Today, my mom asked if this forum was safe, and asked if it was anything like this show on TV where people dressed up as animals and took phermones.
 T_T
I kinda used a few words that I can't say here... Not the s-word or the f-word or the a-h-word or anything, but some words...

But it all turned out okay in the end before I left to go to the library.

When I first told my parents I was a furry, they were like, "srsly whut the heck." But I explained more, and then my parents were, "ok that's cool."

Sadly though, some people at my school think I'm a perv. >:U

those derpheads. xD

well my advice is when your friends are over and your on this forum don't hide it when they see it you say that its a site that you are a member on and if they say they wanna join or see the site a bit more that's when you confess that you are a furry you then show them the what is furry forum post and they may want to join as well.A real example of this is when two friends saw me on tff at school they saw my fursona and found it cute and while i checked all messages they found my fellow furs furriness cute as well so they joined im still trying to explain the concept of furry to them still but i am sure they will learn to blend in  :3

you can wear a collar around your friends and they will probably ask why you are wearing that. Then you can tell them. Therefore, they are asking you rather than you telling them which in practice is better.
