Whats it like being a furry?

Furry Reddit - Fri 8 Jan 2016 - 17:25

Probably a stupid question, but i'm curious. I live in a country where just about nobody knows what a furry is or every heard of the fandom. they've heard references to the fandom on certain series (like CSI, tosh.o and Brickleberry just to name a few) but no one knows what it is. i did notice we have a website for SA furries but according to the site's counter the most people it has ever had online was 62 and that was back in 2013. so 62 people out of a population of 53,491,333...

the only indication i have to how furries are treated are from the countless online forums and discussions, like this one for example, and of course television. i have been a secret furry for a couple of years before deciding that i don't want to hide everything furry and i want to commission a fursuit.

So i decided to "test the waters" (so to speak) and to tell my friends that i am a furry. i expected a movie worthy performance of negativity... instead i got a very confused expression followed by "Wtf is a furry" (actual quote)... to this day i have never met another person (in person) who knows what a furry is or about the fandom.

So what's it like being a furry, fursuiting, the convention ect. where the public recognizes it (good or bad) and are we publicly treated as the media portrays or is it just internet bravado stemming from people who like to hide behind their PC monitors?

Giving away my old Intuos3! See inside for deets pls [x-post from /r/furryartschool]

Furry Reddit - Fri 8 Jan 2016 - 11:26

Figured I'd post this here for more visibility. If this isn't okay here, I apologize. Text copied from original post:

Hey guys! I'm trying to clear some space in my apartment, and one of the things I've just held onto for too long is my old Intuos3. I haven't used this bad boy seriously in about 5 years. It's banged up (crack in the clear plastic, pen is taped up, no clue what happened to the mouse) but works last time I checked. It would be good for any of you guys wanting to try out digital art without spending a lot of money.

What's the catch?

There's no catch, really! All I ask is that you not already own a tablet and pay shipping (around $20 for continental US). I am posting this with the intent to send this tablet to someone just starting out with digital media.

I'm posting this here because, well, I want it to go to a good home and try to help somebody out who's just learning. If this post isn't okay in this sub, I apologize.

A Longtime Secret Furry Reveals Himself

Furry Reddit - Fri 8 Jan 2016 - 09:37

Hello, my fellow fuzzbutts. I'm... actually pretty terrible at introducing myself, so I think I'll allow my fursona to do introductions.

"Hello everyone, my name is Tigras, and my human's name is... well... that's not important right now. Long story short, he's basically been a furry since he even really knew that the community was a thing, but was always too shy to actually come out and admit it publically.

As for me? I'm a hybrid of a wolf and fox. (A folf, I guess?) I'm fiercely loyal and protective of my friends, but tend to shy away from strangers. I could say more, but I think I'll open it up for you guys to ask me, or my human, anything you want about us. We'll probably answer just about everything.

OH! And before I forgot, my human mentioned wanting to draw me one day, but doesn't have a lick of talent when it comes to doing so. Any suggestions for places to start?

Anyways, the floor is open to you guys. Also, free floofy hugs upon request! (Edit: Kind of shocked nobody's taking me up on the free floofy hugs, but... oh well.)

Edit2: Oh right, my human also wanted to mention his steam name is "Argus Mercs", in case anybody wants to be friends."
