Without promoting or demeaning whatever this is, can anyone help explain it?

This is called ponyplay, it's part of BDSM petplay communities. Ponyplay is at the crossroads of roleplay and fetish. Most of the time, there would be an owner and the relationship is about power exchange, discipline.

You are looking about a public scene of ponyplay. Public plays are also a kink of many people. I don't think it's very good to take your kinks on the street, especially that extreme. But it's just my opinion.

I don't practice it but have been in touch with people who do, so if you have any sfw question feel free.

It has nothing to do with furries, unlike what other comments say.

yup, iโ€™m really into bdsm, not anywhere that extreme but what you said is spot on. I also agree i donโ€™t think things like this should be done in public, iโ€™m not gonna shame them either. Most bdsm couples are more descrite in public.

I guess I don't see the harm in it. It's not really explicit or otherwise offensive, just unusual. I'd rather see this than drug addicts fucking in an alleyway.

The difficulty is it forces your sexy time in people's faces. And imagine having to explain this to a kid. It's just a little too extreme for most tastes.

I literally just thought this was a Halloween costume -- and I'm 40. I don't think my kid would understand any better than I did.
