Ya gotta know what a crumpet is to understand cricket. And regional spelling.

Cricket, now that IS garbage. Raph's right.

Nope. I'm not a brony. I'm a chick and MLP isn't much of my thing.

Actually, an otaku is a hardcore fan of anything. For example, Shinichi's character of Detective Conan is considered a "Holmes Otaku" because he's an extreme fan of Sherlock Holmes.

If that's the case, then I'm an otaku of TMNT, Marvel comics, and dark elves....

Sports talk.

I was merely posturing. I dunno jack about sports games.

This poor thread deviated from topic very quickly... I blame all the sensible people being asleep.

Back on topic slightly, anyone who grew up in the 80s or 90s was exposed to a huge array of anthro characters - several of whom were very attractive females. The gateway to furrydom was planted inside our childhood entertainment.

I don't think I've ever met a straight guy who didn't find Cheetara attractive.

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 11-12-2014, 11:46 PM

Or Mona Lisa. There must be a reason there's so much fan art of her on DA.

Cause she was the 1st female mutant in TMNT, Plus Raph's 1st girlfriend.

*pennydreadful* · 11-12-2014, 11:54 PM

Yeah, I mean, there were the Thundercat ladies, there was Gadget from Talespin, Lola Bunny from Spacejam, Maid Marian from Disney's Robin Hood... lots of anthro gals in Disney actually, I seem to remember a lot of chipmunk and mice girls from Rescue Rangers and The Rescuers, and whatever species Roxanne was meant to be in the Goofy movies...

Gunpowder · 11-12-2014, 11:54 PM

I'd reference the fact that TMNT is itself a furry ("scalie") fandom...but practically everyone else has already said it, so there you go.

Gadget was from Chip & Dale's Rescue Rangers. ^^

*MsMarvelDuckie* · 11-12-2014, 11:59 PM

Yup. I think she meant Rebecca, the female bear from Talespin.

I originally thought it was because most of us like cute and sexy girls from any animated series. Apparently I was correct.

~~Leo656~~ · 11-13-2014, 12:00 AM

That's a safe bet.

*L* Yup, got mixed up between the two - my bad! I think my thought process was Gadget... mechanic... airplanes... Talespin.

Some friends and I in the late 80s enjoyed playing TMNT and other Strangeness Role Playing Game where your in-game character was a mutated animal with different abilities (didn't have to be a turtle). A lot of the fun was picking a cool animal for your character. eg: a raven with talons that did 1d6 slashing damage, a mutant racoon with a machine gun.. you get the idea. It was a fun and campy break from the more serious Dungeons and Dragons and Twilight 2000 games we were playing at the time.

Anthropomorphism - yes (you're playing an animal with human characteristics)

Furry/Scaly - hmm.. no. Didn't dress up as one or get crazy obsessive about it.

Mr. Hands- thought this might have meant being enamored with cartoon characters in a more sexual way (ie:cartoon porn) but no. I had to google it....couldn't just leave it alone. Nope, had to google it....
