WTF?!: The 8 Strangest Communities on the Web
Ummm... from the Christian Furry Haven:
...used to be a furvert for a LONG TIME... but recently, I have gone to a christian councelor who helped me through it... It got to the point that I hit rock bottom and I lost all hope. Now, my life has been changed around completely. I have been free from yiff for 6 months and 1week. I have no desire to go back now, but my parents don't understand that. I am going to buy a fursuit soon, just to remind myself about why I never want to go back to the way I was... I proved the furry steriotypes right... I am ashamed, but will not let that stop me. I have God on my side. All I have to do is obey my parents (Honor thy father and mother in the Lord, for this is right) and keep the fur OUTSIDE the house. I hope to get to know EVERYONE here! LOL. I will be on alot. Have a great day!
Is the line, "I am going to buy a fursuit soon, just to remind myself about why I never want to go back to the way I was..." sorta' like ex-gays who still have sex with the same sex just to prove to themselves they don't like it?
The entry on slash was obviously weak, but the rest of those entries were pretty amusing. I've never even HEARD of boytaurs.

Someone here posted the link to boytaurs awhile ago.

Right, slash is totally weirder than Furries for Jesus.

What a shock that all of the staff on that site are men.
I guess I figured there were ICP and Furries that believe in god--I just didn't think they'd have to get together to talk about it.
That's the other FG thing the Internets provide--the ability to define yourself not just as someone who likes to wear rubber gloves on their head, but someone who will only do it Tuesdays when there's a full moon out.
Slash is strange, though. I base this on the fact that pretty much no one I've met off the internet knows what it is, and they look at me funny. I'm the resident "oh, do you want link to a a porn (possibly gay) story about that?" person at krav. I'm startled people keep being startled.

And Second Life? Really not all that fringe-y.

I had to explain that to someone this week too. Makes me wonder at the target demographic of that site. I can see it skipping slash, but 2nd Life?

I think I knew what slash was before I knew what the internet was. (I read some article a long time ago about slash, and its origin in K/S slash that was distributed by mail and sold at Trek conventions....
