This. The furry fandom had zero gatekeeping, zero pushback, zero normie filters (unless you came in with anything anthropomorphic that wasn't based on an animal, until suddenly it was trendy when an artist (who wasn't even a furry but only uploading there because it was the only NSFW art community for a while) popularized it), it was literally "here's a wide open door literally walk on in". Their only response to the crazy people in the fandom using it for sex was "we do not do this" before it became "it happens and it's a good thing" after having AIDS testing signs up at cons.
Look at pic related and ask if you want your community to turn into this too. Pushback and gatekeeping stops this.
