What, exactly, about this image seems "sexualized" to you?
This is a con badge from a Fairy Tales themed convention. The artist drew my fursona in the style of Little Red Riding Hood--a fairy tale deemed appropriate by most parents for young children.
There are no genitals depicted in this drawing. There's no secondary sex characteristics being emphasized.
No reasonable person would look at this cartoon image and think, "Oh, this is sexualized" UNLESS they had a pre-existing cognitive distortion to assume "furry = sexual". But that's a false equivalence.
Adding accessories doesn't make him dressed "less modestly" than depicted at base.
You're reaching and it's really unfortunate.
Please stop assuming "furry = sexual". It's a bad belief that stems from the homophobia of the early Internet (i.e. Something Awful).
