I’ve never grown out of the “furry are creepy” state.

No hate intended, it’s just … unnerving

it's the uncanny valley. I assume you're talking about fursuits, you might find some of the art to be a lot less freaky.

Exactly. Furry art is basically Disney/Pixar talking animals stuff. I don't think I'll ever meet someone who finds that creepy.

yeah, the art is way more proportionate, but you can still find some weird art pieces that give you a little bit of the valley effect, though i think that's more of an intentional thing than a secondary thing with that art specifically.
