Thinkpad stock prices after plane crash
Not a subculture I have even the slightest understanding of, but hey…you do you.
My wife’s good friend came out recently as a furry, and while she’s a really cool person, I cringe over some of her social media posts involving the fur suit. I’m just astonished that she’d post that where her poor grandma is going go see it. They’re certainly a proud people.
It’s my understanding it’s not inherently sexual, is it? I mean I know that’s what we see a lot of online but I didn’t think they were all horny about it. So for some portion is just kinda like LARPing?
I know there is sexual elements to some of it, but not all of it. I have no idea how to tell the difference.
As far as I have heard, if someone is making social posts about a fursuit, it is almost certainly just a normal costume.
The body odor must be intense.
Oh, there’s a fairly established market of fursuit cleaner/fragrances that are a mixture of alcohol and scent. Some of them smell really nice (think Bath & Body Works, not high class perfume). There’s also been a lot more attention given in the past decade or so to making washable suits. You’ll definitely get people who smell like an anime convention, but at this point it’s by choice and not because suits are uncleanable. But if someone is taking normal care of their fursuit you should only be able to smell it if you’re actually wearing the head, which is a pain to clean.
Well I learn something new every day. I never considered that that fursuits had an ancillary fragrance industry. Huh.
There is also the ancillary cooling vest industry, that actually got successful enough to spin off into its own thing outside furry.
