No shade at furries but this would be a bit funnier if the art was more cartoonish and slightly less horny tbh

[–] sanpedropeddler@sh.itjust.works 107 points 5 months ago (5 children)

If you saw this and thought it was horny, that might just be a you thing.

[–] QuantumSparkles@sh.itjust.works 76 points 5 months ago (3 children)

You expect me to look at a shirtless deer in denim jeans with with a buff chest and choker and a cheetah in a skintight uniform with big tiddies and a fat ass and supple thighs and not become aroused? Sicko

[–] Lime66@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

You disappointed whatever the hell this thing os

[–] Bongles@lemm.ee 55 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I think they got as far as the cheetah having breasts and have been conditioned by the internet that this means furry. Which is fair.

[–] Voyajer@lemmy.world 48 points 5 months ago (2 children)

The art style screams furry artist

[–] FlowerTree@pawb.social 14 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Let's not forget this art is on the top of all time list of the furry_irl subreddit, and I even thought this was posted on a furry_irl communities before looking at this community's name.

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

...but that might just be a hilarious coincidence!

[–] FlowerTree@pawb.social 1 points 5 months ago

Right... and it's unrelated to the ungodly amount of furries on the Fediverse in general.

[–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Well yeah. Furry != horny though.

[–] BowtiesAreCool@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago (2 children)
[–] spaceguy5234@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Cool, still doesn't make you right tho

[–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 2 points 5 months ago

You clearly don't know many furries then

[–] arken@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Which is fa-ur

[–] DaGeek247@fedia.io 27 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (3 children)

Nah, it's pretty obvious the cheetah is wearing skin tight clothes for asthetic reasons. It might have been habit rather than design, but the artist definitely chose to draw titty-shaped torso rather than cop-shaped torso.

It's not even fucking close either. They drew more titty shape than literal fetish wear shows, much less an actual cop.

[–] flicker@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago (3 children)

I dunno. I'm a woman and I didn't notice the skin-tight thing until it was pointed out, but looking back at it, wouldn't any clothes do that at 90 mph?

ACAB but it doesn't look horny to me. She's just woman-shaped to me.

[–] DaGeek247@fedia.io 4 points 5 months ago

wouldn't any clothes do that at 90 mph?

Β―\_(ツ)_/Β― Maybe, but it still managed to not look right despite that. It feels more like a failure to communicate speed with the art rather than intending horny anyways. That's part of the problem though. The image looks horny first, and speedy second, or really even third.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (3 children)

I genuinely cannot believe that people still care about this in the year 2024.

Like, does anyone care if people draw animal people looking cute or sexy or just with human proportions or anything in between? Does it really bother anyone or is it just fun to try to bandwagon something that freaked some housewives out in the 90's because some inside edition episode? It's just drawings of animal characters like have been done for literal millenia. Imagine if some of the more "notorious" disney films came out today, people would lose their minds.

[–] elbarto777@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Oh yeah, because when I see Egyptian hieroglyphs, I think sexy beasts.

The point is not the anthropomorphism. The point is related tothe deliberate sexual undertone. And I'm not even a prude. I don't care much about what people prefer. It's just that the Internet broke us.

It's like the word "cuck" (ugh.) A scholar may use it in the utmost right context, and yet, all that word does is infuriate me because of the overuse the The_Donald crowd gave to it.

[–] DaGeek247@fedia.io 1 points 5 months ago

Woah, hey, easy there. You're starting to take this personally. Dial it back a little.

I genuinely cannot believe that people still care about this in the year 2024.

Nobody cares that it's a horny image. This is the internet in 2024. The artist just managed to hit that sweet spot of genuine effort + not quite skilled enough = unintentionally hilarious. It's bad movie night, but for comics.

We're all laughing at the stripper cop who the artist genuinely expected us to take seriously, not complaining that there's clutches pearls big titty cheetah cops!

Imagine if some of the more "notorious" disney films came out today, people would lose their minds.

You mean like zootopia?

[–] MrBusinessII@sh.itjust.works -1 points 5 months ago

Why you getting sand in your crack about something everyone is joking about?

[–] elbarto777@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

it doesn't look horny to me. She's just woman-shaped to me.

An animal. Shaped as a fit, sexy woman. Shared on Lemmy. Yeah, not horny. Sure.

