Thanks Fred - to clarify, the "pied piper" remark wasn't about ConFurence specifically. It was referring to the misinformed idea that sex content comes from some sort of outside alien influence, rather than always being native. The above comment talks about a false "fight" against something that clearly has always had popular demand. It isn't the only influence, it's just never been an outside one. The people who like it are no lesser fans than ones who don't.

Even in this thread we have the person I've seen credited with bringing the first fursuit to furry. Hilda the Bambioid was a sexy fursuit in leather lingerie.
