Are Furries More Trad Than Trad Wives?
We trace the history of furries and anthropomorphized animal costumes back to ancient traditions around the world. How furries connect to traditional masquerade parties, shapeshifting rituals, Egyptian & Native American animal gods. We discuss reasons why modern cultures denigrate furries despite their traditional roots and productive members. Covered topics include the psychology of hunting zoophilic furries, Trump's thing for Ivanka, Biden's hair sniffing fetish, and whether squirrel tails and fox ears make your partner more attractive.
Simone Collins: [00:00:00] But yes, I do think if you, if you, if you woke up one day. And you had cute fox or dog ears, it would probably make you, which I don't know how this is possible because you become more attractive every day, but it would make you even a little bit more attractive.
Malcolm Collins: Oh my gosh, now this is spicy, this is
Simone Collins: I don't see how this is spicy.
I feel like if, listen, if like Joe Biden. Suddenly had like white fox ears, you know, like I think that he like he would go up in the polls. I
Malcolm Collins: think that Joe Biden shows his fetish very loudly.
Simone Collins: He like sniffs people's hair,
Malcolm Collins: people's hair.
He seems really into it. if they had grown up within our generation, they'd accept it, they'd know. Don't sniff women's hair publicly. That's a bad thing to go around sniffing people's hair in public. This is something you can go to a special hair sniffing club for.
Simone Collins: A hair sniffing orgy.
We all have a desire to be known, and he's constantly [00:01:00] sniffing hair in public, it's not some big secret.
Malcolm Collins: But we were saying what's also really funny about, like, what people think is trad and what people don't think is trad.
Furries are super trad. Yeah. Like, they are far They're more trad than the nuclear family. What does trad even mean? Like if you're trying to be trad, but you say furries aren't trad or not the type of trad you wanna be.
Huh? What's causing this differentiation? Like, what is trad actually, if not furries? Because I don't think that that's what people mean. Like the way people use trad today, let's be honest,
Simone Collins: is not actually traditional. take the word trad, disassociate it from the concept of traditional or history or historical accuracy and just make it a genre, like anime or like DC comics, right?
Malcolm Collins: I actually think trying to cosplay like a 1950s wholesome family is one of the few cultural contexts we have for what it looks like to be in a happy relationship with happy kids. And so [00:02:00] if you're trying to figure out or trying to search for how do I build that for myself?
Cosplaying that and cosplaying creates the thing you're cosplaying
Would you like to know more?
Simone Collins: I'm here. You don't want to be a pilot.
Malcolm Collins: What? Oh yeah. We had US Air Force recruiting call me.
Simone Collins: You know, when I took a job test, you know, there's like job tests you fill out.
There were, there were two jobs. It was like, it's, this is very clear. You just need to take one of these or else you'll be miserable in life. Either join the military or become a librarian. That is like, you just like, you can only live with extreme structure. I'm sorry. And of course I do the complete opposite, but, but also because I think what they miss and what these, these career tests miss, especially with autists is autists don't necessarily want somebody.
Else's structure. They want their own structure. Yeah. So it's better to be an entrepreneur, even if like everything is completely like Calv
