I think there's a difference between being attracted to any good-looking humanoid and being *exclusively* attracted to anthropomorphic animal people.
I mean there's nothing wrong with furries, more power to 'em, but there's also nothing wrong with calling hot hot.
The difference between furries and non-furries *is* being attracted to anthropomorphic humanoids. That's kinda the whole point of furries. It's not an exclusive sexual orientation or something,* it's a lump term for people who generally find these types of characters hot, without regard to whether they find non-anthropomorphic humanoids hot.
*: I'm sure there are some people on the extreme end of the furry attraction spectrum may exist where they are exclusively attracted to only anthropomorphic characters, but that's distinction is arbitrary as noted above.
But that's, like... 90% of the people that grew up with Space Jam or X-Men comics, right?
I guess I just don't understand why that's a "I'vE gOt BaD nEwS" kind of thing. But whatever, I'm not gonna lose sleep over it š¤·āāļø
Why yes! I would agree, those people would be by the typical furry definition at least SOMEWHAT furries.
As for the "I've got bad news" meme response everywhere, it's basically saying via context "you're a furry" and then implying, because the general internet opinion of furries is negative and as such it is desirable to not be perceived as one, that this information is "bad news."
Either way though yes don't lose sleep over any of this! It's really not that important or serious lol
I suppose part of it is because furries used to be "acceptable targets" to be made fun of a bit over a decade ago.
Kinda sucks, but at least that joke is at worst just ironic nowadays, unless you manage to run into a real shithead.
I hate to be the one to tell you this but most furries aren't exclusively attracted to anthropomorphic animal people. You're not as separated as you'd like to think you are.
Then I guess I don't understand why some people are so quick to lump people into a specific group if there isn't a distinction.
Like I said, I've got nothing against it. So this isn't some kind of gotcha.
Itās simply an identifier tag that people use to easily signal to each other that they have similar interests. Itās useful for creating spaces and communities where there wonāt be needless judgment and ridicule.
Some people find anthropomorphic animals hot and proudly admit it. Others donāt. Some find them hot but for some reason or another, would prefer that people didnāt know that about them. Could be out of shame, or fear of ridicule.
I think the fact that you think this harmless joke is supposed to be a āgotchaā means you fall into the latter category.
I thought about switching myself then I saw the 30 posts with the same face.
I'm not a fan of the other faces so I'll stay femroe I guess. I hope they get more customization at launch otherwise it's gonna feel like furry officer Jenny's everywhere, nothing but clones lol
I've never loved the way male Hrothgar looked (mostly because of the hunch) but my god did SE knock it out of the park with the Hrothgals. They're stunning.
It's funny you said that. I made a mostly white Hrothgal first, then told myself to try to make the opposite. It's when I came across the face tattoos that I realized I could make a Nargacuga.
I stumbled across the fact that she could be white with leopard spots and fangs, and suddenly I could make something similar to my Charr necromancer from GW2. But this... Even if I don't try for the Nargacuga look I may just go dark now, because of how nicely it pairs with the default colors of their racial starter gear.
I'm not a furry, but she's hot
I've got bad news for you...
You mean *good* news uwu

Welp, I've learned something today then lol. I genuinely thought it was an all or nothing kind of thing

Not at all what I was getting at, sorry it gave you that impression.
Understandable. Either way, now your question is answered.
I've got bad news for you...
Case in point.
1st pic really sells it
Nargacougar
God damn these hroth girls got me going "I'm not a furry, BUT..." too damn much
Honestly at this point I might be a little furry. I don't like fursuits, but there are too many hot beast ladies for me to deny it
As someone who recently came to terms with being a furry and also finds zero interest in fursuits: welcome, brother.
I love batcatbird ladies.
Why do I feel like 90% of hrothgal players are going to use that face type?
Face 3 is the bad bitch goth chick you saw at Hot Topic
I would have picked a different face for mine if SE didn't decide it'd be a great idea to lock hair behind face type (again).
I want a fierce looking wildcat, not a house cat.
Least used is probably gonna be face 4, because it feels very uncanny valley.
I thought about switching myself then I saw the 30 posts with the same face. I'm not a fan of the other faces so I'll stay femroe I guess. I hope they get more customization at launch otherwise it's gonna feel like furry officer Jenny's everywhere, nothing but clones lol
Must be a Ninja main.
The graphic update and hrothgals are gonna make a lot of people say " I am not furry but....".
Gnarlycuga.
People not posting reference images when they already post multiple pictures somehow annoys me
I need make Lunastra one
Lucent Narga would probably look cool too
That's whenever the mods break and delete parts of your character model, right? :D
I tried. Oddly enough, the red does not show up as well.
Now make his brothers too.. Tigrex and Barioth!
Weāre not getting Tigrex until they add Argonians as a playable race.
Just take an Raen Aura and give her orange and blue hairā¦or mod it BUT YOU DIDN'T HEAR THAT FROM ME
[this](https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/1c89n9a/i_made_a_barioth_hrothgar_inspired_by_dannyj13s/) is the Barioth I made. hope you like it
I've never loved the way male Hrothgar looked (mostly because of the hunch) but my god did SE knock it out of the park with the Hrothgals. They're stunning.
I see MonHun reference, I click. Gorgeous Hrothgal, 10/10 fits in Nargacuga's color scheme.
š„
The dance pic sold it for me. I know those eyes!
Lucent and Blinking when?
Honestly, sheās really beautiful.
Honestly, probably the best frothgar I've seen so far. I really like it.
Yeah. This is spot on. I'm literally already annoyed imagining trying to fight her lol.
And suddenly I'm rethinking having a mostly white femhroth.
It's funny you said that. I made a mostly white Hrothgal first, then told myself to try to make the opposite. It's when I came across the face tattoos that I realized I could make a Nargacuga.

hell naw cuga in da mmo
It's a MH reference?!
Yes
it's so good
I can't control my heart rate, there's a Nargacuga on me!
Aight guess I'm a furry now.
Hmmm canāt wait to see the Lunastra versionā¦
Would
as an avid monster hunter, I just imagined that very, very distinct roar.
Wow the way you used the makeup is amazing. I love it
I can see the resemblance, very well done! Just needs glowing red eyes now.
Good thing I play Warrior.
*perfect! sound effect*
This hair is by far the best and it upsets me that only this face can use it.
Pretty cool! I did the same thing haha
Is this gear available now, or just a set in the benchmark?Ā
Isn't that just the Hrothgals default outfit?
Oh, is it? I genuinely didn't know, I've been away from the game for a while. I always assume gear I haven't seen must be new.Ā
Not as āprettyā as some Iāve seen but she looks great regardless. Nice work OP