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

To be fair, the tiny waist is pretty accurate to how to the animal looks. Giving the cop big titties and skin-tight uniform might actually be the best way to portray an anthropomorphised cheetah.

[–] sanpedropeddler@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

You can't really compare real life people's proportions to a cartoon of an anthropomorphic animal. To me its clear there was no intention for this image to be sexual at all. And believe me, if a furry wanted to draw something suggestive, there would be no discussion as to its horny status. They aren't known for subtlety.

[–] DaGeek247@fedia.io 7 points 5 months ago

To me its clear there was no intention for this image to be sexual at all.

You've missed the point; it doesn't matter if the author intended to draw a horny photo. I already agreed on that point in my above comment. The point is that the situation makes no sense for a horny image, but it still looks like one anyways.

You can't really compare real life people's proportions to a cartoon of an anthropomorphic animal.

I can when the animal has bigger tittys than most strippers do.

[–] Enkrod 8 points 5 months ago

It's definitely a me thing

[–] BakerBagel@midwest.social 6 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The deer isn't wearing a shirt

[–] problematicPanther@lemmy.world 11 points 5 months ago

He's a redneck deer, as evidenced by the truck, therefore he does not need to wear a shirt while driving,

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 7 points 5 months ago (3 children)
[–] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 15 points 5 months ago (3 children)

Yes. Replace the cop's head with a human head, and say she's wearing gloves. Now you have a sexy cop.

I have to agree with OP's assessment.

[–] absentbird@lemm.ee 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Now you have a sexy cop.

With a tail

[–] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

lol indeed! I thought of adding "remove the tail" after posting, thinking that maybe no one would notice, but I was wrong.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

What's weird is how anyone really cares?

[–] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Eh.... it's a comics community. This is all entertainment to me.

(I didn't downvote you, by the way.)

[–] magi@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

So zootopia is horny? Or is that just you

[–] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The only "sexy" character is a gazelle, in which being sexy is the point - not because it's furry, but because it's part of the story (they could have been humans, robots or books and it would have been the same - a sexy character must be conveyed as sexy somehow.)

But nope, zootopia is not horny. I guess you're referring to Judy, who is a law enforcement officer and she looks fit. She doesn't look sexy, though, or "humanly sexy." That would be... gross, considering it's a children's movie.

[–] magi@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (2 children)

So in that light, what makes this horny? All I see are anthropomorphic animals, with anthropomorphic figures. Calling this horny just seems as if you're fighting some attraction. Have you, truly, ever stepped outside and seen a womens figure? Are they just horny bait to you?

[–] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

Think whatever you want. At this point I'm just repeating what I said in other comments.

I find Futurama's Leela fuckable. She has a hot body. Jessica Rabbit too. Scarlet Johanson, Sharon Stone and Hally Berry as well. Don't get me started with the Westworld robots, or the porcelain ballerina figurines.

My point is, of course I'm attracted to sexy women's hot bodies! And the cheetah was drawn with a woman's (read: human's) sexy body, so yes, I see it is attractive. Did you want to catch me in an "aha!" moment? I would be saying the same argument about "horny stuff" if the lady of "the lady and the tramp" was sucking a banana up and down "because she likes the feeling of bananas going in and out her mouth" - I'd find that sexual (though not attractive, as I'm only attracted to women.) That doesn't mean I have a furry fetish.

Have you, truly, ever stepped outside and seen a womens figure? Are they just horny bait to you?

Straw man.

[–] magi@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

The only "aha!" moment you've drawn upon yourself is the correlation you're making between attraction and horny bait. It's not about whether you want to fuck the character or not.

Straw man but painfully relevant here.

[–] laughterlaughter@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Ok, ok. Now I'm in learning mode. And I mean it. I guess I don't know what "horny bait" means. Care to elaborate?

[–] DaGeek247@fedia.io 0 points 5 months ago

Have you, truly, ever stepped outside and seen a womens figure? Are they just horny bait to you?

That sounds about right.

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Did you not notice what's on the deer's head?

Well, those are actually antlers. Fuck.

[–] match@pawb.social 4 points 5 months ago

For balance: I think it would be funnier if it was more horny. The bulge on the deer was far too small.
