It's because the furry fandom, when it was founded back in the late 70's by a gay polycule of sci-fi fans, was one of the only communities in existence that accepted openly gay and trans people. (And the only non-fetish community.) For many queer people, the furry fandom is the first place they ever feel welcome.

Basically the two weird kids in school decided to hangout together? I don't mean that in a bad way, I mean in a cute way.
