Not sure if furry, but...
« on: June 17, 2012, 06:49:00 AM »
...I think my little sister might be. I've always wondered if I was and I think that I am sort-of furry. What sparked this post was my sister asking "what is a furry exactly" when we were watching a Minecraft video on a Furry server. She does art commissions of animals all the time and has drawn many fursonas, and with her being so into animals I figured that she could easily be a furry herself. I am probably going to say something to her tomorrow about the internet definitions of it.


That being said, I don't know how big of a part of this community I will end up becoming. I usually abandon forums after a few months, but I love the atmosphere that furry communities have.


Also, if anyone needs an encouraging note, I have been privately talking to people and encouraging them about different issues for a while now on other forums/chats. Feel free to PM me and I may also enable e-mail soon. (I also have written companion letters to various "coming-outs" for people if you need something to give family/friends. This takes me enough time that I can't guarantee every request will be finished)

Not all Star Trek fans are Trekkies, not all furry fans are furries, but that's the definition of both. Welcome.

Well hi :P I'm Anoni and if you have any questions be sure to PM me :3

As for your furriness thing, just remember that the fandom is very diverse and it's a very vague term, which is good, because it means you don't actually have to be very active to still be called a furry! Do what you want and be as active as you like! But I strongly suggest a search around the forums to see if there's anything that catches your fancy, if you want to meet new furs posting in FunRP or Forum Games can always be a good idea too!

Hope you enjoy your stay! :D

Nevermind about the not sure thing; after thinking about it for less than five minutes I realized that I could definitely label myself as furry, even though it isn't a huge part of my life. I just kind of wanted to enter the community a bit more in order to find out what it was really like (I have met others on other websites, but haven't really entered into anything before this).

Thanks all for the warm welcome!
