Is there a special reason why bowling is so "popular" in the fandom?

Furry Reddit - Sat 24 Jan 2015 - 13:49

Maybe it's just me, but everyfur seems to love it and I'm just curious as to why :D

Skyscraper among the furs

Furry Reddit - Sat 24 Jan 2015 - 13:33

So I've been into anthropomorphics for years, drawing personified characters, and more recently cosplaying as them. But here's the thing- I draw anthro skyscrapers!

I've got a friend who's a big time furry, getting his first fursuit later this year, and he's recently started going to furry cons and loving it. Me? Even if I don't call myself furry per se, I love the creativity that flows through the furry community- I've seen some great artwork from very talented people, and amazing costumes. And I also love the fact that in the furry community, original characters still have a place, and have not been pushed to the sidelines in favor of recreation-based costuming. (Mainstream geek cons used to be dominated by OCs, now you get a lot of people who look down on or dismiss them because they're not a recreation of something published.)

So my furry friend thinks I should come with him to a con, and bring my Skyscraper-gear. He says that I'd get along nicely there, that originality and creativity are celebrated, and after all, personified skyscrapers are just another type of anthro. He also says I'm a lot less likely to be body shamed and made fun of at a fur-con than some other geek conventions (I'm short and kind of chubby, sadly a mindset that cosplay=modelling or body doubling has taken root in some segments of the geek community)

Is my friend right? If he is, then I definitely look forward to attending a furry con! (I'll just have to make sure my costume armor and robes can withstand lots of hugs!)

New icon for my fursona, Skyy.

My two cents about this place.

Furry Reddit - Sat 24 Jan 2015 - 13:01

You guys are awesome.

I was initially a member of the FA Forums when I decided I wanted to interact more within the community instead of lurking. It was welcoming and warm, and I swapped watches with a few people. But then I left my introduction thread. It's always the same people commenting on everything, trashing people that don't have the same opinion, biting the new furs when they don't follow convention, and being generally elitist about their status as a high-level poster. It seemed like a really harsh place and wasn't really enticing.

I've been a Redditor for three years though, so I knew there was a community on here as well. Although, I never really bothered to post. Didn't want my Reddit username to be associated, and didn't want to create a throwaway.

But when I finally introduced myself, you were all so fucking friendly. And it's Reddit, so the majority of you were very level-headed and grounded when responding. I've made some good friends here already and they related to a whole range of common interests.

I was in a weird place in my life (won't get into that here) and you guys collectively pulled me out of it.

Please keep being awesome. Happy roo

I think I might be a furry

Furry Reddit - Sat 24 Jan 2015 - 12:12

I've had a bit of a thing for anthropomorphic pictures for a while now but it was only until last night when I realised that I actually like them a lot more than most people. Especially when you have dreams about being an anthropomorph for as long as I can remember. Am I going crazy and over analyzing or am I really a furry?

Are His Fetishes Interfering with a Real Sex Life?

Furry News Network - Sat 24 Jan 2015 - 07:56
Author: Dear Papabear, I’ve been a long time lurker of this site, and I’m very glad that there is an advice column specifically for Furries. It’s difficult explaining certain problems to people who are not part of the fandom, so I am very grateful My question is a sexuality issue. But before we get to […]

In what universe does your fursona reside?

Furry Reddit - Sat 24 Jan 2015 - 07:36

This universe? A medieval setting? The future? A steampunk world? Provide a backstory if you like. Would love to see the responses :3

Furries, Help would be very much appreciated ^^

Furry Reddit - Sat 24 Jan 2015 - 05:51

Hello fellow furs <3

I seem to be having difficulty in finding a name for my female dragoness, she is a blue/purple aquatic dragon who happens to be smaller than average. I'm not after any generic names but something unique

Ive tried multiple names but I don't feel as if they suit her, so any suggestions or ideas would be very helpful ^

Just a quick question about hotel rooming at cons...

Furry Reddit - Sat 24 Jan 2015 - 01:45

I've planned to go to my first con (CaliFur) this summer, but I just would like some advise. Considering I don't have anyone to room with, would it be better to book my stay at the hotel hosting the convention or find a cheaper hotel just a little bit out of the way?

Customize Your Furry-Wear!

In-Fur-Nation - Sat 24 Jan 2015 - 01:43

Lemonbrat describe themselves as a collection of artists who hand-make a variety of customizable anthropomorphic and rave-themed clothing. Very very customizable in fact, with dozens of furry-themed doo-dads that can be added to the various hoodies, dresses, bags, and other goodies that they sew together. And that’s on top of the fact they have many animal species in their catalog to begin with, from foxes to raccoons to rabbits to honey badgers (!) and more. Take a look at the Lemonbrat web site for all the clothing and other items they sell, and click on “Custom” to find out how they can personalize a look just for you. It’s not just ears and tails!

I ventured out into the reddit world and it was frightening

Furry Reddit - Sat 24 Jan 2015 - 01:28

I've gotten so comfortable with the people here and it being a decently sized, welcoming community, I made the terribad mistake of posting in a much larger sub. (league of legends fans, you all probably saw it if you were there today)

Edit (phrasing): Let's just say I'll never be holding discussions there again.

I just wanted to say you all are awesome and it's so wonderful to have a group online to feel comfy with!
