Do you fursuit? Why or why not? What are your opinions on fursuits? Which species do you think lend themselves to fursuits? Who makes the best suits and which fursuitors are your favorite? And any other things I may have forgotten.

Haven't watched either series in years and I just recently added it back to my list of things to watch, probably this weekend.

Any other fans around here? It's still a fairly down low anime from what I've seen but damn do I love it.

So back when streaming with livestream was the big thing, I got an account and did the same. Now livestream...was never friendly with me. It was computer intensive and seemed unnecessarily so.

I'm seriously hoping there are better programs out there. Would like to get back into streaming art nights

Note: sorry otters, this doesn't refer to you. I'm talking to the whales, dolphins and sharks out there...and any other legless critter.

I realize this will be a small minority but you are the people I wanna know from, what made you choose such a different creature?

The whole not having legs must make that bizarrely difficult, and I'd love to see what exactly your sona looks like in that case.

It's so interesting to me, I just gotta know these things!

I've recently made friends with a couple of furries, and they've changed my perspective on and understanding of furries, which I think is a yay all round. I have been asked if I want to be a fur, and my answer was (and still is) "I don't know". Mostly because I don't feel I understand enough about furry fandom.

So, I was wondering if anyone would like to continue to educate me on what it is being a fur means to you, what you do as a fur (e.g. attending cons), or even just how identified as a fur in the first place. I'm genuinely curious, and feel I owe it to you guys (as a collective) to educate myself instead of assuming.

FWIW, I gave some serious consideration to the thought "if I had a fursona who/what would I be?". The answer I came up with, when considering things such as my natural affinity with animals and the kind of person I'd want my fursona to be, is a black panther named Cheshire. Namely because I'm constantly smiling, and panthers are sleek, strong, lithe, proud, and wise (in their own way). And while the same could be said for all felines, the black panther just appeals.

Hey Papabear! You might remember me from a bit back (about a month or so). And thanks for your help, I made like 3 furiends!!!!

So my question now is this: I am bisexual, and on my gay side I like furry. I need to tell my parents this, but they are very, very conservative Christians. So I should elaborate on them I guess...

So my dad already knows I am a furry, which he doesn't know much about, though he is aware of the sexual aspect of the fandom, and currently believes I am completely uninterested in it. He will most certainly not take me being bi well at all. He is VERY close-minded.

My mom doesn't know that I am a furry, nor is she, to my knowledge, aware of the existence of the fandom. She will also definitely freak out about me being bi. She, too, is close-minded.

My parents are still together, though about my dad knowing I am a furry and my mom not ... that is because my dad just didn't really think my mom needed to know, which now that I think about it feels kinda ... wrong.

My older sister is probably the only one who won't be bothered. She listens when things matter, and doesn't hold people to past actions. Though when something isn't important she can be VERY mean.

My little brother is 10 and really doesn't need to know about this stuff, so I only mention him for full clarity of the situation.

So in my family the most open minded people are my sister and me.

So thanks,
Brozin Flamepelt (age 13)

Hi, Brozin, and welcome back :3 I’m glad the previous letter helped you connect with some new furiends!

So, two things here: being bi and being furry. On the first subject, I would suggest you slow down a bit. I am not saying you are not bisexual, but at the tender age of 13 you are still going through a lot of changes—physically, mentally, emotionally—and things might change for you. This is because the years or puberty are very confusing ones. It is not unknown for someone to think they are bi or gay and later figure out that they really aren’t, or, as in my case, believe they are straight and later discover (much later! in my case) that they are really gay. Therefore, before you go telling any friends or family members you are bi, please take some time to really work on discovering yourself and who you are.

Make yourself 100% sure of your sexuality before you go confessing anything. And don’t rush it; it might take a few years. You might, eventually, years from now, please, have a sexual encounter with a man or a woman and discover you don’t really enjoy it ... or you do. Again, please hold off on this particular confession. You are 13, and it is rather early for you to be worrying about such adult things. Please take a few more years and enjoy being a kid. We are in much too much of a hurry in American society to push our youth into adulthood.

