Topic: Gay:Straight Ratio

Posted under General

So, I've been noticing some weird things with e621 lately... There's been a lot of straight porn! Which is actually odd to me, because I thought most furries were gay? Or.. at least in my area?

Not this is offending me or anything like that.. just.. a random observation from someone who's looking for the gay stuff :P

My brain is sort of just exploding right now all over the walls, so excuse my while I pick up the pieces...

OmFg...

I mean really, why the hell do i have to be gay if i look at damn furry porn? Wtf?

Its the opposite, there is more Straight than Gay furies. Also only 20% (or less, a lot less...) of furies are gay in real life.

I'm just making...an.. observation? Not saying you have be this to like that.

But seriously though, the rule here is assume everyone is bi unless otherwise is proven.

What kid of a rule is that, lol.

Just take a look at some ones favorites and you will get your answer.

19-25% of the fandom members report homosexuality, 37-48% bisexuality, and 3-8% other forms of alternative sexual relationships. About 2% state an interest in zoophilia, and less than 1% an interest in plushophilia.

Yeah.... Of course, this data is likely skewed due to various factors. I'm sure certain sites, or the internet in general, could have different percentages. (It also depends on the percentage of artists...)

Our straight to gay image ratio (based on tagging) has been around 50/50 for forever.

Updated by anonymous

there's a few hundred more straight images than gay images.

there are thousands of both on the site.

and really, furries tend to be more of the "jail bi" or "fake bi" persuasion than anything.

Really this.

The heavy amount of straight porn comes from the fact that most furries aren't gay; most furries are bi.

For the most part, I don't really give a damn who is fucking who with what, as long as it's sexy.

that doesn't work really well for the female furries :p

theres more straight furries than gay furries, but the gay ones usualy are more flamboyant and visible from their attention grabbing ways so they seem like more

now about your ratio, i find it sad 2. WE NEED MORE LESBIAN PORN

Updated by anonymous

I bet 90% of furries are bisexual in terms of "a girl would be nice but..."

"straight" and "gay" tags aren't so much reveliant ; generally, you can consider a porn oriented picture of a solo female attracts the straight, and a solo male attracts the gay.

Additionnally, nearly 50% of e621's pictures have been posted by the same 5 people, which probably have their own sexual preferencies.

As for the sexual orientation of furries in general, see 10th square of post #7074.

so unfortunately true. sadly, i want to say that only happens to the teen furries, but I've seen older furries that still fall under that category, then again they're slobs that wouldn't be able to attract jaba the hut if they tried.

Not all the 'gay' stuff was drawn by homosexual males. The same with 'straight' stuff, it wasn't all drawn by heterosexual males/females.

Why not?

It's still true.

oh trust me hun, most females I meet aren't into other females. Though it's easier to get them to experiment than guys :p

Just keep on thinking that women are interested in you.

I'll just keep on sitting over here laughing at you.

nothing he said made him sound like he want's them to even be remotely interested in him, i sense insecurity in that sentence.

some people just don't like fapping to homosexual material, it's all about sexual preference, and to some, solo males is just a boner kill, and I'm sure solo females as well.

Clearly, female users don't exist!

Pft, I learned a long time ago that I don't exist Sonikku.

Figments of your imagination.

These aren't the droids you are looking for.

Clearly that was sarcasm, as we do exist. :C

Updated by anonymous

If anything I've surely learned from reading this thread, it's that I'm definitely not the only female here XD

More to the point, there are a seemingly a lot more female pictures than male.. and I'm trying to put that into this.

Updated by anonymous

Huh.

Did not know Aurali was female.

Well that adds one more to the list.

FYI Aurali, I'm a lesbian, even if I am here primarily for looking at cute gays, like stuff drawn by Onta or whatever. I figure everyone needs a glaring contradiction in their life.

*laughs* Okay it's not so much a contradiction, as it is that cute femme guys don't really exist in real life.

Updated by anonymous

XD It's alright, I was hoping my "most females aren't into other females" comment would of been a tip-off to that (as well as my sexuality :p).. though on that comment, it wasn't from a lack of trying XD

Updated by anonymous

I misinterpreted that to mean you were a guy who had tried unsuccessfully to convince your girlfriends to have a threesome. Hence my sarcastic comment :P

I've noticed the prevalence of lesbians goes WAY UP online. I've met like uh... two in real life? And one of them is my lifemate. The other has an identical twin @.@

But I don't think I even know any women online who aren't lesbians... then again, I don't know any men online either who aren't gay.

I think there is a general correlation between being a geek and being homosexual.

Updated by anonymous

I'm straight, I swear! *shot*

Oddly enough, I know about 3 lesbians online, and about 500 gays. Not counting Bisexuals here.

I don't really know many people offline... <<

I like the idea of there being more female art.

But I am new here and straight and not that good at drawing but I am trying to get better.

Also I don't want to offend any one, so i guess i can only hope and make dew, and all the art is insanely well done and I really like allot of the art and have respect for every one who can draw.
