Holy Crap! Anybody catch CSI tonight?
They focused of a PAF (Plushie and Furry) convention. For those who are unaware, this is a convention for adults who get a sexual thrill out of dressing up in animal suits.

I don't get it.

Now, I've got a few kinky fantasies kicking around in the old cranium, most of which involve light BDSM. I suspect most of us have the occasional tie-me-up-and-spank-me fantasy.

Show of hands everybody! Who has the occasional tie-me-up-and-spank-me fantasy?

*cricket cricket*

<sheepish>OK, I guess I shared too much...</sheepish>

But how is dressing up in a fur suit, and humping somebody else in a fur suit fun?

3. Don't be sheepish
Edited on Thu Jan-29-04 11:10 PM by southerngirlwriter
Consider this my hand raised.

On edit: Most of my tie-me-up-spank-me fantasies revolve around Professor Snape of Hogwarts, Harry Potter's school. I'm always a 7th-year (that means 17 years old, legal in Britain!) who's been a bad, bad, bad little Gryffindor....

damn, is it hot in here, or is it just me??

5. as a former costume character at an amusement park-
i can assure you that there is nothing all that sexy about being in a big beaver...costume, but you sure get a lot of opportunities to cop feels from a lot of women, and mostly get it laughed off- I highly reccomend the job to horny adolescent males(is that redundant?), but if I were the park owner I wouldn't hire one for the job- ever.

7. There was a big article on this in Vanity Fair and I thought it was a hoax
It was about two years ago. Really freaky. This is for real?

10. OH YES
It's twue! Very Twue! (doing Khan from Blazing Saddles)

It's the one fetish crowd that I've never touched "bases" with yet.

I understand where they're coming from, want to know more, not into their same game...

But I have this thing...

You see, I want to understand fringe sexuality. It doesn't mean I'm into it. I'm a sympathetic scientist though. I'll NEVER put anyone down for what gets them off, as long as it harms none...or none who aren't willing to be harmed.

I get some of the people who find cat furries sexies...so I'm not totally outside of them. That's one of the clues to learning about subgroups. Find what you have in common with them and then fit in those areas.

Just because you're a Rocky Horror fan, that doesn't mean your into... (whatever is in that film).

13.  "Pardon me ma'am, but you're sucking on my elbow."
This article was about a convention of "Plushies." It just seemed too incredible to be believed. Not judging them, just astonished. I'm interested in all kinds of things, but this was so..... NOT sexual. You know?

17. Understandable
I'm not "one of them". I guess because I don't get any sex of any kind, I find it interesting to study/understand groups that get it a lot.

Furries...they're pretty safe. Some of the Star Trek S&M fans are much more scary.

21. LOL - reminds me of a scene from the movie Summer of '42
.
.

where Hermie is teased by his double-dating buddy about the "8 minute elbow" after a date to the movies (mistakenly grabbing a girl's elbow instead of her breast)

11. That's Beatiality
Furries are like Trekies who are really into anthropomorphic stories and artwork...sometimes outfits too.

Mostly harmless. If it wasn't, you would have heard of them on FAUX.

9. My ex had a pair of kitty ears
but that's as far as she went with the animal thing. Let's just say, I never complained when she wore them. :)

12. Yes, I can understand the occasional sexy halloween costume
themed as cat or bunny, but as it was depicted in the show, it left me scratching my head.

20. Furries (language warning)
Edited on Fri Jan-30-04 08:39 AM by WoodrowFan
Doesn't do much for me either. (Now a cheerleader outfit or a French maid outfit, guess I'm a traditionalist) I have heard of furries and Plushies before though. Check out Dan Savage's columns on PAFs.

Why are some people turned on by stuffed animals? While you can never know for sure why odd things turn some people on, I do have a theory about furries...

Furries emerged in the late 1990s, right when the first generation of children whose entire lives were dominated by Disney products and imagery came of age. After being exposed to images of cuddly, safe, saucer-eyed, anthropomorphized animals throughout their childhoods, during puberty these same kids had sex presented to them as something deadly and dangerous. The abstinence "educators" and AIDS "awareness" campaigns they were subjected to exaggerated the actual risks of HIV transmission, pregnancy, and death. Is it any wonder that a tiny percentage of this Disney/abstinence generation came to fetishize the safe and cuddly stuffed animals of their childhoods?

As far as we're concerned, there's nothing wrong with getting off on fursuit sex or fucking stuffed animals or anything else that doesn't involve grave bodily harm, real animals, children, or Ann Coulter.

25. I once had a mistress who'd masturbate with a stuffed dolphin...
but that was more about the dorsal fin hittin' the right spot than the furry/plushiness of it...

22. I don't get it.
Furries imagine it like this:





But you KNOW it would always be like this:




Whatever turns you on, I guess.

28. I've never seen JAG...
maybe I should have said CSI "inspired" show...and it isn't very good- I gave it two chances and then gave up on it...
BUT-
the character played by David MacCallum(Illya) is the coroner-guy- his nickname is "Duckie" (his last name on the show is "Mallard"...)
