You realize that you're the one sexualizing them, right?
There absolutely are people who have a fursona or participate in the fandom in completely SFW ways. A fursona tells you exactly nothing about their sexual preferences. Honestly you sound exactly like homophobes insisting that two boys holding hands is obscene. Just because you equate a fursona with sex doesn't mean that every furry thinks the same way.
Your point comparing furry haters to homophobes struck true to me. I don't know much about furries, but I live in the home of anthrocon and the annual furry parade is one of the most wholesome things this city has. Families and kids love to see all the costumes, and furries are some of the nicest folks I've met. I'm always a bit taken aback when people call them perverts - it seems like a harmless hobby to me.
I mean… you’ve probably seen what art they commission lol
See that American Gothic painting? Grant Wood must have had a thing for human incest, painting a father and daughter. Why would you ever paint/draw something you don't want to have sex with?
There's a lot of folks who find SFW "furry" content "neat", like this mascot art seems pretty innocuous. Only some of them are also interested in the kink.
