I don't consider myself a part of "the fandom".
I didn't know it was a thing until much later. I saw people drawing animal characters in Scratchpad (Lunchtimers oekaki) and I liked them so I drew them too. Having your own character was a common way to identify yourself, so I made one back then.
I didn't consciously make a "fursona" until I found Tegaki E though and saw people "blogging" with furry OCs.

yeah, well I didn't lose my virginity until I was 21. And even then, social retardation means that I've been unable to orgasm from another person. So.
To answer the original question: I'm an oddball in that I didn't start using the internet until I was about 15 or 16. I was one of the weird kids who played outside. I discovered furry from google images, and that brought me to 4chan for the fur threads.
I still remember the first furry porn image that I saw. It was a picture of a male and a female racoon having sex in a bathroom, titled something like "bathroom break" or something. I remember being weirded out, then aroused.

That's pretty much it. But since I'm european, the community for my country is way more cancerous and full of dramas. So, I ditched all of it and right now, my only direct contact with the "fandom" is 8/fur/, 8/furry/, F-list and some furry Discord servers.

Ever since I was a kid I was obsessed with mythology and cool supernatural animal beasts, mixing my love of animals and mythology I very quickly jumped onto the werewolf bandwagon.
Was obsessed with finding images like pic related and spent hours everyday scrolling through google images and watching dumb youtube slideshows until I started seeing "werewolves in clothes", some of the image links mentioned furries and after googling furry art I was entranced. I thought it was cool that there were so many pictures of "were creatures who lived normal lives and stay in animal form".
Spent years calling furries smart werewolves or werecreatures because I didn't know any better. Eventually got more into anime (especially ginga densetsu weed), drew fanart, made crappy coloured OCs in Paint and noticed a lot of people made their own feral characters. Seen a few getting some anti-furry hate, googled it and only seen stuff relating to yiff or people saying they're all into bestiality. Went into denial and said I was a furry because my characters wernt humanoid and were "actual animals"
Years later I found animations on youtube with typical sparkle fur characters, thought they were cute and innocent and were being made by people around my age at the time. Didn't see anything wrong or sexual about it and I thought "these people must have a reason to call themselves a furry, right?" Found some videos made by furries explaining what a furry was, started to understand and kinda went "well fuck, I guess I'm a furry"
Strangely enough I don't have any feral characters anymore, apart from really old ones I used for lion king RPs

I had a boyfriend in high school that was a furry. I knew about the porn from several years before, but didn't think much of it as I was more into shotacon at the time. If I wanted something with fur on it bestiality was a thing, and easily acquirable on the internet in the early 2000's.
He kinda got me into the fandom and got me more into furry porn after I figured out there was a such thing as cubs. That was right about when Softpaw came out, so it started getting more acceptable for people to draw them. My interest expanded a little bit from there to adult furry males, but that's all.
>on masturbation
I can't remember a time I haven't been doing it, and for sure I've been doing it regularly since before kindergarten. Lost my virginity at age 12 with another boy, incidentally. I would have thought you'd have to be raised in one of those hardcore fundie families that slapped you if you so much as looked at your private parts, to get to puberty before figuring out what your dick can do.

So I decided to look up a dog equivalent; to make it make sense I was looking for some half-werewolf bullshit. I got some adapted homebrew accepted and playing it combined with image searching eventually caused the idea of being furry to grow on me.

Natural interest.
I've always generally loved anthro characters in video games and on television, even when I was like six.
I seriously had a hard time enjoying good shows like the Pirates of Dark Water as a kid because I didn't really like the human characters that much.
I was even kind of meh on Thundercats, but Swat Katz were my fucking jam.
>When did you first discover furries?
I stumbled upon some renaporn and eventually the rest of this stuff while trying to download the premium version of Limewire off the free version one day when I was about 14.
Accidentally found a pic of Bowser with a huge dick by matoc soon after when I tried to find the renamon file I'd downloaded before, took me almost two years to just accept I wasn't straight.
Probably would've accepted it sooner if I weren't bi and had been having trouble fapping to women the whole time.

