    I think as long as You’re ONLY Wearing The Hood And Not OTHER NSFW Associated Stuff Like, Latex, Chains, Harnesses etc with it, It’s Fine. it can be used as A Cheep Alternative to A Fursuit head. I mean, I Know It’s Associate With “Inappropriate Stuff” But Honestly, To Me It just looks like A MASK. 🤷‍♀️ A Piece of A Costume. It’s Not like It’s Exposing Inappropriate Parts Of your Body or anything. That’s Like Saying Wearing A Simple Choker Necklace Automatically Makes It A “S*x” Thing. I Think it All kinda Depends on How You “Present It” (If that makes sense)

    The problem is that anything, especially in the furry fandom, can be used as fetish wear. I don't think pup hoods were originally made for fetishes but rather a cheap alternative to a fursuit head, much like dino masks today

    Kink is initial connection literally everyone will make so imo, it’s reasonable why people are uncomfortable and it’s not really hypocritical to me. I get that you can make things into whatever you desire them to be but that doesn’t really change the reality of how it comes off. Of course it’s possible for ppl to see It in a different light if it becomes prevalent in sfw spaces but even so, would this be acceptable for kids to wear? Idk, seems kinda icky plus along with the fandom’s reputation.. it just seems really hard to bring a new/less common meaning to pup hoods

    I think you made an important point when you said most normies don't know what a pup hood is. Would a kid know what it is? I did not know what a pup hood was until my boyfriend explained. I think boundaries are important in society, but I think we need to analyze what is actually harmful. I don't think pup hoods cross the boundaries because it is not overtly sexual. A costume with enlarged sexual parts like breasts or bulges in a way that is clearly hyper, is overly sexual, a body tight latex costume fits this category too, Or someone in their underwear or worse, diapers. Things that are not safe for work to look at, are in general not safe for public spaces. But a pup hood on it's own does not cross that boundary and that is where I stand on it.

    Imo I think puphoods they say can’t count as a Fursuit cause puphoods are mainly seen as kink wear. Yet the person eating in public wearing there’s that’s a stretch. it could make the person seem as a freak to everyone and there kids seeing that near the table there eating. mainly by a Karen *cough* I mean to me you can wear whatever you want in public it’s yours!. But here’s the catch just know that certain things like melly’s Fursuit is wholesome and cute,perfectly fine. but some things could get you in trouble. Just saying.

    Having lived through those early days, yea I been in this community over 40 years. I tend to agree that it needs to be kept SFW when in public, and a con is a good place for that. As for the early fursuits.. eh hate to say it but the pics there don't tell the whole truth. The early designs that where basically NSFW in nature where not the majority, but the minority. You had or 2 at most per con that where like that back then. However with things are they are, that is what folks will remember those early days for.

    It's a complicated situation. On one hand it can make sense to ban them because of what *can* mean. BUT! On the other hand, you can make the argument that just because it can be NSFW it doesn't mean it is (like the fandom itself). So in my personal opinion i think it's fine as long as you treat it as a SFW thing in public con spaces. Fursuits are expensive, so having these as an option for others also isn't a bad idea. As long as you treat it just like any other mask and don't do anything NSFW in public spaces, it's fine imo.

    If it's an all ages con I don't think the pup hood should be out before like 9PM or if it must be out, it should only be in an adult area. I really don't think it looks good for the community to think it's fine to be wearing BDSM gear around children. Also maybe those original fursuits were suggestive but even just by the mid 90's there was a lot of wholesome ones, for example I really don't see how that Balto one you showed was suggestive though I guess people could argue lf the sled harnesses are. Also theres other adult members in the community who are asexual or just simply aren't into the sexual aspect, that paired with how most cons allow kids makes me think thst these hoods should just be saved for after dark or adult areas.

