Why do you call them in reality then?
anthropomorphic animals "furries" are fans of anthropomorphic animal characters just as "sherlockians" are fans of sherlock and "gleeks" are fans of glee. Anthropomorphic characters themselves arent furries, unless they're fans of anthro animals too... Most people on furaffinity and in the furry fandom get this but tumblr seems to morphed furry into talking about the fans and the characters because they tag the characters with "furry" because its a furry fandom post and people think they mean the character is called a furry and it just kind of spiraled from there and it's annoying
