Drag knows that being a furry isn’t all about sex. It’s mostly about liking cartoon animals. But nonetheless, drag did have a preconception of the furry community being a generally sex-positive space due to all the queer floating around. Drag recently had a bizarre experience in which a community of furries was weirdly particular about a certain dirty joke, which had never been a problem in other online communities. Are furries really sex negative compared to most people?

    I’m not a furry, but was the joke making fun of furries?

    Were the people responding to the joke itself, or were they blindly downvoting you because of your use of a third-person neo-pronoun?

      The joke is that drag’s username was, until recently, Dragon “Rider”. Because “ride” has multiple meanings. A number of furries said that drag’s username is too bawdy to say, even without quotes.
