    > Tatarstan's Commissioner for Children's Rights has submitted a report to Russia's State Duma recommending that various anthropomorphic subcultures be recognised as "LGBT propaganda", journalist Ksenia Sobchak reported on Wednesday.

    > Irina Volynets, who authored the report, accused three subcultures: quadrobers, furries and therianthropes, of attempting to attract children and adolescents to the LGBT community, stressing that all three subcultures were Western imports and were part of a single movement rather than disparate phenomena.

    > According to Volynets, the "International furry community" supports Ukraine and sponsors its armed forces, and has itself received support from Russian human rights group OVD-Info, which she said had in the past provided detained members of Russia's furry community with legal aid.

  2. Studies have found that something like 2/3rds of the fandom is LGBT. Probably the only community where straight, gay, and bi people are basically equal shares in the population.
