Furry is being used in the sense of 'Gender Identity'. The artist will likely say they're 'a fan of anthropomorphics', but won't have anything to do with the freaks who wrap their whole lives around it and need to do shit like ride a Furry Float in a Gay Mardi Gras.

minus drawing yiff, my reason is that furries ignore me for not being the kind of massive attention-seeking egotist most furries are.
if i have no furry friends and look on the fandom as an outsider, more like a sociologist than a participant, there's no useful purpose served in calling myself a furry. at best, it conveys a misleading impression.

Unless you're becoming a multi-billionaire, furfags will just laugh at you and all your effort to do all that while pointing out their favorite popufur didn't need to put in any fucking effort at all thanks to their constant sucking up to them.
Even if, you're going to be in a position from where it would be unwise to out yourself as a furry, so either way, furfags won't believe you.

It absolutely is about what someone wants -or rather, what they choose to be associated with. "Furry" could mean anything ranging from somebody who legit thinks that they're a werewolf, to people who jack off to pokemon fart porn, or it could reference those diaper wearing rainfurrest types. I personally don't want to be associated with any of those things. The problem is, that I don't have exclusive control over the label furry, and the term itself can apply to a whole lot of other things (other than the things I'd intend to convey by using the term as a descriptor). That's why it's preferable to be specific by saying things like you're into anthro art or whatever. With something like 'anthro art,' one can make a clear distinction between something like drawing dog people and wearing soiled diapers over dog costumes -not something you can readily do with 'furry.' Yes, most people will still clearly get that you fall under the furry umbrella, but sometimes it's worth making the distinction.
This rejection of a certain label can apply to a lot of other things in life as well. Like you might agree with a lot of things a political party/ideology stands for except for one glaring issue like prayer in school or abortion and for that reason you choose not to label yourself as such.
On the otherhand, there are some legit closeted types out there and it could just be a case of denial.

Again, you really don't have control over the labels other people give you. I mean you're free to go around telling everyone *"no no I am not actually one of those furries, I just like furry stuff,"* but don't expect them to take you seriously or believe you. The average normalfag makes absolutely no distinction.
The same goes for your other examples. Rejecting labels is fine and good but it really is a fruitless endeavour - you don't have to embrace them, but you should at least be able to accept that people will call you many things and categorize you in many ways that are often not true, and that there's not a lot you can do to prevent that.

I know I'm going to get an "AW BULLSHIT" reply form this but one of the reasons I don't consider myself a furry despite drawing furry art all the time is because my attraction goes beyond just anthro animals. I'm like pando Lando. I just want to fuck what I think is attractive Furry, Xenomorph, whatever. People draw the line between yiff and bestiality but honestly if is sentient I'd probably park it anywhere to be honest.
The other reason is I don't really identify as them despite how much it seems like I do. I mean I commisioned a costume head of an animal character and I want a partial that's about as furry as you get right? Well in that case it's less about identity and more about just wanting to play a character just for a week. Not to mention that character isn't even mine.
So yeah I think it's just identity. I'm decently versed in the furry community and joke about being one but I don't really feel like I have one.
Hell it's taking me years to even think of and stick with a fursona and the one I ended up with doesn't really represent me at all. It's cute and its fun to tell my furry friends that this character is me. But it's just an avatar and not a representation that I only keep around because it got fanart

Yeah I wouldn't label myself one simply because I don't participate in the "community". I don't want to go to conventions. I don't want to talk about it in real life. I just wanna look at porn and shitpost on anon boards like this one. For me it's not a lifestyle, it's a particular kind of art that I'll look at once a week. I don't think anyone would give a shit about the label if it was still underground, but in the past decade the fandom has fucking exploded and all it's dirty laundry has been strewn about pop-culture now. When I have younger family members 10+ years younger than me identifying and coming out as furries to their parents, going "nyah OwO what's this!" and wearing tails and shit at family gatherings, there's no fucking way I would ever want to be associated with that. It's the same with anime; ever since lucky star and k-on autism reached viral boiling point I can't like any kind of anime (except dbz and pokemon) without people assuming I'm a pedo.

