I Like Housepets, But I'm Not a Furry

Is this uncommon? Don't any of you dare do that "one of us" thing. -__-

Never took a poll, but I'd guess the "Unfurried" hold a majority of the readership and membership on the Forum. Now, a more focused question would be "How many active particiants are furries?'" If you asked that, then you'd have to define "active" - once a week entry? Every two weeks? Once a month?

That would be an interesting bit of research to undertake ... if someone was to "Dare" (Muh huu hah hah hah hah hah :twisted: !!!)

You should be furry. It's more fun!

It kind of depends on what you would actually consider a furry in order to claim that you are or aren't a furry since I don't think there is any defined metric. If you say that a furry is someone that goes to furry conventions and feels a deep connection with an animal then I most certainly would not qualify. However if you say a furry is someone who enjoys anthropomorphic animals and has a fursona then I do qualify.

...Even though it has been AGES since I had my fursona shown on the forum... <_<

Remember what the furries say, you're only one if you want to be one!

Alright, strap in for this one. Ever since I've had an account to comment with on websites, I've been called a furry. The first time I was ever called one, my age wasn't even 2 digits yet. Eventually, many years later, I got sick of always being called one and gave in and joined the community. I did not stay very long, because I realized I didn't even want to join the community. I only joined it to shut people up and make what I always got called true. I may like anthropomorphic animals, but I feel no connection with the community, and that was okay.

I love anthro animals but I don't think I want to have a fursona myself, even in roleplays, I don't really roleplay as an animal, more like a human in most cases

Even as far back as almost 20 years ago when I got into RPing I didn't really use humans much because the fandom I was involved with was the Mario fandom. So I would make up OCs that were Koopas and Yoshis and just stayed in there for a while and it took some time before I finally moved on to anthro animals.
