We’ll just all assume that every person who gets this would make themselves early twenties with flawless skin, perfect organs, appendages and functionality, and no excess weight.

My question is, would you change yourself from your genetic baseline, and if so, how?

    Depends, if it’s only biological changes, I’d get myself two hearts, and minimize the chances of any disease or aging knocking me out, then become an anthro folf because being hooman is overrated

    If cybernetics are allowed, I’d probably get rid of the damn body and just have a virtual one, with my brain connected to some machine deep underground

      I ain’t judging the furry thing but man, I just cannot imagine wanting to trade the best graspers on land (human hands) with paws

        Mostly curious, but if you added simple opposable thumbs to say a cat or a dog paw, would that be bad or good?

        Maybe that’s a simple way to put it but like what would the consequences be it’s what I’m asking.

        I think hands with pawpads and some proper claws are a good compromise :3

        I’d be an anthro, so all the benefits of being hooman without being hooman (except sweating, so you’d be able to outrun me eventually)

          I guess I shouldn’t have assumed what the hands would be like since I’m not well-versed in fursonas lol sorry
