What's your top 3 favorite things about being a furry? :P
-
Well...
3. I love the creative expression found in a lot of fursonas and character's people design and come up with. It makes me want to develop a cartoon series with a lot of them xD my love for animation has a lot to do with my appeal for the fandom to begin with.
2. You can be as weird as you want and immortalizes a sense of playful activity normally seen as being childish or immature.
1. I get to pretend to be something I'm not and can live vicariously through a fictional lifestyle I've created based off a real one. Things in real life become irrelevant for a short time while I visit a more colorful and interactive world full of individuals who like doing the same.
I hope that didn't come off strange but it's the truth. Real life isn't fun.

1. Fursuiting! There's so many cute characters and concepts and aaaa I love to see them come to life!
2. The fact that furry is becoming less about "weird people in animal costumes" and is becoming more art and young people centered. While it used to be kinda creepy and filled with weirdos, the fact that teenagers are joining the fandom are pushing all that out and making it more like an alternative style. tl;dr: furries are becoming a mainstream alternative style and that's really cool!
3. Finding other people as passionate as me about issues, making friends, and falling in love. I met my fiancee at a con and my girlfriend on a forum like this and it's been amazing. <3
-
All of the free hugs and cookies.
Also, fun people...
And nice art.
Plus there's just so much fluffiness going around :3
-
The hugs, noms, cuddles, loves and craziness!
-
Nice folx, nice art, actually having nails and teeth that can function. I sometimes have to open things as simple as juiceboxes for my Human friends.
-
The art. The people put so much effort into making these anthromorphic animals and the completed result is beautiful.
Socialization. I found that my fellow furs are actually much more accepting and social than I once thought :)
All the platonic affection and hugs! :)
-
Where to began...
- Furries like to cuddle
- We make great friends
- The best support group ever
- Having a tail is AWESOME
- The most important: Having the best boyfriend in the world, who is also a furry!!
-
1. Hugs n' cuddles!
2. Taking a break from your real self and being something different for a change
3. The many unique and creative minds!
-
Hmmm... favorite things?
Well I'm always telling others about how kind, loving, and cuddly ferries are so that's gotta be number one. I love all the hugs and soft fur and being open!
I can express my... individuality, uniqueness, and weird side in this community unlike any other. People here support that instead of discriminate against it!
And a third... well that's the support. The will to keep going, because being a furry in today's world is really really hard and that put on top of life alone makes it almost impossible, however the support by this community is overwhelming and I'm not even known by more then 3 furries. No other fan dom out there makes each and every member feel special and loved in this way.

My favorite thing is this place has brought me from a crumpled emotionless person.
To a fabulous bubbly guy.
Also, an excuse to wear a green and yellow tail!

I have to say that the fandom is so much more to me then I ewver thought possible. I already posted saying the same three things as so many others, but its even mroe then that. This fandom is its own
club group community family culture. I have learned so much from this fandom, from simple things such as what voodoo really is, to more in depth things such as a love to all sexualities and genders. I have learned to see people in a new way and I no longer have quite the biased view that I had only a year ago. The fandom has taught me a lesson so big, so important, I don't know who I would be without it. The fandom taught me how to live. This community has changed who I am and how I live my life. I am more loving, more accepting, learn to see peop-le in another way and express who I really am. I am accepted as me and have learned that its not bad to be who I am. I have gained confidence and a will to live, and I hope to be a part of this fandom for all my life, attending cons- maybe being an artist or writer for the fandom.
This fandom is its own culture. Not influenced by the media, against it. Not discriminating against people but giving them a home, and not aiming to be accepted, but aiming to be different. unique. individuals. To be ourselves.

1. I really like the no requirement community, Like how people are not thought of any less furry just because they might not have a fursuit or cant go to the conventions.
2. The creativity that goes into the characters to really bring them to life just blows me away
3. For lack of better words, The stubborn pride. Everywhere I go online I find fellow flurries and they are just so proud to be who they are and don't care what other people say
