    How are your feelings towards them neutral if you don’t recognize them as normal human beings? Are they lesser human beings because they like to put on silly costumes?

      A substantial majority of people do not fetishize (not necessarily sexualize) anthropomorphic animals, dress in ears and tails, or wear full on fursuits. Furries are not normal by definition. Being abnormal is not intrinsically bad.

      It’s generally good! Diversity of thought and behavior, like genetics, leads to healthy and robust systems.

        Sorry, I got kinda mad because I hate when a group of people gets bullied just because others see them as weird and I thought this was an instance of this happening. You’re right tho.
