Poodling

From WikiFur, the furry encyclopedia.

Poodling, full Fursuit poodling, is a term coined by the fursuiting community[1][2] to identify the action of those fursuiters who show some or all of their human skin on purpose while wearing a fursuit or costume, normally in partial/half-suit mode.[3][4]

Some fursuiters are against this type of behavior, as they feel it "ruins the magic" for those non-suited con attendants, while those who are fine with it are against this perceived gatekeeping of the act.[5]

Exceptions[edit]

Poodling actions due to emergencies (i.e heat-related) are allowed, and because of them, most furry conventions will have a designated area, normally called the "headless lounge", to accommodate breaks for the performer.
