I would post this in the Rants/Advice area but I really don't think its that serious to go there. B)
I'm just having a hard time keeping it as a secret
Some people have already started calling me a furry, but as a more playful and jokingly way compared to a serious way haha
How do you secretly be furry?
Also, sorry if the font becomes tiny for some reason. My posts become glitchy sometimes o.O
Luf u all xd

I think if you simply don't tell people it's secret enough. They can guess all they want, doesn't mean you are x3
What are you doing or wearing when they say this to you?
Usually when people say I'm a furry I'm fursuiting or drawing creatures, or talking about specific subjects. So far no bad experiences though :P
-
Tell no one.
Leave minimum traces behind
delete must pictures of yourself related to furry sites/forums and you should be good

My friend is an annoying guy that's like EVERYONE THIS GUY IS A FURRY! So it worked out quite well on my end >:( (Sarcastically speaking.)
In any case if I were you don't tell anyone. Or tell your most trusted friend but explain to them to keep it a secret. You don't want a friend that doesn't know anything about furries to run around advertising his/her furry friend to the haters/bullies/ people that think furries are all about something inappropriate. So many people knew I was a furry in highschool that quite litterally an old friend from a different high school heard that I was a furry. XD (Quite seriously.) And yeah delete any furry pictures of yourself.

Just keep it as an online thing if you don't want it part of your IRL stuff. You don't need to be all secretive or anything, as people won't ask unless you give them a reason to.
I'm sure there's more potentially embarrassing things in your net history than furries. XD

Holy crap, got more responses than I expected.
Thanks everyone for the tips, eh?
It's just that I've only told 5 friends and (I don't know who) but someone is probably leaking the fact :/

If you're well liked by everyone, let it be. At my high school Everyone knew I was a furry, but since a lot of people had my back, everyone would bring it up and tease me on it, but in a more friendly way. Hell I even I joked about it. Sometimes letting it be works out. ^.^ Heck that's how I made a new friend, he came up to me and said, "I heard you're a furry." I got defensive, but turns out he was too ^.^

Time to purge them.

Use this trick I always apply to people:
tell every signle one of those 5 a different made-up secret.
When one of the made-up secret emerges you know which one can't be trusted

Really, this^
You don't need to act all mysterious or anything, and I especially wouldn't try to play with people's trust like that. If you're sacrificing your integrity for privacy, what's the point of privacy in the first place?

Just accept it.
I mean honestly its not like your going to the death camps XD

But the only way to secretly be furry is just not exhibit it in any way.
Which I dunno doesn't make much sense to me I never cared for judgey people and will never care about anyone elses expectations atleast not if they dont match my own.

You don't know that!! :(

Tell me if it worked

Not getting much results lol.

What grade you in?
-
I'm in Australia and we call it 'years' instead of 'grades' so I'm in year 8. I don't know how the 'grade' system works, or if its different. But since we also have kindergarten it's technically my 9th year at school.
Sorry if it sounds confusing. Lets just make it simple and say its my second year in high school.

I dont go out of my way to hide being a furry, but I don't advertise it much either.
My friends and family know Im a furry because I leave my con badges and artwork hanging around. I even bring my non-furry friends to conventions to party in the hotel block.
I've had a couple friends ask why I have all this artwork and what my con badges are for, but I just say because I like this style of artwork and this is my character I've designed for artists to draw. If they ask if I'm a furry I admit to it, ain't nothing wrong with it. Way I see it, if they don't want to be friends over me being a fur then it's worth never speaking to someone like them who dwell on something so insignifcant to a friendship that they missed out on.
