From: Ketra Saarinen What I feel being a furry means: 1. Pick an animal aspect that you like or means something to you. 2. Shed on the couch. 3. *HAVE FUN* That's it. All the labels, generalizations, and genre anthropology, in my opinion, just get in the way. Life's too serious and sucks too much as it is. Just have fun and enjoy yourself. Go bark up the wrong tree, find a pretty yarn ball, generate some static cling with another. I don't care what someone else is doing, I'm a furry because I enjoy it, and noone's going to stop me from doing just that.  ... Just Have Fun Oh and smile while you're at it. Sharp teeth make for better nibbling. Well said... well said. |

Then spend some time personalizing until your AV says "This is me, Corvus Drake." Then go out and have fun. Don't worry about what people think. If they don't like it, they aren't worth your notice. If they want to label you, that's their weakness. Just Have Fun Oh and smile while you're at it. Sharp teeth make for better nibbling. Very well said! |

THanks for everyone's input.
I do find it a bit disturbing how many people seemed to post, "noone can tell you what you are as a furry", then followed it up by telling me that I'm probably either not what I think I am or that I'm certainly not a certain cluster of things. I suppose that's forums for you.

You dont need to wear furry costume to be furry, but it it´s a pity most furry turned up being just fetish other than therianthropy

That´s how I wanted all to be, just can´t be because it isn´t right one has to have a choice of their own. BTW you guys are doing a really good job at SW, keep the good stuff commin Yiffy
