I’ll try.

I’ll try, although I have no expectations.

Following that absurd logic, a dog fetching its leash or an otter using a rock to crack open a clam are “furries.” It’s ridiculous. Holding an object in their mouth is a natural physical ability of canids; they aren’t using hands, they aren’t walking on two legs, they don’t have human anatomy. It’s a wolf doing something a wolf can do.

Level 1 (Humanoid/Kemonomimi): 95% human, 5% animal. (Not furry).

Level 2 (Anthro/Furry): 50% human, 50% animal. (This is furry).

Level 3 (Feral/Creature): 5% human (mind), 95% animal (body). (Not furry).

That final phrase, “you can argue all you want, but you’re simply wrong,” is the tactic of someone who’s run out of arguments and is just too lazy to learn about something they clearly don’t know. It’s a way of ending the dialogue because you can’t refute my visual examples. If you want to keep arguing about something you haven’t researched, that’s your problem. I’m leaving it here because, honestly, it’s exhausting.

According to the direct message, it’s not secure, and I’m not going to create an account on other secure messaging apps. I already said that.

That’s still a very common fallacy. If you don’t believe me, just search or read my comments. Don’t use misused popular labels; I’m tired of explaining it. And no, the same applies in any language; the fact that you shouldn’t search for or call everything “furry” is another matter.

To dispel further confusion, here’s an example of yokai and kemono: purely human form with small animal features like horns, ears, a tail, and claws. Not furry, which is an animal in body and mind, being completely covered in fur, scales, feathers, or anything but human skin. Beasts are merely normal or mythical animals.

Hahaha, my profile picture isn’t my art. My beastly art is animalistic, not antro. And my other drawings are yokai and kemono, humans with small animalistic features, like horns, ears, and tails. Here’s an example of beastly art.

I checked the first link but it seems to be abandoned… thanks for the support anyway, not everyone appreciates art in all its forms.

In fact, the confusion is common. But furry refers to anthropomorphic animals, bestial refers to purely animalistic beings, kemonomimi refers to humans with features like ears and tails, and demons are similar; none of these fall under the furry category.

Furry: An animal with a human body and mind. Kemonomimi and demon: Humans with slight animalistic features. These include kitsune, werewolves, and even oni.

Thanks for the support! I just hope it doesn’t take months and I don’t get banned for posting my art, haha. At least, that’s what I think.

Ah, those are comics I made years ago, my current level is not professional but it’s not as bad as those old drawings.

Thanks, although I think you may have mistaken me for another artist, because I don’t do that kind of drawing of masks and robes, or maybe I misinterpreted it because of the translator haha.

No, it’s fine. I got fed up with the “furry this and this” argument, so I’ll just make it clear that just because something has animal features doesn’t make it furry, period. I won’t argue about that again. The point of this post is to figure out what kind of content I can upload, since my content is fandom/geek-related.

I just asked if I could post my kind of art and it all devolved into whether x thing is furry or not, lol. No more discussion about whether a kemonomimi is furry or not (It isn’t, no discussion). Just comment if fanart, selfships, OCs, and that geeky stuff are accepted here.

No, my avatar (the character that represents me in fiction) is not a fursona.

But what I’m into isn’t furry by any definition.

You don’t have to be part of the community to know the differences. It’s even made clear in other languages. People joke that anything with animal characteristics is furry, but they’re not.

Yes, the confusion is common. What I mean is that even if I were “furry,” there were no rules about that. I always read the rules before joining an art community. I think the moderator made it up out of dislike or they never put it in writing lol.

I won’t post links to avoid spam, but you can find me on DeviantArt as Usser-Chan.

Lol, no, Selfship is pairing yourself, your avatar, with a character from some game, anime, movie, etc.
