Hi everyone,
First off, I just have to say that it is a great relief to finally find this site. I've been aware of being a furry for years now, but I've always gravitated towards animals and anthros. I blame The Lion King.
That's been my favorite Disney film, and indeed my arguable favorite film of all time. I started out playing that I was Simba, both while he was still a cub, and then later when he grew up, living out my own sequel to the film well before they actually made one. I also started pretending to be a fox after seeing The Fox and the Hound. Later, wolf entered my imagination after seeing Balto, which is another sentimental favorite of mine.
As I grew older, my furriness faded back into my subconscious for awhile until one of my friends mentioned fchan in conversation once. Curious, I went to the site to see what the infamy was really about, and that's when I was not only made aware of the term furry, but realized I was one. And really until tonight, that was the only exposure to the furry fandom I had. That's never really bothered me until recently, when I befriended another furry on Xbox LIVE who asked me if I knew what one was after seeing my Avatar, which I'd made to look like a white tiger.
So yeah, it's nice to finally be among other furries on something other than a porn site.
Oh, and the white tiger fursona? That's really an evolution of the fact that I used to imagine that I was one even before I'd seen The Lion King.
