All of these bunny/animal-human hybrid profile pictures.

Preface: This isn't a negative post. Just some questions. I thought the negative tone to the title would draw the exact people I'm trying to ask.
1) Is this a sign of being a furry?
2) Where do they all come from? (They must be from the same source, eh?)
Not a furry myself, but I am gay. ;P
Just wondering, though. They are really fucking popular on here.

Immaturity is where they come from.

Why do you say that?

 

[funnystory]

Why do you say that?

I think they come from a cartoon porn website but I am not sure. It just isn't a good look.

I don't like them but eh,if someone likes that who am I to judge them?

1) Is this a sign of being a furry? Some are furries, some are doing it for fun or because reasons.
2) Where do they all come from? (They must be from the same source, eh?) They come from the internet. My current avatar came from an anime site.
Not a furry myself, but I am gay. ;P K, I am a furry myself and pansexual
Just wondering, though. They are really fucking popular on here.

I don't know if they are that popular, but that popular/regulars tend to use them more, so they are more noticeable.

Mine's an Evil Pikachu because the lesson on Pokemon Art Academy seemed a bit mundane to me, so I made a few alterations and made mine evil. I liked it so much that I did several more Evil Pikachu pics, and even chose the Twitter handle of Evil Pikachu. Nothing to do with furries or anything like that, I was just bored.

People do it because a few people started doing it and people like jumping on bandwagons.

At least it's not the Toon Link anymore.

Oh geez. I don't watch porn so yeah xD If you want to put a label on it, I'm gay/demisexual. I have to be emotionally attracted to be physically attracted.

I don't like them but eh,if someone likes that who am I to judge them?

That. Right there. As long as they are not harming/interfering with anyone else then who fucking cares? Why should them doing what they like be a bad thing? As long as they aren't waving furry genitalia in public (or any genitalia for that matter)

I don't know if they are that popular, but that popular/regulars tend to use them more, so they are more noticeable.

That would make them popular on here because that means the people who use the website moderately, the regulars, mostly have these sorts of avatars. Therefore my statement is true. xD

Man that's like this LGBT center I used to go to every fucking Wednesday. One person became Genderfluid/Gender Non-Binary and EVERY FUCKING BODY ELSE DID AFTER. Fucking awful that that's the reason they all started being the same.

Mine's just best nintendo girl.



I'm HETEROsexual btw ;-)

I think I misread what you were saying, let me clear this up. They aren't that popular as in they are used by a lot of people. They are just more noticeable because the people who do use them tend to post a lot, making it appear as if they are more popular then they really are.

Multiple members use them though.

Yeah, but not a lot of them. There's still not as many as people think. There's mostly a few regulars like you or myself that make up the majority of the furry posts on this site, thus giving the illusion that there's tons of us, when it's really only a few.

I'm sorry for this.

Really legit,it's funny how this is a microcosm of society. In real life most people just imitate what others are doing.

I'm sorry for this.

Don't be. Most of us actually contribute to the community, be it projects, humor, or just helpful advice, we are still just Tempers. It's not like you amassed your popular over night, you worked for that shit. You just happen to be a furry and people happen to like your style. You've contributed some pretty amusing trends on the Temp and that's something very few members can say they did.

Its a trend, one that i didn't follow this time

I'm not a furry-lover myself, but I only made my profile pic a furry thing, because I find it somewhat cute Also, my previous profile pic was made ~6yrs ago, and it looked like it was made by a preschooler, so I replaced it with this Also, I'm too lazy to pixelart a new profile pic (I had a pixelart WebKit figure before), so I kept this one
