Guys, we've generally derailed this thread.

Back on topic,

I don't think anthros should be limited to fantasy, but I know that given our limited genetic engineering technology, unfortunately anthros are limited to fantasy.

Because racism and genetic problems don't exist.

Telling the truth...

Meh, it isn't simple a 'genetics' thing. There is also a dang-o'-load of politics.

Now imma don't want'a get into details and go against da rules, but...

First, all new techs cost a dang-a'-load o' money. which means, if it were possible, say,

tomorrow, then it would cost... No kidding, at least $500.000, if not more.

Plus'a, there are those "human superiority groups", who would'a use that to spread their

freak'ng hate and attack any anthro... morphed humans (?), or at least try to limit their rights,

'cause, well, when you are anthro you are not human...

And there's also the religious groups, who will o'course be a headache.

In anthros?  No, those things wouldn't exist, not likely.    :P

Well, like you, I was being sarcastic

Thing is, genetic problems in anthros may exist, especially  in the "earlier generations", as for racism, it could be turned from skin color to species (cat vs dog, etc.) in anthros.

Yeah, he was totally being sarcastic.

I gathered. :)

Well, after thinking it over, certain animals would look great as animals, but others might not...and just 'cause they "look great" don't mean they could function in the world.  Guess having an anthro vixen girlfriend/wife is out of the question.  A man can dream though.

I'd still like to see real live anthros happen though.  :lol:

Well, a new form of racism would arise called "Specism" where species would be the determining factor.

Signs like these would pop up:

"Water fountain for Anthros only"

"No anthos allowed"

"F*** off, anthros"

Also, like I said earlier, there could be in-fighting with certain types of anthro folk against the other anthro folk, an anthro dog treeing and anthro cat.  O_o

Exactly. Just the thought of having an anthro girlfriend isn't nearly enough to make it worth creating them, as there'd be the heavy discrimination and stuff SCoat clarified about.

Thought what Milky said is true, too.

We sure as hell don't need anthro pigs.  Sadly, they already exist, hell, society has already got Rob Reiner (and his dad Carl), and of course, the [Former] Mayor of Bell, CA.  :trollface:

And don't forget Mussolinni. That's one anthro monkey we didn't need.

UNCLE HOTLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!!!

(Meh, I did it on purple-pose.)  :wink:

And, yeah actually. Mussolini SUCKED at conquering stuff, so every now and then he asked for Hitler's help.

He came first saying "we are gonna rock this place" and then "uncle hitleeeeeeeeeer, helps us! the greeks kicked our **s with a smaller army and less equipment!!!"

Back on topic, when this genetic engineering thing comes, anthros WON'T be the only things created.  Most likely we'll also see elves, dwarves, orcs, angels, demons, Klingons, Space Marines, and celebrity clones.  And clones of that kid you knew who in 3rd grade wanted to recreate Columbine.  When it gets to the last one, I'll probably go on some sort of ominicidal rampage.  And yes, I did have a classmate who, in third grade wanted to recreate Columbine.  That was some scary sh!t.

Yeah, but knowing furries they'd be the first to beg and demand to be changed into their fursonas, which would be even more impossible because their fursona's are typically far less obese.

Is it odd that I picture most furries to be scrawny little things? =V

The Columbine High School Shooting?  Ever hear of that?  Two disgruntled students shot and killed twelve students and a teacher before killing themselves.

Well, watching this video really changes your perspective.

If you don't care about your sanity, then go ahead and watch.

No, but dang, sorry if what I said felt offensive.

But meh, just because one idiot wants to revive a bad moments doesn't means da police or teachers can't stop him.

Plus, benefits from genetics, are... well, pure awesum.
