Because it is bullshit. We see it over and over and over again, the same excuse trotted out. Military torturing people? A few bad apples. Police shooting people? A few bad apples? Police violently attacked someone who was NEARBY but not even INVOLVED in a protest and lead to his death? A few bad apples.

Bullshit bullshit bullshit bullshit!

Take the tragic and disgraceful attack on Ian Tomlinson. There are at least half a dozen police officers watching while this man is thrown to the ground and a further 6 watching when he was hit with a baton.

They watched. They watched him being attacked. They watched him fall. They didn’t help him. They didn’t report him.

100% of the police present watched this happen and did NOTHING. 100%. ALL of them. And when the first reports came out the police force angrily insisted none of it ever happened - only video footage caught by reporters proved the police - ALL THE POLICE THERE AND THEIR BOSSES - to be vicious, lying scumbags with no respect for the people they’re supposed to protect.

It is NOT a few bad apples. It is NEVER a few bad apples. Whether it’s military torturers are gun happy police or violent psycho police. They can only happen because the WHOLE FREAKING BARREL is willing to consent, to be silent, to support and to lie.

It can only happen because the whole damn barrel is rotten through and through.

And probably a very bad spelling of anthropromorphism. Maybe if I spell it differently every time I will get it right some times.

Ok my stance:

1) Not all depictions of anthropromophic animals are linked to, involved with or in any way related to the furry community. This goes without saying. Assuming that they are is unwarrented.

2) There is a furry community and a furry identity. Some sections of this are concerned with sex. Some are not. There's diversity everywhere - but most things are misunderstood from the outside. We see things - especially different cultures, subcultures and communities - from the outside and may overemphasise a part of them misunderstand their complexity or internal diversity and generally make sweeping assumptions.

3) As to furry sex my opinion on that regards any and all sex. If all are consenting and capable of consenting then rock on and pass the whipped cream!


As to my dragony-folks:
The dragons CANNOT shapeshift except for Black Dragons (and that's more illusory than anything). The Earthmother and Skyfather created them to rule and guide the world and gave them a perfect shape for it - incognito (except for the Blacks) was never considered a part of this. Even if they could and even though they engender offspring with humans this is more through magic and ritual than hot sweaty nekkedness. Apart from anything else they are entirely different species - without magic they simply couldn't produce kids. Anyway, the dragons are the size of small planes - hot sexoring is just not thesable.

The Half-dragons can and do mate with humans - usually other members of the dragon houses - and do so in conventional fashion (nekked, sweaty, count-the-legs-and-divide-by-two fashion as Terry Pratchet would put it). Their children (quarter dragons, 1/8th dragons etc etc) gradually lose draconic characteristics with every passing generation.

In the beginning of the story, it has actually been several generations since a new Half-dragon has been born :)

More Drek! But I'm totally splurging at the moment. I need to keep writing or I will stop writing. So even if it's drek, it hits the page just to get in the habit of putting fingers to keyboard.
