Sociology Experiment
Hey everyone, I have a question for you all. I am a budding sociologist in my college, and I wanted to perform a breaching experiment on campus, I was thinking about wearing a tail around campus for the day and report on the comments given in a paper. What kind of tail do you think would have the most effect. Do you all also think that wearing it for a day for science would be worth the ramifications that would result on my status at college?
Edit: Also, could you all tell me some good sources for these tails?

What are your favourite printed furry comics?
I'm looking for some high quality printed comics to buy. I know there are a lot of ongoing online ones, but I like reading having some comics in more traditional format.
If you can, please provide some link to the comic description and/or sample pages, as well as some place I can find some information on the artists who created the comic.

ActFur S4 Ep08 – Dreams - This episode we're delving into your MIIIIIIINDS~! Well, actually we discuss the mystery of dreams and sleep! We're also still in shock from news of a potential BACON SHORTAGE, sip not-so-radio-active bear and wag our tails in
The only thing more common than the unpleasent furry; the person whining about said furry. And perhaps more of a problem. Thoughts?
Every single day, I check /r/furry, I check FurAffinity, and maybe a couple other sites. Every single day, there's a journal or post sitting there whining about other furries. Every single day, I read that post, and, every single day, I go "Wait, who did what now? I've never seen that".
This leads to my thought: Perhaps I have incredible luck in avoiding the unpleasant people, or perhaps the problem is not as bad as we think. Not to say that these people do not exist, but that perhaps we're creating an echo chamber here, and instilling the false belief that a large percentage of furries are these 'horror stories' we hear. Which (reaching a bit here) is reinforced on the rare chance that we actually see one, or, at least, what we assume to be one.
When, in reality, it's a few bad eggs, and a lot of people smearing those eggs over everything, and making the whole place stink.
So, yeah, just a theory. I certainly haven't met everyone in the fandom, but from my point of view, we're just pointlessly messing up our own image with all our bitching and moaning at each other about how much other furries suck. Could be completely wrong, but that's why I posted it here, so I can see what y'all think.

‘Heat 9? interview: contributors Whyte Yote and Alastair Wildfire
If I used to hump and ejaculate on many of my stuffed animals as a young man, does that make me a furry lover?
I stopped about 17 when I started banging a little fattie chcik around the corner. But I look back on those days fondly

Paying bills through design, drugs and drawing
http://www.westernfrontonline.net/features/article_f71f71d4-1d51-11e2-a6bb-001a4bcf6878.html
It discusses "unconventional" ways some students have made money to make ends meet. One of those methods is... drawing porn on Fur Affinity...
Drawing porn
Mitchell Abston, a Western junior, sits down to his computer and logs on to a website he is almost too embarrassed to admit he is a part of.
“It’s a really stupid website,” Abston said.
He opens his ‘Notes’ page on the site and browses through the different artwork requests: a dragon devouring a little person, a man with female genitalia in a scandalous position and a scantily clad human with animal features. Smirking to himself at the absurdity of the requests, he opens up his Japanese design software and gets to work creating X-rated images for his clients.
“You really have to have no respect whatsoever to do this,” Abston said.
The website, Fur Affinity, is an online gallery for fans of anthropomorphic art, a fetish involving fictional human characters with animal-like features. People interested in it are often referred to as “furries.” The website hosts the largest “furry” community with more than 750,000 users, according to Fur Affinity’s Twitter. Users are encouraged to post their artwork on the site, and individuals can request artists to do commissions.
Abston is one of those artists.
He said he has casually drawn fan art for video games before, and started doing commissions when his friend got involved in the site and told him about the potential to earn extra cash.
Abston was skeptical that he could get business with his limited drawing abilities.
“Who in their right mind would pay me for my crappy drawings?” Abston said.
He took a chance and had his first commissioned piece posted on the website last summer. Within one week, his 15-slot request list was full and people were backlogging him for art.
“This is something specific to this fandom. You don’t see this in any other fetish,” Abston said. “People get so embroiled in this lifestyle and they need more and more images.”
Abston said he charges $10 for a line drawing and $20 for a full-color piece, which is cheap compared to other artists on the site. The most expensive piece he saw was $400.
While Abston doesn’t consider himself a part of the furry community, he finds the financial incentive keeps him coming back.
“I am not attracted to it whatsoever," Abston said. " I just do it for the money”
Sometimes people on the site request drawings an artist is uncomfortable with. Abston charges a 'Fetish Charge' if a request is out of his comfort zone. Most of the time the $10 increase in price makes the requester tame their inquiry.
Abston’s full course load keeps him busy late at night and he finds drawing porn is an easy way to make money that works with his schedule. Drawing is Abston’s only current form of income and he uses the extra cash for spending money. Instead of playing video games in his free time, he will sit down and work on a piece. Abston does an average of one to two pieces a week, each one takes an average of 3-5 hours. He started last summer, Abston has made more than $200.
While he thinks most people on the site are too peculiar for his taste, he enjoys stepping into strangers’ worlds.
“It’s like a window looking into people’s weirdest desires,” Abston said.
