The following is an important announcement:
YIFF
What is yiff? Last I heard, it was either the noise a fox made while it was mating, or it was the word used to define the act of mating itself when it was done by foxes.
So WHY HAS IT BECOME THE FURRY EQUIVALENT TO THE ACT OF SEX?
EVERY TIME I see this word used in place of 'fuck,' I want to bash in the head of whoever used it with their own keyboard. Hell, FireFox doesn't even recognize it as an actual word. Every time I type it out, I'm greeted by the red squiggly of incorrectness.
Look, I understand the need for furs to stand out. But you would think that (for some) wearing a fursuit would be different enough. Or writing stories that all involve anthros. Or having all of their drawings feature humanistic animals.
For Pete's sake, leave the damned vocabulary the fuck alone. If you want to fuck, then go fuck. But you're not a fucking fox. Stop saying yiff instead of fuck. You're making us ALL look bad.