Like many on here I'd always had an innate love for anthropomorphic characters- no idea why, just how I am. I watched the Sonic SatAM and crazy-ass syndicated show when they debuted when I was 7 and eventually began reading the Archie comic as well.
See above
Sonic #25 came out when I was 9 and was already developing that early interest in sexual matters. Being at that age where fucking ANYTHING could get me rock hard, seeing the way Princess Sally was drawn, little tits and all, sent my young mind into a wretched spiral of furfaggotry I have yet to emerge from.
A few years later, just after I began masturbating at 12, I acquired a shitty old computer and 14.4 modem for my bedroom and, getting the thing online without my parent's knowledge, one had the idea to scour Alta Vista for 'animal people naked breasts' or some such shit.
I don't recall the name of the first site I found. It was barely a step up from the typical GIF-laden Geocities crap that was everywhere back then but featured some dude's drawings of a black panther chick with massive tits and a little patch of blonde fur right above her pussy. The downward spiral intensified.
Eventually, I discovered more furshit, found Fatalis and Kye Sempai on Skunked (and Fatalis, mmmmmm, rule 34 long before we called it that), then VCL and Yerf and Spazfox's site talking about this whole furry fandom (which he apologized profusely for when I ran into him at AC in '05).
But, the damage was done and I was on my way to becoming the degenerate bi-fag I am today.

I was searching for fiction on the web when I was 8 or 9 or 10 or so, because I was running out of things to read at the library.
I looked on the now-dead Google Web Directory and found a site with a long list of (fantasy/scifi?) fiction which was published on the web.
(Most of it wasn't furry.)
The things I read from that site had a huge impact on my personality. Mostly positive, I think.
Given that this was web fiction, I think it may have been more contrarian and weird than the typical mainstream published fiction.
In particular, one thing I read was "The Human Memoirs".
http://en.wikifur.com/wiki/The_Human_Memoirs
tl;dr real-world human male transported into medieval world with cat furries and no humans, has relationship with cat furry female, eventually sexual
Pretty good story actually, if you trust the judgment of a young child... I haven't reread it.
Anyway that is how the seed of furry corruption was planted in my brain.
Some years later, when I found 4chan, I encountered furry porn and liked it.

Been into furry shit for a while, started really with The Lion King, started browsing TLK:FAA around 2002 or 2003, eventually stumbled upon furry shit (knowing the phrase from the MTV special), started getting that (and some zoo shit, which I was also interested in even before the furry shit), at a friend's house.
Got my own DSL connection around 2005, got pretty much anything I could from Direct Connection hubs. Been passively lurking since. I knew at the time the guy who created TLK:FAA was also involved with ASB, through some simple deduction skills. Kept most info regarding who I knew as a furry and other things on the DL, just as common courtesy.
Like others here, don't go by the sparkle-dog line of thought to being a furry, just have a love of animals (more than most), and was always interested in good art of animals, and there's plenty of good artists that can draw in this fandom, so I stuck around.
For you fucks who wanna know what my child parts were about, saw HBO soft porn when I was 8, been touching myself since, thinking about both boys and girls, and being with people older than me. Started popping boners at 10, came the first time a year later.
Simple fuzzy porn could get me off like 4 times a day at first, then found the amazing world of Wild Discovery shortly thereafter, been fapping to animals ever since. Went from being able to fap to females to pretty much only males pretty quick, you can thank shitty nurture, as well as finding most women in porn not being into it for that.
For me, furry is pretty much zoo-lite with some cub thrown in. You don't have to agree, and any refute can be choked up to pure denial. Everyone else is just commercial trash cashing in on the money-train of hype.

Yeah. I'd get a lot of hate from people when I tell them how I really am. Furry is just a replacement for bestiality, with added cuddling... because dogs don't really love on you after they knot your ass; and my attraction to shotacon just patterns my childhood experiences with other boys and wanting to sort-of relive that.

I would have done stuff like that, but all my friends were pretty dumb and unimaginative. I blame the N64. "Playing pretend" was something for little kids, anyway; grew out of that sort of thing by the time we were 10-11. We didn't need a reason to have sex on a pretext of it being some kind of role-play, we just did it because it was fun.
I saved all my own private childhood fantasies and universes and write original novels based on the good ones. Forgive me if I feel this might be a shade more imaginative than a gigantic Tiny Toons fanfiction.

