Title: Hello. I'm new
Post by: Aftertheshot on June 11, 2019, 12:55:39 AM
Hello. I'm new and have some questions. I don't live as a furry but, have been introduced to the world of fantasy pet role play by the most amazing woman I have met and am totally intrigued. Is this community about this type of fetish or is it more of a total lifestyle?

Hello and welcome!
Honestly it's neither. It's more about the community and about art. Lifestyle is also cool, but it's not as common.
You can look around some boards, see what we talk about.

If you have any more questions feel free to ask them here, or even better, send a private message. I'll be happy to help you.
See you around!

Hey there welcome to the forum!

First I would like to mention that the public boards are strictly non sexual. The forum is open to anyone above the age of 13 and so talk about sexual things isn't really appropriate with 13 year olds... there is a part of the forum where you can talk about this stuff called the adult forum (https://www.thefurryforum.com/forums/index.php?board=113.0) however.

Now to answer your question about what a furry is, the answer has been asked many times so our Cat Dragon (Cagon) queen Winged Zephyr has been kind enough to make a handy guide answering this exact question: What is a furry? (https://www.thefurryforum.com/forums/index.php?topic=16042.0)

And the tl;dr version is a furry is anyone who is a fan of anthropormophised animals, that is animals with human-like qualities. Some just enjoy the art, some just enjoy the community, some get expensive suits so they can dress up as their original character, it's an extremely diverse group of people. But what you're describing in your post is something else, which if you're curious I can talk more about in PM.

Hello. Welcome to the Furry Forums. Furries are a diverse sub-culture, ranging in interests. There is no "bar" for entry per se, othe rthna liking anthromorphic creatures. I would implore you to keep all your interactions SFW though - we have children here. Enjoy your stay regardless.

Well, that's why I posted my original comment. I wasn't sure exactly what was up. I respect that this forum is open to All and wouldn't post anything inappropriate.

(I would like to join on the talk!)

As you probably heard from the kind people (that were faster than me), you already have most of your questions answered.
However, I would like to give you a personal welcome (for all that's worth) to The Furry Forums! I'm sure you will find some topic you enjoy, and will have fun while doing it! Talk with people about interesting and random thoughts peoples' minds have created. Show your creative mind in the creative board, or discuss music and more! Meet other furries and so much more on The Furry Forums.
