The origin of this word is unknown.
People whose view on the 'furry fandom' drastically conflict with those in the 'furry fandom', and often results in 'trolling'; abusive, aggressive, or otherwise antagonistic behaviour, described as such due to the responses of those in the fandom - aka "Furries" - who take the actions and opinions of 'furry haters' as personal attacks. In many cases (YouTube is a good place to support this claim), 'haters' (broadly concatenated) will claim hatred for those in the 'fandom', and will proceed to virtually disapprove of everything and everyone involved or related to the 'fandom'.
Some rumours surrounding the reasons behind 'furry haters' is the belief that 'Furries' commit bestiality. While there is no solid evidence of this, it cannot be ruled out, simply due to probability and human diversity. It may be coincidental that a 'Furry' in the 'fandom' may commit beastiality, but again no proof exists.
Ethically, 'haters' may choose to 'hate on' (to commit acts of hatred against) 'Furries' due to the particular 'Fur's'/'Furry's' sexuality. This is rather a combination of perspectives, in so far as a dislike for 'Furries' as a whole, combined with a dislike for homosexuals/bisexuals.
Often, 'furry haters' will exercise defamation of character, an offence in the United Kingdom, and can be legally defended if the right advice has been sought.
