I'm not a furry, I don't want anything to do with the subculture but I have a fetish for furries and fantasise about furry porn when I masturbate. There's nothing pleasurable about any of it, it feels involuntary and is sometimes painful, it feels unnatural because I know what I'm attracted to and what I enjoy. Normally, I'm attracted to other (human) men and I don't need to think about furries to become aroused. I don't feel like my relationship with my husband lacks anything and I'm so happy with him yet I still have this fetish looming over me and I hate it because it causes me suffering and I don't want it to put my happiness in jeopardy. I've been losing sleep because it's more of a problem at night, so it's having an effect on my health.
Keep going! Those kind of fetishes are usually the result of years of P abuse (Search for 'the Coolidge effect'). Often people see weird fetishes disappear when they reboot. Stay strong brother.
I perfectly agree. I personally have a lot of fetishes since before I became seriously addicted to pornography. Then this one nearly made me develop some strange fantasies, always related to them. Now more than a month has passed away from my very last masturbation (I masturbated 3 times with pornography that day; then I decided to play this card, and I joined this community). Now my fetishes are still there because - I say it again - come from earlier times, when I was such a little boy and I started to know sexuality just for a few; but however they're weaker than before, and many other things have become more attractive to me. So listen to me: keep on going, don't turn your eyes back. You've got such a long way to go.
Push yourself to not go back, work on rebuilding your emotional relationship. Don't expect to be perfect. I got myself into a similar situation with furry porn, except I only want women but started going after the m/m stuff, and I've never been in a relationship. Just find ways of keeping your mind occupied, while I don't know your dietary habits, it's best to rid yourself of caffeine (I've never done coffee, but I can tell you soda wrecks havoc on your sex drive). Addiction is a sickness. It messes with your perception.
Hi, thank you for taking the time to share where you are with your sexuality. You’re not alone in this confusing struggle and I speak with experience. If you haven’t already, please consider taking on the no-PMO challenge and telling your partner/loved ones about the situation. Keeping a consistent journal of your journey in private or here on NoFap can personally help you see where you’re failing and what methods are helping you break free. I’ll keep you in prayer, all the best!
Better stop it now, or it might promote to downright bestiality. And you don't want that to happen, don't ya?
I'd like to take advantage of this thread for a question: if I feel attracted by mermaids, is it a kind of furry? Just for curiosity, because I have it more or less since around 11 or 12, when I didn't absolutly use porn a all.
I also have a big problem with furry fetish, but I noticed that as my nofap progresses it is losing its power.
Sorry I shouldn't have made light of your situation. It was a joke. To be serious it probably isn't a furry fetish since they have a female top half. I'm assuming you focus much more on their top half than their bottom half. It's like a mystical fetish maybe. I would equate it to being turned on by elf women or zombie girls. Something like that. Regardless you can never truly live out this fantasy since mermaids aren't real. Since it happened before your porn addiction it may be deep rooted in your. Hopefully it isn't your primary fetish since it's difficult to act out. I remember before I started watching porn I was really turned on by the idea of eating a girl out. I haven't had the chance to do it in real life but that hasn't bothered me, as I'm sure I'll do it one day. My point is that some fetishes are porn induced and some are not. Hope this helps.
>zombie girls This is borderline necrophilia. I had many porn induced fetishes, but furry thing wasn't, it was innate. I don't think I will ever get rid of it completely, but for sure I will be able to control it.
It might be a form of necrophilia, they are dead after all. I remember seeing a gum commercial the other day that involved a zombie fetish. The guy didn't want to kiss the zombie girl but she said "I'm kinda hot" and they started kissing. I thought it was weird but yea she did look kind of hot. Anything can be sexualized which in turn could create fetishes. What if I chose to jerk off to this ad. Then it lead me to look up pictures of sexy girls in zombie cosplay online and masturbating to it. Next thing you know I'm addicted to hard core zombie porn. This didn't happen to me but you can see where I'm going. The was fetishes come is a natural progression from your environment. It's possible that furries are similar to many. Maybe they watched something that had an over sexualized anthropomorphic character. Then they started to masturbate here and there to those types of characters normalizing it. Next thing you know they have a full blown furry fetish. If this may have happened to you when you were young so it became hard wired into your brain. That's why it's innate for you. You didn't even necessarily need to masturbate to it, just have exposure. It's just a theory but I think there is some validity to what I'm saying.
I know dude. To be honest I didn't see it when I made the post. I give you full credit. Please forgive me
