furries get a lot of psychological safety out of embracing animalistic traits in all contexts. Speech is extremely difficult for me and being able to "awooo arf x3 wuf bark!" my way through normal day to day conversations with partners is such an inexplicable relief that I hope people with a passing understanding of neurodivergence can empathize.

For as beneficial as these things are in normal day to day life, it would in fact be far weirder if it didn't extend to the bedroom too. Like play-gnawing a partner to say "I love you" and then getting to the bed with them and just saying "ok for this one thing in particular I am a normal human who doesn't howl!!!"

That would be fucking weird right?
