Show me some love if you're from beneath the mason dixon line.
Also, are there any challenges you've faced since you have been here?
-
I'm a southern fur. Thankfully, I haven't had too many problems... But then again, I don't get out too much. >_>
-
Mason Dixon line has nothing on me. Arkansan Fur, and moderately proud of it. I generally never have problems, at least at school. Everyone is either used to it, or has to deal with it. In public, it's okay too. No one really cares here, or at least they don't comment on it.

NC.......ugggh it sucks here
-
I have some family in NC, it doesnt seem too bad as long as youre the earthy type. :)
-
Haha right here, born and raised in Georgia. :)

Depends on what part. Some of the more urban areas are "progressive" or whatever. But out in the rural areas, it's pretty bad. NC here as well, of course.

Graal, that avatar. :P
Everyone in my home town is okay with it because of my constant defense. Fort Smith is a different story, but none that are reasonable people care.

NC/GA/TN bored here ... I can walk to 3 different states easily :P its kinda cool ... except for the fact that its a hick town >w> filled with Religo-Nazis (aka very religious people), KKK (technically that's one town over but oh well), Old retired people, anddddd Rednecks....

Haha, thanks. I'll get a custom avvie, eventually. Until then, I'll just leave it as Torahiko because he's effin' gorgeous.
As for the whole acceptance thing, the south sucks for everyone, really, so it's all good. I just remember a lot of people are hiding similar parts of themselves and I'm glad I have the courage to be who I am and be happy being that. I recommend ya'll remember the same thing if you ever feel down about it :D

Oh no, I am not corageous....I simply don't care what they think they can kiss my gay furry butt, I'm open in both those things in rural NC but they don't bother me because they know it won't bother me
-
Oddly enough where I live there are some furs but since I don't get out much I don't really get to hang out with them. I have seen some suiters and they seem well received most of the time.
-
Plenty of open furs here in Florida. I met Someone at the mall actually the other day wearing a rave tail and some ears just walking through the mall.
-
People do that here too, I've never had the opportunity to actually greet them though.
-
you should. Its good experience. Also theres fur meets for just jax furs every week here. ._. just found that out
-
Last time I saw a fellow fur was at Oklacon. T.T This year my mate is coming down from Canada to go with me, should be fun. :)

VA newbie fur here! I know around here there are a lot of bigots and ignorant people but at the same time there are some of the most supportive and open minded people I've ever met -- and the funny thing is it's the "liberals" who are close minded and bigoted while the "conservatives" are really open minded.

Welcome to TFF. Enjoy your time here. :)
