For clarification I am adding a link here— I have made two posts about this! You can RT either/or /gen

And whether you agree with my opinions or not doesn’t matter, there are 14 animal victims by this company. Two horses and mostly dogs (and one cat I believe)

LET IT BE KNOWN: I am not a fence sitter! This is not a post for shitting on people who use FANTASY toys, toys that have no actual involvement with animals and are for PEOPLE USE ONLY
because ANIMALS CANNOT CONSENT and they especially cannot consent to live casting! THE CON IS NEXT WEEK;BLOW THIS UP

It's so sad too, because I know they have the capacity to make positive change for the con. I've seen it done in the past. I really want to hope this changes, but things aren't looking good right now.

Keep in mind people have TRIED email. They get closed instantly, MFF doesn't even respond or note it. MFF doesn't care. Their staff are likely non-furries or zoophiles themselves.

the possibility of "change for the next year" is nowhere close to enough for something as grievous as this. this is something that has to be dealt with as soon as the board and staff possibly can. exotic erotics' presence facilitates an actively unsafe environment for everyone there.

They've been allowed to vend at this con for YEARS, & I think that speaks volumes about the people running the con board and vendor selection. There's a reason I haven't attended in at least 4 years. I want to enjoy this con, but I can't in good conscience while this shit keeps sliding.

For those unaware, Exotic Erotics is an adult "toy" manufacturer that proudly uses life-casts of REAL animals. I don't need to tell you how sexually abusing an animal in order to profit off of them as a sex toy is a problem.

It's all good, I've been starting to pick up more business slowly but surely, but it was certainly a setback.

He had also commissioned a Bluey suit from a close friend for himself, and after learning all this it REALLY rubbed me the wrong way that he was commissioning fursuits of character minors for him and his wife - given the overall nature of his fandom involvement and what goes on at the parties.

I know I'm joining this conversation late, but right before the beware broke here in Ohio, he had commissioned me to make a Bingo (from bluey) suit for his wife. I refunded that shit ASAP because I wasn't about to knowingly continue, but as a new maker I've been struggling to keep up since.
