A Toast to the Free --- by WhiteMantis
Furries that currently attend a University or Collage, what school do you go to and what's your major?
Just as the title asks, what collage do you attend and what major are you pursuing?

Depression
Hello /r/furry ,
It's time to discuss something serious: Depression.
I'm sure we've all encountered someone who is depressed but weren't sure what to do.
This is how I feel. I myself am not depressed, but a few of my colleagues on various sites are. I take posts depicting (real) self-harm or tweets about suicide very seriously. I want to intervene, I want to say something, but I'm afraid I'll make it worse for the other person. The two times I've attempted to speak to people who are depressed seemed futile. Conversations end with "You wouldn't understand" or just my own replies. I really want to be a good friend and help these people, but sometimes I get pushed away and they tell me they have no friends.
What should I do when I encounter someone who is depressed?

Columbus
I've noticed there isn't a meet-up group or anything that I've found in Columbus. Does anyone know of one or am i just looking over one?

How social is your fursona compared to yourself?
I found myself wondering this after a couple conversations with some folks. My fursona is actually a great deal quieter than I am, but pretty much everyone I've talked to has stated that there's at least a noticeable difference. Interested in other people's stances on this!

Popular reputation
Fairly recently, I told my friend that I'm a furry. He was super cool about it (that's the kind of person he is), and something he said stuck out. "I don't understand why you furries get such a bad rap." And you know, I don't really understand why, either. I know that some people don't like it because of the misconception about the fandom being all about sex and stuff like that, but how did that misconception (and all the others) come into place? Sure, there's popular media that portrays it this way (CSI comes to mind), but again, why? Why did they sexualize this fandom and not some other? What do you guys think?

What is this???
So now and again, I see people getting the fandom confused for a sexuality.
I'd firstly just like to clear this up, although most of you already know, just for newfurs.
Being a furry isn't a sexuality in any way. It's just a fandom! Just like the Undertale fandom or the Star Trek fandom.
Rule 34 of the Internet (if it exists, there's porn of it) applies to pretty much all fandoms (e.g. family guy porn - yes this exists), including the furry fandom. The fandom calls this yiff, of course, and it has become a thing that about half the fandom like and half don't.
But it's just a hobby/interest! It's not a sexuality! :~)
Also for the rest of you, what situations relating to this topic have you witnessed/been part of?
