The Dutchie Problem

[@lachelnderhund]

I got policed by someones fanbase for having a dutchy thats a stitch designed character and they told me I wasn't aloud to have it because someone had a dutchy thats based already off of stitch and another one based off of angel Of course I kept it, I'm not gonna let 10 year olds tell me I can't have a sona based on a Disney character :p

[@madisonnichols7685]

I never knew that they were supposed to have a toddler mentality,...but doesn't that contradict their "abyssal Dutch Angel Dragon" variants? I don't think they thought that one through, lol

[@curiouscreationcostumes]

I've been wanting to revisit an original species I made when I was 15, but since it's a fluffy dragon inspired thing, I'm kind of nervous about it. The tails are different and face is different, but I feel like I need to get more original than that, which is fine. I have the same problem with robotic/cyborg OCs, where people are like, "that's just a protogen," when really they're not the only cyborgs.

[@xiruvian2553]

[@criesincowboy9629]

My fursona is vaguely Dragon-like and fluffy dragon/Goat features,definitely not a dutchie though.

[@ultraviolet1420]

Your first a wouldn’t happen to be a Synx, would it?

[@blueberrypitbull87]

The admin's are toxic and they police everyone they even almost bullied someone to suicide. they are out of control. I don't like children and I'm not going to make my Dragon with the mentality of a three-year-old. My Dutch angel dragon has the mentality of a 31-year-old because that's how old I am. She has a mate, my fiance's fursona.

[@BronnyWest]

I agree completely. The admins love to chew you out for everything... especially if your Dutchie has a (illegal in ino's world, because heaven forbid someone has a character as special as hers) muzzle band. That rule is the most annoying one, in my opinion. I also don't quite get the "your Dutchie must have the mentality of a toddler" and the "your Dutchie can't be in a romantic relationship" rules either. I mean, these things can have God-like abilities, so how would they be able to use them properly if they had the mentality of a small child? And has Ino ever explained why our Dutchies can't be in a romantic relationship, when her character, Telephone, is (most likely) in love with her husband's character, Radio? Is it so their characters can remain "SUPER SPECIAL, DONUT STEEL!"? *-I bet that's why.-*

[@bigdonutsandpinkcupcakes3721]

Because of the toxicity, I trashed my Dutchie fursona. I just wish that Dutchies were made by normal, good-hearted people who AREN'T toxic.

[@zay_rat8942]

[@diamonddampman9426]

I was in the Dutch community just long enough to adopt one and sell a couple adopts myself before an admin dug up one of my first practice doodles of a Dutch Angel Dragon and told me I was breaking rules because I used references and were really hateful and stuck up about it so I took my dragon and vamoosed. I just call him a draconequus (like discord) or a deer dragon cause he looks like a reindeer

[@kylebling8044]

Well I heard some dark stories about Telephone and her husband if there into horse beast fdup stuff well that's not loving animals the right way and should be kicked out of the Fandom ..IDC how cute the Fursona is a messed up human is a bad human

[@YinAndYang_ii]

Bro do the admins really not allow you to use reference sheets 💀

[@cinnmiel3047]

Heck! I love the alliteration in your name. I had no idea about the muzzle rule, but I did know about the horse features. When I was wanting to get a Dutch Angel Dragon I looked it up and found out that they were like horses. That seemed weird since they don’t really look like horses, like at all??

[@starlightsoiree]

1. THANK YOU!! i can honestly say that nobody has said that before! 2. They SHOULD look like horses according to species rules, but due to Ino's Telephone suit being more of a chibi style, this is often overlooked. In addition to that, Dutchie admins are warping the rules to include all fuzzy dragons which is... blatantly incorrect oof

[@tolawashere]

im 5 months late but omg finally!! i actually genuinely thought dutchies were tricos and was excited to to see them as fursuits. but finding out they were dutch angel dragons i was stuck in a phase of confusion. this was a long time ago tho. now, i hate it when people confuse tricos with dutchies tho. tricos are underrated and should become more popular in my opinon ^^

[@pixradox]

I dont call my sona a dutch but their backstory is the Dutch lore and one of betrayal. Yes, I've been bullied to by the community to where their actions and lies made me change the species mid backstory. Looks like a dutch in every way but has four extra teeth in that jaw gap. I do it to show others just how cruel those fluffy Angel dragon members can be.

