Exactly, trying to paint me as a homophobe,

Lie. I explained what I was doing.

by pretending people wearing fursuits is the same as homosexual people “kissing and holding hands”

Because it is no different. It doesn't hurt you either way.

rather than closer to wearing leather or latex.

Again, other than you personally finding it disgusting, what is wrong with it? Do you think society should cater to your whims?

Kink in public being gross isn't just a me thing lol, it's a pretty widely shared opinion, just because you want to subject others to your kinks doesn't give you an automatic "I'm not being a creepy gross asshole free" card.

Again, I'm not saying we should imprison them or something like you seem to think, I'm just saying you're gross, creepy, and an asshole for subjecting people to your sexual behavior in public.

I’m just saying you’re gross, creepy, and an asshole for subjecting people to your sexual behavior in public.

And, as I have tried to explain to you more than once, many people feel that way about gay people. In fact, if you go to pretty much any southern U.S. state, you could definitely call it a widely-shared opinion.

And most people don't care if you think they are gross, creepy and an asshole as long as you don't treat them like shit in return. Which is the issue here- people treating furries like shit. Always. For existing. Because, like you, they think they are gross and creepy.

And, on top of that, as I pointed out, some people call others furry as an insult because there's another F- word they know they can't use. But they have no problem using it when they know they're around fellows.

Kissing and holding hands are widely accepted for straight people to do in public even amongst homophobes.

Amongst non homophobes, this extends to homosexual people.

Wearing fursuits, BDSM leather, latex, etc, is a large sexual step above kissing and holding hands, and are not comparable to those regardless of the sexuality of those kissing, can we at least agree on this? If not we have nothing further to discuss.

Here again in your last bit you attempt to paint me as a homophobe. I have a feeling we're done here dude, you are just full of bad faith arguments and hot air.

Let's add that kissing and holding hands is not acceptable even for straight people in some parts of the USA, which I find very sad.

Kink shaming, unfortunately, IS a thing.
