Fascinating! The tape of early Anthrocon attendees and Burned Furs in the early 2000s discussing the origin of their interests (sometimes fetish) and debating how “promiscuous” they should be in public was mind bending to see. People from all over the world somehow acquiring the same very niche interest and debating the communities internal politics and ideals. Humans are so amazing.
