I think it’s about lines of social taboo. Coming out as gay means you’ve already done something socially difficult, and it means you’re closer to social fringes. It’s what I’ve always suspected for why queer people, polyamorous people, and people into bdsm wind up overlapping more than expected.
There seems to be a link between neurodivergence and LGBTQ+ tendencies, from purely anecdotal evidence. Perhaps it’s because neurodivergent people seem to be more willing to question the status quo and self-examine without the assumption that they must be however society deems “normal?”
Do you think there’s a real link between furries being gay, like the type of person who is a furry just tends to be disproportionately gay and online?
Or a sociological link like people who are open enough about sexual preferences will tend to be open about all of them?
Or a news bias link like plenty of hackers are gay but you don’t hear about it, but if they are
Or is this always just the one gay furry hacker group?

I think all those are a little true. But I’m mostly guessing. I’m happy to change my mind if anyone knows better.
Either way, these folks are my hero.