About being furry: Papabear’s written about this extensively in the past. Please look at the Coming Out Furry category on the Letters page. In short, the best approach, especially with conservative parents, is to: 1) not make a big deal about being a furry—explain it as a fun and harmless hobby, 2) be completely open with your furry activities and make it clear to your parents that they can look at your computer files at any time (hide nothing; this builds trust), and 3) see if you can’t get them to take you to a furry convention so they can see, first-hand, that there is nothing to be anxious or fretful about.

(Note: I am researching and writing The Furry Book and am working very hard to complete it by the end of this year; it will contain, among many many other things, advice on this particular topic).

Again: hold off on confessing about being bi until you are absolutely certain about it; then write to me again; and take a laid-back approach about being a furry. I know this is kind of a mixed message (be quiet about being bi, but open about being furry), but your age in this case makes this approach relevant for you right now. Things will change as you get older.

Our childhood is gone in a flash. We all need to take the time to slow down and enjoy life. Kids should enjoy being kids, and parents and society need to stop pressuring our youth to grow up before they are ready to do so.

Good luck!

Papabear


P.S. Your instinct is correct that your father not talking to your mom about your being furry is “kinda wrong.” Sounds like they have some communication issues of their own. You note that your parents are “still” together; my bear instincts tell me they are having some marital issues, no? I hope they can patch things up. Hugs.

I've never really been a big fan of fursuiting, primarily because of the way furries act in them.

The way I see it is that anthro characters are mainly human with animal characteristics. So it feels really out of place when seeing a furry in a suit acting purely like the animal, making animal noises, and not talking. I understand the reasoning behind that last one, but it's still out of place.

If I had a suit, I would likely act as any other human would, but simply change my personality to reflect that of the character. Which is anthropomorphic.

What are your thoughts?

Time itself. Jeff’s worst enemy. Seems the all night gaming frenzy had taken a toll on him. By the time he fell asleep after browsing Instagram on his phone, it was already 8 o clock in the morning.

Jeff’s parents had already bought Jeff an alarm clock but he never plugged it in. If he knew better he wouldn’t have tried to pull the all-nighter and he would realise that he is late for school, which starts in 30 minutes and is exactly 30 minutes away.

“Can you stop dissing me?” Jeff barks.

Well, it seems like Jeff didn’t get any sleep at all.

“Stop it.”

You do know its 8 o clock now?

“Yeah. I’m sure it is. Haha, wait a minute” Jeff looked at the time on his phone. 8:02. “OHCRAPOHCRAPOHCRAP”

Jeff jumped out of bed and threw the nearest pair of trousers on, and threaded his tail through the back. He threw a random T-Shirt on with “Quiet is not in my vocabulary!” printed on the front. He jumped down the stairs and rolled into the kitchen, slamming down some cereal and orange juice. He threw on his bag and sped through the door. He ran to Bank station and boarded the train to Stratford.

Chapter 1: The Class Clown

“We are now approaching Stratford, where this train terminates.”

Jeff bounces up and down by the door of the train, his paw on the button to open the door. “Come on! Open!” he whimpers. A girl waiting to get out giggled.
“Typical of a border collie like you. Very characterful.” Jeff smiled at the human. She was quite pretty, a Caucasian girl, about 14, Jeff’s age. They both step out onto the platform and begin running for the exit. “Same school?” Jeff asked. “Yeah! Names Sam, by the way.”
She smiles back to Jeff as she tapped her Oyster card on the barrier’s reader. “We talked in the canteen for a little bit.” “Oh yeah, we did. On Frida-AAH!” Jeff exclaimed as he got his tail caught in the now beeping barrier. Sam walked over to Jeff laughing. “Well, maybe you could ask the staff here to write you a late note.” Sam giggled.

After a conversation with the station staff, Jeff and Sam walked over to the school, walked their separate ways and went to class. Jeff had an IT lesson and he walked into class.
“Why are you so late, Ferguson?” Jeff looked at the teacher, a German shepherd.
“My name’s Jiff” Jeff laughed, as a reference to a popular film at that time. The whole class that were silent before all laughed. The German shepherd gave a disapproving laugh.
“I actually enjoyed that film, so I’ll let you off the hook.”
