I once knew a lady who was terrified of red pandas for exactly this reason, the fact they would stand on two legs "like a human" despite not being human just freaked her out. So maybe there's something to it.

I hope she never sees a sun bear.

[–] mfed1122@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 1 month ago

Sun bears are definitely justifiably cursed.

So when she first said this. It was long ago, a time when red pandas were much less popular. So many in the group did not know what they looked like, I among them. From her fear, I inferred it must be something like, well, a panda, but red, and maybe skinnier and freakier. Then she pulled up a picture, and everybody lost it

Was she also scared of dogs?

[–] mfed1122@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 1 month ago

This was asked of her. The answer was no, and the reasoning was that they won't walk like that. She knew it was irrational lol
