"Rubberfur", while quite logical, this term is new to me. Let's move it to "Men in latex"!
So far as I can tell 'furries' are different to 'plushies' in that while 'furries' can wear rubber, 'plushies' don't.
If I'm talking nonsense, please educate me!
Coming from that community, I think the best way to describe it is that 'furry' is a very high-level descriptor that basically just means enjoyment of animals with some level of anthropomorphism (human-like quality), from Disney movies to drawings to fursuits to playing as one (sexual or not). You can tag quite a lot of things onto the term 'furry.' If you like latex animal suits, that would be a latex-fur. Mix bondage in with it? That's a bondage fur. If you make music, you might be considered a furry musician. And so on. There are also a bunch of sub-categories (as opposed to dom-categories 😉 ) such as pup (like the pup hood in the video), plush (extra fluffy and squishy), scaly (for the reptile fans), etc. Mix and match as you like.
So, 'plush' and 'rubberfur' are both just different expressions of 'furry.' I've seen people who wear a latex suit under a plush suit (I have to imagine they are absolutely roasting in that), or a plush suit with rubber accents, so that would be both plush and rubberfur.
