Furry Thread!

by **Rocopurr** » Thu Mar 28, 2013 8:14 pm

I'm not a big part of the fandom or anything, but I would consider myself a fan of the art, style, and whatnot. So yes, I'm a furry.

by **Liriena** » Thu Mar 28, 2013 8:14 pm

I approve of furries wholeheartedly, and I give this thread my blessing.

I'm into cute, girly male furries. You know, like Umeboshi, the Flaming Tart. :3

It honestly wasn't until about a year ago that I actually came to identify as a furry rather than someone who loosely followed the fandom.

My species came rather naturally, with my past dabbling in neopaganism leading to some degree of identity with an animal spirit. Despite having abandoned that belief, I still felt a strange sense of identity with the species. It's really odd to explain. I don't actively claim to be a member of that species, nor do I have a desire to be one, but it feels as though it is a part of me in some fashion.

I sadly still have much work to do on my fursona, having little more than a name (which I'm starting to have my reservations about the surename). I've attempted to try to draw her on many occassions, but I have yet to properly master the artform.

Yeah. I'm not too good at drawing myself, but luckily there are several affordable artists around.

to be honest until today, I didn't know these pictures had a name to them. (I just thought they were Human looking animal fandom drawings. I didn't know they had a name)

I don't really "get it" but people should be allowed to do what they want and not be harassed for it...I mean within reasonable limits of not inflicting emotional damage/physical damage that is unwanted or taking advantage of children.

Oh boy, yeah, I do ask you not mention yiff artists (no matter how good) to a minimum, I'd prefer to not have a minor google-ing them.

Well, now you do. If you like them, now you know what to look for!

Such would be a violation of rule number 2 and the mods would be notified immediately.

true. (much simpler than typing in human looking animal fandom pics into google)

You know that one gif that's of that British actor who's speechless and flailing with his hands? That's about where i'm at at this point

Oh, I've been hoping this thread would appear at some point.
I am into the cute aspects of the fandom. Because I get an urge to hug everything.

Your rules don't mean anything. There is not thread ownership in General, you can't tell me to do anything. I'm not trolling, I'm not flaming. Chill bro.

Imma very up front guy, and Imma tell you how it's gonna have to be done so I don't have to come back out here. In short, I approve.

I've not had what I would describe an all-around positive experience, but I've never met a particularly vicious furry...

Well, I went to a family-friendly furry forum. Perhaps that's why.

how does one become a furry? do you need to pass some test or get some kind of bachelor's degree?
