My brother does, a few of my friends do.
It's not like I run around the city in a fox costume screaming about Disney but that doesn't change the fact that a kangaroo fox is my desktop background.

Yeah, it was called "Does anyone know you're a furry", but I merged it.

No one knows it's just never really occurred to me to tell anyone , well I definitely have givin hints to me being a furry unintentionally; like when ever I'm on the Internet with freinds and I see a fursona or something of that description I get excited, so they might have figured it out or not. Besides just little mannerisms like that no one knows.
Just you average every day furry

Absolutely nobody outside of this forum knows, nor am I going to tell them that I'm a furry. I try to keep that hidden, since some friends that I know, especially online, have a problem with furries.

Not many people know, and if they do know I'm not one to talk about it unless it's brought up. I never have really told anyone directly, they just look in my sketchbook and figure it out. None of them really care about my furry interests anyway and that may be for the better.

Only a small handful of people know. One I told because I knew she probably would think it was cool, one I told after he had a negative conversation within earshot about furries who later apologized and asked me about it, and one is my partner so full disclosure there pretty much. She and I joke about it and it isn't really an issue. I am more or less nonchalant about it all when talking about it with other people. For me it isn't so much a lifestyle but is instead a creativity thing so I guess that is easier for most people to accept.

I've been drawing anthro characters since fifth grade or so, and most people who looked in my sketchbook and saw them were usually just like "oh, that's interesting/neat/etc." I don't think furries were really well know where I grew up ^^'

But nowadays and starting college there will probably be more people who know about it. I don't really mind if others know unless they're really negative or only believe in stereotypes. For me also it's very much a creative activity, and a little bit of community as well.
