I’ll be honest,

I see so many well drawn/well animated furry memes all over Reddit, but the punchlines are always „haha sex!!!“ or „haha im lonely!“ or something.

95% of furry memes I see make no sense at all or are just horny.

Am I the only one here?

There seems to be no actual thought behind most of them?

    Jimmy Carr put it best: sex is the great unifier. It’s something we all experience and have feelings about; but it’s also still somewhat taboo to talk about. Those factors make it something we all want to discuss and connect with. Horny memes are very relatable. Being lonely is also something a lot of us struggle with. It’s nice to relate to others that may also be experiencing it, to know we’re not the only ones on that road.

    Those are just relatable things to a lot of people, and hardly exclusive to the ‘furry’ demographic. Memes are generally not the place to find profound or original ideas. The very fact that the memes are even drawn at all—instead of stacking jpgs on top of one another—is already putting your hypothetical furry memes as well above average amounts of effort.

    As for you being the only one? No, I have seen lots of people be upset about memes being very sex focused in the past on Reddit. There have been meta memes about “the joke is sex,” but sex interest isn’t ever going to go away. If you want a certain meme to exist, you should be the change you want to see. I don’t make a crap ton of posts, but I do make every single one of them myself. Maybe you won’t like them if you scroll through, but ultimately I expressed myself and shared it. That’s what art is all about anyway, self expression.
