I think the reason they get insulted is because they think that just because they like something with anthropomorphics animals people will see them as furries.
Tell them that just because they like one anthroporphic work does not make them a furry in the same way someone like a particular film doesn't make them a fan of the entire genre. Hell they could hate the genre BESIDES that one flick.
This is normal... I'm surprised intelligent people who read need to be explained that kind of thing. Hell I hate country music and techno music but I can name a list of songs that happen to be those genres that I enjoy.
