Furries to participate in advancing the cause of Queer theory.
ES344 8 months ago
Queer theory deconstructs social binaries in order to produce greater awareness, understanding, and acceptance of the expansive and diverse space between what is deemed normal, versus what is deemed abnormal, especially in regards to gender and sexuality. Both gender and sexuality, in my opinion, are mind-sets which individuals are born into and have no choice over. Therefore, individuals also have no choice in how their society will perceive and categorize their innate identity.
ES344 8 months ago
Queer theory challenges the meaning of what our society has labeled “normal” and therefore, in the case of furries, individuals that choose to dress up and run around “feeling free,” are in turn deconstructing the abnormality of their activity. Furthermore, queer theory would focus on the notion of hiding their identity, and blurring the realms of gender.

However, are "norms" defined by the majority always be correct? Those people in the video feel more comfortable in furry suits, which shows the rationality of this deviation.
ann920319 8 months ago
" 'To queer' is to render “normal” sexuality as strange and unsettled, to challenge heterosexuality as a naturalized social-sexual norm and promote the notion of “non-straightness,” challenging the hegemony of "straight" ideology." Similar to the challenge to the norm of heterosexuality, here people wearing furry suits are also challenging to the norm of a "normal" self identity. They are challenging to norms that are accepted by the majority in the society.
ann920319 8 months ago
Furries deconstruct the binaries between normal and abnormal/deviant as they feel more comfortable being abnormal. By challenging what is “normal” and “accepted” they reconstruct themselves as the other. It’s clear from the clip and posted comments that there are obviously varying levels of intensity in the furry world – from wearing a suit occasionally for fun, to undergoing permanent body mods to appear more like the animal. This in turn creates an even blurrier scale of “otherness.”
womynswrites 8 months ago
Queer theory is about rendering the abnormal with in normality. It describes a moment of transition and blurring of the lines. These people who are 'furries' are socially queer/ abnormal, acting within societies normality. They still act as people at times, but part "furry" at other times, this illustrates the blurring between the lines.
tcarter666 8 months ago
Queer theory "blurs the lines" on what is considered "normal" or "different" within a particular situation. Since the vast majority of our culture chooses not to dress as a furries, it is considered to be deviant. The lines of normalcy are blurred as these furries attempt to create a group outside of societies accepted folkways.
1221sabmur 8 months ago
An interesting thing to focus on with respect to the relationship between queer theory and furries, and something I haven’t seen anyone else note yet, is the literal queering of texts that occurs from the perspective of the furry him/herself. I’m thinking of Disney movies like “The Lion King” and “The Adventures of Robin Hood” as texts which have been queered by furries in such a manner as to directly oppose their formal roles as children’s films.
newideasinmath 8 months ago
Queer theory focuses on the "blurring of the lines"--the area between what is commonly accepted and what is not. For furries, the lines are definitely blurred as it is against social norms to dress up as or act as an animal, but the acceptance and camaraderie that exists among the group of furries is a very normal human desire. Queer theory would also highlight the constant transitory movements and transitions of furries from human to animal form and their impact on these individuals.
serafinib 8 months ago
Furries would definitely be considered to be part of queer theory because furries are seen as abnormal, "queer", strange. alienated and they only feel accepted and themselves when they are with other furries . Queer theory attempts to explain their challenges on creating an identity that is outside the norms of society.
riya12335 8 months ago
The queer theory applies when desired behaviors and/or identities are considered as deviants of the norm. In this case, these people dressed in furrysuits as everyday clothes make them the abnormals, or “queers”. But they find their sense of identity and belongings when they met each other and live together. This is similar to the situation of gays and lesbians.

furries find comfort in wearing a mask or costume and hiding their natural bodies. This is seen as a deviant because acting and behaving like children recreating the movements and actions of animals. Queer theory attempts to identify the deviant perception of furries and societies view of masking ones identity. Furthermore, all though not all furries act or behave sexually while in costume, the perception is that the person is a sexual deviant. Yet associations and conventions fight against the
JCMW90 8 months ago
Queer theory would explain this phenomenon via an identity crisis, perhaps even to go as far as to include sexuality or even gender. The interesting thing about the gender aspect though is that some of the furries in this video accessorize and dress up themselves with skirts and things to symbolize a specific gender. The identity of furries is one that is obviously in the forefront of their minds, this is how they identify which deviates from the norm--likely what queer theory would focus on.

These individuals deviate from the cultural norms prescribed by society. Furries retreat into a fantasy world where they find fulfilment and are provided with the assurance that normative society could not supply.
jjrexx11 8 months ago
Queer Theory encompasses behaviours that deviate from the norm, and the Furry is a type of identity that fits into this definition. The Fury is actively challenging the norm, specially if they go around using such costumes, making it easy to identify their "deviantness." By openly presenting themselves as Furries, they can also find peers that share their ideas and thus create an alternate culture that could eventually lead to acceptance due to it's normalization through Queerness
Schmetterling190 8 months ago
Within the media, these abnormal or “queer” types of behavior are gaining more attention in the public sphere. With TLC introducing shows such as “Strange Sex” or “Weird Food”, behaviors such as dressing up in a furry costume are breaking the norm and creating interest, possibly just for entertainment value, but also contributing to the formation of abnormal fetish groups that can support, accept and understand one another. See Strange Sex - Balloon Fetish Guy which aired on TLC’s “Strange Sex”
pvillepink 8 months ago
If we look at the story in the perspectives of the flurries, wearing furrysuit grants them the sense of selfhood, and makes them feel liberated. They do not feel complete for who they are. This group of furries have acceptence among themselves as flurries, but they are preceived as queer in the mainstream ideology. (anything different is abnormal - human don't have tails)
2014yahoo 8 months ago
If a component of queer theory is identifying a middleground between two binaries and embracing it, then we can certainly view humans and animals as these binaries. The furries depicted here are self-admittedly hybrids of the two: animal people (as per leopard girl.)

Individuals in this clip demonstrate a specific interest in and understanding of the animal persona they take up and it enables individuals to connect with one another through their devotion to being a furry. Queer theory would explain furries as an expression of identity (including sexual identity) which falls outside of the normative heterosexual boundary, resulting in both exclusion (from the normative) and unification (with others with similar identities and interests).

These furries discuss how they have the support of each other and how by not following the social script they feel more free and more like themselves. Queer theory examines how individuals break the norm but still have social acceptance. Many people would find these furries as abnormal and "queer" because it is not normal for people to dress up as animals but these individuals are happy to do so and they have a social group that supports their "queer' desire.

@DrMVUA Queer theory attempts to explain how these people deconstruct the process of creating and maintaining identity and how these deviant or "unnatural" identities are able to resist change or heteronormativity. Socially constructed identities that are viewed by society as normal are challenged by flurries who deviate from the norm yet are able to be socially embraced due to the large support group they possess - this is what queer theory would attempt to deconstruct.

@ThEggshell in all fairness, any religion can encompass a multitude of personalities, it's not just furries that end up with lowlifes. so can we go with stereotypical furries? like, people who would fall under the category of furry don't usually take their expression of it this far. most just sort of check out the art, and draw themselves. when it becomes disturbingly beastial, i'll let you say harsh things. but not to a good amount of the fandom that is actually pretty much normal people.
