The Rules
Posts must be:

- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

Hey, is there some reason you changed the phrase that the researchers very consistently used, which was anthropomorphic animals, which they defined in the very first sentence as being like Bugs Bunny? You get how that is not the same as looking at a living rabbit and feeling sexual arousal, right?
I guess “most furries want to fuck characters like Bugs Bunny!!” was just obvious shit everyone already knew.
I did read your comment, which if you reread it yourself you might notice contains the sentence "Incorrect, most furries are attracted to animals" and no further clarification.
If you were trying to get across that you were not talking about fucking animals when you said "most furries are attracted to animals" and linked to a study about sexual attraction in furries you might want to edit that in, because it doesn't actually say anything like that right now.
