How's the scientific process on real life anthropomorphic beings coming?

[Rigby]

When I was a kid I would've sworn that I could make myself into a Pokemon via surgery by now and the fact that I'm just a dude that likes raccoons instead of a dude who is a raccoon is heartbreaking.

So, any news on the subject? Any plastic surgeons testing surgery to give people animal noses or something? Anything? Could I at least give myself a raccoon tail if I was rich enough?

 

[Ricky]

Yes. Go to China and donate all your organs. They will pay you well for it.

Then take the money and go to Mexico. You need to ask for a guy named Paco.

He knows all about that stuff and will replace them with animal organs.

Aside from getting lots of surgeries and grafts I think you're out of luck.

Even if this were an option I wouldn't want it. It would look gross and unnatural.

Don't forget the body's rejection of new tissue and other implants.

Yeah. Problematic doesn't begin to describe the prospect.

You'd be better off searching for a magic wand to change yourself.

 

[Heliophobic]

There are exactly 1,012 threads asking the same thing. I suggest you read them so we don't have to rev this shit up again.

Some things were never meant to be, and should stay that way.

 

[Ricky]

Don't forget the body's rejection of new tissue and other implants.

Or the fact that they don't exist, along with the technology to implement it.

Slight technicalities Paco can certainly overcome. *nods*

A few spools of thread, a sewing needle, heavy alcohol, and some animal flesh never hurt anybody. :V

Or you could just use a bunch of that iron-on fabric material :roll:

Ouch.

 

[PastryOfApathy]

Why would you even want a tail? That shit sounds horribly unpractical, and immensely inconvenient.

Unless it's like a prehensile monkey tail, that could be useful sometimes. But other than that there's the issue of sitting on it or shutting it in car doors.

 

[Mentova]

It won't happen, ever. :V

Truly programmable biology is a long way off. Trying to see the future is (usually) futile and at best good for a laugh at some far future date (just read any of the "What the world will be like in 2000!" articles that were written in 1900) but based on past research and development trends with electricity and chemistry I'd say around 2100.

Guys, science isnt the way forward, the correct paradigm to follow is biological alchemy, turn yourself into a chimera V:

I think I'd rather die, man.

What if it's detachable, like in that King Missile song?

 

[Saga]

Tattoo your entire body with raccoon details.
Staple fake tail to that space above your poophole.
Walk around naked.
?????
Profit

 

[Schwimmwagen]

What if it's detachable, like in that King Missile song?

Maybe.

But then it means that I'd have some kind of socket for it left over in my ass area.

I've have a second asshole. A cyborg asshole.

 

[Machine]

Use it as a whip for kinky sex games.

I think that genetic modifications may be possible In the future, but we are nowhere near that point yet. Besides, medical science is focusing more on growing human organs and other body parts from stem cells in order to reduce instances of transplant rejection, or to restore spinal column function to paraplegics and the like. Cosmetic genetic modification to produce an anthro-style look is decades away at minimum. So for now you'll really have to settle for fursuiting.

 

[Ricky]

I'm in the process of doing that with tiger stripes *nods*

My murrsona isn't even a tiger. I just think they look badass B)

 

[Fallowfox]

Today you can get transplants for small pieces of tissue, such as patches of your bowels, from pigs. However I doubt that is what you wanted to hear.

Science can't turn you into a man-raccoon, so I guess costumes would have to do.

 

[Machine]

Lol, furries thinking they can get a procedure like this and come out A-OK.