    i just think the ultimate issue is that leather pups (and therians) are not inherently furry. they are their own communities, while they do overlap with furry, not every furry is a leather pup (or therian.) some furries (myself included) do not want to be associated with pups or therians. not from any kind of malice, but because we are not part of those communities. shocker. adjacent (and overlapping) as our communities may be, we are NOT the same. i do not think anyone has a right to be rude to pups or therians in furry spaces, but they are also not a protected class of "alternative furry". at the end of the day, i dont really give a damn. (full transparency) i think puphoods are a massive uncanny eyesore, and i block pretty much every pup account i see because the masks give me the creeps, but its also not my business what people do. theres tons of fursuits i think are ugly as hell as well. i respect and protect the right to wear weird stupid dog masks, fluffy or not. people often forget that youre ALLOWED to block people. youre ALLOWED to just walk away from people you do not want to be around or see. the furry community has this propensity to blow everything way out of fucking proportion, when its literally a nothing burger. would i prefer pups and therians stick to their own designated spaces? yea. is that gonna happen? probably not. so i adjust. i get over it. amazing.

    Great video! I've been following you on Twitter for a while, and I had no idea you had a KZread channel until just now when this video popped up in my recommendations! I absolutely think puphoods should be allowed at furry conventions. They are not just kink-gear. And also, not all so-called kink is overly sexual either. I know several asexual people who are into completely non-sexual petplay, with the main goal just being to be in the headspace of the pet, that's all. There's nothing NSFW with someone non-sexually getting into the headspace of being a pet, while wearing harness and pup-hood.

It's not like furries have a big orgy in the lobby like normies think, for one thing the venue wouldn't stand for that. I do think that pup masks should be restricted to adult areas though. Also I'm asexual so I have no stake in sex at conventions anyway but I'm not a puritan.

    Okay here's the difference.. While fursuits were born in the cosplay space, pup hoods were born in the BDSM space. Specifically pet play. And wearing your pup attire in public can be part of the kink. However it's still misleading 1) it paints the furry fandom as a sexual roleplay to outsiders And 2) it can be misleading to the BDSM community looking for playmates Essentially that isn't fair to either side of the discussion. Sexual roleplay, when done between two or more consenting Adults is totally fine and healthy. It's when we bring a known BDSM symbol into spaces often occupied by children that eyebrows are going to raise. And while the fandom is founded on acceptance, we must be aware of how we present ourselves to the public if we wish to keep our conventions booked. And of we wish to keep it events all ages. There's a time and a place for some things, regardless of your intention. I could also argue that it's attire and certainly not hurting anyone. And the media is going to discriminate against anything they don't understand regardless. All I ask is that people remain informed on how they may be perceived, have fun, and STAY SAFE out there.

    Ok, real talk. No one has brought this up but....why don't people just get craft-y like with raptor masks and decorate and put fur and stuff on it? Solves the issue of people just seeing it as a sexy thing for people who have them because they can't afford a fursuit or get too hot in regular heads. I feel if you just decorated them more they feel less like fetish wear and more like regular animal masks. I personally, cannot afford a fursuit head, so I just went to the craft store and decorated and furred a cat mask. I also get hot easily so it seemed like a better option as it is less bulky.

    Just because you're a Furry doesn't mean you can't be into anything else. The first furs were also SF fans. Lots of furs were and are also into MLP:FiM and anime. There's no reason a fur can't be into pup play. There's no law that you can only like one thing. However, unless a particular convention wants to be 19+ only, you do have to require and enforce Safe For Work rules. If possible, make a time and space for NSFW activity, (such as the privacy of your hotel room), and *keep it there!* Beyond that, let Furries be Furries.

    Years back I almost bought a puphood due to fursuits being out of my price range and no interest in wearing a Raptor mask. Aslong as con attendees aren't wearing other kink gear with the puphood it shouldn't be an issue. If they are acting inappropriate then it's an issue.

