Anthrosexual

The year is 2457. Earth is vastly different from what we know in the present. After the cataclysmic events of World War 5, most of the planet is uninhabitable, nothing more than war torn, irradiated wasteland. The only real country left, formerly known as the United States of America, seems like a bustling utopia on the surface. And it is, as long as you're a human.

Near the beginning of the war, the world's top scientists began to experiment with infusing animals with human DNA, making them more humanoid in appearance. These creatures were dubbed "Anthroids" and were essentially used as manual labor and cannon fodder in the military.

This way, human lives were spared, at the cost of many of these artificial beings. After the war was over, these Anthroids wanted to be recognized as equals by humanity for their service and sacrifice. But of course, humans being humans, most of them rejected this notion.

It's been a century since the end of the war, and after many protests and demonstrations, Anthroids are somewhat more accepted into society, but still have a long way to go to be seen as equals. Some even took humans as lovers. These humans, commonly referred to as Anthrosexuals, are often looked down on with disgust and ridicule by most others.

Otherwise, it doesn't matter if one is white, black, hispanic or asian. Straight, gay or bisexual. As long as you're not an anthroid or anthrosexual, you're seen as an equal. Turns out, all humanity needed to truly bring peace between themselves was common ground.

Welcome to the 25th century.
