Looking for opinions

Furry Reddit - Tue 22 May 2012 - 21:48

I've been a furry for a couple years now, and none of my friends know that I am. Some of them are anti-furry because the only furies in our school are pretty weird. Even if they were indifferent though I still don't really know if I would tell them though because I don't really see the point. So basically what I'm asking is should I tell them I'm a furry, and deal with explaining to them that not all of us are weird, or should I just keep it to myself. Thanks

Edit: After reading everyone's comments I have decided to go with the majority, and not bother with telling them. Thanks again everyone.

Furry Reddit - Tue 22 May 2012 - 20:30

Want to unwind and doodle - taking several small sketch requests. I will not be drawing complex fursonas or very specific fetishes, just some stuff that is fun and cute! For now let's say G-PG13. [Regular nudity is okay]

If you want to see what my art looks like check out my gallery: http://www.furaffinity.net/user/tsareia/

UPDATE (10:58 PST) - First one down, then got called to a fancy surprise dinner with my boyfriend and our mutual friends! Will keep posting on my tumblr and link here I unfortunately cannot draw every request :P Stay tuned though. HuckleZin's classy character - http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4gou5dE2x1r4b4jso1_1280.png

UPDATE (12:09 PST) Second set up - 4 headshots. Maybe come back later, but I am pretty tired :P Thanks for the suggestions!

Got a little assignment for you guys...

Furry Reddit - Tue 22 May 2012 - 20:13

I had been introduced to the furry fandom like anyone else born in the '90s--cartoons. But it wasn't until I began reading the webcomic "A Doemain of Our Own" that it really clicked what "furry" was. I had always wanted to create a webcomic, and I found myself imitating the style of the comic with my own characters--starring me anf my friends as anthro animals. I obsessed over the idea of a webcomic for almost a year, until a friend just bluntly asked me, "are you a furry?". I had not actually applied the term to myself until then, but it made sense and has ever since. Unfortunately, I do not remember the exact day, but I know it was in the srping of 2009.

At first, my parents were okay with my art, but then my dad just out of the blue said there was something we didn't like about it. He never elaborated, but I haven't brought it up with him since. My friends accept it as a part of my randomness, and my boyfriend is pro-neutral. He likes the fursona I've made for him and would wear a fursuit with me (if we had the monies lol), and thinks the squeaks I do are adorable.

Nowadays, I feel more feral than anthro as I have played the game "FeralHeart" quite a bit.

So, here it is guys! My assignment to you is this: Tell about yourself on the following subjects:

1) How you were introduced to the fandom

2) The moment you realized you are a furry

3) How your friends/family responded

4) What you're doing nowadays. (It's okay if you don't get around to all four points)

Ask Papabear: Sometimes You Have to Lie

Furry News Network - Tue 22 May 2012 - 19:20
Hey papa bear. My parents are both the kind of people that happen to hate the furry fandom, and I am and have been a furry since before I even knew what a furry was, let alone about the fandom. Every time they find anything even remotely furry related, renamon wallpapers, pokemon wallpapers, what have [...]

LA - Meetup awkwardness / Seeking down to earth friends

Furry Reddit - Tue 22 May 2012 - 19:04

I'm 26, and I've been living in LA for about 3 years now. I decided to try my luck with a reddit post after much awkwardness from meetups. I'm looking for stable, down-to-earth types to hang out with; the kind that don't wear tails in public. I don't disapprove of suits, costumes, or purring aloud, but I do believe in social norms when casually hanging out in public. Is there anyone else out there who feels the same way?

Leaked Screenshots of Beyond Good & Evil 2?

Gaming Furever - Furry Game News - Tue 22 May 2012 - 16:56

bge2-12

It's been a long time since we've heard anything about the on-hold title, Beyond Good & Evil 2. Last we heard, the game was being put on hiatus until the next generation of consoles was going to be released.

 

A few screenshots of what looks to be Beyond Good & Evil 2 have been published by All Games Beta. No confirmation on if these are the real thing, but they sure look convincing!

At the end of Beauty & The Beast (1991)...

Furry Reddit - Tue 22 May 2012 - 13:47

...did anyone else wish that Belle would have turned into a beast as well?

Because I honestly thought it would be more romantic. Such a furry moment...

Non-furry here. Let me tell you what the rest of the internet thinks of you.

Furry Reddit - Tue 22 May 2012 - 09:36

(Throwawayaccount) Please! Hear me out on this one first before making assumptions!

You are not as hated as some of you may think. Out of all my friends who are internet savvy enough to know what a furry is (i'd say about 10 people), they all say the same. "I am indiffrent about them" or "I don't really care much about that" is a common answer. I have yet to meet a hater.

You shouldn't listen to haters or get mad just because of some trolls who are just fishing for a reaction on the internet. In fact you shouldn't listen at all to people who may hate what you like. Do what you like if it makes you feel good and it doesn't hurt anyone.

Then why do you see so much hate on the internet? Ask yourselves this the next time, who are most likely to comment? People who honestly couldn't care if you are furry or not and are being indifferent, or people who actively hate or just want to see drama?

I will however not respect people who say "I am a furry and if you got a problem with it then fuck you too" but that goes for anyone, just replace the word furry with something else. "Fursecution?" There never was any.

I felt like telling you how it really is since most people wouldn't waste any time telling other that they don't really care much. And you know that something is wrong if you got a whole fandom thinking everyone hates them.

You stay cool, guys. Do your thing.

P.S Not trying to whore myself out but feel free to post this on your DA journal, FA account or whatevs. There has clearly been some misunderstanding.

Did you think first that i was going to post hate in this thread? See. We need to change that.

EDIT: clarification

Is feral animals furry?

Furry Reddit - Tue 22 May 2012 - 09:23

Feel free to down vote this post as much as you like for I don't use reddit, but is wolves on all fours (animal sona's) count as being furry? I have been furry for 2 years and find that most stereotypical furry's are Anthro (two legged animals) and I would just like to know. :3

MTV may be looking for furries again

Furries In The Media - Tue 22 May 2012 - 04:44
A Youtubber by the name of "berrymuch" sent me the following message in a Youtube PM. If it is for real, this is not good news. We all know how MTV has portrayed furries in the past.



Hi there,

MTV CASTING CALL: "TRUE LIFE: I'M A FURRY!"

MTV and Emmy award-winning producers are now CASTING NATIONWIDE for FURRIES for our new documentary-style series, "TRUE LIFE: I'M A FURRY!" This show is a real "slice-of life" inside look into a misunderstood world. We want to show the positive aspects of the lifestyle (fursuiting, going to conventions, making friends, finding your own style, etc.) as well as the adversity you face. This straight-forward documentary-style show will let you educate our viewers and TELL THE WORLD YOUR OWN TRUE STORY!

• Do you dress up in a Fur Suit and have a Fursona?
• Did you go Fursuiting or meet-up with others?
• Are you tired of people treating you differently because you're a Furry?
• Do you wish everyone would finally understand what being Furry is really about?

Whether your friends and family know about your Fursona, this is your opportunity to show the world what being a Furry really means.
