Ever since I was a little kid, i've felt weird about being a person. I've often asked myself, "where's my tail?" "Why do I have ears on the side of my head"? I don't feel comfortable in my own skin and I would do anything possible to truely be myself. Walking on like a fox feels very natural to me. I feel like I was born into the wrong body. :3
-
most of the time, no, but occasionally I catch myself feeling like that. It's strange, but yeah i do kinda understand what you mean
-
Yes actually. I feel more natural when I act as my fursona. I actually act like my fursona almost on a 24/7 time period now but I stop a lot.
-
Sometimes. I dunno about feeling like I was "supposed to be" her, since she's a fictional animal and all... but I do enjoy thinking about what it would be like to be her.
-
i feel like it a lot. But i can't always show it. When i can show it it feels right.
-
I before I was a furry acted like an animal alot and now I always do. At times I feel like I should have been born a animal instead but hey what can ya do?
I sleep like my fursona and growl and hiss alot etc
-
nope, not really, i act like how my fursona does, but i was born as me...so ehh
-
I've always felt close to nature. i liked animals more than people anyways. not too social. i feel like Ishould just be myself, so i do what i want when i want. THat's why i wear a collar. i express myself freely. and i act like i feel.
-
wearing collar's ftw :3, im makin mine fluffieh now cause i got sum fur
-
Well, for me it would be the other way around... that my 'sona should be me, not just a reflection of me. But this nom de plume (pen name) is one I'll stick to while here or elsewhere.
-
That sounds a lot like a therian characteristic to me, sure I feel like I'm not supposed to be this way but I know I am. It would be great if such things were possible besides dreamland x.x
-
I know, right?
If they don't know what a fur is, I'll explain it.
But if they think its some kind of perverse pleasure with our... Animal kin... I don't even bother with them.
-
well my fursona is essentially me...just..more fur...tail and pointy ears..o.O
-
OF COURSE!!!!!! oh my god if i could be rex...... that is my one and only wish, and it would have to be in a more furry world, would'nt work to be rex in this world.... but id like to keep my friends and family, so they'd have to come with. IT WOULD BE AWESOME >.<, i really really wish that could happen.....

also rex is, me, my personaliy in an arctic fox/ human body, and i'd rather be him, can't say i do a whole lot of acting the part except growling and 24/7 nonstop thinking about it

Congratulations, you can join the line of all the rest of the furries who think they were born in the wrong body and need to roam free with their brothers. You, at the very least, get bonus points for not being another wolf.

I'm going to assume you meant that jokingly, but please be more considerate about making generalizations about furries in a Furry Forum.
-
I'd have to say no. My fursona's more or less who I am just without me being a fox. :P
There was this one time though when I was at a house party and I got really entoxicated. I had a full out conversation with my fursona at the table. My friends described the whole thing to me and they said I was talking to someone's leather jacket about how many ways I could fold a newspaper and that I mentioned the name "Spike" a lot. *shrug*
-
Well, my fursona is who I want to be in my dreams.
I've been striving to become like her. Stronger, faster, all that. XD
I would like to be her feral form though. :D
-
Isnt it sad! I've always loved carrots but I just can't grow ears long enough :(
-
I seriously feel like I should be a wolf, constantly I find myself really trying to make it happen, it feels so natural. I wouldn't know which animal to be, a lot of the time I meow and hiss, but I also growl and bark, depends on personality. If its just simple anger, I usually hiss, but if there is serious intense anger I growl deep down in my throat. I meow randomly when I'm sad and pur when I'm happy.
-
kinda. it would be rather awesome, but my fursona is just a version of me with fur and foxy-er looks. i act a bit like an animal in real life and i always have.
-
Shiro is me but foxeh. And thinner.
other than that, yeah i do feel more natural when acting like shiro, but that is just me acting like myself.
perfectly normal for a furry :D
-
I agree with shiro, though sometimes I'd much rather be my fursona, the best I can do is a fursuit, and I don't even have one, so I'm going to make a tail, and ears, or get some ears.... like an Arctic fox hat! :D
-
I dunno about feeling like I was "supposed to be" her, since she's a fictional animal and all... but I do enjoy thinking about what it would be like to be her.
Yeah, i'd have to agree with what Zeph said there... would be cool... but nontheless, Kitt in all honesty is just me, plus the felineness.... you met me in real life, i'd be the same as my fursona personality wise...
(well actually i lie, Kitt has a scrambler dirtbike... but dont worry! Im working on getting that too ;) )
-
Personally, I don't feel as if I should be her. She is fiction.. My characters are more or less an extension of myself. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to be the creature that Nyx / Rigor is.. But I don't feel as if it's "supposed" to happen, or that I'm trapped in a human body or something like that. I know that I am human and I never will be or have been my persona.
-
Sometime I thinking about Spirit/Lunar/Twilight because they are me...their have same personal of me. But I wont act them in RL so I wish I could transforming to them to be one :P
All them will be with me and I will not disowned them..that I created them for me.
-
i've been feeling a change in my behavior recently. much more animal like, and i do play with cat toys....
-
Well I guess we shouldn't necessarily be our fersona, but our fersona should be us, just animalish and fuzzier and stuff.
-
Well keep them inside you but can wear collar or sumthing... to saying that we are part of furry ..because I have inner animals to be show up by same personal of me :P
-
Well, I personally don't really believe in reincarnation, but if there is such a thing, I was definitely a wolf in another life. Meiari is me. She's just the form that the creative aspect of my mind views myself as. :3
-
I'm a Therian so that means I really do believe my spirit is that of my animal. Its all a buncha lunacy but its what I believe.
-
At least you have that, therians are rarely found among furries so it's good to see somebody that is serious about his animal association. Otherkin for the win here as I stand alone among the many :P
-
I'm not sure that it was my LAST life, but I do believe in reincarnation, and it may have been any of my previous lifetimes. So, I won't rule out me being a wolf somewhere in the past.
-
I partially act like my fursona, but mixing it with my RL self, which does help me overcome my shyness, which nobody believes I have!
-

