Ok so I haven't written in this thing FOREVER! But I usually just use LJ for my fursuiting community stuff I haven't felt the need to write in it ( Read more... )

I'm always glad to hear you're doing well. Are you in a fur-wearing community?

Oh wait, you've probably heard that joke. Still glad you're doing well.

Not sure if your serious, but yea don't comment on something if you're not going to read it.

obviously i did read it if i asked bout the furry thing.
also, i dont think i saw that episode of csi so not sure what youre talking about. and you didnt really explain anything to me. i dont know anything about it, at all. what i wrote was all i've heard. what goes on? what is it? and why do you do it? whats the appeal..and so on and so forth. i asked an honest question out of curiousity hoping for an informative answer. i'm not attacking you, i want to know. :) defenses down maddy.

Also you're getting your facts about the furry fandom from CSI, which are completely erroneous. Yes, some of us fur suit. Yea, there are some freaks among us, but most of us are pretty normal and hide from the freaks. (Think thoes freakzoids out on rideau who aren't homeless or anything, they just hang out and scare people.)

Thas the jist of it really.

Furries are.... complicated. For the most part we're just folks who greatly appreciate anthro art. That's animals with humanoid features, like walking on two legs, wearing clothe blahblah. Some furries, like me, have interest in fursuiting. Thats having the sort of mascot suit that represents your fursona (furry persona). Mine's a bunny, like in my user picture.

Unfortunately things like CSI and Vanity Fair have given the fandom some really really bad press in the past. So if you were to google furry, you'd probably find erroneous hate-sites, furry porn, and maaaybe like one n a billion sites that are just fandom sites. I'm actually quite glad you asked me rather than googling it. I'm a bit defensive since the knowledge my furrieness made first semester hell and a half this year.
