How to Know if Your a Furry (and How did you become a Furry?)
Hi there Furry community, I have lurked around on this subreddit and /r/yiff a long time and I have to say I am really interested in this fandom. However I have never seen myself as a Furry until recently. I have drawn animals and anthromorphic beings for a long time now (almost 4 years now). I have always had a fasination with animals particularly cats.Anyways enough jibber jabber, I would like you know how do you know if your a Furry and how did you come into the fandom (the 2nd part if optional, you don't have to answer that.) I will look at this thread and answer questons in a bit.

A Furry Who Is Also a Brony Wants to Unite the Two
I keep hearing about animosity between Furries and Bronies. Having recently become a fan of My Little Pony, and having been a Furry for several years, I'm thinking about a possible way to end the feud. Would going to a Brony convention as a "sleeper furry," making friends with a lot of people there, and revealing I'm a Furry at the last minute be a good idea, or do you think I should do something different?

Hi, Alec,
It’s nice of you to want to do something to help unite Bronies with the rest of the fandom, but I’m not so sure your strategy is a good idea. Mostly because you are taking advantage of people’s trust and then revealing at the last minute you’re a furry (although, ironically, IMO all Bronies are already furries). This immediately sends a message to the Bronies that you have been lying to them, which will naturally make them wonder if you can be trusted in the future.
Even if your idea did work and the Bronies really liked you, just the fact that you were cool with them wouldn’t mean they would think that all furries would be just as cool. In fact, they would be very foolish to make such a generalization.
I believe, like everything else in the fandom, there will always be some conflict between furries and Bronies because, psychologically speaking, whenever you differentiate between two groups of people you create an “us” vs. “them” mentality that cannot be fully overcome.
However, there is hope that we can minimize such animosities over time.
It’s rather silly that we should be fighting each other, but that’s what people tend to do. It doesn’t matter if you’re a furry, Brony, mundane, or whatever. People are naturally prone to this type of mentality in which they form tight bonds within groups and then look at others with fear, anger, or mistrust. The best way to stop this is to join groups under one umbrella, but if you asked Bronies to call themselves furries, or vice versa, you would get resistance, which means possibly creating a new name for all groups—furries, Bronies, therians, otherkin etc. etc.—which would be artificial and rather strained.
I suppose such things are best left to heal organically or not at all. If we could combine diversity with tolerance, that would be the best solution of all. Or, as Tom Lehrer once made famous with a song, perhaps we should have a national day of tolerance to unite us.

Here’s the song :-)
I drew a boyfriend! Still in the sketchy phase but I wanted to share. I'm amazed at how much I've improved in a short amount of time!
Relatively new here, aid?
Been here about one week (I've been a furry for a long time though), so I'd like to get to know y'all, and the proper way to be here. Help? Made a few posts, nothing much. What kinda people are you?
I seriously don't know how to ask for help...
Edit: I just like having conversations too...

Hey r/furry, anyone know any good furry dating sims?
(No, I don't want it, a friend does, and I'm his shameless questioner.)

Made a Game Grumps-styled furry icon for a friend of mine recently. How do you guys think it turned out?
Not new, but quiet furry here..
20 year old, Male fennic here with black and white fur. And I wear a lot of green. :p And like the title says, I'm not exactly new. I've been a furry for quite some time, I just never really talked to anyone about it. I go on SecondLife every once in a while, ad I've met some of the coolest people on there. But lately me and all my SL friends and completely lost contact. It's kind of sad. I moved an hour away from where I grew up, so I've been kinda lonely lately. I've been out here a year and haven't met a single person. So I guess I'm just wondering if anyone wants to talk? Maybe kik or something. :3