A universe that has its genesis in fanfiction never stops being fanfiction. You can change the characters, try and change the themes or tone, change whatever you want, but you can't undo the fact that it started as a kid's fantasy based on a cartoon show. It's fundamentally still that. You can't retcon it away. All you're doing is adding a skyscraper on top of a foundation that was made to hold a playhouse; eventually it's going to collapse in on itself.
Trust me on this, anon. I've been through the same thing. In my late teens I came up with an extensive plot for a comic book I was going to draw with some friends, in an extremely anime style. I eventually restyled the whole thing into a plot more befitting a long novel, but the problem was that it was still kiddy shit. It was still an extremely convoluted alternate-universe (with original characters) shounen anime fanfiction. You could take any of the themes or characters or plot points and stick them into Naruto and it wouldn't seem out of place. Oh, and I tried to rework the characters so they weren't so trope-y, tried to make the plot more "adult" by adding in darkness and edginess, tried to make the themes more about overcoming internal demons and social adversity than a simple black-and-white power struggle between the good guys and bad guys... but none of it worked. It still felt like anime. It now just seemed like I'd ripped characters and plot points out of real novels and put them into Naruto. Worst of both worlds. Eventually, I had to scrap the entire thing (literally years of work and worldbuilding) and start from scratch. I got to reuse some of the characters and the very basics of the plot, but it's going to be a while before there's enough to actually make something worth writing about again. It won't be nearly the same thing.
Now, if your only intention is to just fuck around and have fun with a silly universe you have nostalgia for, until you reach middle age and drop all creativity like most people do, by all means: go ahead. Just realize that you're going to look at all that shit ten years from now and cringe, and silently hope it got deleted from wherever you posted it. "Rabbit with a fire-sword", and such. But if you're actually serious about creating an enduring adult universe (that is actually mature and not just teenager edgy), you should start something from scratch instead of adding onto this one thing all the time, and hoping the cartoon tropes and themes don't spread into it like a cancer.
Basically, you can't make a kid's story into an adult one just by adding
>war, love, magic, death, relationships and sex
because you can find all those things (at least: a child's/teenager's immature interpretation thereof) even in original young adult fiction --- Harry Potter, for an easy example. Reminds me of the old joke about a college student who was required to write a short story that contained "religion, royalty, sex, and mystery" and he sent in a story that read only: "'Oh God,' said the Queen, 'I'm pregnant! I wonder who the father is.'" and of course — because this is a joke — received full marks. In reality, things are a bit more complicated than that.

(Imageboard post-length limits are the bane of my existence.)
To point, really I don't want you to waste yourself. If you started as a little kid coming up with this big fanfiction universe, you're a good decade ahead of the average "creative" person, looking at a metaphorical creative intelligence; where a "CQ" of 100 is writing My Little Pony smut and 180 is Tolkien, you'd be like 150-ish. You're several standard deviations above the average already, and with a potential for more. But the longer you cling to this silly little universe you made as a child, the longer it's going to hold you back. The universe that was built to hold cartoon characters and naive worldviews and simple plots is going to demand that you keep creating things like that, you'll be creating inferior things simply because they "fit" into what you've already made. Oh sure, it'll keep getting better over time, but slowly. You will end up losing that advantage you started with as a child and trend to mediocrity.
It's just like with realistic artwork: you have to start with the proper fundamentals. Just because you've been drawing things since elementary school doesn't mean a thing if it's all childish symbolic interpretations. All that's happened is you've become extremely talented at sugarcoating really flawed artwork; you can draw beautifully rendered people that have rubber skeletons and uncanny-valley anatomy. In reality, you'll quickly fall behind someone who didn't start drawing until college, but who learned how to do things correctly from their first day. At some point, you're going to have to realize that you've been doing it wrong (because you didn't know any better) and now have to start from the bottom again if you want to exceed your current level. If you have talent, it will be a much quicker path than for most, but that doesn't change that it's one you have to go down.

