So, remind me, internet. What was the deal with that whole debate I remember there being a while back about if "furry" was an "inherently sexual fandom"? Who was trying to make it out to be one, and how did that end up getting resolved? Because it strikes at something pretty fundamental to me, as an asexual person whose esthetics definitely lean away from human and more toward anthropomorphic other-things.

I never felt like the label fit me cleanly. I don't draw erotica (at least that is recognizable as such) because I'm just not oriented that way, and like 70% of what goes on at a furry con is people buying, selling, creating, and commissioning it. I never fit in there. But I'm not sure where I do.

So ... could I even? Is there space for G-rated Ace Furries?
