That's a good point. Yes, ponies are furry work by definition. And yes. Ponies originate from 4chan, not furaffinity.
But where do fandoms originate from exactly? Which factors are playing the essential part in fandom's creation? Is it a place? Is it common interests? Or is it both? I am sure you've noticed there is a great divide in our community between derpibooru bronies and other bronies. In that sense, there should be two fandoms since our world views and personality traits differ so much that it often leads to violent and hostile experiences. And yet we don't sgo as far as labeling each of truewo groups any different than a brony.

You see, the real problem lies in a bias targeted at the core demographic of the furry community, not the fandom itself. Let's be real here. We don't hate the furry fandom. We hate people in this fandom, their language, their culture. Those are different things. I don't consider myself being a furry but I can't deny that obsessing over a furry animal sexually is something a furry would do. I don't engage in sexual relationships with animals in real life like Kiro the wolf and I don't wear animal fursuits since I find it degrading and less of a human, but I do find appeal and comfort in fantasizing about busty animal thighs in tight sweaty panties. That still raises the question of my integrity as an individual. Is it true that furries and ponies differ mainly because of their representative archetypes? Is furry considered a brony if he/she draws mlp oriented fan art? If not, what is considered an explicit furry interfierence and how it can be stopped?

Let's asume the unthinkable happends. Furries begin raiding our fandom in large amounts. How would you then distinguish who is who?


Also...

The word yiff makes me want to shoot myself but the word clop for some reason does not.
The "uwu" phenomenon gives me an urge to vomit but "/)" however does not.

Why?
No reason given
