Honestly, because of my interest, as you can tell from my instance’s name and purpose. It’s the first furry instance I see and also the most popular one, that’s the initial reason.

And even wilder, animals that don’t conform to our idea of gender (yes, they exist too!). There are still a few things I think can be explored in this topic, sucb as:

• Animals that reproduce asexually, thus lacking in gender,
• Animals that are naturally hermaphroditic (such as worms, though these animals are rarely used for fursonas anyway),
• Animals that can change their gender naturally (such as clownfish. Unrelated, but can you imagine how interesting it would be if that fact is referenced in Finding Nemo?),
• Animals with different sex determination. For example, turtles’ gender are determined by their temperature in the egg. Imagine the gender stereotypes!
• Birds also have different chromosomal system for determining gender. It’s not XX or XY for them, but I don’t know much about avian genetics.
• Some animals have different gender roles. For example, female hyenas are higher in hierarchy than male hyenas. Also, for lions, the lioness are usually the ones hunting. Given that different animals have different gender roles, it would be interesting to see how that would play out in an anthro society where many different species would mix.

I’ve seen the art, it’s really cute :3