[@bigdonutsandpinkcupcakes3721]

I'm sorry that you got bullied by them. I've never had that happen because I've never interacted with any of them but just know you didn't deserve to be bullied by those people. And I think it's sad how a lot of people think that just because Ino and the others have cute fursuits, it means that they're completely innocent. I have a friend who thinks that. I tried to tell her once that Ino is a problematic person, but I don't think she believed me.

[@NeuroticBotanist]

the fact that they’re not allowed to poop or have a digestive system is crazy. Like I can understand wanting to prevent fetish content, but that rule isn’t there for that reason. it’s to keep them cutesy and pure, which is so... childish.

[@0p0ssum]

not to mention the fact one of the archAngels (Nimbus, I think) said dutchies don’t have pride since they are so childish and technically sexless. That makes a lot of people think that they are ace-exclusionary

[@bigdonutsandpinkcupcakes3721]

Because of how toxic the Dutchie community is, I trashed my Dutchie fursona and a friend redesigned her as a red panda. I saw S0ULESSB0NES' video about the problem and it made me hate the species for a while. I kinda miss having my fursona be a Dutchie but I don't want people treating me like a criminal for it, so maybe I'll stick with distancing myself from the Dutchie community and keeping my sona as a red panda. Edit: Please note, I'm generally not a hateful person and I do NOT hate people who have Dutchie OCs. I just developed a dislike for the species because of how bad the people who made the species are. But I'm past the dislike for the species. I just haven't gotten over my anger because of the whole thing.

Hey guys don't worry I'm not here to chew you out so please read a little bit of this(?) ♡ I completely agree with this video and even though it stings you definitely made some great points 😅 really glad you elaborated instead of just saying the community is poop.. as a member of it, I confirm it is. I have a single dutch angel dragon (besides ones that are more for the 1s lore) that I created early into my time in the fandom and have loved him since despite his busy design. I've considered making a comic of him, his mate, and his parents to help myself elaborate on his own lore and the species lore for myself (not in reality show format don't worry). What's stopping me besides the anatomy that's a bitch to draw? That I feel so demotivated to do it with the bland/stale fan base. It's really kind if you stay in line, but nothing really ever happens...? It's so big, you'd think there would be events but like you said it's a bunch of kids (I'm 17 but I don't think I fall under the bad dutchie category according to everything else stated besides that lol). The only person who has drawn a piece or two of art even based off the lore is maybe ino and the person who did the art on the site and it's really upsetting. The lore is confusing, but I think it's a great base for a story or comic but no one's doing it and it frazzles me that there aren't even small single pages or anything hhhh I think you get my point. I am supposed to be booking a spot for the first parts of my dutchies suit in a few months and I'm so excited and don't plan on giving him up for a while, but I'm gonna be sad that I'm the only one following the no cloven hooves rule :"( anywho yeah I'm not trying to convert you but I'm glad as hecked off as you guys sounded, you didn't say anything that was far from true

[@crypticapocalypse]

Thank you soooo much!! This did not only help me fix up my dutchie design, but it told me rules around the Dutch Angel Dragon community. I have been a furry for about 2-3 years, but never heard any of this information. This is really helpful, and if anyone wants to learn about Dutchies then i'll give them the link to this video! Thank you ^w^

[@emerald_medusa]

