Straight Male Furs

[AlexStone]

Please note that I am not attacking anyone's orientation. It seems that the fandom is pretty devoid of male furries who are interested in female furries exclusively. I guess I am a minority being a straight female furry but maybe I am missing the fact that gay furries tend to be more active in the fandom. I know that furries are still a fringe group so maybe that's the reason. However, I am just noting that there seem to be few straight male furries.

Well, there's me. But y'know- I have a sneaking feeling this thread is just about you trying to find some sorta partner.

 

[Astus]

I'm strait; but I'm guessing because the fandom is more accepting of it, that's why they're here

 

[Hjoldir-Hildwulf]

I, too, associate with the hetro clan. We are about the place. Here and there.

 

[AlexStone]

No, I am married. I guess it's more of a "I feel weird" being straight and a furry when it seems the majority are gay/lesbian,

 

[AlexStone]

You can't be married and have a mate...

 

[TobyDingo]

I'm a straight guy. I see what your getting at, it does seem that way at times. I think it's a bit of a misconception though. A thread discussing sexual orientation in the fandom normally pops up about once a week here. I'm pretty sure the general consensus is that there's just as many straight furries as there are gay furries although the latter seem to be more open and expressive about it.

 

[Alexxx-Returns]

They do exist. My dear ex is a straight furry (though not active in the community), and my ex before him had furry potential, judging by some discussions we had.

 

[AlexStone]

That could be a real possibility. I see different stats all the time.

 

[Pantheros]

whell im straight as diamond arrow!
straight people usualy dont talk about their sexuality all that much. gays however do nothing of the sort... 90% of the time you will know if the person is gay after a 5min talk or quick profile check. straight people just chill in the back seats, creating the illusion that there are very few of us... 55% straight people up in this fandom dude, which isint alot actualy.... i dont realy like that all that much either dude, but what ya gana do?

 

[BouncyOtter]

As others have said, some people are just more outspoken about their sexuality than others. I'm straight as well, and I wouldn't be surprised if there were more straight furries than gay.

 

[AlexStone]

Should I post this on another thread put I am curious can you be married and have a mate?

 

[Mentova]

I'm bi but leading towards women and only really want to date women, do I count? :V

 

[sniperfreak223]

This thread again? Yes, we do exist, we're just a little more subtle.

 

[AlexStone]

Sorry I'll shut it down

[Schwimmwagen]

I'm kinda surprised to see women in the fandom question the availability of straight dudes in the fandom. I was under the impression that straight women were the minority.

this thread, again?

source: http://klisoura.com/ot_furrysurvey.php (from 2012... idk if the 2013 data has been analyzed yet?)

Furry is 60% "completely male" gender identity, with only 11% identifying as "completely female" (and the rest somewhere in-between, skewing male). Furthermore, 37% of furries identify as "completely/mostly hetero," 20% as "completely/mostly homo," 8% as pan, 4% as asexual, and 31% as bisexual.

So, "straight dude" is very likely the most common identity in the furry fandom, according to this survey...

 

[Kitsune Cross]

I'm straight male, only interested in women, what did I win?

 

[Eggdodger]

If you didn't join in 2011, I would've started to think that someone made a lot of alt accounts to question why they can't find any straight males in this fandom. Variations of this thread have been appearing a bit more frequently lately. e.e

If you're looking for a mate when you already have a husband, you better have a talk with him. If you find a "mate" behind his back, that's wrong and he'll see it as betrayal. He has to be onboard with the idea. If not, tough luck.

Oh, yeah, I didn't notice the whole "I'm looking for a mate even though I'm married bit..."

That part doesn't usually happen. I'm curious now, too. I might as well mention that your husband might actually be offended that you even bring it up if you simply dump it on him, so... Tread lightly.

 

[Krysch]

If your looking for a 'mate', maybe it would be better to really think about why and discuss that with your husband first, if theres something big enough not being fulfilled that you see the need to find a 'mate' to satisfy it, then thats kinda a problem, moreso than the problem of actual fulfillment i believe. If you find that its not something the two of you can sort out, and its important enough to you for you to both agree for you to find it elsewhere, then go for it.


And OT, im not gay/bi, but im also not straight, i come from that small subset of humanity that doesnt feel sexual desire (in my case i find the whole concept kind of repulsive, and im a little phobic even).

 

[Ohyoupokedme]

I am straight (^_^)

 

[Antronach]

Does asexual count? Please tell me it counts.
