What is Weird? my thoughts and personal opinion
11 years ago
Okay well this hit me like a train wreck while i was web surfing FA just after reading a comic about a young man who loves getting butt fucked. No i'm not going to rant about gay sex. Just because i'm a republican doesn't mean i'm a closed minded ass.
No this is something i found just disturbing and weird but i won't be mentioning the comics name or the artist who made it. Just know it involves the mile high club and gay sex. On one of the comics panels a character was cleaning up after doing "business" with a customer and then reached up his asshole to scoop out the seman and then eat it.... I don't care how clean your butthole is. Your butt could be the freaking popes and i would still wish i could vomit right now so the acid could burn my tongue to get the imaginative taste out of my mouth.
But this isn't a rant and i'm not here to bitch either and then get "you have a choice to not watch it" or even a "different strokes for different folk" from people. What fascinated me was that in the comments, everyone were saying things like how hot this comic page was or cute and adorable it was and that got me wondering; what goes through peoples heads to makes them think this is normal let alone call it 'cute'.
Now lets look at my gallery for a second. A collection of 2 headed girls, a girl with the power to grow extra limbs and a shape-shifting symbiote inside of her. A cougar girl with 4 arms, a snakecock, muzzles for feet and a rabbit girl with the same thing only hers are selfaware and a alien furry with a head between her legs. this is weird. Even i know this is weird but yet i find this normal to me. So why is it i find a person swallowing jizz (not just from his butt) to be weird but to everyone around me they see this as normal? This just made me realize that everyone, no matter how normal we are, are weird.
Everyone in the world is weird but we don't know it, is what i came to realize. Doesn't have to be the porn we look at. in iceland, they have a traditional dish called Hákarl. Hákarl is rotton shark meat. Right know you are thinking that is weird and gross (maybe mostly gross) and to any person from anywhere US alone find the concept to eat rotten meat weird and disgusting but yet the people of iceland find this pretty normal.
In south america they eat roasted giant ants. In Southeast Asia and other parts of Asia there is a drink called snake wine involve pouring still live snakes blood from it’s body into a shot of rice wine and quickly drinking it. Sounds like something a frat boy do just to show how macho he is, right? But there is another drink done the same way but only instead of snake blood they use the snakes contents of their gall bladder. Yea, that's all sounds gross but this is all also weird as well but yet... these people in those parts of the world find these things normal.
Doesn't have to food either. Everything from the clothes someone is wearing to the things they do. A person would think what they do is normal but everyone else around them is thinking the man in the corset and high heels is weird as he bends over every time he drops his fork in the high class restaurant on purpose and apologies to everyone outloud as he shows his ass to everyone.
That probably wouldn't happen but that would be weird. So how about a more realistic scenario then? In the same high class restaurant, people would think someone is weird if that someone had a t-shirt on, camo pants, a big hobo beard and trucker cap but has the money to afford his meal and a limo to leave in. Only people who i think this would happen in would be the Robertson family from duck dynasty, the richest red necks on this planet.
But thats not all. The fandom you are in right now, where you are reading this journal right now, the furry fandom is seen as weird by the major population of the world at large and yet.... you don't think that it is do you? You see this fandom as normal. Even i think this fandom is pretty normal too but before i joined i was with everyone else thinking furries are weird and crap.
We know some people in the furry fandom can be normal folk like anyone else you would meet but outside of our fandom 'bubble' people hark on us and view us as weirdos. So what is it that makes us think we ourselves are normal? Why do i think my 2 headed fox girl is normal but to the guy next to me thinks that's weird but his room filled with his collection of stuff squirrels he sees to be pretty normal?
Maybe someone in the future will tell me, but the next time someone says the stuff i look at is weird, I would like to point at what he looks at is pretty weird too.

Also, weird is relative. Compared to some of your other characters (and other characters you've seen, of course), your conjoined fox twins really are quite "normal", at least relatively! But, if you put the twins in a room full of boring humans doing data entry in a New Jersey office building where no one's ever seen a furry before, who would suddenly become the weird ones? Karisha and Mena! (Although, if there's not much data entry in the world they're from, they could just as easily think it's the humans that are weird!)
We have some cultural set of rules and borders that We shouldn't cross to be treated as normal. There are no exceptions, there is no culture
where You can literally do whatever You want. Some of this rules ae rational, some are less rational.
In Furry fandom people have crossed many borders estblished by our culture far beyond most people acceptance. That is why many people
won't admit They are Furry. I for instance would not run around and tell people I like furry ladies becouse They simply would not accept that.
And yes, that is true, when We are getting used to something We find it less weird.
Why We find things weird? It's a defence mechanism. We as humans naturally don't like changes and We find new ideas weird. But some
of these are treated weird for a reason, things like pedophilia, rape, etc. should never be accepted by the mainstream.
So, My theory is that weirdness is way human brain defends against something new, becouse new not necessarily means good.
