2005 January 26, Gray Fox [username], “Re: I like to think I'm fairly tolerant...”, in alt.fan.furry (Usenet):Nothing in the world says you have to accept babyfurs, but simple commonsense demands that, if you don't want to be singled out yourself, then you have to tolerate them, just as you want to be tolerated.
2005 January 20, Snow Leopard [username], “Re: Constaff point of view....Re: All babyfurs get out of furry!”, in alt.fan.furry (Usenet):Research shows that the fandom is often harsh toward subgroups such as babyfurs, who enjoy behaving like young or infantile characters.