    In my opinion, I don’t think people should be wearing anything that they use for nsfw purposes out around other people because there will be people who are too young and shouldn’t be seeing those things, or people who just aren’t comfortable seeing it. At an after dark conversation/ 18+ group it’s fine, bc only ppl who want to see it will see it.

    yes, they should be banned. i disagree with the idea that people who hate your puphood will also hate your fursuit as well. for most people leather gear has sexual connotations, especially connotations of being dominated, which i think sets it apart from something like a fursuit with big breasts. i think these connotations being present at a convention where the atmosphere is supposed to be light and friendly is inappropriate and kind of shatters that feeling of safety. if it's an 18+ event, then i think it's fair play, although i personally would still find it distasteful

    I think the "problem" with pup hoods is that they do show up in gay porn as well so when most people see a person wearing one they associate it with that. Now for me personally it's not my thing but you do you as long as you're not hurting anyone

    I personally would never want to see puphoods in a furry convention i’m attending to, but it’s just because i’m a minor, which equals to my overprotective mom never letting me go somewhere alone, aswell as embarassment i’d get for the fact i know she probs won’t allow me to visit one again in that case. But otherwise, i don’t really care. If you don’t do anything inappropriate, i’m fine with it.

    imo pup hoods are functionally equivalent to a mask, so I'm cool with it, and I've worn a pup hood at a convention before. I've even considered wearing it to hide my face when making videos. Just like any garment, it only crosses a line when it's being used in an NSFW manner, and if anyone has a problem with someone using a pup hood while otherwise SFW in attire and behavior, that's their own problem

    I mean, me personally, I think pup hoods do not belong in the furry fandom in general because that's what I see as a sub culture of BDSM. It's a kink gear, end of discussion. Unless the event you're going to is 18+ and rated for explicit, I think it should be common sense that wearing any gear that is associated with a kink (pup play), like pup hoods should be okay, but majority of furry conventions I've been to, are family friendly. And rightfully so, I saw a "furry" get kicked out of the convention due to the kink gear (fully shiny rubber pup hood stuff). As for that image about a fursuit and puphoods, I fully agree with that because pup play is a sub culture of BDSM, nothing to do with furries.

    the main problem is people who are against nsfw stuff are absolute zealots , i once went to camp feral , i furry convention in the middle of the woods with zero children , one cabin ad drugs and booze and another ad dildos an still event there the anti kink group would come and "let me know" that that guy wearing the latex suit creeped them out and and arttist didnt like that my fursona was and male wearing dresses it hate it , the furry was the place to go to be wierd , because kinks are a real thing and you have to hide them at all times but now a days people are more aware of kinks so its turned into a real witch hunt , even if you do nothing wrong they will go after your private life personnaly i ad to deal with some nasty sexual trauma when i was growing up completely surrounded by porn and when i showed up to my local furry group people right away wanted me to "answer for my crimes" because it became known that i did thing by myself at my place alone without bothering anyone, this one girl would say "you should know some people here were abused as children" my answer should have been , yeah i know guess what ... but instead i ad everyone watching me and some guy grabbed me by the throat to "teach me a lesson" its crazy , now a days its about outing people as perverts and assuming you must be a rapist to clarify , my fursonna is a horse who wears dresses and my art is 95% sfw its completely insane , the anti nsfw crowd is causing way more harm then the actual nsfw people itss so hyposcritical that there are pannels specifically organised for certain kinks , i went to pannels for vore , latex ,nsfw story , and babyfur meetups and more , those pannels are right there during day time in the middle of the convention , not even so far off room , and if you go into them there will be people waiting at the door to stare you down and let you know they are "on to you" so yes , pup hoods should be completely fine at conventions because you waited all damn year to be there and everyone is dressed up in fursuit and all sorts of outfits what a rant that turned out to be

    I"m not really sure why you think delivering an impassioned plea to not show people in leather dog masks on the internet, in a fursuit, is going to accomplish. Isn't that a Trans-flag colored dog suit? Are we really worried about comparatively cool looking leather masks? I think the problem here is the disconnect with normal people, at least in this instance. The dog masks are cool. You are not.