I'm gonna' get in trouble for arguing with a mod but; these kind of comments do more to deny the stereotype he's knowingly mocking than any denial to outsiders. It shows we're not winy, self-righteous so-&-so's, but can take a self-mocking joke like the next person.
Anyway, back on topic. I do occasionally find myself scratching my ears where they aren't, or reaching out to touch my tail but it's not there. However that's me doing what I'd like to be able to do, not what I feel I should be able to do. I know there's no way I can or could be an anthro but I can still live in hope.
-

Me too, also, i dont really feel that im supposed to be any of my sonas, but when i think of myself, i'd rather picture myself as a fox than a human B)
-
In a sense, Is suppose. My fursona - whose name was taken from my chat handle at the time - is basically how I want to be.
Slim, confidant, friendly and physically fit. The only difference is his species, really.
-
I tend to feel more free in my fursona, but when I'm around my friends I feel like I should tell them, but I'm scared of rejetion anyone got some advice for a confused wolfeh :?
-
Theres a thread for advice on that, but first just check to see if they even know what a furry is. If not explain, if so and its wrong choose whether or not to correct them or not tell them and let the be ignorant. Read more in the thread for it though.
-
I for one truelly feel that I was born wrong raised wrong and taught wrong I sometimes receede into the confines of mine own mind where I can almost feel the outer rim of my eldunarï (quote for inheritance cycle fans) i feel as if I were in the wrong body I can sometimes flap mine own wings or reach back and feel my tail but I let out a groan as I realize they are nowhere to be found my one and only true wish is that the whole world switches and we are all Real furries
I sometimes think about dropping the scales and embracing the fur
but then witch animal :? Idk very difficult :S
-
Woah. I think we've stumbeld apon a huge subject here.
I myself feel like you. Of corse I belive in past lifes and life apon the grave. The universe. Some of the smartest people in the world know 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 ect... If people don't know anything about the universe, what's to say we wern't all are fursonas? Who's to say we haven't basicly been born in the wrong body? Maby we all were are fursonas in a past life? Maby that's why we're furrys? WHO KNOWS? I for one am hoping to become what I dream about in the next life but who knows? Who knows...
Only time can tell us :/
but this is a HUGE subject

But it's also very dipresing subject, that usaly lowers my mood:(...
-
U r right this is a gigantic jubject and those are some great points too I completley agree with you ;)
-
Same here ^_^
-
I personally do wish I was my fursona. She is a beautiful image in my eyes and I do wish sometimes I could have been born in her body. >:3
-
I feel like that alot. It just seems wrong being in this body when paws and large ears and a fluffy tail seem so much more natural. And running through the woods at night and hunting for my food and just being... wild. It all fits me so much better. I used to imagine what it would be like to be a horse and have miles of plains to run on.

