>>43036761I have to wonder if it is an extreme expression of misanthropy where you hate humans, human-shaped things, things with human skin, things with human hair. (and the common human pets: cats and dogs) Combine that with a desire for powerful beings, a desire for wondrous beings. In testudines we have defense/protection, in serpents we have stealth, sleekness, in lizards we have diversity of form, crocodilians uniquely adapted for water. The furry is the cosmopolitan, seeking to prostitute himself with every race, but the scaly is the nationalist.
