@Vortex - I became a furry because I just fell in love with the art and wanted to create my own fursona, and then made some awesome friends along the way!
@Alka - Long story

I've never really been an 'alpha-male' type person and I never really felt like being called a 'man' was really right for me (like feeling mild dysphoria even). So I looked around, found people who were in similar situations and started talking to them. One day I just suddenly felt super wrong about it (no idea why) so I began digging further. So I guess in short it was a lot of things over time which led to me eventually just going I HAVE NO IDEA I guess xD
