my email reply to the owner of said site:
Dear Peter
Your site is very misinformed. Its biased and slurred.
so first off lemmi give you the Actual definition of a furry:
Furries are a group of people that are fans of anthropomorphic animals (animals with human characteristics) either in physical form or in their abilities; from animals that are almost human in form with the addition of animal characteristics such as fur and tails and their faces to distinguish them, to animals that are natural in form but have the ability to think and speak as humans.
The word "furry" is used to describe an anthropomorphic animal, a fan of anthropomorphic animals, or all furries (the plural for furry) as a group. Furries often create fursonas (furry characters that they use to represent themselves). Fursonas allow furries to interact with each other as furry characters; to play the role of these characters in imaginary worlds.
What distinguishes furries from other fandoms (groups of fans) is that furries create much of the art they enjoy themselves. Furries are not limited by what someone else creates for them and encourage each other's creativity, imagination, and self-expression.
Many furries have art made of their fursonas and many will create fursuits (furry character costumes) or wear tails and ears which help identify themselves with their fursonas and enhance their ability to interact with each other as their fursonas. Fursuits are usually used to perform for and entertain others and some fursuiters (those that wear fursuits) do this as a profession as well.
The internet plays a large part in the furry community. It allows furries to find each other and share ideas, stories and artwork and it offers many different ways for furries to interact with each other as their fursonas: from text chat all the way up to creating full 3 dimensional worlds populated with furries of all shapes and sizes. It also helps them meet each other in person and organize furmeets (a meeting of furries) and conventions.
Furries hold conventions all over the world where hundreds and even thousands of furries will gather to socialize, sell each other the art and crafts they have made, fursuit (wear a fursuit), have stage performances to entertain each other, and have panel discussions and workshops to help each other with their creative pursuits.
Furries come from every nation and culture and every age group; from every race and creed; they're all united by their appreciation for anthropomorphic animals--these fantasy creatures that stir their imaginations and warm their hearts. All over the world they form strong communities that help and support each other, not only with being furry, but with things like finding jobs and places to live. Furry includes some of the most open, accepting, caring people there are.

Like many cultures in society, Furries have a darker side, As the Chatolics with the mass murder and prosecution of homosexuals, and even the united states with the mass slavery of blacks.
your site states that it isnt wrong to discriminate against furries seeing that being a furry is "...not like being a homosexual, or Jewish, or black, or blind. It is not a race, creed, or culture." Yet anyone can tell you that the fandom is more then just a Sub-Culture, Its a way of life.
and even if you still believe that its not a culture Websters Dictionary clearly defines discrimination as the "treatment or consideration of, or making a distinction in favor of or against, a person or thing based on the group, class, or category to which that person or thing belongs rather than on individual merit" if not a culture then the fandom can clearly fall under the catergory of group or class.
your site also quotes a SINGLE "middle-aged man" out of the millions part of the fandom "....stating that he was uncomfortable with the human form." and it quotes "Another furry" claiming "when privately interviewed, acknowledged that his attraction to other furries was not based on gender, but on their imaginary animal form."
haveing a statement like this is like claiming that because Hitler didnt like the jews, none of the germans must of, or because George Washington owned slaves that it must of been alright, and if you really think about it, wouldnt the world be a better place if people didnt judge by gender or color?
so as I said before, your site is slurred and lopsided, its full of holes in its theories and is basicly a hate site.
