Not sure if that's become the consensus or not but it seems quite unlikely to me. Also not entirely sure how you would test repression versus a changing sexuality. Couldn't one also say that taste in music is fixed at birth and it's just sometimes people repress which music they really like?
People weren't being prejudiced. They said you were wrong. No one said you couldn't represent the fandom, what people said was you what you were calling furry was something else.
"If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind."
