yeah, pedophilia, indoctrination, cult based on lies, and shame culture that is based on lies and falsehoods. probably more. but child care is so expensive.
Depends how good you are at playing the part, without actually doing any of the bad stuff. Churches vary, but often, it’s one of those places where the tribal symbols are more important than actual substance, so taking advantage is very possible.
See: Whatever super-rich televangelist. If you’re doing something similar, because you’re poor and can’t afford childcare, there’s an argument that’s not even bad, then.
Edit: Although, if OP means Sunday school or youth group specifically, the kids are going to be exposed to some shit, which you’ll have to manage. An adult telling you you’re going to burn alive, and that’s good, isn’t really fun for an 8-year-old.
They all indoctrinate children, and while you did comment on that shared tradition later, it’s worth highlighting as unavoidable —not to mention heinous as it attacks the unarmed and generally trusting minds of children. 😢
Yeah, I’m not actually sure what OP meant, now. If your kid’s in Sunday school, aren’t you going to be spending time in the service, anyway? I guess if you just dropped them and ran, it’d be hard for them to say no.
Maybe you could get away with that when they’re really little. Once they’re school aged, leaving them unsupervised would be better than in the hands of whatever bunch of church ladies, and the Catholic church has a whole other layer of reputation.
From their perspective, we’re the ones trying to hide our children from ideas that are correct and vital, so they can justify it to themselves. Trying to defend the standard, evangelical version of hell is harder, which is why it’s good to bring up.
I’m actually an asexual furry. So no, you don’t have to engage in any sex at all. I like the aesthetic and I’ve met a bunch of my friends through the fandom as a shared point of commonality.
Probably the biggest question you’ll get asked as a new furry is “what is your fursona?” If you say you don’t have one, everyone will make a pitch to try to sell you on theirs. (psst Maned wolves are cool.)
For a more in depth explanation, take a look at furscience. They’re an actual research institution studying the fandom.
As someone who lives where they are naturally occurring, I can confirm that they are cool. There’s also a specific tree (lobeira, Solanum lycocarpum) that’s essential to their diet and needs those wolves to reproduce.
That’s awesome! I would imagine that the roar barks at night are probably the stuff of nightmares… unless you know it’s coming from those goofy ass noodle leg guys.
I’m guessing people would be weirded out if they knew you weren’t actually furry-inclined, so it’s probably more down to being a good actor, if you’re just there to network. And then basic networking skills, after that.
Yeah it’s a big military/fbi town. The joke was the FBI removed the exemption of people who’ve had sex with animals. I never thought I would see that reading the news.
An early job of mine was in the FBI Academy cafeteria. Very familiar with the area. Forgot about the “loving animals” reference, so it took your explanation for me to catch the joke.
Gonna be trying furry convention next month
Becoming a furry just to get in a line of work is like changing religion for the community support
Child care is expensive - church offers that.
Im sure there is a hidden cost that youre not seeing.

“they might be pedophiles but at least they offer free childcare”
Hmmmm
NGL, that’s gotta confuse the hell outta the rare MAGAt “thinker”—even their coprolithic idol doesn’t offer childcare at any level.

Yep. Toxic AF, and yet they loom. 🙆🏼♂️
Let me know how that goes.
Is there an Intro to Furry Guide and a FAQ?
Are there classes I can take to get Furry Certified?
Do I need to engage in sexual activity which doesn’t align with my current non-furry orientation?
Furries are typically nonsexual. It’s more often than not just roleplay for autistics.
Source, autistic furry who doesn’t want to fuck in the extremely expensive fursuit
There’s 2 types of furries:
I paid a ton of money for this fursuit, I don’t want to ruin it by having sex in it!
I paid a ton of money for this fursuit, of course I’m going to use it for sex!
It’s a one question quiz, actually:
Do you want to be a furry? Yes or no?
If yes, congrats! You’re now a furry.

One thing that seemed to be contentious back in the day was whether us bronies were furries.
maned wolves are cool as hell!!!
As someone who lives where they are naturally occurring, I can confirm that they are cool. There’s also a specific tree (lobeira, Solanum lycocarpum) that’s essential to their diet and needs those wolves to reproduce.

Congrats on your new job in Quantico?
Whos Quantico?
Ah this place where careers go to die. But they love animals there.
Yeah, I’m sorry I don’t really know the reference. It seems to be a TV series or a town in the US

That’s pretty cool. My sister and brother in law are there now so I’ll be taking a visit there.
