Geez, I never knew there was such vitriol towards babyfurs in the furry fandom and I've been casually involved in the fandom for around 20 years. I mean, I knew most furries think we're kinda weird but I've never seen anyone get super bent out of shape about it. I guess I've just been lucky avoiding drama lol
Reading through this thread did make me slightly concerned about a fur con I'll be going to next week though. I've never really gone to a fur con before in all the years I've been a furry (I did briefly stop in at one last year for a couple hours before getting sick and having to go home, but that probably doesn't count as "going to a fur con" since I didn't even attend any panels or events) so this year I decided to make a proper trip of it and commission a conbadge of my fursona to wear to the event. And of course my fursona is a young fur wearing a diaper, so now I'm a wee bit concerned that people might try to mess with me and give me a hard time over it.
Is that something I should be worried about or am I just being paranoid?
I have seen the same thing.
But have heard of some being abused but not the norm.
There are rules for baby furs at a conference.
Rule number 1 no messing of diapers unless you're truly incontinent.
because there was a complaint years ago that somebody was pooping there diapers in the elevator with everybody in it.
Rule number two take your diapers double bag out to the trash can outside.
In the beginning we were very much accepted but the first complaint on rule number one and then there was another complaint that people found use diapers in the hall.
Rule number three no exposed diapers.
So usually fursuiters or anybody wearing diapers out showing are told not to and that's common sense really we have children at these cons.
Leave your rooms clean and tip the wait staff generously for having to put up with you know you products.
Basically it was just common sense.
Now now there have been cases where people that aren't babyfurs have planted stuff.
Being diapers in the parking lot and stuff like that to give the baby furs a bad name.
But seriously the diapers that were planted with something a babyfur wouldn't wear depends like Pampers.
If you use common sense you're fine.
