I’d probably have as hard a time getting over the dog-dick thing as they seem to lol. If animal sex (simulated or otherwise) is a core part of someone’s personality, I don’t think we’re gonna get along, and I’m far from upset about that. I also don’t think it’s doing any good for LGBTQ+ acceptance to be associated with.
LGBTQ+ acceptance isn’t about throwing specific people under the bus in order to win the favor of bigots. That’s what the right-wing gays are doing when they speak out against trans people, as if being gay is fine but being trans is a bridge too far. As for kinkshaming just read up on anything regarding keeping kink out of pride. I don’t share everyone else’s kinks either but I fully support their right to have them.
While a slight-to-decent majority of furries appear to be in the LGBTQ+ community (at least according to Wikipedia), I’d hope that no one would say “Because you’re accepting of the LGBTQ+ community, even if you’re straight and don’t identify as part of that community, you must be part of the furry community.” Just because there’s LGBTQ+ people into odd kinks like bondage, humiliation, sounding, etc., there’s no reason you would have to be interested in those things to be supportive of the LGBTQ+ community. Same thing with furries.
