Default How often would you go fursuiting?

I'm curious as some people seem to fursuit all the time where as others only seem to fursuit at special occasions such as cons

I would say as Often as possible on this one as I have been having so much fun doing in my first go around with the Eagle Suit: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/2956334/ I can't wait to get back out there and do it again.

Your suit looks like the big brother of Featherwind

And I would love to wear my suit as often as I can, permitting I'm allowed to wear it wherever I go (damn malls).

As much as wearing a suit as much as possible would be really fun, There is the fact taken into consideration of course, The public, And, The majority of the public would either take it badly, Or be completely freaked out,
Hell.. Knowing this day and age you could get beaten up for wearing a simple collar.

Inside the home and at furry/relevant conventions/meetings are always the best place really,
Wearing a fursuit out in public's a massive risk, Which kind of sucks :\
I'd love to be able to just walk into some ordinary store in a fursuit though and just act casual purchasing something XDD.

Beastcub actually did that; she went shopping in Petsmart in her Purrsnickity suit. :3 There are some stores that don't mind people in costumes, like Petsmart or Walmart. But I would definitely call the store in advance and let them know what you're planning.

Any excuse I can come up with I use. Heck, I'm going to be busy enough on Saturday that I'll probably be in suit all day long. Sometimes, I'll even throw it on at home when I'm bored.

Reasons, you ask? *evil laugh* I have no reason!!! Muhahahaha....

I'd suit every weekend if I could. *wistful sigh*

But I recently moved 200 miles away from my mundie friends and have decided against going out alone. I just don't want to risk hurting myself or having some arse-hat throwing a coke at me or something.

But that's what conventions are for!

I love fursuiting. It's the most fun I can possibly have when my boyfriend isn't around. :3

I picked "Once a month," though, because I'm afraid to do it too often. The novelty might wear off, and then I'll be sooooooo bored.

If I had one, I'd just wear it whenever.
Don't have to have a reason beyond "I want to."
Although I'd reserve against it in times of shitty weather and unfavorable circumstance (meaning, fursuit would make certain activities more difficult or it would get dirty or torn easily).

Hmm I see and I plan on going to Midwest Furfest with it. (Along with my Red-tailed Hawk suit I hope) Eagleman is in the Chigcagland aera hmm. Well it has the same Body Suit (Before my Modifications) so I guess they got the Eagleman from Rubies also. The Brown Feet and skin legs on my suit got replaced with Yellow Fur. It's hard to say where the head comes from.

Default Re: How often would you go fursuiting?

I'd go as often as possible..

I have a few friends here where I live that have suits. One of them goes to school with me. He brings it to school and changes when he gets there. No one has ever given him crap about it.

As far as I know, he's worn it bowling, to the mall, assorted stores...

The only trouble I've ever heard of any of my fursuiting friends getting into was one time at a Ren Faire.

Apparently the friend in question wore it to the faire, and was asked to remove the head momentarily because a creep in a mascot costume had been luring children away and molesting them. Once the police saw that he wasn't the guy, they let him put the head back on and there was no problem at all.

But calling in advance to let people know probably isn't a bad idea.

And if you get asked to leave, just leave. -shrug- If a cop stops you, let them pat you down, take the head off, whatever. If you have nothing to hide, I don't imagine it should be a problem..

So yeah, when I get mine, I intend to wear it as often as I can. <3

Default Re: How often would you go fursuiting?

i go out in suit whenever i have the excuse, that being
anime/sci-fi/commic cons
animal related fundraising events
ren fairs
halloween and pre-halloween events (like witchapalooza earlyin october)
xmas events with my reindeer
and i got invited to do a fantasy fair and got free parking/entyr/food and a headless area set up

i don't suit in public at random, i only feel comfortable when there is some obvious excuse for being there, such as with most of the pet fundraisers there are venders and i just get assumed as some one's mascot.

I don't have a fursuit, but if I did, probably not any more often than once a month.

I love my suit, but I don't want to get bored with it. Also I hate having to clean and repair, so once a month is okay with me.
