Ik you probably won't post this, but I know you'll see it.

Furries are weird af and nasty, YOU ARE A HUMAN NOT AN ANIMAL. Please don't dehumanize and disrespect yourself like this.

It's just so incredibly degrading to watch a human refer to themself as an animal, and if you do genuinely feel like an animal, then that's a mental health problem. If it's just a pretend, then that's extremely degrading and embarrassing to watch.

That's all byeeeee!

Break out the party hats, fellas, we got our first anon hate! A real milestone, I'm not joking when I say this made me feel accomplished.

That being said. I'm sure you aren't interested in being educated, given…everything, but I'll give it a shot.

"Ik you probably won't post this, but I know you'll see it" First off, wrong. Get posted. Second, you're just openly admitting this is a personal attack. And…I'm not hurt at all, so it didn't work. Good job buddy 👍

"Furries are weird AF and nasty" Yeah, some of us are, and that's great. No generalising, thank youuu. We don't do that around these parts.

"You are a human not an animal, please don't dehumanise and disrespect yourself like this" Okay, first off, this is a poor understanding of what a furry is. Many of us don't believe we're animals, that's a whole other thing entirely, which is also just as awesome and doesn't deserve hate. Second, thanks for your concern, but if someone is dehumanising themself, I'm pretty sure they're okay with it. As long as we aren't being disrespected, though 🫩 Can you imagine?

It's not degrading. Like…there's no debate there, that's just a fact.

And, if you're embarrassed by us, keep doing that. Furries'll always be the ones having fun and being ourselves. You can't ruin that :3

To summarise…this is the pinnacle of anthromisia. And probably…ableism, I'm guessing? With the mental health comment.

That's all byeeeee!

Scrolling for youtube to look for furry dance compilations and instead seeing this video by a judgemental fuckhead called "furries vs therians which is worse"

This is anthromisia and I believe alterhumisia? @this-is-alterhumisia correct me if I'm wrong.

What's even the point in a video like that? Worse? What does that even mean?

As both a furry and a therian, keep me away from that creator. They might have a heart attack 😱

Welcome, furry folk and friends alike!

As the title implies, this is a blog dedicated to identifying, highlighting and validating experiences of hatred and bigotry towards the furry community and individuals. Inspired by the likes of @this-is-ableism @thisis-intersexism @this-is-fatphobia @thisis-aphobia @this-is-ageism @this-is-amato-heteronormativity and similar blogs.

I'd rather keep my identity secret, just know I use he/him pronouns, and can probably be referred to as simply "mod" if ever necessary.

For clarification, anyone is welcome here. Obviously anyone that sends hate or expresses open bigotry will be promptly blocked, but submissions are not restricted to exclusively furries, if a non-furry has witnessed or directly encountered a form of furry hate, submissions are very much welcome.

I do not discriminate. If you're worried I will think negatively of you due to any aspect of your identity, be it sexuality, gender identity, religious beliefs, or otherwise, ignore those thoughts. I won't.

This blog is run by a sex-repulsed individual. You may bring up topics of sexuality and possibly kink, but keep details to a minimum whenever possible, I'd really rather not hear them.

Also remember, I am not infallible, I will make mistakes. All I ask is that this is understood, respected and approached in a reasonable manner.

Note: I am boycotting YouTube so I won't be viewing any YouTube links I might be sent. Apologies in advance.

I was planning out a fursuit head and buying a base for an owl head for cosplay, and went to chat with my mom about how expensive it was, but how it would cost so much more to just get one commissioned, and she looked at me and said, "You know you can't do that all the time, right?"

And with the most of-course-I-know-are-you-stupid tone I could muster, I paused, looked at her, and said, "Yeah. Of course."

Because, while I have two heads and a dinomask now, with a third head in the works (all three made from scratch), I don't want to wear a sauna that inhibits my ability to see and hear 24/7. Also my kiwi head gets fur in my eyes

But it's mainly that assumption of "oh, you want to BE an animal" because her pos boyfriend binges nothing but Fox "News". Ma'am, you had better admire my creativity and stop being Like That before I cut you off for your general bigoted behavior all together

This is anthromisia.

Honestly, I would wear a fursuit all the time if I could, and yeah I do want to be an animal. They're still separate, though. It's honestly been pretty surprising exactly how many submissions I've received on this blog have simply been people misunderstanding what a furry even is. Not that they'd be supportive if they did.

In any case, I wish you luck with your creations, and I bet the masks you do have look amazing! They always do.

why is harassing fursuiters so fucking normalized?? a group of teenage boys were following me with their car in my neighborhood (like circling the block to see me over and over) and yelling racial slurs at me, telling me to "take that shit off"

sure there wasnt like... a TON of people nearby but i was in a tight knit neighborhood, you'd think someone would have seen or done something.

just makes me sad that on the same walk i got to entertain two little kids playing in their front yard because WOAH GIANT DOGGY! i get followed by boys old enough to know this is an actual crime to be committing

This is anthromisia.

Wearing a fursuit in public, honestly sounds incredible. Owning a fursuit is a personal goal of mine, and using it in public is a dream. People that can't appreciate that make me sick. It's harmless, beautiful self expression, and it's people like that, that choose anger for no reason, that ruin things such as this. I hope it's otherwise been enjoyable, because. Know that if I saw someone in a fursuit like you, I would absolutely ask for a hug :3

When I was 12 years old and playing an Undertale roleplay game on Roblox. Someone in the server was saying that furries are "attracted to animals" and a "disgrade to society" (my Roblox avatar at the time was an orange tabby cat with demon wings and horns).

This is anthromisia.

Furries are…neither of those. Why do people have such a hard time realising that not all furries are sexual? And even when they are, it's very different being attracted to anthros than real animals.

Okay, one at a time. Here we go.

(I will be addressing revvingantlers directly throughout this post, not anon)

I do not support zoophilia as a practice. I support harmless zoophiles who do not act on their paraphilia in a harmful way.

"All paraphiles should seek psychiatric help" Okay, I am far from an expert on this, but…in an ideal world, this would be a viable option, but I can't imagine it's that easy or safe for one to admit to something like a paraphilia to somebody that could theoretically get them forcibly institutionalised. Still, I am no expert, and my word should not be taken as fact. I am open to learning, in a respectful manner. Of which you are not providing.

Okay, I used "they" because I genuinely did not remember you by name. I had no idea you had sent me an ask before because I couldn't recall your name, when I was told about you I assumed you were some random guy I hadn't met. For that,I apologise. I used "they" as sort of a universal default to those I don't know the pronouns of. And I couldn't have looked at your blog because I blocked you when you tried to antagonise me.

"You claim to be the arbiter of all things "anthromisia" but can't even understand the most satire post you have ever seen." Okay, I never claimed that. I'm a bored, lonely young man that's simply trying to find community, help people, and be appreciated. I noticed a void and filled it. I made this blog because nobody else did and I thought I was adequately qualified.

And I didn't understand your post because I'm very autistic and can't often read tone. But I'm not calling you ableist. I hadn't said anywhere I'm autistic, and I decided to take your comment in good faith. I'd recommend you give it a go.

Someone tried to get my attention once by shouting "FURRY, HEY ANIMAL" at me. worst part is I was required to go over and help them anyway. (counts as alterhumasia too, as I am openly a therian.)

This is anthromisia and alterhumisia

I just don't understand why anyone would refer to someone that way, especially a stranger. Although some people are just hateful for the sake of it…
