I feel like I could go on a micro-rant about feral mare art and how it's the biggest tell of misogynistic culture in thia fandom.
...indulge me for a moment...
It's already established that female feral art in this fandom does not get treated the same as characters with human-like pussy.
Jan 21, 2026 16:50We already have a schism in LGBTQ+ regarding treatment of womens' sexuality in gay spaces. (gays who say "ew" at the mention of pussy; you are the problem.)
Much the same in the fandom; the misogynistic element has always been there and, to my eye, hasn't lessened at all. Just reshaped.
Right now, young and old furries alike are struggling to accept the influx of dog and horse pussy in art, because to them, it's too close to reality.
I'm old enough to remember when dog and horse cocks were seen as problematic in the fandom, so I know in time this too shall pass.
I'm glad that "fortune cookies" in art are having a hayday. To me they're the litmus test in determining chill level. You don't even have to like them, you just have to not be against them.
So that brings me to the subject of feral horse characters and misogyny. 🙃
In culture, dogs are seen as submissive. Eager to please, supportive, hierarchical by evolution.
Horses, on the otherhand, are seen as independent, strong willed and, in nature; females dominate the herds.
Try getting a horse to do something it doesn't want to do. You'll get a swift kick to head.
What I'm saying is; mares are everything a misogynistic person dislikes.
You can see this in the numbers.
Compare reposts/likes of human-like pussy to canine pussy. Then compare those numbers to art of horse pussy.
It's abyssmal. 😓
Do the fandom a favor. Go repost some mare pussy art.
