Suiting at Work Part 2: The New Suit!
Looking for a video that was posted on here
The video could be described as offensive to use, but I found it pretty funny.
The title (of the post, idk what the video was called) was something along the lines of: How people see furries vs how furries see themselves.
It had a guy walking along a mountain path and he sees this dancing chick wearing ears and a tail.
Anyone know where I can find this? My google-fu is letting me down.

UnFurled: Episode 48 – Stuff and Things
I thought this needed some color, how did I do?
Ear Pleasure once again
Once again Foxamoore and Alectorfencer do a great celeb for the “Myre” comic giving pleasure to our ears. Titled “Journey’s Dawn” and like all the other songs they have done this is just as amazing. If you remember the last Foxamoore I posted was celeb with Colson in a music video which you can check here! Here is the original post.
drawing on lots of drugs!!! its fun...
My awesome dog tags came a few days ago.

Just wondering what artists you guys like to follow. Could be on the fur of affinity, the deviants art. or some indie website that gets visited by only you and some man from Nepal.
A couple that stood out for me:

Animal House: Wearing fursuit to find love
Anime vs. Furry Sex
Why is it that furries seem to get flack for stuff that anime has, while anime seems to get a pass?
I've been persecuted a lot online for being a furry on the basis of it being adult orientated, when anime has the same stuff. Why do people persecute us furries for stuff what other fandoms have?

Dear Foxyfluf,
I’ll bet you’re familiar with Rule 34: if it exists, there is porn for it. As you pointed out, there is Anime porn. There is also Star Trek porn, Disney porn, Lord of the Rings porn, etc. etc. As the song goes on the stage musical Avenue Q, the Internet is for porn! Apparently so. But not even just the Internet. Anime porn is available in full-length movie form far and above anything available in the way of furporn. Some of the anime stuff is quite shocking, too, involving... er, “Death by Snoo Snoo,” as they say on Futurama, as well as disturbing scenes from Hell. (Yeah, Papabear has seen it).
Which brings us back to your question: If anime has the same stuff as things you see on furry sites, why do we furs get all the flack?
Shocking revelation alert! Papabear has a theory :-P. The furry community does not produce their material through major movie studios or other corporations. We are a purely amateur-run art, flash, and, sometimes, filmmaking society of people. This makes it easier for people outside the fandom to attack us, just like a wolf pack attacking a weak, young bison. We have no big bucks behind us to fight back (this might change in the future, but in the meantime it holds true).
Another reason for this persecution is that, frankly, furporn is too easy to find online. You might note that anime porn is often placed in adults-only areas where a visitor has to verify his or her age or, even more, pay for a subscription to the adult materials inside. On the other hand, if you go to FurAffinity.net, e621.net, or even sofurry.com, you can easily access free porn. If Papabear had any say in the matter, he would recommend to these and other sites that they set up an adults only section. I believe this could go a long way toward dispelling the impression that furries are all about porn.
Thirdly, furries have simply gotten more bad press than anime or other types of specialized porn. This is a subject that has been addressed in this and other furry sites many times, so Papabear feels no need to elaborate upon it.
I hope this answers your question, Foxyfluf!
And, as always, Papabear welcomes comments on this topic and encourages his readers to present their thoughts and theories. I’m sure some of you have unique insights on this.
Hugs,
Papabear
Kemonomimi
I'm not sure what to consider myself, or what it takes to "properly" be a member of the furry world. I've enjoyed kemonomimi (anime-styled humans with animal ears and/or tails) for a long time. I've enjoyed furry art from time to time if I find the style particularly to my liking.
I also realized tonight that I actually feel somewhat incomplete without a tail. If I had the money, and the implant/prosthetic technology were available, I'd get one. No question. Yet I have no fursona I am aware of. I don't know what animal I would be, or how I would identify within the furry world. Is tailed human an option?
Am I a furry? Should I try to find an animal to identify with? What would you recommend? Thank you for your help and for considering my question.

Dear Fur-curious,
Good question, and thank you for it! There seems to be an ongoing debate among furries as to what “qualifies” people to be furry. Unfortunately, some furries have set themselves up as judges of the community as a whole, pronouncing sentences on people and declaring some as furry worthy and some as not. Nothing could be more absurd.
There is only one qualification for being a furry: do you like art, stories, etc. that involve anthropomorphic characters? If the answer is “Yes,” then you’re a furry.
Now, I can see the confusion here. When one mentions “anthropomorphic animal,” one usually thinks of a character that displays mostly animalistic features—fur, muzzle, tail, paws, etc.—while just having a few human characteristics, such as the ability to speak a human language, walk upright, and so on.
Kemonomimi characters are much more human than animal, usually sporting only furry ears, maybe a tail, maybe whiskers, but they definitely appear very human. However, there is still a very definite blending of animal and human features in kemonomimi, and, therefore, in Papabear’s mind it falls into the furry world. It is definitely a subset of furry, but it is still furry.
Now, bear in mind that Papabear is not the spokesfur for the community and my opinions have no weight. I’m sure there may be those who disagree with me and that is their right. But, again, if you ask this ol’ bear, you are a furry who is interested in kemonomimi.
One last note: Fur-curious, do not let other people try and define who you are. Only YOU can do that. If trolls and popufurs get on your case and say you are not a furry, that is their opinion, but if in your heart you are a furry, then you are a furry. If they give you more grief, you can respond like this Frenchman: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-OzIMHowtL8.
Bear Hugs!
