3: i feel like the furry community doesn't interrogate me as much as other spaces? i don't need to "prove" im a furry and if im into this niche or that its just generally treated as whatevs, not some weird war i gotta pick sides in.
coming from gaming communities that's very refreshing. i also appreciate (in comparison) that the community has so many adults, women, LGBT+, not all cishet teenage boys and their idols.
