Because we want to meet other like minded folks. Why do gay people wear the rainbow flag? I'm into beast and I want to meet new friends in my area.The large majority of us don’t want to be recognised so why wear something that does just that
And there's the rub. No matter what symbol we use, it's going to get leaked and then everybody will recognize it.The zeta pins have made their rounds, problem is some non-zoos recognize it as well.
I 100% agree, it puts our non-human partners and ourselves at risk for disaster. Also, you work at a wolf sanctuary?? ??Oh God, the jewelry is always a bad idea. I would feel bad for the girl who buys a "zoo specific" necklace cause she likes the pawprint design but doesn't know about "zoophilia" and gets mistaken for one anyways.
I never understood why its so important to be identified socially. I don't want anyone finding out and neither do a lot of other sane up rational people, are you kidding? Ive fostered sexually abused dogs and didn't have sex with them for obvious reasons but workers and volunteers at the rescues and shelters would assume I did if they found out. Oh and I'd probably lose my wolfdog license along with being banned from the sanctuary.
It's not worth it.
Edit:
Oh no lol I just read the fraternity and sorority symbols.
I got my gf a paw one a couple years ago. She wouldn't wear it to be recognized in public unless it was a planned meet. Her's opened and you could change the color card and scent/ perfume she wanted to wear.It’s always a risk to meet one another. But, we’ve already made that step, especially considering the latest security breach. There is a way, a subtle way, to identify one another publicly. Should it ever become a problem, we could always drop it for something else. At least,for a period of time, we could find each other in public.View attachment 6700Pendant For MenView attachment 6701Pendant For Women
Yea a shocking amount of us are zoos but it’s such a risk because other zoos will stab you in the back in a heartbeat to save themselvesToo dangerous in this day and age, you'd need to plan a meeting or something and have plenty of proof that none of you are feds. Honestly, the best bet is a furry convention, despite furries wanting to slaughter every living zoo.
First off Cub is usually synonymous with underage so if you are not aware of that you probably should be.Yea a shocking amount of us are zoos but it’s such a risk because other zoos will stab you in the back in a heartbeat to save themselves