You don't listen very well, when I told you that by middle school I left Tiny Toons behind I thought you would get the hint. You did not so I responded with the bait pic.
I've already been through everything you typed up years ago and started from scratch more than once depending on the story. The only lasting effect Tiny Toons had on me was the appeal to unnatural colors, and that's true for effecting all of the entire furry fandom in general. Before the Tiny Toons era people wouldn't even think about having a blue or pink rabbit, or a purple skunk ect. Disney or Warner animal characters were much more natural fur colored. So in effect Tiny Toons was the proto-sparkledogs but thank god I skipped the later sparkledog trend entirely. When I started to take art classes then even the rainbow spectrum of fur colors lost a lot of appeal unless it's got a purpose like color theory and good design. Hint: neon glow furshit like the radioactive nuclear-furry in Wolfynails art is even dumber and childish than the original Tiny Toons cast and horrifically bad design.
Tiny Toons LARPing is what got my gears going as a kid but that's well in the past and it's just something funny for me to look back on, and even then it wasn't fanfiction like I'm 1 person typing up everything in the dark when it was very organic bouncing ideas back and forth in real time. You're right there was PLENTY of cringe which is why retcons, redos and new universes happen. Still does not change the fact that I would likely not care about world building if I didn't branch off Tiny Toons to my own world as a kid, and get my friends heavily invested in it, the organic style of LARPing branched into RPs and a lot of times story lines would carryover and we would go back and forth between LARP and RP, the main tool was to use the imagination and that was the same. I always enjoy "channeling" the characters as I get invested in them. I still remember actually tearing up as I RPed a character in a sad heart breaking scene.
For the first universe, I have my own reasons in the lore why there's a rabbit associated with fire but that's a non-issue because if I showed it to you before talking about the Tiny Toons thing then you would never know how it started with a little kids dumb imagination. Picking out any ounce of Tiny Toons from it when theres maybe 2 or 3 characters that are loosely based off them (you can base characters off personality traits as well it doesn't have to be a carbon copy) out of 100 is beyond unlikely. It doesn't take place in the Tiny Toons universe by any stretch and characters were rewritten or redesigned from the ground up, so it's not fan fiction.
Sorry but you're wasting your breath trying to act like you're giving me a lesson or a warning, it's comical to me since I've already been there and done that. I've already separated it from the original material as far as possible where it's unrecognizable if you compared the two and that universe is only 1 of many I have under my belt. This sort of thing happens all the time even with working in fan-games where people make a fanwork but eventually separate from the initial IP and start to build their own. Sometimes it's very obvious where the inspiration comes from like how Freedom Planet started as a Sonic fan game but at the end of the day even if it's stylistically Sonic, the FP universe is completely different.
The world building I've done though is not even in the same vein as Tiny Toons and no where near the same genre, Sure there was a point where I imitated the look as a kid like any schmuck drawing copycat anime styles but that did not last long. Now they're incompatible with each other, one is a children's comedy show and the other is part of an epic. So trying to make an assumption that "fundamentally it's still Tiny Toons" is just so... SO stupid.
What I typed up is just a snarky way of how I ended up a furry. All the stuff about war, love, magic ect still does exist, but I never said it was mashed into 1 arc or even 1 story. Backstory and the cultural history of the universe is a thing you should know of and put to use in world building and in order for characters to have children sex must be involved, derp.
Your attitude on 100% original material looks very ignorant to me, how many times have we seen stories or themes get told and retold with a new fresh spin? You're aware both DBZ Goku and One Piece Luffy are based off the archetypal character of the Monkey King being a powerful purehearted goofball right? That's what you should focus on, putting your own viewpoint to spin on conceptual ideas, if you just stress over how to be totally unique 100% of the time you will get nowhere fast. It's much easier for someone to take a starting point to launch off of than to think up something completely unique and that's just what Tiny Toons was to me and my friends.

By the way in his defense, at least in regards to sci fi, I personally find any furry universe with uplifts more believable than the many ones where somehow intelligent life occurred independently on >9k different live-able planets and all within the exact same timeframe of a few thousand years tops. The odds of life from a single live-able planet evolving, advancing and genetically engineering wildlife from their own homeworld to create alternate intelligent life with different skillsets for any of several reasons are just much, much higher.

Don't put words in my mouth. I said "take you seriously". Nobody takes Twilight seriously, either, but it was still absurdly successful. The only noteworthy normalfag anthro character in recent memory in an adult-oriented work was Rocket Raccoon, and he was literally the only furry in the entire movie. I guess Chewbacca kinda counts, too, but it's also the same thing: 99% human cast. Everything you mentioned is EXTREMELY niche, and with the exception of Maus not even "artistically" valuable (and that one only because muh World War 2; if it have been about sentient fucking cotton balls it would still have been critically acclaimed because critics eat up anything with holocaust metaphors). And none of it is a goddamn rabbit with a fire sword, either. You can't even SAY that without thinking of a cartoon.

The fact of the matter is that people care about people, and less about non-people. This is why when you read a book, its assumed that the characters are human beings unless noted to the contrary.
Except for you,
You write tiny toon fan fiction and have delusions of grandeur and cannot accurately self-assess your work.
You're never going to write anything of value, yet you harp on about being incredibly imaginative.
Write a story about a character based on yourself. a sad man who views the world through the lens of a cartoon.

Your logic is flawed and based on your own bias. The only reason you associate animals with kids material is because that's what you've been exposed to. So you're basically a sheep being led around how to think.
You cant argue out of a wet paper bag, let alone win any debate here. Tone is what decides what the intended audience is, and if we're talking visuals then art style is what reinforces it. You're so quick to jump onto Disney as your only defense that it's for kids YET didn't even cross your mind into how the stories Disney uses are reinterpretations of much darker tales. And then we have even more reinterpretations outside of Disney's own animated films that attempt to turn "Disney stories" into gritty reboots as epics. Funny how that works huh, that general concepts used in a different way can have wildly different audiences.
So once again! Stop trying to give anyone advice, you are a retard child. It's you that won't amount to anything because you're too busy stuck in thinking in the mold already laid out for you.

For the record, the highest grossing movie adjusted for inflation, featuring a primarily anthropomorphic cast, is Disney's 101 Dalmatians which is 12th. If you go unadjusted for inflation it drops down to Finding Dory which is 23rd. It seems furries are getting LESS popular over time.

