I couldn't care less honestly. While I'm not a furry, I am a brony (well more or less haven't watched anything MLP related in a while).  I think it's alright to be a furry (including the sexual kind). You're not really hurting anyone so I don't see why people should be able to do what they want.  If there's anything that actually bothers me it's people trying to dictate the lives of other people and what they can and cannot like when it's none of their buisness.

Ohmigosh, I'm so super glad I found this thread <3 I've thought of myself as a furry for years now!!~ While I don't go out in public wearing cat ears or a tail, or pretend to be a cat or whatever, I do have a fursona (which is a cat). My furriness stemmed from my obsession with warrior cats from 4th grade. (I'm still a little obsessed and I graduated high school last school year) I also have a ton of cat OCs. And, uh, I guess you can tell I really like cats. ^^;; They are my favorite animal, after all!! 

As for my opinion on furries? Well, I guess I know a few. I also know a bunch of bronies, but uh...not gonna get into that now. Let's just say I don't consider myself part of that fandom anymore >>;

I'm probably going to say the most bigoted thing I've ever said on this board, when I flat out say that I don't like them. Nothing against individuals, I just really don't like most furries. In my experience, they're obnoxious as hell. Like I said, nothing against individuals, I just don't like most furries.

Yeah... no. They have to parade it around even more than the MLP guys. I get it, you like a show and/or have a particular fetish, but you don't see me referencing every one of my obscure s*** things that I watch. The "original content" generated by the communities are usually half-done recolors and/or pandering to specific fetishes and/or hopping on the new "le maymay" train. I mean, I don't mind if you do those things, and I can't judge you based on your group, but as a whole the community is pretty screwy.

Fur isn't my thing, but to each his own. Sure, there are obnoxious furries, but there are obnoxious people in every group, so I don't automatically assume that a furry is going to be obnoxious. Most likely I interact with furries all the time without knowing it because they're the ones who don't proclaim their furriness at every opportunity.

I can understand the appeal somewhat though, since I think that I probably feel similarly in wanting to be tiny as furries do to wanting to be, well, furry. There's something that seems fun about being different than human, whether that involves having fur or a tail or scales or wings or changing in size. Personally though, I'd much rather shrink or just have wings or animal ears or a tail without all the fur everywhere else.

It seems that a lot of furries also like vore, which I don't want to exactly mention publicly, but sources point to me possibly liking that as well. So there, we have something in common.

Honestly, I couldn't really care less about what makes people happy. Who we are to judge what makes people happy? I rather them be happy then be depressed and feeling like they can't express themselves the way we want to. Some furries are really friendly people and I really don't mind people who role-play. People make it a big deal when its not and I would apperciate if people would account on their own experiences than the experiences of other people who don't even  like them and say all nasty things about them.

I think anyone who takes dressing up and having an alternate character or reality is really trying to escape something.  As long as anyone involved in the sexual side of furries (That's what I think when I hear furries) is competent and a willing participant, you can like anything you want.  People who change themselves to have a fantastic, and not realistic, lifestyle are afraid of parts of their real lives and this is how they either deal with things or how they avoid things.

Guys that dress up like goofs for NFL games are having fun.  Furries are taking on new personas and new names and dodging the real world.  I think of them as escapists.  There's nothing wrong it, either.  People watch movies to get away from their lives.  People read books or play games or assume roles other than themselves to avoid things.  Furries just make the extra effort.

They're not weird but I'm not totally comfortable around people that are under full costume or completely masked.  I don't care for it too much.

I have watched some shows and found the Otherkin really out there. 
but the whole furry thing, yeah, I don't like it.  I'm not going to bash it or be mean, I don't like brussel sprouts either but that doesn't mean anything. You asked, I told.

Linkums : Heh, I get your point. Many furs pick their fursonas based on their kinks, as a way to justify them based on species characteristics and/or habits. I'm a skunk in the fandom due to many reasons, one of them being my stink fetish... So yeah, as you said in your post, we share some things in common! :3

Skypaw298 : Ouch, so you had a bad experience with bronies? Man, that really sucks! Being forcefully removed from fandoms or any other kind of subculture is a really, really emotionally-painful experience and narrating it to other people hurts even more, so you can leave this topic as-is, if you wish to.

I'd say they disturb me, but I've gotten too used to them. I have loads of furries at my school and other locations i frequent. Because of that, i really don't care about what they do or don't do. Live and let live is the case with them.

I have a few friends who are part of fandoms such as those, and although I am not a part of it, I don't mind it so much. I admire them for understanding themselves, despite the social backlash others give to them. I can even understand it to some degree, to me I just look at it as personification in real life. You know, giving things human-like qualities. The only thing that bothers me is when they try to 'recruit' me into their fandom. Other than that I'm cool with them,  go out there and express yourselves (just don't affect other people).

Well I don't know any furries myself but honestly I don't care. They are still people like I am, so I'm not one to judge. Anyone can do say feel or act how they want. So I really don't have the right to judge anyone.

yay! Furries! I do not know much about them but, I have seen comic stuff (that I can't talk about lol) and I have meet one who was really quite decent though I was going in a different direction. Would love to friend some and get to know about this more. My bro is a bronie but, thatz MLP. Anyways, in all honesty I see nothing wrong with it though. Its actually quite interesting and well...wolfs rain IS my favorite anime so, I can see where I may have a connection here.
