title says all
I'd just be generic and say that I love the community, it's so accepting and friendly.
that and drawing anthro art, that's fun.
(I'm not entirely sure if this threads already been created so rip me if it has)
-
Doesn't matter if it has. Everyone is super nice and accepting. They all gave me the courage to just be what I am and the hell with everyone else. ~^.^~ Everyone here is amazing.
-
^^ I second this. I've just been super excited about this forum and spamming literally everything, but everyone I've met is great and amazing! Being in the fandom is letting me wear a 'mascot costume' and be silly, and it gives me an excuse to draw humanoid animals instead of humans (which I cannot draw to save my life)
-
Yea, I like how I can just be myself and not be judged nearly as much. I have a few... really divergent beliefs and likes, and I am glad that I am not immediately ostracized for it.
-
Ooh I like the role playing ^_^ and I just feel right. A lot happier than I used to be.
-
I like how I can share my interest with anthro animals with others, and everyone is really nice in this fandom.
-
Probably the fact that the furry community is one of the most universally accepting groups that I have ever been a part of, which is totally awesome. It is also really great for creativity with regards to writing and art. That was two things. Oh well, consider it a tie.
-
I like the very nice and acepting people in this community. :3
-
I feel like I can express my religion freely because of how close it is to animals and nature.
I also like the art, but in a mature way, haha. Not ashamed of it.
-
Able to be part of something without being judged. But it's not like I would care.
I really love the Art. (All types.)
Roleplaying is fun to do.
Would love to go to cons to meet people.
This forum seems great as well. It really is great, along with the mods.
-
Oh theres so many things ^_^ Everyone is so accepting, everyone is so nice. Everyone's fursona is so awesome/cool/adorable ^_^ I also love the RP. Everything is so much fun!
-
Lots of things.
Main one that comes to mind is having fun and making others smile while sharing the similar opinions. Everyone (I met so far) here very accepting and nice
-
To me, furries are like the step above normal trans-Humanists! In theory, I guess.
-
The fandom really lets you be you. I feel a lot more comfortable with myself and a lot happier with my life. Especially now that when I told my friends, their response was "Um. Yeah, we know. It was obvious." So that acceptance and the look of Are you insane, of course you are. How did you not see that? was both priceless and very uplifting.
Plus, I look -good- with a tail and ears. :P
-
i like how supportive the fandom is, if i put up something i drew or made and it looked a bit rubbish it wouldn't be met with a barrage of hate comments but some compliments and constructive criticism.
i also like how no one really complains when i occasionally spell something wrong ^_^ (although spell checks a lot better now which helps loads)
-
My favorite is just about everything. In other words I can't decide, so I'll just list stuff.
I found the fandom because one day I randomly searched YouTube for videos about furries. First one I watched was by Majira Strawberry, and I instantly felt an incredible peace, joy, happiness, and sense of ... I'm not sure what to call it. Stronger then belonging, but that is the closest I can get. I had been going through a rough period, and I truly believe that it was God bringing me here, I hadn't even heard of furries before.
Man, that was only five weeks ago. I have found so much in that time. People, music, stories, videos, a new purpose, interests. Heck, the fandom is what got me into using the Internet for more then college and news. I have discovered more about people in this time period then... dare I say my life? I have found qualities that I never knew existed in me. I have realized that people that are total opposites can coexist. I have realized life is so far from what it seems. I have become a far better person. I have something besides my studies and surviving each day to look forward to. I have found that I can be a decent human. I have been accepted. I have laughed, cried, and been more excited then I have been in... ever? I see light, and I feel the light. I can think for myself. I have a refuge that I can go to, even though I have to hide it. I'm home.
-
I love the community! Everyone's so accepting, friendly and encouraging here and I've made a few good friends because of it :)
I also really like the art, it's fun to draw ^_^
-
The community, the art, and the outfits. I'm finishing up my partial by putting together some paw gloves.
-
Every one I have come across is so awesome and nice I haven't met a bad person yet. I also like everyone's art work and stories. You guys are the best! :)
-
First and for all: we all like the interesting art that can be found. I am no exception.
But what I mostly like are how the people of this community are: they are really nice and they don't care about what and who you are
just as long you are a nice guy and like to have fun.
-
That is true Bricket, it's what I discovered as well, and why I seem to keep coming back. It's fun having a good time with other furs.
-
I will have to say the community. When i first called myself a furry i thought i would never tell anyone but the nice friendly people i met here gave me the confidence to tell a few of my friends
-
For the very small duration of time that I have spent associating, defending, and appreciating the furry fandom, I have learned one thing: not every fandom is going to ridicule you for not being as skilled at writing, as talented at art, or as persistent according to their standards. Being grouped in with the furry fandom is something a lot of people have already made fun of me for, but it makes me feel good to be part of a community that is open to diverse and different ideas, all connected back to one concept; anthropomorphic animals.
-
Art, and the general creativity.
In fandoms based off of movies, books, or games, your characters are always going to revolve around the story in some way. Here, furries are just an art style so you can do pretty much whatever you want with them.
-
I like the suiting the most~ it's super fun (except when a kid starts yanking your tail) most kids are pretty good though
-
The art and the community. Honestly, you guys are a lot friendlier and accepting than many bronies (sorry for the comparison, but I used to be a member of that fandom and I didn't really like the community that much), and I love that.
-
For me, my favorite things are:
You can make friends very easily, also you have lots of fun posting, roleplaying (though I'm literally a noob at roleplaying, since I have never done this) :( and chatting with others.
-
Has to be the people for me! i always feel comfortable and welcome :) you furs are the best :*
-
So far, I feel like I can just be myself and it's ok! LOVE the art, I'd like to get to know more people that have animals too.
-
the fandom so much more relaxed on touch boundries, it very freeing to be able to hug someone with out being seen as a sl** or some s*it like that.
-
I enjoy the people, the fursonas, and the roleplaying that happens with them.
-
I love the creativity and how open minded people seem to be about everything.
-
How supportive most of them are also the anthropomorphic animals :3
-
being able to surround myself with cute art and people and everyone is nice
-
Being able to come out of my shell and being able to be who I really want to be
-
I really really love the diversity in the community, especially when it comes to hobbies and talents! There's just so many talented people, from artists to programmers, and it blows my mind. Everyone's really inspiring, and I'm honored to be in this fandom ^_^
-
ALL OF IT!
Fursuiting
drawing anthros
being able to act like an animal (I hate people)
No smexual stuff tho.
