Conflict waiting to happen
« on: October 29, 2009, 01:13:37 AM »
Well my older brother that I look up to a lot is apparently a troll and doesn't know about me being a fur. When I was visiting him over the summer he straight out told me, "Stay away from furries Markus, there is something wrong with them." Note he said this after I said something about having friends who were furry. I don't know what to do or say. If I tell him, he's sure to go to my parents who can't stand anything not considered "normal" I need help with this, bad.

wait it out, get stronger, and then bite the bullet and tell them. Let them grow up and realise that you are who you are. You would probably need to learn some things too.

"Parents always think kids are wasting their youth, and always have done [so] down through the millennia," says Tom Forsyth of RAD Game Tools. "'That Ug, always holding things. His front paws will develop in funny ways. Why can't he walk on all fours like normal proto-hominids?' And so, whatever the kids spend the most time doing, that's always what parents think is a waste of time, and what is corrupting their lives. It doesn't matter what that is. If all they did was homework, parents would be worrying that their kids aren't becoming well-rounded people. And, in fact, parents do this - enrolling math nerds in karate classes and the like. There is no way to win - parental paranoia ensures that kids are always doing the wrong thing."

The best advice I can give you is if you do decide to let it be known, its probably best you tell your parents first that way you can explain it to them without all the added drama and hassle of your misinformed brother. However it is not something that needs be known unless you plan on parading around in furry regalia. Sometimes patience can have its virtue, you never know when a more ideal situation might arise that would make it worlds easier to reveal.

The only reason I would really want it known is so no one would wonder why I am going to Pennsylvania for a road trip right before I go off to college. It sounds stupid I know, but my brother is the one who made me want to be a chef and I can't just keep secrets from him even though I never see him anymore. Sorry for the random jumbled thoughts it's really hard to think right now.