All the money goes to the director/producers and the big-name VAs. The other several thousand people who work on the movie make slave wages. It doesn't matter what you create. Once you become popular, people will throw millions of dollars at you just for bringing that popularity into their project. The trick is becoming popular in the first place, and I'd bet dollars to donuts that nobody in the world ever became popular after spending their childhood dry humping friends while pretending to be Babs and Buster Bunny, and later calling it LARPing in a futile attempt to cover up the existential shame.

Holy shit now here's a story if I've ever told one. So here goes.
I started out as a normal kid. Into tits and kinda confused about what the appeal of pussy was but I was 9 so I didn't even know. Of course I had a fantastic grasp on what sex was because my dad didn't give a shit if I watched awful shit like Family guy or Robot Chicken with him. In fact it might be partly Robot Chickens part that Im into what fetishes I am now but I'll explain that in a bit. So I'm sneaking around on the family computer when I can, watching normalfag porn with bad actresses and amazing racks. "Big" was something that just seemed awesome to me. Then I remember a sketch from Robot Chicken about Punky Brooster and how after being a cruel bitch to her weird closet furry that he made her tits grow too big for her own liking. By this point my previous antics had been found out and I was banned from the family computer for virusing the fuck out of it. Also around this time Ive gotten a DSi which has the internet browser on it. I then soon discovered that our internet had parental controls on them so no porn for me. So what I did was I went outside and sat next to the NEIGHBOR'S houses and I used their UNPROTECTED internet to look at still images of porn on my DSi.
Now with that Punky Brooster sketch in mind I started looking up things like "huge tits" and "growing boobs" which led me to that once wonderful site pawsru.org by complete accident! There I found the fantastic artworks of Gideon and those giant hermaphroditic babes he always drew. Now being a persistent kid I just ignored the dicks and stared at the giant tits, but over time I wanted more because I had already seen all that pawsru had to offer in the way of "BIGGER IS BETTER." From then on I believe I stumbled my way onto Inflatechan where even bigger things awaited me. Of course I found more tits as well as dicks but by this point I was comfortable with dicks. So much so that I actually liked them.
>Mfw I realize this now
At the same time I also get into inflation fetishes so yeah...
From there on I discovered e621 and eventually Furaffinity where I reside happily with my own account, ignoring the community, and just looking at porn. Not only that but my tastes in art have refined themselves and now I am an incredibly finicky priss when it comes to porn. I like the motto "BIGGER IS BETTER" but you wont find me fapping to giantesses or rubber pool toys any time soon.
Oh yeah i almost forgot to mention that Im now bisexual BUT HOLY FUCK DO I LEAN TOWARDS DICKS.
>Also mfw when I saw this
Thank goodness Im not easily depressed because if I were then I would be as sad and self-depricating as most of the people Ive seen on this website. LIFE IS JOLLY FOR ME.

Insecure about this, to this day.
Starting middleschool, I was literally too shy to fap to regular porn since they were real people out there somewhere. Literally, as soon as my imagination put some life into the image, my own introvertness would kill my boner.
Fantasy takes the wheel. Hentai wasn't attractive. The huge eyes are uncanny. I still hate the fucking baby-asian face to this day. Furries sidestepped basically everything, and the faces weren't uncanny like hentai. Fetishes specific to furries were picked up along the way. Then I became semi-dependent on furry porn for specific things. Sharp/angular faces and heads, paw-hybrid hands w/ partial pads, those big-toed werewolf style feet, semi-digitigrade's big compensatory thigh muscles. There's something embedded in the back of my head, collections of converging angles relevant to aesthetic beauty.
Now I fap almost exclusively to furry porn, find normal porn boring as fuck, and humans really kind of fugly.
Porn in your impressionable years is a hell of a drug.
Thank fuck I didn't pick up a fetish for hentai's underaged themes. One middleschool buddy did, and he turned out creepy as fuck because of it.

