Are You A Furry?

Post by **Dissension** » Tue Jul 26, 2011 4:36 pm

I'm sure nobody wants things to get creepy. I know I don't.

...

Yes, I am a furry.

Is sasquach a furry? I'm just curious.
Or is it a kind of alien?

Yes.

Hypothesis: Dissension is actually a hive mind. And each member of the hive is asserting its furriness separately. No, of course I'm not being serious. =P

Anyway, I think I may have accidentally made my eight year old sister a furry. XD

How so? What'd you do?

Nah. No more than an ape is.

I am not a furry, but I sure do like hanging around them. They are quite fun and creative types. I like all my furry friends!

I am a human to the end, though. No matter how much my friends try to convert me!

I'm a furry =)

And, similar to what Coatl said, my little brother wants to become a furry too XD

Doesn't wanting to be a furry mean that he is a furry already?

Post by **Sleet** » Tue Aug 02, 2011 12:03 am

Yeah, if he says he is, he is...

Post by **Dissension** » Tue Aug 02, 2011 12:10 am

I concur with more authority! *giggles*

That's a good part of the reason I decided on being a wallaby. Though I resent your implication that snakes are ugly. =P

They aren't. They just don't make good anthropomorphs usually.

It's hard to assume; a lot of people here get mistaken for furries if they don't specifically say they aren't.

Hi again. Cardigan Welsh Corgi here. Coloring probably Blue Merle, but slacking on spots. x3

I'm still an otter.

Just felt like throwing that out.

Tue Aug 09, 2011 3:34 pm

and I'm still a human with shape-shifting abilities.

Post by **Sleet** » Tue Aug 09, 2011 6:53 pm

We'll have you a furry in no time. >:3

Nah, not really, but you're pretty furry for a human. Just sayin'.

Tue Aug 09, 2011 7:11 pm

my brother's girlfriend say that she and my brother are, and I quote... "half-furry"

he likes to say meow and she calls him "kitty"

so if it's genetic, I may become half-furry. if not, I still may.

Post by **Sleet** » Tue Aug 09, 2011 7:14 pm

I'm not entirely sure on this, but I am slightly confident being a furry isn't genetic.

Tue Aug 09, 2011 7:19 pm

but the personality traits that may lead one to possibly being a furry could be a bit genetic, to a certain extent, maybe. and environment may play a role.

I used too many non-absolutes.

I would say that environment plays the biggest role. While genetics can play a part in regards to the general idea of what's interesting, it takes experience to define specifics. For example, my father and I both enjoy creating. However, he presents this through gardening, and I through drawing. It's the same idea, but manifested differently.

Post by **Sleet** » Wed Aug 10, 2011 1:23 am

It's pretty much all environmental, I'm pretty sure. Nerds tend to raise nerds, jocks tend to raise jocks, etc.

Blue Braixen · Post by **Blue Braixen** » Wed Aug 10, 2011 3:57 am

Not necessarily. It can have a lot to do with one's personality and not always be the product of one's upbringing. It all boils down to whether you have a genuine interest in furry <insert object or activity here>.

There are also warning signs as to when somebody's a furry but is in some serious denial, but telling wouldn't be any fun.

Do you consider yourself a furry?
