A furpile, also stylized as fur pile, is a furspeech term used to describe a group of furries who are either lying down next to each other or on top of one another, normally in fursuits.
Overview[edit]
A furpile is usually the result of a single furry taking a rest on the floor, thus attracting other furries to lay down or pile on top, while sometimes is a planned move. A fur pile of fursuiters is often compared to a plushpile, an arrangement of bundled plushies normally in someone's room, studio, or at an event.
Large individuals (size or weight) laying or piling on a furpile are typically frowned upon and advised against to prevent physical damage. Jumping on a furpile is not allowed unless agreed upon before doing so.
Art[edit]
Depiction of furry characters on furpiles is quite common in the furry fandom's art community.[1][2][3]
Sexuality[edit]
A furpile is typically not sexual, although sexual furpiles are often featured in mainstream media, such as the CSI episode, Fur and Loathing or Touchstone Pictures's movie, Crazy/Beautiful, where the heroine's best friend said "...the term 'furpile' came up a few times", about a past conversation she had while planning a party.
Such portrayals of furpiles can and do lead to the stereotype that the fandom is extremely sexual.
