Roffo: my last post was meant to be speaking generally, not about this topic in particular :)

(retracted, ember is still a jerk)

Seriously though, by being open minded i mean that you don't need to like what everyone else does, just dont be a dick and rain on their parade.

We can all be friends... well maybe not ember... gingers have no souls!

Mediar I know you want greatly to play this game but you need to pay your dues and learn the rules first.

Please take a seat at the kids table for a while before trying to hang with the adults. Given your views on the subject, I would wager that the kids table is where you would rather be anyways :)

You misunderstand me Ori... Ember. You see I am not trying to pick a fight, I am just stating facts. As much i am sure having a padded seat is nice, I like being able to feel what i am sitting on. I know you foxes are similar with like feeling what going on/up your bum.

[admin]If you guys want to disagree with each other, that's fine, but stop with the personal attacks or we'll have to give out official warnings.[/admin]

I feel that cub furs havent necessarily 'moved on' or accepted growing out of being a kid/baby. Perhaps they hold so tightly to the good times and nice memories of being a child that they want to immortalize those feelings through reenactment?

I'm okay with pup-play though, I knew someone who was into it. Just people who want to temporarily become something other than human for a change in my opinion.

Well, in terms of pup-play, would calling a close friend a "pup" as a form of endearing "belittlement" be considered a bit of a pup-play in itself?

:O T_T

Another unexplored avenue of pup-play and baby-play (in general, not just in the furry fandom) is the humiliation aspect of it. Some people are just into being forced to act like an animal, or a baby. It's humiliating. And they get off on the humiliation of it more than the perceived pedophilia or zoophilia. People are WEIRD.

If anyone is curious about what I enjoy about pup play...

the fact that it is possible for me to take everything I have that is human, and become/feel like a canine. Whether it be the use of wearing pup gear or having an 'Owner'. Its all fun, of course. Reason why I enjoy it? I don't know particularly. Maybe its because I don't enjoy being human all the time; or sometimes I wish I can take away all of my human traits and just pretend to be an animal for once.

There is probably a dependence factor involved. Those who enjoy age regression are most likely appealed by the fact of having a nurturing experience because, well, maybe those babyfurs never were able to experience a positive infant-hood like that, but are now able to so it is appealing. (theory and all). A Freud perspective.
Pup play...I've always enjoyed dogs, always disliked being a human.

Btw, for those who don't know what puppy play is. Its basically when an individual pretends to be a canine.

Oh...right....

How come everyone wants to do pup-play and not something cool like otter-play?

Who wants to eat fish and fight crocodiles with me?

Vanilla Skunk · October 01, 2011, 04:34:56 PM

I could really go for some cat or skunk play myself... oh wait, that could be interpreted wrong.

'Otter Play' often turns into "who can beat who up first". I rather have a diaper!

I guess in a sense otter-play goes like this.

The first rule about otter-play is you don't talk about otter-play.
The second rule about otter-play is YOU DON'T talk about otter-play.
The third rule about otter-play is if someone says "stop" or goes limp, taps out the play is over.
The fourth rule about otter-play is two otters per play.
The fifth rule of otter-play is one play at a time.
The sixth rule of otter-play is no shoes, no shirts in the play.
The seventh rule of otter-play is the plays go on as long as they have to.
The eighth rule of otter-play is if this is your first night at otter-play, you have to play.

*scampers off to avoid angry mobs*

I digress. Would it be okay if I harvest some posts from reddit regarding this topic in a sense?
