There's a subgenre of furries that are specifically into reptiles and they go by "scalies". At least this is what the weirdest pub trivia night I have ever been to taught me.

So I guess the opposite of furries could be "skinnies"?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

Idk, I have both skin and hair. Parts of my body are quite furry. Seems more like the opposite of fur would be scales, like reptiles and fish.

Or exoskeletons? Like insects? I'm not particularly interested in doing a web search to see if there are people into bugs in that way or what they call themselves.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

What about shaved furries? Like still the body of a dog, but shaved.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Like somebody with a fursona (maybe not the correct word) that's a sphynx or a skinnypig...🤔

That sounds like something a vtuber might call a regular creator

Nah, that's the opposite of a ghoul.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The opposite of a Furry would be an animal in a human suit.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

This is the way.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The opposite of furry is bald.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

And in ECW, they were...... DA BALDIES!!!!

Until Francine tried to join, with a full head of hair. But then she clarified that she was a baldie somewhere ELSE!!!!

(look, ECW in the 90s was written specifically for teenage boys......it's very cringe remembering it now.....)

Professional wrestling got like way wilder than I remember

Wait until you find out about Mae Young giving birth to a hand....

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Most folks who carry to term give birth to two hands.

if by furry you mean the subculture, then I think the best term for the opposite would be skinny.

I think I've already came across this in some kind of furry comic or fiction... (where skinny is a subculture for furry characters, based around humans.)

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (2 children)

if how i define furry as people liking fur, then the opposite is peta.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I thought the definition of a furry was a human fucking another human, while both are dressed like animals.

So the opposite would be two animals fucking each other dressed like humans.

So just imagine two gorillas fucking, while wearing business casual.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Far be it for me to kink shame or tell anyone they're doing it wrong, but this just sprang into my head while I was reading your comment.

Why dress up as something you find hot and then fuck someone dressed up the way they find sexy?

Just cut to the chase and dress up and masturbate as something you are turned on by. That way you're having sex with your own fantasy and not someone else's.

Not sure about furry, but I guess the opposite of smoothy would be coarsy.

The opposite of a furry is a boomer. Think how each have fun and the extent of their tech knowledge.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 3 months ago

This is ridiculous. GO someplace else and try to play nice. Thread locked.

It's only normal until you're outnumbered.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Somehow I don't see bestiality ever going mainstream, sorry.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Do you actually think furries are about bestiality?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I have been told by actual furries that it is about bestiality.

I have seen the aftermath of their conventions in person.

You cannot convince me to ignore the evidence of my senses.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Bestiality is about sex with actual animals. Your claim is bullshit and has nothing to do with these two very differently defined terms.

non-furries don't even approach normal, they've utterly rejected the concept of normalcy. especially the straight christian ones... blegh... i trust nobody on lemmy is like that, else we might have to nuke the place and start over

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Normal is just what most people decide. If they become the majority, that's what normal is.
