. There's something troubling about 20 year olds who get into NSFW.
Not so much about NSFW in general,
but because it seems they get into it thinking it's only about them, and not about the thousands of people that were there before them.
Like, most of these places were created as art sites to post art and share interests.
Just because others create NSFW, doesn't mean others aren't allowed to be SFW or enjoy, or even cater to a SFW following.
I've had plenty of people come after me, accusing me of grooming and pedophilia for this.
And that's nothing but utter and pure bullshit based on nothing but their own insecurities about themselves.
These are the same of people who basically cursed the fandom with "Furry is a fetish" "Furry is NSFW" years ago,
and now that they found out it's something that gets them off, they're all clattering around as if they were apart of the fandom the entire time, "it's always been like this" no it fucking hasn't.
I don't want anything to do with children, let alone anyone still in there 20s, who have to use their imaginations in order to victimize themselves and accuse others of things they've never done.
And this is includes the strange older crowd who haven't learned not to do the same, or feel the burgeoning desire to follow anyone who's got big numbers on their profile, simply because they know it'll keep them from their wrath.
It's fuckin sad as fuck to watch some of you bend at the fucking knee to people 10-15 years younger than you,
because they create something you get off to, you'll just agree to anything they say, as long as they don't come after you next.
People who are addicted to NSFW have major issues with people who enjoy SFW and want to be left alone and away from that crowd.
They don't realize how uncomfortable they make them, and how much they basically do their best to force their mindset on them.
They certainly don't fucking understand that NSFW art can be appreciated by individuals who want to mostly enjoy SFW art.
Any plain regular artist can enjoy both at the same time, especially when it comes to artists who are incredibly skilled at rendering out anatomy in the vivid ways they're able to.
But when it comes to the folks who can't. To the people who are very clearly only in this fandom to jack off,
to the people who feel the need to enforce their own imaginations and opinions onto others who've literally done nothing wrong to them,
I'm not sorry I'm not one of you.
What I am sorry is that it took me this long to admit to myself that it made me uncomfortable catering to people who find the need to basically make it a competitive sport to corrupt and sexualize the next plain mundane thing they can find.
I'm over it.
I enjoy what I've been creating since I was a child.
And I'm going to keep making what I like regardless of what these sexual harassers try to say.
It's nothing but pure bullying simply because I don't want to be perverts like them.
I had to deal with this bullshit in fucking middle school, and I guess now that this is exact same generation is all over the internet, I'm dealing with it all over again.
It's basically given me nightmares and PTSD over how these people have treated me,
I can't stop finding myself in mental loops over this. Ours on end, I know I've done nothing wrong,
I find myself trying to talk to people I've been friends with for over 10 years dropping me for popularity, because no one wants to bother defending someone against someone who has over 6k followers on twitter.
Scramble for having the loudest voice to enforce your bullshit views on people who done nothing wrong to you.
It's pure wrong what these people are doing, not just to me, but to others as well.
I'm the only one speaking, because the others have basically been forced to be speechless, and are afraid of you.
When there are clearly people who are afraid of you,
you really need to step back and ask yourself, what the fuck is wrong with you?
Of course. These people don't think they're doing anything wrong.

I bet it's the there talking shit behind your back to make you look bad because they think they can sort of thing eh?
I'm sorry if that's happening to ya, it never feels good. I've lost so many friends because of one person spewing false stories.
Granted, I don't know what's going on but I do hope it gets better for Ya.
Instead, he got to feel what I used to feel about my own art. I'm sure he knew he was a little weird for it - what grown man draws a bunch of chubby cartoon dragons? Well, he leaned into it. Made it his thing. Eventually someone with money came along and decided it was worth making a children's show with.
So maybe I understand what you're talking about. I've had some arguments, but no one's attacked me personally yet. Probably because I haven't tickled the dragon's tail by posting about it on Twitter.
Some folks seem to have the most prescriptive views on the kind of work safe to do though. While you're just sitting there doing your own thing, they decide what's kink and what isn't. They decide then that because it's kink, it's no better than any other NSFW work. They decide the logic depends on "consent" from these fictional characters. Meanwhile, in a ton of art here/everywhere they have characters that very obviously haven't consented to getting ballooned up. I mean, if the feelings and the hypothetical legal standing of a fictional character matters you gotta think about it all, not just in the one or two things you personally don't like.
I know how risky it is to talk about this. Occasionally I see comments about other people - the second they have some uncomfortable position (about politics usually, but anything really), someone inevitably pipes up to say that they're "probably a zoophile, look at this comment they made", or they're grooming kids, etc.
It's an effective way to destroy the reputation of people in this community because no one here is really that comfortable about what they do. And if they are, the community will teach them not to be.
I miss not thinking about it. The furry community is supposed to be somewhere where you don't have to worry about that kind of judgement. But I think I was better off when the average person (and myself) just didn't know what a furry was. It was much simpler when I was quirky and made random fat stuff. I did this openly and my shyness about that stuff had to do with my performance as an artist rather than shame. This is the place I learned to be ashamed and neurotic about this stuff. Now to help alleviate that, I just do "SFW" non "kink" stuff.
So do I understand where you're coming from or did I miss the mark?
I don’t know what the remedy is... perhaps make art less of a social experience. Maybe find real friends in (and outside) the community rather than fellow travelers of the fandom looking for their next wanking material.
I don’t know.
People need to choose their friends carefully. Like very carefully. I’ve learned to not trust much people and keep a very small circle of friends. It’s easier that way. I hope you can get through this.
I've not been able to trust this new generation being bought up.
They're awful.
