Furry = fetish

Think of some fetishes you know about. Can you think of many--any--that you find appropriate to exhibit to and discuss with a 12 year old? Do you think it would be appropriate to share it with his peers, maybe do it up special for the school play so teachers and everybody know where his/her parents are coming from in that area?

Just because we so diligently accept people because we know what it's like not to be accepted for normal, appropriate behavior in public, we don't have to act like we accept everything. It's disingenuous anyway. If you must have a line drawn before you can be comfortable, then let's draw it at fetishes. fetishes are inherently and exclusively sexual. Homosexuality is not. It's a complex part of human behavior that goes beyond the sexual.

Am I getting anywhere??

You are assuming a lot in the first line of the exerpt I quoted.

I don't know who you mean by 'we', but please don't include me or tell me what I think.

Surely you can see that this is a more complex conversation than, This is a fetish; this is not.

Okay, show me. I drew a concrete line that I think is reasonable: sexuality at the level of fetishes is not appropriate for 12yo's. I welcome any cooperative attempt to present me with an alternative to consider.