I dislike that so many people have caused dutchies to have such discourse with other similar species...I really think as is with the whole furry fandom, Dutchies have the "speak before research" bug BAD. I have yet to have it happen to me (shockingly because my dutchie, who I adopted from someone else, has a full-blown white muzzle ring) but I have seen the gatekeeping over the muzzle ring rule even long after Ino lifted it and began allowing them and it is so annoying!! I've experienced similar issues in the main part of the fandom regarding my other suit and a whole different drama piece, but its never okay in any regard to be gatekeepy and point blame! As cool as it is to see younger furs in the fandom, a lot of our issues stem from literal children, and unfortunately some adults too, refusing to do anything except take something they heard once and run like the wind with it.. I believe our fandom as a whole would be a lot better off if people would listen to others and take the time to get all the facts and even back-check those facts themselves instead of going in leaps and bounds to conclusions.

[@yourlocalyoutubewatcher1380]

I dont think its bad to have someone insanity mistaken for a DAD. I mean it happens with all different animals. Hell ive had my raccoon mistaken for a dog, fox, mouse and more.

I become a furry due to Telephone. I never knew this side of the D.A.D community, since I was only ever on KZbin and Amino during my early furry days (Nelly, my Dutchie, is no longer my main. But she is still a secondary!) Nelly has a muzzle ring and has always had a muzzle ring, maybe for like 4 years? I've never had an issue with anyone saying my Dutchie was wrong. But I appreciate you bringing up such issues! It has been two years, so I hope these issues have been resolved.

[@xXZOMBIE_KATXx_EXE]

I personally think all the species rules are really stupid and you don't have to follow them. Just make your character however you want. It's YOUR character and nobody can tell you what or what not to do with it. at the end of the day it's just a fictional character, who cares if it follows a set of ridiculous imaginary rules. Just have fun and don't worry about upsetting randos cos ur made up dragon character has a certain marking on its nose.

[@DeepDiveWithClay]

This is so trueeee I have two main sonas which I love and have a huge connection with they are both just fluffy DRAGONS!! THEY ARE NOT DUTCHIES one of them has a muzzle ring which I did bc they are not a Dutchie, every single time I post sm with them I get so much backlash it’s annoying, and even Edith the shape of the head, I get people saying that it should look more like a Dutchie since that’s what it is, it’s sooooooo annyoing.

[@myastoywonderland2151]

I have also had a similar issue to the one mentioned in the video, I came up with this great idea for Dinomask (it has happened to me twice now) only to find out that someone has already done it. Then my idea doesn’t feel original anymore. What should I do?

[@starlightsoiree]

It doesn't matter if ideas are 'original' or not- just have fun! When people try to keep people from doing certain things because their species is 'closed' (like gatekeeping traits or colors or whatever), then that is bad. Don't steal from others of course, but sometimes we all have similar ideas! I feel the same way sometimes and get discouraged if others have ideas similar to what I've done or made. That's one reason it's important to make things for ourselves and not just for others!

I have a dutchie named void, they wear another dutchies skull (they didn’t kill them) and have black goo covering their horns and legs, does that count as breaking the rules

[@brookthemudwing2720]

I'm honestly kind of annoyed about the whole "no sexual" aspect of dutchies. Don't get me wrong, it's completely normal to want to keep it wholesome, but sexuality is a part of most people's lives :/ being able to explore sexuality in a healthy way and expressing it through your fursona is a very liberating aspect of the fandom, but it gets annoying quickly when you want a dutchie but have to just not be sexual in any way once you get it. Had a dutchie self sona for a while before I got told I was "being too explicit" when really I was just being myself. Just because my main is a dutchie doesnt mean I cant explore or act like an adult and not a toddler like they're apparently supposed to

My primary dislike and problem with the species isn’t the muzzle ring, but rather the genderless aspect of the species, I do find it cool and alright to have put in from a lore perspective, with a lot of work put in to tell how they canonically reform and such, but if I ever wanted to, say, commission an art piece of a Dutchie I were to create, being with someone very close to me, the fact that I would likely be immediately shunned, harassed, and exiled from the entire DutchAD community for such art existing practically destroys my comfort with the idea. Plus there’s all the previous accounts of people being harassed for even smaller things that sometimes aren’t even warranted accusations

[@starlightsoiree]

I find it's a valid issue but ultimately neither here nor there- I've seen just as many people be nitpicked for having dutchies with gender presentations as not. I dropped the dutchie moniker completely and just labelled as a 'traditional' angel dragon and folks seem to leave well enough alone!

