    I mean, I've known a lot of fur fans and seen a lot of fur art

    "Furry" is a more specific niche than just "anthropomorphic animals"

    depends on how you define furry

    either it's specifically fetish art OR just general anthro art

    i would be hesitant to file that otter comic under the fetish category, but harkovast i would

    just going "it's a furry comic" is dumb, because if you apply it to the otters it also absolutely applies to lackadaisy and poppy

    Test: is there yiffing

    If there is, definitely a furry comic

    If not, I'm not interested

    The test basically comes down to "is it made by someone who is active in the fur fandom"?

    Like, Clementine and Lackadaisy are definitely not

    Poppy, having just looked up Morbi's art tumblr (warning: very nsfw) out of curiousity, actually is a furry comic

    maybe the bigger question is, if they're not showing their cocks, why does it even matter?

    Of what use is the distinction

    Doc: That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series.

    Note that I never once said being a furry comic is a bad thing

    The signal:noise ratio is just worse than the webcomics average

    Poppy is fuckin' awesome

    I noticed that pretty much every furry comic has multiple species of animal people all peacefully cohabiting except when they're fighting each other split strictly down species lines… what's that about?

    Is that one with the 20’s prohibition cat people still the only one where there's just a single species of fur-folk and no humans?

    The reason is because Redwall

    If anything, my mistake here was not realizing that Poppy actually is written by someone active in the fur fandom

    My seperation of "furry" from "characters happen to be anthro animals" is if the fact that they're animals is something the story hinges on. With something that's just generally anthro you could replace the characters with humans and the story wouldn't really be affected. With something that's furry there's usually something that makes that not work, be it the animal people having abilities driven by the type of animal they are (flight, etc), behavior driven by the type of animal they are (dietary habits, etc), if humans exist in the story already seperately from the animal people, etc.

    I think if you were to actually skeletonize the semantics, the distinction would be "does the author get off on their own work." At which point the negative connotation is because it's technically a porn comic

    get me a jury that can agree on what a furry webcomic is, and I'll make cheese for you.

    I mean, that is what the fur fandom boils down to

    But hey, I don't think Poppy or even the one Royce just posted to start this conversation are anywhere close to porn

    Isn't that like some far-off, members-only, internet subculture? Who even knows what goes on there and how do you find out? Visiting seldom-tread dark corners of deviantart?

    I'd much rather go with @Goatmon 's rule of "shit, y/n?". I mean, anthropomorphic animals have been cool since I was like 9yo.

    They're still cool.

  • ZayZay yes i am zay Registered User regular
    actually i believe deviant art doesn't let you post pornography so that is probably not the place to look :)

    Problem with that is there are no absolute rules to this sort of thing.

    Like, you won't find any two furries who 100% agree on what it precisely is.

    Furry is the lifestyle, more than anything. Just like enjoying MLP on a superficial level doesn't make you a Brony. Unless you want it to, for whatever reason.

    It is to furry comics what LOTR is to Dungeons and Dragons. Ten bucks says there'll be a lovingly described feasting scene after the vermin genocide.
