what furry means to you

[Righteousbro]

Well, I feel like it's a way to express myself artistically and more just showing who I really am, and it's an awesome community mostly.
I have always had an affinity towards anthros and used to experiment around in drawing with things like werewolfs, just making them different species and imagining them being more peaceful and instead of transforming being always the animal state, I also made stories to further represent them.
And the community is so nice and accepting the person reading this probably knows more about me then people I know in real life, and they still don't know much...
One thing though is people overreact way to much in real life, here nobody cares and most people are just nice regardless.
I remember a few weeks ago the topic of alternate sexualities came out and then I mentioned I was bi and everyone flipped out, it took ten minutes for them to start believing I was joking (I wasn't but still.)

So, people are nicer, and I feel awesomer .

i get this impression too! i ordered some stuff from rabbitvalley a few days ago and got three emails from the company, one from a guy called "Sean Rabbit" who i would imagine is the owner of the rabbitvalley shop. the way in which he wrote everything just seemed so much warmer than other places i've ordered stuff from in my time. perhaps it's because rabbitvalley is a pretty small company, but still... it made me feel much better about furries as people.

and the sexuality thing... furries don't seem to care much because it's the norm now. if a fury had a problem with gay and bi people then he wouldn't be a furry long.

For me, being a furry is a great way to show how much I love animals and appreciate art.  It's a great nerdy outlet as well!

I find the whole furry fandom to be a great way to enjoy myself. I mean after a while the whole

"Wake up.
Go to school.
Go Home.
Do Homework.
Go To Sleep."

routine gets really boring. I mean life, (at least for me), is usually a big routine day in and day out. So boring T,T

Plus the art is cute
And there are a lot of really nice furs out there.
I don't really get it but it seems like Furry's are nicer than the people we deal with day in and day out. Most of the time.
Like a nice Aura.
*draws a blue ball* See. Aura.

to me, its something to kill time, my career keeps me busy a lot of the times, so when am off it gives me some what of a hobby to work on. I love the art work and the costumes am working on a costume for myself, and the love of my life is going to teach me how to draw
