A-Anthropomorphic Cartoons
5/9/2007 6:09 am Last Read: |
(anthro: human, morphosis: change of form) Means attributing human characteristics to other entities, particularly animals. One reason for the popularity of these cartoons in the United States and Europe is that, although it is illegal to depict humans in photographs of zoophilia,it is legal for cartoon characters to be shown engaginging these activities. Another advantage of using cartoons is that one is able to draw scenes that would be physically impossible for humans to perform. People who would find these images most appealing are often referred to as “furries”, and FurVersion was the earliest furry-specific fanzine, published by Karl Maurer from issue #1 (May 1987) to #21 (November 1990). It began as a simple list of names and addresses to enable Furry fans to contact each other. By issue #3 it began including art and fiction, and it quickly evolved into a full literary fanzine.
