🔰 Disclaimer – About My Commissions (SFW & NSFW)

This statement applies to all artwork I commission, including both safe-for-work (SFW) and not-safe-for-work (NSFW) content. It reflects my personal values, boundaries, and creative intent across every piece of art I support or share.
All characters depicted in my commissions are fictional, sentient beings from constructed fantasy worlds. I do not support, condone, or engage in any real-life attraction to or behavior involving animals.

🎨 About My Characters and Commissions

The characters in my art—whether romantic, casual, suggestive, or explicit—are:
• Fictional, anthropomorphic, or fantasy creatures
• Designed with traits like thought, autonomy, identity, and consent
• Not based on or meant to simulate real animals or real-life behaviors

What does this mean?
These characters are conceptualized as sentient individuals—not instinctual animals. They possess personalities, thoughts, and the capacity for relationships and decision-making.

For example: A quadrupedal lion-like character I commission might have a name, backstory, and personal motivations—like being a tribal leader or an explorer. They can speak, reason, and form emotional and romantic connections. If involved in NSFW content, their actions are portrayed as mutually consensual and emotionally aware, like any fictional adult character from sci-fi, fantasy, or mythology.

This is comparable to creating talking dragons, intelligent werewolves, or alien species in other fiction. These characters may look non-human, but they are not animals—they are fictional people with non-human traits.

I commission artwork for:
• Worldbuilding
• Fursona/character identity
• Adult storytelling in fictional contexts
• Creative self-expression

🔄 On Mixed Character Types (Bipedal & Quadrupedal)

Many characters I commission are:
• Quadrupedal
• Bipedal
• Or hybrids of both

Regardless of body form, they are narratively equal and fully sapient. These fantasy relationships are based on fictional, consent-driven worldbuilding, not real-life animal dynamics.

🧬 On Anatomy and Design

Fantasy characters may feature:
• Animal-inspired traits (tails, paws, snouts, etc.)
• Stylized or fantasy biology
• Semi-realistic anatomy suited to fictional species

This does not imply attraction to real animals.

These are fictional character designs with imaginative intent. Nothing I commission reflects real animal biology or attraction to it.

📖 What is Zoophilia?

Zoophilia is defined as sexual attraction to real, non-human animals. It is a paraphilia, and when acted upon, is illegal, abusive, and unethical.

I have no interest in or tolerance for zoophilia in any form, including but not limited to:

• ❌ Real-life acts, intentions, or ideologies
• ❌ Photos, videos, or audio depicting animal abuse
• ❌ Stories or roleplays that sexualize real animals
• ❌ Products that simulate sexual activity with real animals
• ❌ Groups or forums that normalize zoophilic beliefs
• ❌ Beliefs that attempt to rationalize attraction to real animals
• ❌ Any attempt to equate or associate furry fantasy art—including stylized, anthropomorphic, or non-human characters—with real-world abuse involving animals

This includes:
• Claims that adult furry art is inherently zoophilic
• Accusations based on character body shape (e.g., quadrupeds)
• Misreading of fantasy scenarios as real-life endorsements
• Weaponizing discomfort into moral accusations

Intent, context, and consent matter. Fictional characters are not real animals.

🧩 Additional False Claims – Explained

❌ “Zoo = Pedo” – False and Dangerous
This is one of the most toxic, intellectually dishonest claims made online. Zoophilia and pedophilia are completely separate paraphilias with distinct psychological patterns, motivations, and behaviors. Equating them is not only factually wrong—it also trivializes real harm.

There is no legitimate evidence that someone who enjoys fictional animal-like characters (especially sapient ones) will “turn into” someone who engages in criminal, real-life abuse. This claim is rooted in fearmongering and used to falsely conflate imagination with predation. It’s baseless.

❌ “You must want the real thing” – False
No, engaging with fantasy art or character design does not equate to real-world desires. This is a harmful leap in logic. You don’t assume someone who draws vampires wants to drink blood, or someone who writes horror wants to commit murder.

The same logic applies here: fantasy ≠ real-life intent.

❌ “If the anatomy is realistic, it must be about real animals” – False
Artistic inspiration and fantasy anatomy are not indicators of illegal intent. The body may resemble a real-world creature in part, but the context, behavior, and character are entirely fictional and sapient. Artists stylize and blend elements from many sources—this does not define the viewer’s ethics.

❌ “Anyone who engages with fantasy animal art will eventually harm animals” – False
This slippery slope fallacy has no data to back it. People are capable of separating fiction from reality. Billions of people engage with fantasy genres—this does not mean they condone real-world equivalents.

To say otherwise is projection, not protection.

🔎 Debunking Common Misconceptions

Myth: “Quadrupeds = Real Animals”
Fact: Not true. Quadrupedal body structure does not make a character a real animal. In fantasy, many sentient beings (e.g., dragons, gryphons, alien creatures) walk on all fours yet possess identity, language, and decision-making. These are fictional people—not beasts.

Myth: “Fictional interest = real-world attraction”
Fact: Fictional, artistic interest in character types—no matter the body structure—does not imply desire for real-world analogues. Just as enjoying fantasy crime stories doesn’t make someone a criminal, enjoying fantasy creature art doesn’t indicate abuse.

Myth: “Costumes and tails mean you’re acting like an animal”
Fact: Fursuits, tails, ears, and collars are symbolic, expressive gear. They are no different from cosplay or theatrical props. They represent fictional characters—not real animal mimicry. Wearing these does not equate to animal identification or behavior.

Myth: “Anyone who defends furry fantasy must be hiding something”
Fact: Defending fiction, art, or identity is not an admission of guilt. It’s a stand for creative freedom, personal autonomy, and truth. Silence in the face of misinformation only empowers those who twist reality.

Fiction is not proof of crime. Thought is not action. Fantasy is not abuse.

🛠 Clarifying "In Any Form"

“In any form” also includes:
• ❌ Toys or items designed to replicate real animal genitals or simulate bestiality
• ✅ Excludes fantasy toys, fursuits, or gear inspired by fictional species

The line is drawn at intent: if it's meant to simulate sex with real animals, I reject it. If it's fictional fantasy, it's creative expression.

🐾 On Fursuits, Tails, Collars, and Personal Expression

I may wear or use:
• Fursuits
• Tails, ears, or cosplay gear
• Collars or harnesses

These are used for:
• Character identity
• Performance or roleplay
• Consensual human-to-human dynamics

These do NOT represent animals and are not used to simulate animal behavior.

They are symbolic of my fictional character and self-expression, just like cosplay or fantasy costuming.

🚫 What I Do NOT Support

• I do not support art that sexualizes real animals
• I do not support or join zoophilic communities
• I do not confuse fantasy with real-world behavior
• I do not use gear or costumes to mimic real animals sexually

Everything I engage with is fully fictional, sapient, and consent-focused in nature.

💬 Final Note

The furry fandom is about creativity, expression, and imagination. Not all content is for everyone—and that’s okay. But:

• Discomfort is not abuse
• Fiction is not endorsement
• Fantasy characters are not real animals

Thank you to those who understand and support ethical boundaries in fiction. I stand by mine.

🚨 To Those Spreading False Accusations About Me

Let this be absolutely clear:

I am not a zoophile. I have never supported, desired, or engaged in sexual activity with animals. I do not romanticize, sexualize, or support any real-life acts involving animals—ever.

If you are calling me a “zoo” or “zoophile” because I commission fantasy art—featuring fictional, anthropomorphic characters who may be quadrupedal or possess species-inspired traits—you are not calling out abuse. You are actively creating it.

🚫 You are spreading misinformation
You deliberately confuse fantasy with reality. You treat fictional, consent-based characters like they are real animals, which shows a complete failure to understand fiction, metaphor, worldbuilding, and the concept of sapience in art.

You ignore the fact that:
• Furry art exists within fantasy, not real life
• These characters are personified, thinking, feeling beings—not animals
• Consent and sentience are built into these fictional universes by design

You collapse all nuance to make yourself feel powerful.

⚠️ You are trivializing real abuse
By falsely labeling someone a “zoo” for engaging with fictional, stylized characters, you dilute the seriousness of actual zoophilia and bestiality.

You:
• Misdirect outrage from where it belongs—on actual abusers
• Make it harder for survivors and advocates to speak out
• Turn “zoo” into a performative insult, instead of a word with weight

Your actions do not help animals. They harm people.

🔍 You are engaging in character assassination
What you’re doing is not activism. It’s targeted harassment. You are:
• Weaponizing moral panic to punish people you don’t understand
• Encouraging mob behavior based on false narratives
• Trying to silence me by shame, fear, and intimidation

This is manipulation. It is abusive. And it will not work.

🛑 You are not my judge, and you never were

You do not get to redefine my identity, my intentions, or my morality based on your feelings.

You are not the guardian of truth.
You are not a hero.
You are not protecting anyone.

You are using social stigma to control and silence others, and that ends here.

If you’re uncomfortable with my content—block me.
If you’re confused—ask respectfully.
If you’re deliberately lying about me—know this: I will not tolerate it, forgive it, or excuse it.

You do not get to use serious terms like “zoophile” as a social weapon to punish people for creating art you personally don’t like. You do not get to rewrite fantasy into reality to suit your narrative. And you will never have the power to make me ashamed of something that hurts no one.

I am not the one in the wrong here. You are.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
