RE: furries
Arghhh! A Furry kill it!
Also, in regards to the furry. I kinda knew how people would react when I first created her and trust me, it's only going to get worse from here. If it's any consolation though, the two main characters will constantly be making smart ass remarks about her appearance.
what is everybody's problem? Really, people, must we be so immature? we have seen wierder/cooler/hotter aliens (not necessarily how I fell, just standing up for our fellow freaks) and nobody cares. Look at Star Wars, Avatar, Aliens, even 40K. Someone says "Damn, I'd do a na'vi," or "I bet Eldar are beslubbering Sexy," and nobody runs them out of town. Yet, when someone says "cool, a furry" they are burned at the stake for the mildest view of favor towards furries. Well so what?
I think in the comic, there should be perhaps a few characters who tease the furry, but the majority should accept her. Are prejudice and racism something you want to exemplify? Or would you rather showcase tolerance and acceptance.
To the rest of you: There is no way in hell you don't have a crazy (ok, maybe not crazy) fetish, so lay off the furries.
P.S. to answer the inevitable: No, I am not a furry (someone attracted to anthropomorphic characters), but I can empathize with those who are. Furry is no different than Gay, it's just how that person swings.
P.P.S. for the next inevitable: No, not gay either, just figured I'd use an example most of you likely accept.