So basically I read a whole bunch of Animorphs books as a kid. Then I became super obsessed with bats at around age 11, after listening to a book on tape of Silverwing and having a dream about it. The seeds were sown.
Then I started playing some shitty MMO with a reptillian race and I was all like "oh cool, I can play as some kind of lizardman." So I did! I started to find out about this "furry" thing and thought it was pretty cool. This is way before I started wanking, because I started wanking about a month before my 20th birthday, because I guess I have brain problems or some shit.
Then in Fall 2006 I discovered Encyclopedia Dramatica. I got a strong impression along the lines of "people who are like you are super pathetic in every way, only valuable for laughing at, and should definitely kill themselves." Naturally, I thought "shit, I need to stop being kind-of a furry, and I also need to stop being such an assburger."
I started lurking 4chan in early 2007 and joined up with the Patriotic Nigras (later another "anti-furry" organization called the FCTC). This was a bad move, as it exposed me to loads of furry art.
Since I was lurking 4chan, I then discovered Ruby Quest. To me, it was so creative and so unique to have an interactive webcomic like that, and I loved the lore. That brought me to /tg/chan.
On /tg/chan (this was around 2009-2010), despite still trying to be an "anti-furry," I was very impressed by all of the worldbuilding. BiteQuest, Crowmanticar, and Journey Quest in particular were super creative. I also saw the good sense of humor they had at the time. I was pretty much full-blown closet furry at this point, saving TF images every now and then.
With the quality original content on /tg/chan, I started to think "Hey, maybe being a furry isn't so bad after all. These guys seem kinda cool. I even aspire to be like them! Maybe I can let myself be a furry."
AND THEN in January 2011, at age FUCKING NINETEEN, I finally took up wanking.
And the rest is history.
You know, /tg/chan is the reason I want sergals to bang me, and it's also the reason I've been learning to draw. I'm kind of amazed at how much that site influenced me now that I think of it.

Unfortunately furries have no cheekbones 99% of the fucking time. Damn shame. You can crank cheekbones up to 11 on long faced furries and it doesn't even have the problem of laugh-lines like on humans.
It's basically cramming as many ~30 degree converging angle pairs as possible to construct a head, then, if possible, applying the same thing to the rest of the body/pose (EG, it's possible to do this within certain styles of paws as well). Typically certain styles of "werewolves" have the most.

I'm a diagnosed autistic, got diagnosed when I was six. I've always related to animals better than humans. Reading Calvin and Hobbes as a child, I was immensely jealous of Calvin's relationship with the big cat, and I would become very angry when Calvin was mean to Hobbes, which was often. Sometimes the panels where Hobbes and Calvin would hug would make me cry because I wanted an intelligent cat to love me, too.
From that point on I've always had an unhealthy relationship with cats. I'm obsessed with them. If there was a burning building, I would save a 20 year old cat that's going to die anyway before I would save a human infant whose life hasn't even started yet. I own three cats myself.
Sexually, my earliest memory is when I was 6-8 years old or so, and I was watching Dragon Ball Z. One of the episodes where Goku was fighting in those intergalactic master martial arts tournaments had him fighting a bara anthro rhino alien, and Goku was losing badly. He had to resort to cheap shit. He kicked the rhino in the balls. It made my penis feel funny and butterflies fluttered in my stomach and I thought about it often. Now, I jack off to ballbusting.
When I was 12, my friend jokingly showed me some of those shitty Brazilian cartoon porn sites that're clickbait as fuck and filled with malware. The Family Guy and Simpsons porn I just found humorous, it was the rare anthro I was interested in. That was the same time I discovered masturbating. I have been jacking off to anthros and ferals my whole life. Humanshits have never done anything for me whatsoever. I appreciate the human physique in the same way one would appreciate fine arts, but they aren't sexually stimulating for me. That is to say, I like Ryan Gosling's face and if I were a sculptor, I would like to do a bust of him. But kissing him? Sucking him off? I would rather fuck his pet cat.

You know, I think a valid reason for being a furry can just be 'being born in the 80's'
I mean, honestly, did we have a chance? In fact I think it's more appropriate for someone born during that time to explain how the hell they avoided becoming a furry.
I mean, at the very start of it you had the Care Bears, which seem custom made to introduce the concept of non-human creatures having thoughts and feelings. That's what I watched as a toddler. Then you have the Don Bluth wombo combo. Secret of NIMH, American Tail, All Dogs Go to Heaven. Heck I'd even argue that The Brave Little Toaster helped kids compartmentalize the idea of non-human things having human qualities.
Then of course came the disney afternoon. I never got why I liked Gadget or Rebecca Cunningham. They were the girls after all. Now tomboy gearhead and sweater MILF make all to much sense.
So, really, when the internet started one of the very first thing I went out to find was if people liked anthro stuff as much as I did. Turns out there was.

I miss the aesthetic of browsing webrings, but i definitely wouldn't call the art higher quality. What's more characteristic of those days is its amateurish DIY nature. Everybody had to build their websites from the ground-up so you would get more of a glimpse into that person's work and mindset as opposed to a standard gallery. Nowadays you have way more people doing furry art and as a result the quality has gone WAY up on average. It's not as amateurish and off-the-cuff anymore. Even the most famous 90s artists like EWS make pretty "meh"-tier work by today's standards.

