am i the only one who gets disappointed when...
13 years ago
...coming across someone's artwork, that you want to add to your favourites so much, but because of one detail (i.e. "hyper-sized genitalia"), you refrain, because you fear that other people will get the "wrong idea" about what you're into (or, should it be posited, what's "important" to you)?
as it so happens, i guess i'm turned off by hyper-sexuality (glorifying/fetishizing the act of Sex itself, without, at least, providing some sort of context or story for why this "hot sex" is happening); and i've never been able to get into those clown-sized, disproportionate phalluses either.
that's just Me.
all the same, i become disheartened when i see what is otherwise an รฆsthetically-pleasing character model yet there's a big inappropriate wang hitting me straight in my face, first thing i enlarge the thumbnail (usually to take a look at what could have been).
i am far from conservative (as any cursory scan through my faved items will easily reveal) but.. ..i guess i prefer investing my emotions in things that can (in theory) observe the laws of physics.
(do these hyper furries only need the head of their dicks to be in their sucklers' mouths to be satisfied?
how can you fit in the entire length of the 3 foot wang through the mouth of a 6 foot body without the wang's being burned by the acids/enzymes of his digestive tract?)
i'm sure several others have made posts about this sort of cognitive dissonance before.. ..but that's fine: i have the right to chime in my assent here.
ne?

there is one artist here in particular (whose gallery i had re-visited over the past couple of days) who comes to mind (although by no means am i inferring that he is the only one who indulges in this sort of "extremes" fetishism, or that i wish to only single him out): there is no questioning the technical quality of his product, nor the amount of time ostensibly invested thence; however, as it happens, i can't give my endorsement of a good number of his art, due to my having a difference of opinion on the relevance of these things for which he has a fetish.
oh well, i guess.
he has the right to do as he pleases, obviously.
and, in and of itself, there is nothing wrong with the clown penises, the hyper-musculature, or the unexplained sex; i only wish to lament that i don't feel like having to explain, every time, that what i liked was the design, and colouring, and all that other good stuff, Author.
the most important thing for me to do, is to not go to an artist's page and tell them they can't draw totem-pole dicks on guys that they aren't proportionate to
(there is no harm for, maybe, dropping a suggestion or two, though, for supplying an "alternate version". . . . .is there?)
Anyways, it's art, anything can happen XD
Also yes I know I'm late to the part and this is ancient. Still though I stumbled past and here I am XD. For the record I've drawn art in this fandom for 10 years. From august of 2018 to january of 2019 I worked for/completed work for 50 some odd different people. I also get to interact with them on a sort of personal level and I get to ask a lot of questions and poke thought processes.
You'll find the vast majority here don't take this shit serious, it's just a "side hobby". Like playing a favorite video game or reading your fav book. The few "ultra fantards" are just "setting the bar" because they're the most seen/active/interacted with :p.
so it seems i fell for the trap of being swayed by a vocal minority, is it?
but, those years ago, fur_affinity was my gateway into the "community" โ for which, prior, i had zero experience going in
ยดdon't even remember how i stumbled upon FA, except probably, this site was mentioned on some irregular web article i was reading; at this point, ยดs long forgotten, if this memory of my introduction hasn't fallen deep into an abyss
all that to say: at the time i'd penned this journal, i had no other frame of reference to guide me
thus, it were the ๐๐๐๐๐ถ ๐ป๐ถ๐๐๐ถ๐๐น๐ that'd influenced my view on the matter
and, in this economy, artists gotta go where the money is.
in this case: Hyper.
it was cool to see, anyway, another member proclaiming on their profile, their use of dark theming.
you're the only other person i've seen, out of hundreds, mention this, as a matter of fact.
