Hmmmm, so true. I actualy was pondering this today. And all that you
say makes sense. I don't have a fursona, but I'm into it enough to be
considered one, I do wager. It is funny, though. So many people have

weird for liking such stuff. Well there's a saying I've always liked.
They laughed at me for being weird. I laughed at them all for being
the same.
