Even if this was a "furry" costume (which as others have said, it doesn't seem to be fandom-specific) the immediate assumption that furries have sex in their costumes is ridiculous. Furries are no different than any other cosplayer; in fact, that's basically what fur suiting is. The main difference being that, instead of dressing up as a character from a tv show, comic, movie, or video game, you're dressing up as a character you designed (usually).

A very, VERY tiny minority of suiters would even consider "getting busy" in their suits, which not only cost thousands of dollars to custom order (since you can't just walk into a store and buy a fur suit like you can with pre-existing pop culture costumes), but they're hot and uncomfortable and difficult to clean. And almost every single fur suit maker voids their warrantees and refuses to do repairs or touch-ups on suits that have been "modified".

I know it's funny to make "furries are perverts" jokes, but come on.... Can we just appreciate that this is a sweet costume without the need to throw 2nd grade level insults at a random geeky fandom, PLEASE?

Stuff like this is why I have lost all faith in the conceptual/preformance art movement. I had this stuff piled on me during my 4 years in art school, and I still can't for the life of me understand how we have let the meaning of the word "art" fall so far.

This isn't art. This is somebody who is using "art" as an excuse to smash a window. That's a load of garbage. And I'm sorry, but comparing this to graphiti is almost insulting to graphiti artists. Saying that a well-executed graphiti mural is in the same league as smashing an art gallery window is like saying that body painting is the same thing as punching someone in the face.

Any artist who sides with this guy is as much of a quack and bullshit "artist" as he is.