:P That actually sounds quite beautiful. As new to the actual community of furs as I am, it's nice to find people who feel the same I do. I mean, if I were to tell ANYONE how I feel, they'd just me like :o to me. But around here, I'm glad that I can meet people I relate to. I've never had friends I could be 100% with, and with furs, I get much closer to 100% than normal. ^_^ I know it seems sappy, but it just feels like an honour to talk to everyone here, because I'm not judged, haha.
<.< So to everyone reading this, I would like to give a very sentimental thank you to you all. <3
-
:P That actually sounds quite beautiful.
Thanks lol.
And I know what you mean about the rest, I used to think that either my brain was defective or I had somehow been an animal in another lifetime. Now I've discovered that I'm not alone. :D
-
I haven't told anyone yet because they'd be all :o at me and I would probably by shunned from some freind circles but I do agree with you I've always held secrets close and this is my biggest secret ever and I feel very comfortable here talking with my actual "friends" not the people at school who'd you get tha picture :P
-
I have that feeling a lot. But that feeling of not belonging has stuck with me as long as I can remember. It kinkda sucks when you don't feel as though you don't belong in your own family. :S
-

Yeah, lol. Kinda feels like that picture I saw on a website that says "Me tinks teh stork makes a mistake".
-
I deffinetly feel like you guys, I often subconsciously walk waving my tail from side to to side to shockingly find it missing, I just feel like I'm in a parralel universe where all us wolves, pandas, cats, horses, foxes ect are in a human body that mirrors our fursona, if they ever find a way to transform us into anthro animals I'll be first in line fir the treatment
-
More a bond that defines what I view as an "ideal body". Sometimes it's anthro... sometimes it's feral, but when it's feral I'm usually feeling sorrowfull, with the species the focus. Sometimes I get the whole phantom limb deal, but it's not really so strong as say, my feelings on gender and sex.
-
I feel the same but for me when it's feral I'm usually burning with rage.
-
I can always feel my phantom limbs wings,tail etc. i've just felt it there and I always take care before sitting down so I can get in a comfortable position (so I don't sit on myself)
but the feeling is there I didn't know what it was at first but now I know what I am and I'm happy :P

so true ^_^
-
Yes true verry true :P
-
I'm always "in" my feral form.
I only use my anthro for furry puroposes and RP. XD
-
basicly frost is just a more fitting vesel for my mind than my RL body, so gues you could say tht i feel like i should be him.
-
It feels the same here but I don't have a pic yet

lol I do the same thing, when I have my tail, without it....I would miss it terribly :'(
-
I just be myself, and my black panther side is just that, "me."
-

I see what u mean and yes I do the same thing :)
-
Hrm, when i first hit puberty, yes i felt like that all the time. I kinda grew out of it but...i mean come on, everyone wants to be someone else sometimes.
-
I do the same thing alot. Always thought I was crazy until I found out I'm not the only one, and I'll never tell a non-fur. Sometimes when I'm driving I feel like it's paws on the wheel. I involuntarily flatten my ears to my head when I duck under something low. And sometimes it feels weird realizing that my tail is gone, or never was there.
-
Yes I get that too.
It's hard to explain so thanks :)
-
lol, i try to move my ears
i tend to growl at people.
and i pretend i have a tail.
im kind of a dork lmao
-
I really can't say it enough... Yeah, I do. Just look at my other posts. As I always said, that hybrid in that picture beside this post? He isn't a character, he isn't fictional, he's me. All me. How I look, how I feel. And I want to look like how I am. I can't... I want to so badly... Am I a freak? Maybe. Do I really care what outsiders think? No. I am who I am. Got a problem with that? Then you have a problem with yourself, not me.
I sleep curled up, always have. When I want someone to go away, I do growl. I have other traits, but basically how the others here are, and I'm to tired to list every single one... :<
Altho, I would never wear a collar. To me a collar represents someone who is trapped, who is owned. I wanna be free, and I have no owner.
-
My Scalie is the future me :P So i can say that yes i do feel like my Scalie because it is my plan to become it.
My future self is 416 years so that gives me 400 years to become my Scalie ^_^ Although if i havent succeeded in extending my life expectancy in the next 60 years, ill have a problem :S
Not too mention if i want the history i have planned to work out in sync then ill only have 200 years to do what i need to do, to become my Scalie :/
-
A collar without tags to me signifies freedom, and that your only master is yourself.
That's why I like wearing one (That, and it feels comfortable to me now.)

My collar signifies that the pigeons are safe!.. and stuff :p

Um. Yea. I like trying various meats at near raw conditions. But just thawed meat is disusting! :<

Well, it was jokey on the pigeon front, but wearing a collar holds importance to me.

(Shrugs)
But have any of you tried raw bacon?
Not bad, as long as its room temp. (I'm a bacteria's best friend...)
-
Lol Bacteria :P

Backseat moderating isn't necessary.
I think this thread has run its course.