It's such an efficient helicopter that you wonder why there isn't an assault variant.
I'd replace those guns with a 25mm Bushmaster and two 7.62mm M134s (one on each side).
(25mm is anti-material and 7.62mm is anti-infantry, so there's no need for .50BMG on the sides.)
The rear shouldn't have a gun because it's the loading bay. It would get in the way more than help.
The 40mm grenade launcher can't be in that position as it risks hitting the ground during landing.
I would raise the position and replace it with a 2x TOW launcher.
The idea is that it's a 'broadside assault' design.
The TOW is only needed for attacking tanks on the port and starboard.
The backblast does not allow for forward use of the TOW.

That's what I figure. Also thanks to its high lift capacity, it could reasonably be armored up.
Considering how our current AC-130s are pretty much always on mission, as everyone wants what is effectively artillery in the sky, you'd think a lighter, cheaper, more plentiful version what still packs a heafty pucnh would be ideal.
I blame the lack of 'em more on the Airforce trying to get a bit of a monopoly on CAS, and the Army generally getting the short end of the stick on money and modernized equipment.

In 1997, a friend gave me a floppy disk containing some porn. The contents were a bunch of generic anime-ish women in that cliche hentai location, the school gym store-room, tied up with jump ropes... A drawing of Belle riding Beast, a copy of which I still have... and one pre-hyper Doug Winger picture, of Minerva Pink attempting to blow a stallion.
At the time, my parents had America Online, and I was just starting to figure out chat rooms. AOL had a whole string of roleplaying chats in a Medieval setting. I had some generic wizard guy, who just sat around looking magical. Hey, I was 17. I looked up "Doug Winger," and ran across some long-gone furry archive site; 15 years ago, I knew the name. The first artists I found whose work I liked were him (the pre-hyper stuff, anyway) and Todd Sutherland, aka Scout.
A year later, in an AOL roleplay room, I met and began talking to a guy who played Balto, the Don Bluth character. Within a week I had a quadruped wolf, and within a few months I had a modified version of Justin from "The Secret of NIMH," who was a regular in the AOL chats until around 2004.
I went to the San Diego Comic Con with said Balto player in 2000, and did so for about six years. My first furry con was the tiny CritterConDiego 3 in 2002, which ran concurrently with the Comic Con, at which I met both a girl I dated for about a month, a guy I later dated for at least 8 years, and the late, great Stalking Cat, an amazing first-ever fur con.

Honestly I still don't consider myself a furry, but you furfags have the best artists, and I have an irrational fear/hatred of real women. Plus I can more than understand the feeling of being uncomfortable in your own skin.

I want to say I was 11 or 12 at the time. It was either shortly before or after 9/11, I'm not sure. I'd just recently got my own computer specifically so that I could play Morrowind on it. I was (still am) something of a fan, but what really attracted me to it was the editor that it came with, so I of course went online looking for mods. I loved MOG*MOD and the Pharlans and other classics like that, but something that really stuck out to me was AlienSlof's Better Beasts. I didn't like it, wouldn't use it use LizTail's instead but I saw the penises and I saw the boobs and I was like "oh my."
Naturally, being such a very good Christian, I disapproved strongly, and I disapproved even further when I found AlienSlof's website and discovered that she wrote degenerate pornographic fictions involving Argonians, Khajiit, and vampires. I certainly disapproved quite strongly when I found a fiction about a male khajiit fucking a female argonian complete with a relevant illustration of the two about to fuck in a boat. I disapproved stringently. My penis, however, did not. I had my sexual awakening to Argonians and Khajiit, ladies and gentlemen. I am the new generation of degenerates.
Also, not gay. I might be reading stories written by a woman who loves dick, but I'm not gay. And sure some of the pictures I'm looking at have a dick but no ladies in, but I'm still not gay. I can't be gay, because I'm a good Christian!
Unfortunately the fiction and the illustration appear to have been removed from AlienSlof's website and fallen right off the Internet, presumably because she purged all of the co-author stuff and other peoples' stories so she could dedicate the site to hosting her own stuff. Unfortunately many of the victims of this purge were most of her delightful stories about Khajiit and Argonians, replaced instead with cringey edgelord vampire nonsense and a couple of tasteful human/xenomorph stories
Anyway, from there it snowballed into a full-on interest in feline women and lizard women but frustratingly I had trouble finding more. I think at the time I was too stupid to figure out how Google image search worked and I didn't want to rely too much on it because it kept giving me beastiality and that wasn't what I wanted. I did eventually stumble onto YiffStar and that slated my lust until eventually the good Christian part of my brain started freaking out about eternal damnation and shit and I managed to keep it at bay for a while.
Then I started actually socializing on an IRC channel, made a bunch of friends. At least one of them was a furry when she came in; I don't know about the rest. She was adorable, however, and she was looking for love, and she quickly started seducing people over to the furry team and offering to do Sonic sprite recolors for us. In our defense, furries were kind of a meme at the time, and we were just happy to have a fun community activity we could participate in. Eventually I did ask her for a sprite recolor, and we became friends and she introduced me to this whole other circle of friends who dragged me into their degenerate furry shit.
From there it spiraled outward somewhat. I was finally on a website where I could explore my sexual curiosity for animal-people in full. I started getting into some truly degenerate shit when I tried doing some writing on the subject, but found to my frustration that FurAffinity does not make a good basis for the setting for the next American novel, so in truth most of my furry community activities basically amounted to designing and redesigning a fursona over and over again. I did eventually attend FurFright (2013, I think) but I got busy with college and slowly my interests started to dwindle. Not just my interest in furshit, but my interests in everything: Video games, books, movies, everything got pushed to the side trying to get through university.
Unfortunately I didn't fit in with my friends very well. After all they're degenerate furry pornography creators and consumers, and I'm such a good Christian, so long story short no one in either of those circles of friends will tolerate me anymore save for two, one of whom is my boyfriend. I think the good Christian part of my brain eventually gave up and decided "it's fine, you can be gay, I'm sure Hell isn't that bad." People are always very surprised to learn how long it took for me to learn I was gay, but shortly after that clicked in my brain I lost interest in girls entirely and started consuming gay shit exclusively.
Funny enough, actually, while those old fictions from the year 2000 did excite my interest in furries they also quickly taught me to hate vampires. Never understood the appeal in them. Fucking cats, that's one thing, but vampires? Ghouls.

