A very important question for all the Reptiles around here.

Furry Reddit - Mon 6 Jul 2015 - 15:19

Would any of you be interested in this wonderful device I've invented that could significantly improve your hearing?

If any of you reptiles out there find yourselves saying things like "wha?" and "Huh" quite often,

Then I've got just the thing for you.

With the use of this amazing invention that I've called. "External Auditory Redirectional Surfaces". or "E.A.R.S."

You simply need to affix them to your head and let them conduct sound waves directly toward your Tympanic Membranes with MUCH more efficiency.

No longer do you need to feel like the Odd-lizard-out at social gatherings with all your endothermic and four-chambered-heart Friends.

Be aware of all that is being said around you with the wonderful new E.A.R.S. Only $299.99

I take Cash, Credit Card or Paypal.

Fursuiting at non-furry conventions?

Furry Reddit - Mon 6 Jul 2015 - 14:49

I was at Anime Expo this past weekend with some friends and noticed about 10-or-so or fursuiters in the hour that I spent walking around. What is your opinion on fursuiting at non-furry conventions? Do you think it is a good/bad idea and for what reasons?

The Seven—er, Three—Year Itch

Ask Papabear - Mon 6 Jul 2015 - 12:29
Hey Papabear!

So glad to see your advice column is going on strong! I previously wrote to you in 2013 about my cheating boyfriend and him about being more attracted to men then women. (http://www.askpapabear.com/letters/hes-bi-shes-straight-can-they-make-it-work)

I have an question and a update kind of lol.

Insane and I are fine. We will be 3 years together in July! And we got over that previous incident and came to terms with the event. We grew! IT'S FANTASTIC! We are working on getting a apartment and a car. Which is great!

But here is my question. We are getting to that point of "Brick Love Wall" Syndrome as I like to call it. Is it normal to feel like the relationship is boring/In a routine/No spice? I love him and still have the desire to be with him. 

It may be just us being comfortable or something.

I wanna feel the honeymoon stage again but I know that can't happen because people fall in love in stages. We are in that "We love each other but it's not honeymoon." stage. (Lack for a better term.)

Any advice would be lovely.

Thank you~!

Dear Jaded,

Oh, yes, I recall you very well and am glad things are going better with your mate! As for your current challenge, it’s not unusual at all for couples to get a bit bored with their sex life after a few years (there’s a classic movie about this starring Marilyn Monroe—with her famous street vent pose—called The Seven Year Itch you might enjoy watching). In your 2013 letter to me, I advised you to spice up your love life a little. Have you tried that?

Spicing up your love life means to try different things other than the same ol’ same ol’ in the bedroom. One thing you can do is try different locations. Other rooms in the house, perhaps outside (if you have a private yard), or, even better, a romantic getaway (although that’s less practical for regular sex, it can be a nice change of pace).

You can try role-play fantasies, experiment with toys (e.g. from Bad Dragon), etc. The important thing is to break out of old habits and do something different.

That’s just the sex part, of course. Forgive me if I assumed that was what you meant, at first. There is also “everything else” about life that can put a damper on that honeymoon feeling. You have to work, pay bills, wash the laundry, clean the house, etc. etc. When you’re on a honeymoon, none of the day-to-day stuff matters, and you can idealize your love and spend all your time having fun.

While it’s impractical to do that now, you need to set aside time for yourselves and get away from the distractions of life. Take one day a week (or at least one afternoon) and make it “Us Time.” It doesn’t really matter what you do during Us Time, just as long as you do it together, but one thing I would strongly suggest—toss away the cell phones and any other distracting electronic devices. This is time for YOU, not answering text messages.

In addition to the weekly Us Time, also take one day a month for what you might call Mega-Us Time, which is a special day when you do something really fun, like go to an amusement park or a camping trip or some other fun excursion. Heck, you live in Vegas. If you haven’t done it before, go see a concert, or see the jousting show at the Excalibur Hotel. If the budget is a problem, get yourself a picnic basket and find a secluded spot for a lovely meal, watch a sunset, and cuddle.

There are dozens of things you can do cheaply and romantically. Here’s a site that lists a bunch http://onecentatatime.com/101-frugal-and-romantic-ideas-for-anniversary/ and you can easily do some research on the Web for more.

Next time you feel like you’re getting into a routine, make a little effort to shake things up again to bring back that honeymoon feeling.

Wishing You Continued Love,

Papabear

Consequences of drawing NSFW Furry Art

Furry Reddit - Mon 6 Jul 2015 - 10:01

Hey there!

I'm getting more serious about drawing, and it's got me thinking about the consequences of doing adult art. What are the short and long term consequences of doing adult oriented art [in regards to presence and reputation in the community]? What sort of stigmas are there [in regards to the community]? I by no means intend to be a "Yiff artist", however I'll likely do adult stuff from time to time. Would I alienate a significant number of people, or myself, by doing adult art? Should I have an alt-account for adult stuff?

I've just never put much thought into it, and it's got me wondering now.

Edit: Updated, clarified

Taking a little break from /r/furry...

Furry Reddit - Mon 6 Jul 2015 - 09:22

So yeah, you probably don't know me and/or don't care so feel free to just downvote and move along.

I'm going through a particularly bad wave of feeling completely depressed right now and it's best I avoid the risk of bringing down the positive vibe that this sub has. I have no idea how long I'll be gone for. It would be nice if it was just a day or two.

I hope I do come back.

Love you all! And keep smiling!

San Francisco Pride, gay marriage, and historic happenings in Furry Mecca.

Dogpatch Press - Mon 6 Jul 2015 - 08:06
Gay marriage just became legal across the USA.  Even if you have no plan to get one, it’s a big deal.  People of a few generations ago thought we’d have flying cars before this happened.  The writer of “Furry Force” says: In San Francisco, the news hit right at “gay christmas”.  The city was getting ready […]
