Just wondering :)

Who chose the furry life style?  I was just wondering.  I do it as a cool hobbie

i think it chose me, its who i am on the inside without any masks

I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but I don't think people generally "choose" to be furry.  You just eventually realize that you are.

[NeWFur]

Hmm, that is true.  What I want to know is like, how do you specifically live a furry life style?  Is it giving all your time to the fandom?  Talking about fur art and fursuiting or is it alot more than I think it is?

i guess there's no specific way to follow a furry lifestyle;

however i guess that going to fur-cons dressed in an expensive suit of your own character would classify!


it's not specific to furries to lead a furry lifestyle. i wouldn't say that i follow a furry lifestyle too much. i go to the odd small-scale meet, i get my character drawn and i have animal posters all over my walls. pretty much it. do i lead a furry lifestyle? you may or may not say yes and that's fine. i would say no, and that's fine too

You don't choose to be a furry lifestyler; it chooses you.

To me, my fursona is a way of expressing my inner animal spirit. She's me in animal form; the anthro form is kinda too, but moreso with her feral form.

 To me, a lifestyler is someone who has an absolute and strong desire to be their fursona animal, wether because of body/spirit mix-ups, or just not wanting to be human and wearing the fursuit, body modifcations, and diet changes are all ways of expressing it.

i love spiritual furries. they seem to make my life worth living again! though i'm not massively spiritual about my furry self, whenever i meditate i am my fursona... either anthro or feral. i've taken a few long walks as a feral lion, usualy they're the most rewarding meditations i've had.

I've just started doing meditations... Maybe you could help me out?

I kinda find it hard to use my feral form because of the diffrences in limbs, but I wanna do that..,

[josh_down]

i'm pretty useless at meditating, but i'd love to help... i'll PM you

The method for living a furry lifestyle varies from one person to the next.  For example, I simply find furry art and community enjoyable.
