Flipping Furries

Went out for the day with a mate to Haworth, and decided we'd do the steam train route to get there. Headed down to the platform at the local station after we'd bought our rover ticket only to be greeted by about twenty furries. The vast majority were in full fur, with a few just in tails and masks.

JFC what a load of selfish morons. They annoyed the entire train, freaked out kids and dogs, ruined other people's photos, and at Oxenhope when the train stops for about 20 mins for photos, snacks etc, they monopolised the cab, in and out, taking photos, and nobody else had a chance. Health and safety was an issue due to these idiots slowly trying to climb in and out of the engine unit in full costume (and struggling to do so). What struck me was how entitled they all acted - very flamboyant, not leaving people alone, striking poses everywhere, very much wanting to be the centre of attention. A few pride and trans flags tied round people's necks, big old blokes with tails poking out their jeans, a lot of them being very touchy-feely, trying to explain themselves and their ethos to other users who weren't really interested - made everyone else feel pretty uncomfortable. I thought they just did this stuff at conventions and comic-cons and stuff?

Let’s bring back the shaming of displaying sexual fetishes in public.

The emphasis of many fetishes around boundary transgression means that if normal public decency boundaries are relaxed (like allowing these people on the train in their fetish fear), they may have to escalate their behaviour to get their thrill.

A bit like a drug addict chasing the high and having to take more to achieve it.

This is a bad thing.

I've never dressed up in a furry costume and never had the least desire to, but I don't think I should have to rule it out simply because somebody's dog might not like it.

No. But because it is a sexual fetish, that should probably rule out wearing such things in general public.

Furries are sexual fetishists. It is not ok at all to do this in public they might as well be masturbating on the train.
