Being A Furry 2012-01-15 15:38:22 Reply

yes, i am a furry, and im not ashamed to admit it. i also have some tips for my fellow furries (aka furfriends) on being a furry

Being A Furry In Public

best not to even suggest it. even a lunchbox with a cat face on it is dangerous, especially for guys. for girls, they can get away with it. age dependency is questionable. definitely should not walk around in a fursuit (fursuits discussed soon) shouting "HEY EVERYONE! IM A FURRY!". you'd be a disgrace to us and giving us a bad name.

Creating A Fursuit

try to avoid it. even how much of a furry i am, not a good idea to make a fursuit, even if you are going to a convention. my best advice on how to make a fursuit is dont.

Going To A Convention

best not to say what it really will be to your peers, unless they're furries themselves, in which case, they'll probably want to go with you. describing it as "yiff, paws and pizza" is not a good idea. you can tell the truth, but you dont have to tell which truths. you can also disguise the truths by saying something like "fantasy with potential sci-fi convention. honest opinions where none will be made fun of" is a better way of saying it. trouble starts when non-furries want to go with you.

Misconceptions Of Furries

alot of non-furries mistake us as sex-crazed fiends who want to commit bestiality. WRONG. not very many of us are. those that are... they're not normal furries. most of us are civilized people with their inner furryness as a secret. people also think that we masturbate to the art. not all of us do. alot of us appreciate the art, but not that much. many also think that we RP as anthro creatures having sex. that is also mostly wrong. ill admit that some of us actually do that, but not all of us. like i said before, most of us are civilized people. the people that actually do what most of us dont are the ones that give us a bad name. those are the people who are ballooned up and paid attention to as an 'example' of what we 'actually are'. those are the minority of us.

being a furry is not something to be ashamed of. but then again, its not something where you should go onto a rooftop and scream "IM A FURRY!" and fall of the roof and die. that gives us a bad name.

remember this, you have a choice. hunted, or hunter.


My life for Aiur, Cynofrax, The Aura, Mobius, the Xel'Naga, those kinds of things.

I don't think most people even know what furries are, though that's not to say that they wouldn't still think you were crazy if they saw you in a fursuit.

I don't even get why furries wear fursuits, they're creepy as fuck.

Some would say that makes you an anthro-enthusiast rather than a furry.

Furries amuse me.

I don't hate them, and I don't support them, but they amuse me.

I enjoy some of the porn and partake in the occasional roleplay. It's a guilty pleasure, but it's me. I wouldn't call myself a "furry" as I'm open to mess about with most things. There is always a line though.

In a sense. I understand the concept of furries. It's the imaginative realm's way of expressing the animal within us.. but not of us.


You do not make examples, you make excuses; you do not solve problems, you shift problems; you do not stand behind your statements, you stand behind your stasis.

Nobody actually cares if you're openly a furry. Quit thinking your shitty fetish is a lifestyle and quit forcing it into people's senses.

~ahem~

Your thinking of beastiality, where as furry, in most cases, is a form of art in witch animals are given anthropomorphic features. In the cases its not an art form, it is a fandom in witch people dress up in fur-suits and/ or hang out with other furries. Some of the more literary furries write fur-fictions.

Do you really have to add the word 'fur' to every fucking thing? It's pretty goddamn annoying.

And do you see the kind of shit they draw? Fuck man! They have to draw animals with giant ass dicks, cartoonishy large dicks, which I know they're cartoons, but for fucks sake! Is it really necessary?

I wouldn't describe myself as a furry, though some stuff is just hawt. I think that's just being open minded though.

My opinion:
If you are a furry, don't associate yourself with furries. Their reputation is already ruined beyond repair and you only harm yourself by labelling yourself as a furry. Consider yourself a fan of anthropomorphic characters or something, but never a furry. People will label you anyway but at least you don't do it yourself.

The same goes for many other horrible 'fandoms'.

i used to be famous here because of my furryism.

of course, a large amount of the people that liked me is gone now, but that doesnt matter.

Being a furry made me well know for a while
