I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as furry, is in fact, furry lifestyle/fetish, or as I've recently taken to calling it, furry lifestyle plus fetish. Furry lifestyle is not a fetish unto itself, but rather another option of a fully functional human being aroused by the furry lifestyle & art, fursuits and other paraphernalia comprising a full fetish as defined by ICD10.
Many users who follow the furry lifestyle relieve their sexual tension with a modified version of the furry lifestyle every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of furry lifestyle which is widely followed today is often called furry fetish, and many of its followers are not aware that it is basically the furry lifestyle.
There really is a furry fetish, and these people are aroused by it, but it is just a part of the lifestyle they follow. The fetish is the basis: the masturbation material in the galleries that allocates the users resources to the arousal. The material is an essential part of a fetish, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete lifestyle. Furry fetish is normally used in combination with the furry lifestyle: the whole system is basically lifestyle with fetish added, or lifestyle/fetish. All the so-called furry fetishes are really distributions of lifestyle/fetish.