Why is this channel dead

[@starlightsoiree]

I want to make more content but unfortunately, things cost money

I have an Irish Wolfhound suit that gets called a Schnauzer all the time. Slightly annoying, but not the end of the world. I have a Scottish Fold cat that people ask me what breed of DOG he is when I commission art for him. Again, annoying, but not the end of the world. People make mistakes. Dutch Angel Dragons, or angelic dragons in general, are quite popular, and there's nothing wrong with that! What is wrong is people being butthurt over someone calling their fursuit the wrong species when that other person has NO earthly way of knowing what that creature may be, and they call it what they believe it might be. Some people will claim, "Well, it's just common sense", but unfortunately, not everyone has that. People do "chibi" style Dutch Angel Dragons fursuits because that's the style the current Telephone suit was crafted in by PhoenixNest almost six years ago to date, and everyone wants to be as popular as Telephone (Why, I have no idea, the poor creature can't even walk out into the lobby without being bombarded and pulled around by the tail). The suit was designed LONG before DUTCH Angel Dragons were even a thing. Ino isn't trying to "own fuzzy dragons", she's trying to develop a species while also working full time on fursuits AND still have a social life. She doesn't have time to tell EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN THE FANDOM, "Hey, this is my species and these are the rules, please follow them if you want to be a part of it." Some people love them and follow them to the letter, while others don't, so they make a character that LOOKS like a "cute, chibi, fuzzy dragon", but doesn't follow the rules of the species because they're not a part of it. That's where the members of the Dutch Angel Dragon community come in to offer aid to people designing a Dutch Angel Dragon. Some lack finesse and don't always handle those situations the way they should be, but they're not doing it to be mean or rude, they're doing it to keep people from unintentionally (or sometimes intentionally) breaking rules. All in all, you can't police an entire group of people to do something, or to not to do something. All you can do is politely correct people who make mistakes, and ignore the people who don't respect you or your hard work :)

I really think you missed the point of the video, man. Some people are annoyed at being called Dutchies repeatedly; and that's ok! That's a valid thing to be annoyed at! It's bad that every short-snouted and/or tiny winged creature is mistaken for a Dutchie, but there's nothing inherently wrong with that. However, the fact that people are acusing every short-snouted or short winged creature of ripping off the Dutchie design IS wrong. The fact that the Dutchie fanbase has so many children that wrongly attack contributes to this. I am fully aware that Ino can't police every person in the fanbase. Ino, however, has admins. These admins are both not doing their jobs and abusing their power and warping the rules of what makes a Dutchie, which only worsens the situation. People have a right to be annoyed. If you can not be annoyed by the sheer amount of confusion? Good for you! But there is a problem surrounding the Dutchie communitie's adamance that 'if it looks like a Dutchie then it's a Dutchie', because most Dutchies do not resemble their own species and follow their rules in the slightest.

this so called telephone person happens to live a few blocks form me and i kinda am annoyed with her dum chirping it hurts my ears but you know what ever this lady sounds like she do-sent know how to run a real company or whatever she dose shes just aonying

[@real_magixrex1252]

At least your not being as toxic as S0ULLESSB0NES who was making cringe compilations about telephone. Your being reasonable unlike S0UL. Also, I dislike how you can’t have a gender besides non-binary, I don’t know if that’s a rule anymore though. I just got my Dutchie head base in the mail, but that doesn’t mean I support the creator fully.

[@skywolfanimation4707]