I get that some people feel the need to differentiate themselves from the really bad aspects of what furries are known to do. But to do all those things >>75270 (OP) listed yet vehemently deny being a furry is completely disingenuous. It deludes people into thinking they're good for not partaking in something worse and fosters an unjustified sense of superiority. Not too dissimilar as these so called right wing furries who are just as into deprived shit as the next degenerate but fancy themselves to be virtuous.
For example, I had friend who would spend all his spare time drawing furry art and jacking off to furry porn. Then when he had realized how bad the aforementioned made him look, he stopped calling himself a furry completely and now only claims he was only ever in it for the art despite continuing to drawin' n' jackin'. I should also mention he now only associates with furries despite gradually considering all furries to be autistic retards; a big shit furry fish in a small shit pond in a sense.

I wish I were young enough to not know about groups like the Burned Furs. The fact of the matter is that furries have always and will always be awful because they're taking what's basically a fetish and making a fanbase and often lifestyle around it and no matter how loud you are you're going to look like massive faggots for trying to make a culture out of a kink.

the problem with this fandom is that it sits on the river of "fan of anthropomorphics" and pollutes it. you want to write Secret of NIMH fanfiction, or worldbuild a planet of foxes fighting a war against wolves, but where do you go to show it off? Well, it's anthro... so furry. Except nobody in furry cares, because furry is a sex club. But fundamentally, furry is labelled as the place you go, so you can't set up another place to share it either.
"[anthro] is just a kink" is basically a statement of how successful furry has been at not only wasting potential, but purging the idea that there ever was potential. such is life after the end of history.

culturally, fuck this tbh. it isn't the bourgeoisie who ruin furry. where the cause is transparently economic it's invariably salesperson artists (someone else can decide whether that's petit-bourgoise or proletariat.) and consumers with too much disposable income and not enough sense. a bit of the bourgeoisie getting mass-production into the fandom would be a good thing by serving as a great social leveller, where the millionaire can no longer exchange financial capital for social capital and the artist vice-versa, and where each individual is allowed to be creative rather than relying on someone else on a social level to put their ideas into action.
as a practical example: imagine affordable mass production fursuits that individuals can modify themselves with basic sewing, rather than the present state of "artisan" fursuits with a huge backlog and the creative elite who build them with no division of labour, which cost far too much to risk screwing up and where modifying them might annoy the builder. the one advantage of an elite would be quality control, and we're sure as fuck not getting that now because they build for money and for social capital.

I've been interested in furries for at least 14 years, and I still haven't made a fursona, commissioned art, or seriously considered buying a fursuit. I honestly think that a lot of fursuits are creepy and not cute, and that furry sites are flooded with bad and sometimes really gross artwork. As much as I enjoy the idea of furries, I'm ashamed to call myself a furry due to the negative reputation of the furry community.
I've hidden my furry obsession since forever, I'm not open about it. I would say that it's split 50/50 in regards to it being a fetish and an honest appreciation for the art form. I have a personal and professional reputation that would both be better off without a furry stigma attached to it. In contrast, I imagine that there are probably some kinky bdsm motherfuckers in corporate executive positions, those people probably don't want their colleagues knowing that they have a mistress/master. In a similar way, furries have been infamous for exhibiting degenerate behaviour for decades, furries probably don't want their colleagues knowing about their weird, sexual-inuendo hobby..
For a furry such as myself, I see three paths. In the first path, I just say, "You know what, fuck it". I proceed to go all-in with a fursona, multiple art pieces, and a high-quality, custom-tailored fursuit, one that actually manages to not look creepy. I try out some local meets and conventions, I meet some cool people who aren't trashy in the slightest, and I have an all-around awesome time while making new friends. Perhaps I'll start creating my own art.
In the second path, I do all of the above exactly the same, except instead of meeting up with civilized, intelligent people, I am met with the dregs of the furry fandom. The absolute worst: baby furs, diaper shitters, vore fanatics, inflation fiends, otherkins, and all of the other mind-numbing stuff as well.. So I end up setting my standards too high, resulting in having to actively avoid gross people, which happens to be more than half the furry community, theoretically speaking.
In the third path I simply choose not to go further with my interest in furries, I progress through life just as I have been, except I'll never know what it's like to be active in the furry community. I can spend more time enjoying my other hobbies and hanging out with my closest friends and family. I might even be avoiding a whole bunch of drama and bad experiences by not getting involved with other furries.
Of course, these are all just ideas, nothing more. Whatever I choose to do, after the fact, it probably won't be as big of a deal as I think it'll be.

