This is exactly why I'm in it for the art--both the SFW Tyson Tan-type stuff and the porn--and not the "fandom" social stuff like cons--if /u/Sanguinelady's experience is anything like mine, they strike me as boring unless you're having crazy sex.  I strongly prefer the aesthetics to anything else.  For a long time I had a DeviantArt account solely to bookmark SFW and cheesecake shit I liked, and that was when I exclusively used Literotica and didn't even look at furry porn. It's weird, but I'm autistic and it's at least somewhat hardwired.  When I was a kid and would twiddle (manipulating objects in a repetitive, stereotyped manner) and run around, the characters I would imagine during such sessions would inevitably be anthro.  I didn't even have internet back then, so this was well before I knew about furries or even Sonic OCs.
