i wish i was secure enough to tell my friends, but every time i think about it i hit this wall and can't, i don't want to loose them (they are too good friends to be mean about it, but the akward thing would murder the friendship) and i'm kinda the 'big tough guy' in my group (beard and all lol) so that makes it REALLY hard  :th_PyongLlora:



This is the wall i hit ----->  :squish: lol

erm, by the by, i was looking around the site and got some pretty hostile vibes from people about 'yiff' art and so forth, is it really that big a deal, i mean, i like it, does that make me a bad person or something?

The reason some furries may feel "hostile" about yiff is because a lot of the time it sends the wrong message to non-furs, making it harder to tell people about being a furry. Furs who don't like yiff, in particular, dislike having it assumed that they like yiff if/when they tell someone about being a fur. Basically, the real problem is that non-furs just don't understand that some furries like yiff, but that it isn't a "requirement" of being a furry. It's all about the trouble of misunderstandings. There really isn't anything wrong with liking yiff, and it doesn't make you a bad person if you like it. Lots of furs do. But of course, just make sure to keep it out this forum unless in the adult section.


But anyway, back to the original question of the thread, I did actually tell someone about being a furry recently - my boyfriend. I was afraid of how he'd take it, but he actually was pretty interested in it and ended up loving the idea of fursuits and everything and wanted to get one. (The very same night I told him.) So yeah, that was kind of unexpected, but much better than what I was expecting.

WOW! you're lucky you have someone like that in your life, i think that's the most important thing to have, someone who is understanding and supportive (and in your case with intrest in the same thing) ^.^

and yeah, i had kind of figured that about yiff, the first time someone saw me on the board here at school they mentioned the CSI episode, i never get offended when someone makes a diragitory comment at me, no matter what, but that one offhand comment almost got his arse kicked >.<
