I found an interesting article about classism in the fandom. It sadly confirms that partial fursuiters were excluded from the HCFC photo shoot. I don't want the fandom to just be about getting the most expensive fursuit to outdo the next person. The fandom isn't just about fursuits it about the creativity of all its members. It's the writers, the artists, the musicians even the photographers who make the fandom what it is. If we take for granted the accepting nature of the fandom we may lose it. I'm not going to let such toxic attitudes prevail so that's why I'm still making noise about it. Article link:
