To be clear: I harbor no resentment against furries. They have a right to do their thing, I just don't want to be involved.

If furry porn didn't exist, then I might have less of a prejudice against furries and furry content. But as it stands, I will actively avoid anything with the furry aesthetic, because the porn is too weird for me to stomach. You will never be able to remove that association; the damage is done. When I see video games that I might otherwise like, but the art is furry art, I think, "ah, that's a shame. Won't be playing that."

Idk, I can enjoy a good set of bunny ears or tail

I still have an old comment on my computer from Kongregate where I disliked a game just for having a wolf character.

I now hang out with furries more than other types of people.

Imagine refusing to play Tunic because of this.

Tunic has a very different art style from furry art IMO.