Embarrassingly, I only remember this because I recall the first time I ever found a 3D girl hot was about one year after I started masturbating. Much to my surprise, I got a massive boner from the musik video to "Kelis - Milkshake". But the first time I ever fapped to 3D was the girl from "The name of the Rose".

It was probably around 2008 or 2009. I never fapped to regular porn. Seeing people's naked form made me feel really uncomfortable. I had a pretty big obsession with werewolves when I was younger and thought it would be funny to see if werewolf porn existed. In hindsight I knew about rule 34 so it shouldn't have come as a surprise to me but it did. I was expecting to find mostly men in wolf suits fucking women but a majority of it was furry art. The art led me to find Encyclopedia Dramatica, which led me to discover imageboards, which led me to where I am now. Overall it was a net postive. I just wish it didn't turn me into a fucking faggot.

I first discovered furries when a friend of mine informed me about them, or just after that when I started browsing 7chan. My initial reaction was one of shock and rejection, especially with the prevalence of extreme fetish shit on /b/ (or at least I found it extreme at the time). Spent a long time mocking furries (not openly. I'm not a bully, I should hope) and thinking less of the content, creators, and consumers.
Flash forward to later, and I don't remember what happened first. I either bought a dragon dildo out of curiosity about anal play, or I started fapping to Pokémon. Not the usual like Lucario and lopunny, mind you (although there was some Gardevoir mixed in there). No, I was determined to be different, so I started with Sneasel. Looking back, it made sense. I really liked Midna when I was younger (first Vidya crush?), and I think that influenced my tastes a lot for awhile.
But yeah. Eventually, I end up jerking it to full blown furry. It's weird, too, because I had never done that with straight up gay shit before, and that's the first furry I fapped to, was Slyus, I think.
Nowadays, I know more about my tastes. I really like kemono because I guess I'm just a natural weeaboo. Anime aesthetics are one of my favorites. You can take almost anything and make it anime, and there's a chance if I didn't like it before, I would then. Bleedman's shit may be cringey as hell, but some of his designs really appealed to me. But anyway, kemono is my favorite, and my favorite artist is probably Rady. Their stuff is just perfect to me. A lot of it is really pretty, but it's clear from some of their drawings that they can do sexy, too.
Sorry for the length. I've never been good at being concise.

Circa 2006-2007
Was browsing halfchan/b/ on Furry Friday when I stumbled across a gfur dump. I entered to do my part and counterdump Angry Marines / Yiff in Hell memes, but fate had other things in store for me.
Until that point my only exposure to furry was roleplaying faggots, disgusting suiters, and horrifying art of Sonic etc.
The OP had a Hardblush image of Marty sucking a fat horse cock.
This was the day I learned three things:
>I'm Bisexual
>traps turn me on
>furry porn has the best looking / sexiest cocks
At this point I joined the Aurora Furries webchat and started participating in Furry Friday "raids" (when fur was actually saged and despised on /b/ anyways)
From there I discovered u18chan, e621, and furaffinity. The rest is history.
I still despise suiters and roleplay though.
