Not all furries believe themselves to be or want to be animals. It’s a simple interest in anthropomorphic animal art. You’re thinking of therians.

I don’t think many people had “a thing” for mermaids though. It was just another human creature with boobs. I don’t think most people thought about it any deeper than that

It’s always a minority thing. Just like with furries.

Not to be confused with therians, a taxonomic group.
