So this is going to be a long story, so please try to understand where I'm coming from.

Around 8th grade I found out about the furry fandom and instantly fell in love with it; mostly the creativity and the "outside of the norm" attitude it brought to the table. From then 'til now (I'm a senior in high school btw), I held this fandom in a special place in my heart, but my very close friends love to just rip on furries and make fun of how damn weird they are like it's their favorite past-time. All they know about furries is that they just publicly embarrass themselves and fuck in their fursuits (mind you I have about 4 close friends that all act this way). So in order to avoid the inevitable downright critical judgement, verbally and mentally, and to avoid stressful, awkward, and high anxiety attacks, I just go along with them, pretending to be serious about my "radical" views on the fandom they hate. This led me to be dubbed "the guy with the funny ass furfreak videos and stories" in our little group. If they ever find out im actually furry, I'll more than likely have a real bad anxiety attack from the fear of judgement and ridicule they, along with other people, might bring down on me. All I want to know is that how can I overcome this sense of self embarrassment and anxiety and finally let go from what has been building up all these years.

P.S: I know this fandom isn't something to be so damn worried about, and to just stop being a little bitch and tell them, but coming out isn't the main issue; it's mostly revolved around my social fear of "what are they thinking of me" and the overwhelming sense of peer judgement in everyday things I participate in; even as far as drawing a doodle in my notebook or playing my guitar too loudly. Any tips will be greatly appreciated. Thank you all so much!!! love you all :3

Imagine the clogs, too. And imagine how often you'd have to change the filters at swimming pools. Ewww.

I was reading u/BlindArtist post about wearing his furry hoodie and his bravery in doing it. So I want to know whats your favorite thing to wear or want to wear! Doesn't matter what it is (but let's keep it SFW XD)! Summer winter, weather you have it now or plan on getting it!

Here is my hoodie

Me in it

And this really cool Zelda hat I have my eye on

You don't have to show yourself wearing it if you don't feel comfortable. its all up to you :D

Hey, guys! What is the most gun-totin', god fearin', commie-hatin' piece of pure concentrated Jingoistic furry glory that you have ever seen? Post links in the comments.

Edit: I think I forgot to specify that I'm looking for artwork here. However, other 'Merican furries are certainly welcome to brag.

So I accidentally just sent a very explicit gfur album to my mother... Needless to say she isn't taking it well:

"Yeah music ? thanks [my name] Be careful. Beastiality and zoophillia. Totally sick"

I sent to her, "http://imgur.com/a/WlaSc I like this album. Anyway, anything interesting today?"

Imgur link is obviously NSFW.

She thought it was music and opened it. What should I do? Kind of freaking out right now. I'm not really big into the fandom, never suited up or anything, just a bit of a fetish.

Edit: title typo, stupid auto correct.

Edit2: okay, so some more talking (mostly apologizing) seems to be calming things down:

Just me saying hi.

Joining the fandom.

I never really thought I would ever be a furry. I did watch lots of anime though. A neko hear and there never bothered me, but all of those horrible sonic drawings, you know the ones with the misspellings and dicks that took up half of the crayon that was used to scribe them onto there computer screen, from forchan kept me away. (We can't blame all our prejudiced on forchan, just most of it.)

I loved Homestuck though, and had a regretful middle school crush on a certain un-wise savory wizard. I pulled a teen and goggled for moist Eridan pictures. I was waste deep in dirty folders before I realized something.

It was furry.

Not in the most literal sense, but hear I was going all out fan girl for a non-human. The revelation was not so much world shattering, as horizon expanding.

Admittedly I took a long, convoluted, hentai strewn road to get hear, but now hear I am.

What now?

I enjoy the culture hear, as to get hear you need to be open mined, and would like to be involved more. What can I do to contribute?

So some things are getting me down right now and from what I've seen you guys are pretty nice. I'm really not asking for much. I just want someone to listen to what I have to say and then give me advice on how i should try to not let it bother me. Or just general advice on how to get through difficult times in life. Ok, maybe that is a lot. Just PM me or what ever you do on reddit, I don't want to Skype. Sorry if that's an inconvenience for you I understand. Oh and also this is first time posting here and first time everything plz don't hurt me. Edit: Sorry if I didn't talk to you but I cant talk anymore. Thank you to everyone who did though it means a lot and it really helped me. -big hugs to everyone-

Ok so yesterday I got a birthday gift from my sister. She knew I was a fox furry, and that i liked to draw furries, so she sent a little stuffed fox, along with a book of how to draw furries. When my mom saw the book she freaked out, and started accusing me of plushophilia, bestiality, and other furry slurs. I kept telling her that that's not at all what this is about, and she, not convinced, walked away. I really want to show her that not all furries are like that, and that I just really appreciate the art, but i don't think she'll be convinced. i know that this is probably the 500th post like this here but, help?

Such as "Novelty Antler Christmas Lights" , "Tail Cosies" or even "Tail Extensions".

And what products would your fursona buy?

You may even want to come up with services as well :D

Edit: Thank you all for the awesome and creative replies! :D