It depends on the company culture, it's not like I go around telling people about how much I really like furries.. Also, it's not 100% a fetish. If I do decide to get a fursuit, I'm not really interested in fucking in one, especially if it costs thousands of dollars. If word got out that I'm a furry, my friends would definitely think I'm a freak, but they wouldn't disown me over a hobby/kink.

Also my "scale-sona" is a reptile so I have not fur on my skin then I have another strike I think.
I think I identify myself more with a werewolf but from a lizard's kin, that means we have traditions, cults, rituals, heroes and unluckily myths, dogmas and prejudices but instead you, the furry, only have the most primitive prejudices of the two kins you belong, you have neither human or animal complete behavior.

What if someone made a furry social app catered specifically to civilized furs? Just no disgusting people, ever. Basically, something like ferzu minus the extreme leftist stance, the gross fetishes, and the mentally disturbed individuals.
I would make things simple and logical, like only having two genders and a trans option. Shitposting would be allowed, but extremists would be banned after three strikes of heresy. Anyone who shows even the slightest interest in cub, diapers, vore, or sexualized feral will be banned without warning. I dunno, it's just a random idea that could work, but probably won't.

the furry fandom is a specific subculture interested in anthropomorphic animal characters with human personalities and characteristics. it is not the entire group of fans of anthropomorphic animal characters with human personalities and characteristics. it is perfectly possible to be a fan of anthropomorphic animal characters with human personalities and characteristics without having anything to do with the furry fandom and, if you are sufficiently lucky, without knowing the furry fandom exists.
i'm only here because furry is advertised as the fandom for anthropomorphic animal characters with human personalities and characteristics while actually being a fandom for human egos using animal avatars atop their ayn-rand pornotopia and i've never gotten over my disappointment.

you can have a descriptive meaning of furry, or a prescriptive meaning of furry, but fundamentally language is descriptive unless you're trying to set down a very specific definition for very specific purposes, accepting you can't then turn that definition around later.

You're a fucking idiot. Nature does not create beauty because that's not how nature works. Our minds are instead wired to view nature as beautiful. There is no reason that the nature from some alien world that developed in complete isolation from our own would have the same standards of beauty, and any intelligent creatures from said world would likely find us just as ugly as we find them.

▶ No.86997

The "beauty" we find in nature has nothing to do with ecology, but rather is grounded in mathematics and physics. Fractals, the Fibonacci Sequence, the Golden Rule: all are mathematically efficient and so happen in nature often. Animals tend to have bilateral symmetry because it works, and humans also find symmetry to be beautiful. It would be highly unlikely that an asymmetrical creature would evolve to prominence on any world. For that matter, things like acid blood and huge lidless eyes also make no sense from a basic biological perspective.
That said, any extraterrestrial life is still unlikely to resemble anything from Earth. Considering a situation where they have crossed interstellar distances to get here (for scale, a distance of hundreds of miles compared to about two feet: the distance to the Moon which is the farthest humans have every gone), they would be so technologically advanced compared to humanity that they will be Gods, and however they choose to appear will likely be beyond our comprehension.

Uncle Kage also has a 2nd fursona, Rogue, a macro wolf that's into rampaging, vore, and all other kinds of sexual fetishes involving gore and jacking off onto victims before he eats them. Just read some of the stories he's written, I recall one about a rat that drinks some chemical, then goes on to rape a construction worker and then eat his brain. Another about some otter thing that grows due to some magic box, and shoves an otter up his ass, eats a pregnant otter, rips off the head of another otter and turns it into a necklace, then jacks off onto some otters and then stomps them, and then eats a village of otters, then goes onto invade some other otter village and orders them to worship him as a god.

Depends on why, you gotta find out and attack that. But if he doesn't know you're a furfag already he might suspect something. You might wanna ease him into it with a story about finding out your imaginary friend was a furry and that furries are really great people all along and to give them a chance.

Objectively wrong in that while sexuality doesn't HAVE to do with the furry fandom it is a major enough part of it similar to japan and its pornu/anime industry. It's deep enough that only in a true bubble could they really ignore it.
Depending on how knowledgable they are of the absolute worst of the fandom. They will either fall in naturally just have no desire to go with the furshit label for obvious reasons. Or you could encourage them to be the change needed to properly shape the furfag landscape. But then again it's already tumblr garbage. Might be impossible for one furfag to accomplish.
