To pants or not to pants..

General
I have a problem that's been bugging me for a while. And it has to do with fashion. Or the lack of fashion. Or the partial lack of fashion on someone trying to be fashionable.
My animal-people brethren, I ask of you this question: why do some of us wear clothes but others don't? And why do still others wear half-clothes? I see animal-people jaunting around with zero clothes and then minutes later a gaggle wandering about in pants-suits. Others run through forests jumping fences and dodging trees in nothing but their shirts, apparently trying to get away from their knickers. And why? Aren't the pants the important bit? Who decided it was more appropriate to rob the rich pants-less instead of shirt-less? This all seems very backwards in comparison to normal society. We don't head to the beach in our best tank-tops, sans speedo. Does this make the tank-top the cartoon equivalent of a speedo? And what are all these animal people concerned about hiding up around their nipples? Do they even have nipples?
Maybe it all has to do with genetics? For many years I never thought animal-people even had private parts. Maybe they were all showing off their genetic superiority by doing away with trousers? "Sure I might have nipples, but check out my smooth crotchal-zone." But then along came the Furries with their anatomically-correct underpants areas and brought their shameful clothing with them.
Perhaps this all has to do with cultural differences instead? Maybe in parts of Europe anamorphs roam the streets completely nude with their smooth furry bodies, while visiting tourists from the West tout the more conservative T-shirt only. Then those weirdos from Japan show up fully clothed. Never trust a fully clothed animal person.
There may be major cultural clashes in the cartoon world between the clothed, unclothed and bi-clothing-curious. The unclothed may look upon the clothed with distrust and anger regarding their body-coverings. What are they hiding? How will seeing animals wearing clothing AFFECT THE CHILDREN? Oh God, little Tommy is wearing a HOODIE? You do know that shirt-wearing is the first step towards becoming clothing radicalized!
Why must the cartoon creators taunt us with these questions? I'm starting to think we should just leave the animal people alone to decide what amount of clothing they are most comfortable with. Unless you have a glowing rod, then put some pants on.
Plushies though. NEVER trust a plushie wearing clothes. NEVER. Barbarians!

Get it? Cause I'm a lion. Pride...
I'll show myself out.
For one of the my character costumes I've had him in no outfits and a variety of outfits. He's had a kigurumi where just the character head, hands, and feet were used because it looked cute and I was at a trampoline event and didn't want to over heat. I've had Dodge in just a bowtie and hat for one event, mainly by accident (I left his shirt home by accident). During a cooler weather event he only had a scarf on.
For some characters they may look better as just fur. After playing characters wearing clothing a lot of fursuits seem naked to me.

You just want an official excuse to go pantsless.
Unless they're tiny pants. I will accept tiny tiny pants as valid.
Yanno, if I had to choose between, like, skinny jeans and no pants, I think I'd go with no pants.
Oh dear god I'm agreeing with you? D:
See you later for movie night.
PS:you're taking me to a movie tonight.
No, not in the prevy way. to see the look on some dude face when she goes to Walmart to buy milk or some other shit.
