    But I was asking about for people who're into the sexual aspect of it. Interestingly, perhaps, I don't believe I've ever met a 'straight' Fur, whether they were into the sexualised aspect or any other part.

    One reason it's so difficult is that you want to be really, really sure that you don't cause cancer. This is still poorly understood and there's probably a reason mammals don't do this kind of stuff. So, don't hold your breath.

    It's somewhat amusing, in a cosmic sense. Many of the so-called "lower lifeforms" can do what we can only wish. There are plenty of fish and amphibians that can change their chromosomes if the situation calls for it, invertebrates and amphibians that can regenerate tissue and even parts of their brain that have been damaged, the generally awesome-but-not-at-all-relevant crocodilians...

    But I'm rambling on a somewhat off-topic tangent. As you were.

    I don't know about changing chromosomes, but they can certainly switch sex.

    That doesn't mean they change their chromosomes. Just that they can switch a specific gene on and off.

    Actually, our XX/XY sex determination system is more the exception than the rule in the animal kingdom. According to Wikipedia, it is only found in most mammals and - coincidentally - some insects. And while there's some other systems that are similar to ours (XX/X0, ZW/ZZ, the platypus' XXXXXXXXXX/XYXYXYXYXY), in many if not most animal species, sex determination isn't liked to chromosomes at all. So no need for those animals to change their genome in order to switch sex.

    If I were him, I'd be carrying cold but hey.

    I meant the recent strips where people are stabbing each other (though I think Nina's reasoning is valid - Zoe is a huge Mary Sue).

    I worded that badly. I mean that "Nina's right in saying that everything seems to kinda get handed to Zoe on a silver platter, and the fact her life before was hard doesn't make it 'okay' or 'interesting,'" not "You should stab people that you are jealous of."

    Hmm, I see where you're coming from... but the whole 'being transgender' is a very large weight on the negative side of the scales.

    My first roommate was a straight fellow who was fairly deep into that subculture. He was not into the sexualized aspect of it, but other than that, he was a big fan of the whole kit and kaboodle. Just another drop in the sample size.

    Spirituality isn't board appropriate due to what it borders and bleeds into. Or at least it seems to inevitably lead to board inappropriate topics. One of those two.

    Also, yes, it is apparently disproportionately non-hetero. I'm not sure whether my roomie was in the closet or not, to be honest. He was an admitted asexual but also had two romantical relationships with women. Not sure what his relationship with others of the subculture was... I do know that a segment of it rejected him on basis of the color of his skin somehow disqualifying him. Some sort of belief that those with skin that's not milk-white can't be furries or goths.

    Was... surreal. You're not supposed to be that baldfaced about being a racist in this day and age. You're supposed to make it look like it's good to be racist, after all, or that you're not being racist even though a cursory glance indicates that to be the case.

    No. You do realize that racism exists in forms today that are not the blatant, white-sheet-wearing racism of our forebears, yes?

    Similar to how the only way to be actively homophobic without being ostracized by the mainstream as a fossil like Mssr. Phelps is to speak to "Family Values," as opposed to promise to string up people for being queer.

    And I know what I was doing when I chose to type out "Romantical," designed to add an element of levity to what was said. Hell, I knew what I was doing too. I am not ignorant of the correct spelling.
