Why do you have to be 18?  a lifestyle choice is a lifestyle choice.  Sure you may have to wait on some bonus things like going to a big fur meet, etc...  But I consider you as much as a furry as I do everyone else here!

What's your side of the story?  I'd be glad to be something of a help.  :3

Yea you could be a furry at any age.  It's not restricted to 18 being the entry age.

Exactly! I sadly know a 10 year old roadside Christian who is a Furry and by roadside I mean those people who preach in the street.

Anyone can be a furry.  I use to know a parent who was raising there child as a furry ever sense they where born.  All you have to do is set up your fursona or furry charactor and have some fun.  also, welcome to the forums.  ;)

If you want to hear a great song about furries, check out The furry song by kurrel the raven...or click this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxFvV5PXK7A (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxFvV5PXK7A)  :)

but those arent furries....the CSI episode is based on a stereotype that circulates the internet,in real life and my annoying friends head.I mean in general you can do whatever you want, just make sure u know what your signing up for (in a respect) .

I'm 13 also and I've been a furry for a while. The only thing you have to be 18 for is some conventions and sites.
To be a furry just make a fursona, and that's it!
You can also do some stuff like RP, wear fursuits, and come on forums like these just for more interaction with other furries.

Web sites yes, depending on what it is. Though most art sites will allow you to join with parents permission and a filter block. Conventions however, unless it's for specialized ones, you just need a parent or guardian with you. This covers the con's butts if you get hurt, do damage or have to be hospitalized.

If you like furries and you want to be a furry... You already are a furry. >.>

Furries are people who are a fan of anthropomorphic (animal/human) characters. Most furries come up with an anthropomorphic representation of themselves ("fursona"), but even that's not actually required.

what are the other reasons you want to be a furry? :?
Title: Re: I am 13 and want to become a furry
Post by: ___ on June 18, 2010, 08:04:14 PM
I would like to ask what the other reasons are, but it would make me seem nosy. XD
But yea, being furry can be either just a hobby (Drawing, RP, writing stories) or more like a lifestyle choice.
So if you conider youself a fur, you're already one. And you don't even have to do anything like that. You just have to like anthro characters.

Actually I've seen like every episode of CSI there ever was because that's all I have to do all day is watch tv.  And I don't recall an episode of Miami with furries.  There was one in the original CSI and there are a couple episodes in New York that feature Second Life,  But as for the Furry episode of CSI,  It wasn't created to try and explain what exactly a furry is, it was created to entertain people.  If the writers had actually wanted to create an episode on what a true furry is I'm almost positive they could do so perfectly.

If you don't do the art very much and you want to change it you could also ask for a request in the request section.
