[Serious] What is the public opinion of furries?
This might be a controversial topic.
The fandom can't seem to make up their mind about what the public thinks of them.
Example A: I see people who say:
"I had a fursuit on and everyone was staring at me weird."
"People think the fandom is all about sex."
Example B: At the same time, there are just as many that say:
"I told my parents that I was a furry and they were totally cool with it."
"I had my fursuit on and a lot of people wanted to take a picture with me."
EVIDENCE
Exhibit A:
Someone who believes that the public thinks that furries only have sex
Someone who thinks people will question their sexuality if they use a furry wallpaper
QUOTE: "It makes me feel weird telling people I'm a furry cause they automatically think 'Oh you like animal sex.'"
Furries are the most inconsiderate fanbase. (1200 upvotes)
Exhibit B:
Person who believes you don't have to "come out" as a furry
The people of Pittsburgh love furries.
All the good stuff that furries do. (400 upvotes)
What do people think of furries? Is it a mixed-opinions kind of thing? Is it different from person to person?
What has been your experience?
