Ok more like a general wondering or survey.
I am new to the forum and I have only done anthro work (or any drawings) for about 2-3 weeks now. I've always been attached to animals and didn't really realized how attached I was til recently. Anyway I KNOW I'm a furry now and I just want to know somethings about other furries:
What is the usual age? What are your ages?
How did you choose your fursona?
How did you decide a name?
How far do you take your furryness?
Are any of you college students/alumni? if so what major?
I just would like to know as much as I can. I've always searched for more understanding in all things. I realize I few of these questions are already posted, but I just wanted to know more.

Thanks for the reply and hello. Also I guess I should answer my own questions:
-I'm 20
-I like wolves and dogs, and just chose my favorite aspects of certain breeds
-its latin for icy, which just seems to fit
-nothing but drawing so far
-I'm a physics major
-
Hey, it's good to meet new people! your drawings are great for only 3 weeks of practice, kicks the shit out of anthing I can do.
1. The age can range from people that are in there early teens all the way up to middle-aged adults. I'm 15 though.
2. I choose my favourite animal and changed it up a bit.
3. Well my fursona's last name (Álvares) was my grandmother's last name, I have a bit of Portuguese blood so I show it that way.
And my first name, Alexei? I just like Russian names. :P
4. I draw and look at anthro art, not much further then that. Although some take it as far as fursuiting and going to conventions and stuff.
There are many different ways that people choose to enjoy the fandom but all are accepted.
5. Not yet.

What is the usual age? What are your ages?
- Depends a lot on where you go. We tend to have a younger age group around here (around 16-21 is the average range, I'd guess). There are plenty of older furries out there though, and we do still have some here. I'm 21, myself.
How did you choose your fursona?
- Kinda long story, but I basically chose the animal(s) whose personality/social traits I felt lined up with my own.
How did you decide a name?
- Found the word in a book and liked it. There's more to it than that, but that's the short version.
How far do you take your furryness?
- I participate in this forum, obviously, and I both draw and browse furry art on various art sites. I don't take it much beyond that, though I do occasionally wear a collar. Most people don't understand the meaning of that though, and that's about it. I don't talk about it much in RL.
Are any of you college students/alumni? if so what major?
- I'm close to graduating. I study animation.
-
I forgot to add this but if you have any questions feel free to PM me and I'll try to answer to the best of my ability. :)

welcome to the forums. enjoy your time here

Sorry I'm late but I wanted to have time to write things down and give a proper answer. Welcome!
- What is the usual age? What are your ages?
I just recently turned 20. - How did you choose your fursona?
I've always felt somewhat connected to felines ever since I knew the difference between a cat and a dog. Their gracious movement, the display of intelligence and judgement, their versatile body language and vocal spectre, the personality traits and how cats can be so incredibly devoted and affectionate... It all appealed to and attracted me. So to me it was a natural choice that whatever it was, it had to be feline. Other than that, this one is just a temporary that still fits my personality well until I have built up something more thorough. - How did you decide a name?
The username here is random but I always find it hard with names. I don't know yet, though I am absolutely sure it will not be something classic like "Bloody Fang Tiger" or "Kystal Snowkat". - How far do you take your furryness?
I have a fussy woolen hat that a friend knitted to me years back with cat ears. I've worn it ever since because it's very warm and the fuss lets you shake off all snow or water, leaving it dry. I've also attached ear rings and piercings to the ears, matching my appearance more. I also have gloves and ears made of a furry fabric and I've worn this for Halloween and such. One time I borrowed matching furry moon boots and a tail too so the only thing missing was a furry face. I have a vision of one day owning a full costume, but that's far ahead.
Lastly I tend to act a little... feral at times? - Are any of you college students/alumni? if so what major?
I am studying at a school that does not give you a degree but you can put it on your paper saying you've learned whatever it is you're studying. I've done art and glass, clay, knitting, silver and stone work, things like that.
