April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberI just don't get the slutty fox stereotype, foxes are one of the few naturally monogamous species.

MemberI guess it all just kinda stemmed from historically foxes are portrayed as sneaky sly and mischievous creatures which translated into promiscuity and combined with their lithe frame compared to other animals which gives the impression of the stereotypical twink body frame, the "bottom" of the gay food chain, and voila you have slutty foxes as the analog to the slutty twink stereotype

MemberI think it stems more from early furry RP and MUCKs. Foxes have distinct markings and big tails - they're fun to draw and look at which is more important in visualization than animal social features. Players gave them sexually attractive features because people want to feel attractive and it usually helps get a partner if you want to get off. Hell, the connection of furries, foxes, and fucking lead to dubbing it "yiff".
