Yeah, Krystal is one of the more popular female characters around there...

Oh god make it stop

[Dewayne Quattlebaum]

Well what do you expect will happen if you have an "anatomicially correct" humanoid fox female wearing nothing but bra and loincloth?

Even given that majority of furries are gay men Speaking of... Nah, you don't want to know

No, no I don't.
I remember googling a digimon to make a .gif from and it was not the best search I ever done. Never type [name] and [name] into google if it is cartoon characters you're looking for, especially if they're males -.-

Don't confuse people with an addiction to plastic surgery with furries. It strikes me that if you had been reading the thread - at least those responses that were actually discussing and not trying to be clever or funny, you would have known that introducing a well-known image of plastic surgery gone wild was not even related. And, perhaps, somewhat insulting to the people that are actually trying to have a discussion about it. So it ill behooves folks (not just you) to get defensive if someone pushes back on responses that were purposefully snarky or whatever.

That was an earnest question. An earnest question qualifies as "snarky" or "disrespectful"? Riiight. I think you're revealing your biases here, if anything.

We're talking about anthropomorphism here. I was trying to clarify what kind of anthropomorphism, that is, the parametres of furry-ism. If that's snarkiness... guilty, I guess. Why would asking someone about something you have no frame of reference for, be disrespectful?

Addendum: I do find it interesting that the obvious trolls are being ignored and the people who are actually trying to engage with the topic are being vilified.

No, no I don't.

Hmm. I've never really found that much digimon furry on the interwebs. Pokemon, lots, but not to much digimon.

Er... not that I ever looked for it

[Ross]

Well, Renamon is another popular character. As both male and female

I'm the opposite, I find too much digimon stuff and nearly no Pokemon stuff but I guess my Pokemon searches are more accurate and don't give varied results like the Digimon ones, basically I don't look at Agumon the same anymore...

[Kerri Lee]

WHY DID I NOT THINK OF THIS THREAD BEFORE????

I wish i had a fursuit, but i do not. I may be able to make one, but it would look like crap.
I cant draw either.

Tell me about. I can never see Gardevoir the same way as I did before.

[Riky Carrasco]

Well do an innocent search on Agumon and Veemon - if Veemon is the blue Digimon similar to Agumon your going in the right* direction....

*Use of the word right here is very subjective, so much so I should say the wrong direction

Yep, thats veemon. Veedramon and Exveemon are his advlt stages. Jogress w/stingmon and you have paildramon which is pefect stage. Then imperialdramon which is ultimate, alternate form is fighter mode. Then imperialdramon (fighter mode) can jogress w/omegamon to get Imperialdramon Paladin mode.
I could go on about veemon's digiegg permutations, but theres a lot of them. Most notably Flamedramon (courage), magnamon (miracles) and raidramon (friendship).

Oh god, I'm a little ashamed that I know all that by memory.

Edit: and thanks for the advice, but I'd rather keep the little fragment of innocence I think I still have.

[Kim Kay]

In that case you should run away from the internet. You know that one rule, no exceptions. And i do mean none

[Yvonne]

You know something...I think I'll stick to the happy memories of Digimon season 1&2 before things got stupid/different

[Sarah Evason]

Don't turn off google safe-search.

Don't turn off google safe-search.

At least not when you aren't home alone

[Ellie English]

It doesn't always work...

Veemon is quite famous, specially on DevART. I am not a Digimon fan at all but I've accidentally found a picture of Veemon and some sort of snake. It was creepy.

[suzan]

Well what do you expect will happen if you have an "anatomicially correct" humanoid fox female wearing nothing but bra and loincloth?

Okay. I am a little bit furry. I can tolerate foxes and wouldn't mind seeing them but I prefer if she was a human, or Argonian. XD

Actually the fandom is bass-ackwards in that respect. There are a few yearly furry-surveys, and though it's not correct to say that they get a perfect representation of everything, you'd still expect the results to come out somewhat similar to what you might see in the normal populace.

The results are consistently markedly skewed from the normal populace, though, and it's weird. The normal populace shows about 5-10% of people are gay, with the rest being presumed straight. (And I think this might be where some of the issue lies, it doesn't represent bisixuality). The furry surveys have shown that heterosixuality is still the majority in the fandom, but only slightly (it leads over bisixuality by like 2%), with homosixuality at about 20%.

Stranger yet, a search of "gay" on FurAffinity brings 78765 results, whereas a search of "straight" brings 36872 results.

It's just mind-boggling to me that heterosixuality could be the majority sixuality in the fandom, and there be more than twice as much art content in relation to gay males/females than straight males and females.

Also, sorry if any of my statistics are off, as they admittedly could be. I'm working off of memory and stuff I haven't heard about in a good year or so's time.

[Nauty]

It's been a while since i saw any stats, but i seem to remember homosixual men being the biggest group Oh well, as always, i resereve the right to be wrong

But yes, gay stuff does seem to be overwhelmingly more common than straight stuff. Strange thing if your stats are correct

[.X chantelle .x Smith]

It doesn't surprise me that there would be significantly more gay content than you would expect.
When it's drawn, the artists have complete control and can make the characters look as perfect and idealistic as possible, whereas some types of 'imperfections' can be the reason someone would never want a relationship of someone of the same gender.

I... don't think it's that straight people are secretly bisixual/gay but won't go with the same gender because the same gender is ugly until drawn whereas the opposite gender isn't. I think it's that they're straight.

Edit: Here's the 2012 Furry survey so far in relation to sixuality. http://www.klisoura.com/images/survey2011/orientationgraph.png. So that's 24.5% homosixual, 33.6% bisixual, and 41.9% heterosixual, margin error +/- 1.5%. Stats were a little off from what I remember, but the deviation from the normal sixuality statistics is clear; homosixuality is a lot more common among furries than normal society. I've always kinda wondered why? Lets not answer that, actually, I can only imagine bigoted and biased answers.

[Doniesha World]

Prehaps homosixual furries are less likely to meet each other in real life than hetero furries and thus they rely more on art. And the stigma may be greater for them. Producing art is a private activity - no one knows what they drew - they don't have to 'come out' - and they can produce hundreds of images. Hence they draw more art.

Or maybe I have no idea what I'm talking about. . .

How was the data for that survey gathered? Bothering people at conventions? Web polling?

[Nina Mccormick]

No survey is perfect, so it's quite possible there's an under-representation of heterosixuals as to skew the homosixual/bisixual portions so they appear larger than they are, I can't deny that.
