This was the “link of the day” on Something Awfull today. [http://us.vclart.net/vcl/Artists/Mark-Parsons/index.html](http://us.vclart.net/vcl/Artists/Mark-Parsons/index.html) Okay now, not only is it furry “art”… But it is “erotic” furry “art”… Mostly with various penis-horse-girls… **BUT!!!** and this is the part that they did not mention… They are often Nazi, erotic, furry, penis-hose-girls, with breasts larger then their bodies. Nazi’s Sometimes with human Nazi’s “snuggling up” with the other creatures, or the creatures themselves are wearing nazi uniforms. WTF did this guys parents do to him? ---

Oh my gosh… this guy needs some serious therapy, about ten years ago… It’s people like this that make me realize being a psychology major could be a highly lucrative career, should I go into full time counseling. I wonder what Freud would have to say about this guy? At least he’s in touch with his subconscious? ---

Some people do it just for kicks. There’s a word in the furry fandom-- “Winger”. It refers to an artist who draws stuff similarly, with oversized and overdone -everything- and is thought of both as famous and infamous for it. Just please fer goddsake don’t immediately apply your impressions there to ‘Furry’ as a whole. As if we don’t got enough bad impressions from E.R., Vanity Faire, Something Awful, and more recently, Penny Arcade. There–I’ve said my piece…dignity as a fur demands that I do, even if personally I really don’t care what kinda perverts are housed within our little subsected culture. 😜 ---

I am at the office without so much as a cubicle to shelter my surfing. It is killing me to be unable to find out what all the fuss is about here. (Frankly, the amount of time I spend on the SDMB should have gotten me shot into space ages ago, but somehow I have been spared.) ---

I, like **GrandfatherTrout** , am at work and unable to satisfy my burning curiosity. WTF is a “penis-horse-girl”? ---

What’s really sad is that this guy is clearly a talented artist, and obviously a lot of time has gone into the work. But the subject matter is something else entirely. And, I know I’ll regret asking this, but what is a ‘furry’? ---

Art, stories, etc. involving anthromorphic animals. It doesn’t have to be sexual.
