Should werewolves wear clothes?

[Sindaine]

Why? They're already wearing fur coats!

SRSanswer: No. Ever tried putting clothing on an exciteable dog? Now imagine dressing that same dog when it weighs 200 pounds and wants to eat your face. Not good odds on that.

If they're, you know, visible, then yes they should wear clothes.

Just to cover those bits, not necessarily anything else?

So...underwearwolves?

Werewolves wear clothes because before they turned they were wearing clothes. They don't throw some on, they just keep what they had on on. I don't go for moonlit walks on the full moon nights without clothes, so any werewolf who while human has a sense of decency would become the wolf and end up wearing the, while more than likely tattered but still very much there, clothes.

Eh, I'm more in the no-clothes camp. Erana's screencap makes a point in that an animal in clothing looks ridiculous.

Now, in human form? I don't care one way or the other. The minute fur's involved, though, it doesn't really make sense for the clothes to remain - and anyway, how would one even dress a werewolf? I can't see it being easy to accommodate those hind legs, even if they are standing erect.

No, but they should probably do something about the old pubic region if they want to attract the ladies.

I would certainly at least try something like a loincloth or whatever. I would definitely feel weird running around all nude.

Depends how rich they are? Constantly tearing your clothes all the time can add up money wise. But it does look good on movies.....shirts tearing.....fur showing. Its not so much werewolves need clothes as can we get away with a werewolf penis showing?

I'd hate to die with an unused bone. It seems like a good waste of resources...

Well, then, stick in a pot of water and cook it down for a few hours. Make sure its super hot, and keep adding water periodically to make sure that you get a good amount of broth. If you season the boiling hot water beforehand, you can even cut into the thing (I'd suggest just a sharp knife, as a hammer would be a little too excessive considering how much the bones soften in water) and you could have yourself a nice bone marrow boil. Though after being cooked like that, the rest of the bone wouldn't be very useful for gardening bonemeal, I don't think.

Because it would be too damn hot wearing clothing on top of all that fur. It's bad enough people dress up their dogs, let's hope werewolves don't ever wear crappy sweaters.

Yeah, I've been wondering about this. I always feel bad for kaijit in Elder Scrolls games, or any hairy or feathery anthropomorphic peoples for that matter; wouldn't it get horribly hot and pinched in all that fabric or armor? They'd have to shave all the time and that would just look silly.

Still, I don't think women werewolves would have to worry about much if it were realistic werewolves we're talking. Multiple pairs of tiny nipples on a flat chest? Psh. If you're getting excited over that, you're either a puppy or really desperate.

But while we're on the topic of werewolves in clothes...

Spoiler: True Blood did this:

Now, the character's either a werewolf or a general shapeshifter, but that's totally a baby malamute and not a wolf. But does this mean she's just a shapeshifter who likes dogs, or is it meant to be a wolf and they just expect the general audience to not know that much about dogs? I mean, the internet is saying "werewolf," but that is totally a puppydog in a nightgown! Am I supposed to make assumptions based on the cgi glowing amber eyes? I just don't know...

He he he he, yeah, good idea... I was talking about erections, but broth would be good too... Can it be used as something other than a soup base, or am I stuck with a soup base?...

If I were a werewolf, I would NEVER wear clothes...

But I think the reason werewolves generally don't wear clothes is to make the creatures more savage in nature.
