I don't know where I fall in the fandom, really. I've been interested in the fandom for a while, started browsing around the community more and more in the last 4 to 6 months or so, and only in the past 2 weeks have I really become somewhat active in the community.

I guess this is sort of a hello post. New furry? Maybe not, maybe so. (By that sentence, I mean I may be an older furry, or I may be considered newer, just to clear up confusion) Kinda depends on your definition. I bet you guys get a lot of these posts, so I'm gonna keep it somewhat short.

I've already made my awkward introduction, so next comes... questions! I have a few:

I see so many furry artists, of all kinds. Fursuiters, digital artists, writers, pen-and-paper artists, on and on the list goes. Do I need to be an artist to be considered a furry, or active in the community?

Also, well, what's with the hate I see on the internet against furries? It doesn't make sense to me.

Anyways, answers would be appreciated. Following questions, comes, well... I don't know! I guess this is where I start the AMA thing I promised in the title. Age, gender, life, (crappy) arts, Ask Me Anything!

EDIT: I was told by the wonderful /u/The_Ninja_Nero that I should probably differentiate myself if I wanted people to ask me things. So, let's see: I think the part about me being a furry is a little obvious, so I'll skip that.

I'm a military brat, meaning I move around the country every 2 years or so (USA, btw)

I'm virtual-schooled, for k-12

I build worlds, massive worlds

I'm going through my second bout of depression in the last 5 years

I have some interesting ideas for creations of mine (some tie into the worldbuilding)

Is this differentiated enough? Maybe a little more :)

I'm taking classes several grades ahead of my age. Honors, even

I know the capitals of most countries in the world off the top of my head

I want a friend

Hey I'm making a new fursona named Akage Morei and I'm hoping to get him popular once he's finished. I have an idea of what I want him to look like an I will be posting it later. In the meantime I do need help developing his personality, quirks, and other things about him....if someone could help me out by questioning me about him over kik that'd be great!

Kik is Furrygreywolf_

Hey Everyone,

I am new to reddit, please bare with me. I heard that reddit is good for finding answers to questions and with helping out people. Some background before my questions and the help I need. I am not sure whether to call myself a furry, I have known about the fandom for...maybe, ten plus years. I really do not remember because my fiance is the one who showed me the fandom (we were friends at the time). I thought it was cool, but I did not know much. That is, until I hit high school and after high school I tried to get into it because it was something that he liked. (Keep in mind this is all when we started dating.)

Anyways, when I started to get involved everything was fine. I met a couple of his friends that were pretty cool, but none myself. Some issues came up that I do not want to describe and I met some more of his friends. However, the other friends I met wanted to get a little too personal with me and they liked my fiance. I have dealt with many issues about people (furry or not) trying to break us up or try to get into his pants and disregard that he is with someone. I never met any real friends on my own and his friends shot me down. Calling me a horrible girlfriend...among other obscenities. I have just seemed to have a horrible experience in the fandom so far and I do not understand why.

I really want to support what my fiance loves and I feel I need help in figuring out what the furry fandom is and what it is really about. My questions are: what is the furry fandom and what is the fandom really about? Why is the artwork always so erotic where ever I look? Are there different types of furries and what are they?

Overall, I just want to understand everything. Please, help me. I have been with my fiance for years...since high school. I want to support this and understand it more. I need another outlook on the fandom than what I seen because I feel that my views may have been ruined by rude people.

Thank you for taking the time to read.

Hello fellow furs!

My friend and I are thinking about attending our first con ever. We are already planning to go and be awesome&awkward together, but I am curious if anyone has been to/plans to go to VancouFur early in the new year? I'm over on the island and since it's so close, I figured I could use it as an excuse to test the con waters.

I don't know many furs in real life, and would be happy to get to know some people before the con starts, so drop me a line! :)
*Note: sorry I don't have any chat programs aside from FB chat, so you can message me on reddit if you want. :)
