Not Okay Humor

I have been a furry for awhile, though I don't bring this up, but if you are going to read some of the Dragon's Library material, there are some furry characters in there. There are just some things from my fandom I'm not OK with and usually when people bring it up, even when I'm working on my books, I get rather bothered by it.

I might as well say it:
No, Furries are not pedophiles, though in the past we have had a few that come into our fandom and use us as cover, which is NOT OK! I'm not okay with that because it means we're treated like the cause of a problem that has predated our entire fandom. I'm not okay with even the thought about it, it is sickening to me and most cases repels me from speaking ot people who think I'm into that, when I'm 100% not.

No Furries do not have sex with animals, that's something completely different and to me that is just not cool. I'm kind of like eeewww when I think about it, sorry, but there are just some things about it that make me want to run away from you if you even mention it. At one time, I had a person on FB do that to me and I was like okay, I don't feel comfortable at all, and I just said, "Sorry to bother you then," and this person just got mad that I ignored them for half a convention after their online vent that furries were gross and bad. He was not happy that I showed up as Romania from Hetalia and did the photoshoot, but honestly, I was not sure how to respond to this person.

So now that is out of the way, I was hoping to say that even though I hope to one day be at Anthrocon supporting my book to all people, I was surprised to hear about 2 The Ranting Griffon. I'm not a fan, though I have heard his earlier stuff and found it funny. I was just a little bit disappointed with him as a person, the decision of Anthrocon to not have is their decision and I understand their decision from their perspective, some of the material that 2 does is a little out of base and not really nice. So I do agree that even as a guest, he is not really a good person to have for a panel or even a show. That's just how I think about it. It was the decision of the convention.

I have been in agreement with a convention before in Colorado for the ban of a certain person based on their own response to things. The reason I don't say anything on the matter is that the fur fandom really doesn't have much to say on her really, it wasn't a furry convention, it was just a con. The truth was that the Anime convention made a decision based on what some friends of hers did in the hotel, at first when I realized it, yeah, I was against it, but as I got to know the individual, I was soon saying, "Yes, it was a good decision, she is not a really nice person," the truth is, it wasn't personal, but when I actually realized how she responded with deciding to sue the convention and the hotel, that was the final say in my book of, Con vs her, the convention wins because they are not at fault for her decisions. There that's my thoughts on the matter of it.

If a convention were to ask me to come to represent my book and also my publisher, yes, I would do it, and I have to make a good face for the publisher, that's why I would do it. I would not make a poor decision as 2 The Ranting Griffon or the person who was banned. I am representing only my book, but the people that are publishing.
