[Edit] after posting this I realized that furry is not a sexual orientation, but more an identity. So sorry for reinforcing misconceptions about flurries.
I am a furry to get competent IT support
be* competent IT support
Sexual preference = kinks, positions, etc
Sexual orientation = the spectrum with hetero and homosexuality at either end, and adjacent categories such as asexuality.
Identity = a presentation of a social aspect, or the internal self-label for such things.
In other words, furry world be an identity, with yiff being a sexual preference.
First caveat: sexual preference used to be what sexual orientation is, but as society shifted to understanding that one’s sexual attractions to the gender spectrum aren’t actually voluntary, they’re inborn, preference was no longer applicable. As such, sexual preference fell out of use for that, but it’s still sometimes used as language catches up. Of more import for this comment is that the use of the term for sexual activities that are preferred is fairly new, I’ve only run across it in the last two years.
Second caveat: these aren’t dictionary definitions. Dictionaries take longer than people to codify usage changes. These are my attempt at codifying the definitions I’ve seen in the wild, and can’t be taken as authoritative, only as an attempt at clarification with all this taken into account.
Sounds about right. I never liked sexual orientation as a term, because it focuses on the gender binary like with the Kinsey scale. There isn’t a good translation for it, but I like the German word Begehren more. Translating to desire and meaning “the person idea, or thing you desire”, leaving it more open to non binary and “orientations” like asexual.
Yeah, orientation is a bit off, but if it’s used in the sense of “finding the direction”, it makes more sense. I still would have picked something like intrinsic attraction as the term, since it runs a bit closer to how things seem to work.
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?!
I got the joke either way, and it’s a good one lol
I’m actually just not a furry thx
Furry denial is classic furry behavior.
Yeah, I don’t know man. This doesn’t sound right. Actually, sounds wrong might be the better way to say that.
The problem with furries from that perspective is that they are in fact, still people, and people are terrible.
Furry is not a sexual preferences
That’s why I edited the text portion of the post.
My sexually prefer better people.
(Note that certain furries, especially the straights, are really not okay)
If animals are the better people then why would you want to bring them down to your level?
Congratulations, you’re both revolving deviants with different motivations.
oh so instead of having a healthy kink you admit you are delusional and living as an animal because of mental health issues? i mean, you can still be a furry and go to therapy
Look I tried to make a joke, it maybe a bad one, one with incorrect assumptions, but I didn’t post this to get mental health advice.
I am a furry and therian because both.
so so many people that needs therapy
4chan is back in time and on the right.
