Sex & Nudity

Moderate

Sexual references
A few discussions on the sexual side of the furry fandom (or what is considered by furries to be the dark side).
In the documentary, it mentions that, "There's a big stereotype, which is the main cause of hatred for the furry fandom, that the furry fandom is sexual, and all furries enjoy yiff (anthropomorphic animal/furry porn), having sex with each other in fursuits, and having sex with animals. Yet, most furries find this disgusting. It's said that about 92% of the furry fandom are just simply furries while 8% make up the infamous dark side of the fandom."
Some discussions on yiff (anthropomorphic animal/furry porn), and Bad Dragon (a website for sex toys). These are mostly treated with negativity as the majority of the furry fandom finds this stuff disgusting.
3 couples are interviewed in the documentary. 2 of them are straight (male & female) couples, and 1 is a gay (male & male) couple. 1 of the straight couples are Christians and have 2 kids (son & daughter) while the other straight couple are atheists and don't have kids. 1 of the men in the gay couple mentions buying sex toys off of Bad Dragon before. The woman in the atheist couple makes a mild sexual joke once.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Moderate

Some of the furries' stories are very emotional, which is to be expected since a lot of furries have dealt with prejudice before.
Themes of bullying and prejudice. Most of the furries have dealt with a lot of bullying and prejudice in the past and present. One of the furries considered committing suicide over bullying and prejudice. Another furry remembers a friend of theirs who committed suicide over people bullying them for being a furry. That same furry also remembers getting rape threats by anti-furries/furry haters because they're a furry.
One furry says that the furry fandom helped them cope with their childhood of emotional, mental, physical, and sexual abuse. They also mentioned that they felt it was a great escape from the bullying and prejudice they've received throughout their life because they got to hang out with kind, caring, and lovable people, and have a fun time going to furry conventions.
Despite some discussions on the negative minority/dark side of the furry fandom, stereotypes on furries, and some of the furries' sad backgrounds, there is definitely more discussions on positive things like the majority of the furry fandom, the positive aspects of the fandom, furries having fun at furry conventions, furries making friends with other furries, and how the furry fandom has helped those that joined to become better people.
The Christian furry couple interviewed in the documentary offer some good advice and moral support for Christians, Christian furries, and Christians with kids who are furries. They definitely seem to be very family-friendly as they don't make sexual references or cuss (unlike the gay couple and, occasionally, the atheist couple).
In the documentary, it mentions that, "50% of furries identify as atheists, 39% of furries identify as Christians, 3% of furries identify as Pagans, 1% of furries identify as Wiccans, and 7% of furries identify as another religion."
Of the 4 single furries interviewed in the documentary, 1 is a Christian, 1 is Jewish, and 2 are atheists.
Can I just ask that someone moderate what people put in these damn parental warnings? Half of you are missing the point entirely. There isn't anything frightening. It's meant to be intense. It's a documentary on their struggles. Not an overexaggeration.
Mild/Moderate for neurodivergent viewers.
There are some scenes that may need consulting from a behavior technician/clinical psychologist.
