I've never understood why people want to tell others, seems like a trivial thing to risk a friendship over.
Anyone in your family know you're a furry?

Yeah, maybe. I just told my friend (not even my best friend, just one I knew would understand). Basically I sorta hinted at it first, then just told her. Then explained it. She said "thats actually quite cool". It is a great relief. Trust me. =^_^=

Think she'll still feel that way if she finds out about cub porn?
People know I'm quite unusual and eccentric and that I have a lot of strange quirks so, I would have no shame or problem in expressing my like of furry art etc (and nor would those listening have a problem, if you're comfortable enough with yourself, people are more comfortable with you too...plus I'm very particular about not being friends with idiots). However, when it comes to my family, they really don't know much about me generally and I don't think that just sharing genes automatically means they gain "friendship rights" to me; this goes for everything, I just don't talk to them much 
Knowing my mother's mind, she would find it amusing but wouldn't understand at all the reason for the interest or why such a "culture" exists and it'd never be mentioned again (though it would be gossipped about with other family members behind my back)

Cub porn? Whats that?
Lol she's Bisexual herself, and is VERY openminded, so yea, I do think she will feel the same, even if she discovered things like Yiff (She might even like them >_<)
One observation I've noticed is that alot of Furry guys are either gay or bisexual (Myself included). Hm...
Sernion
I see the goal before me
anyone who think Furry is cool is a furry!
Indeed, is it due to greater exposure to gay people? Or that there is actually a lot more variety to sexuality in society than we're led to believe and people feel ok to be honest here? Or do people "discover" in a more open-minded community that sexuality isn't a big deal and become more in touch with their own? Is (widespread) homosexual furry art offputting to straight men and attracting to gay men, leading to disproportionate proportions?
Other reasons? Who really can say? It's somewhat interesting.

Hmm, I myself am a heterosexual male, so I am in the minority, rofl. My guess is that homosexuals do tend to be a bit more outgoing than heterosexuals, and that they don't have that much of a problem discussing being a furry, gay, bi, yada yada. The heterosexual males though tend to lurk, seeing as being a furry is probably one of the oddest things about them.

I'm guessing you have your adult filter turned on on this site. Cub porn is furry child pornography, as in drawings of anthropomorphised children being raped by anthropomorphised adults. Basically paedophiles have discovered that they can use the furry fandom to skirt child pornography laws and the furry fandom out of sheer unfathomable retardation allows them to do so.

How I wish that were true, but it hasn't been since 2006.

It's allowed because furfags lack the testicular fortitude to tell the paedophiles to go hang themselves.

first of all, welcome to the site Hydramon (yea im to lazy to go to the intro thread)
lets just say that my twin brother doesn't even know im a furry, although i think he's on too, he just doesn't know it. my parents don't know, but i could probably tell them and they would accept it, my dad thinks im gay anyways (and he's right). my mom is very open minded so im sure she wouldn't mind. as for my friends i would never tell them. most of if not all of my friends are also my wrestling teammates, so i would catch a lot of shit from them, go figure. plus then they would learn that im gay and would probably kick my ass. don't get the wrong idea, i love wrestling for the sport that it is, not for other reasons. i've come close to telling them, but i don't have the guts to do it.

Aw, sorry to hear about your dad seekerwolf ='(
Anyways, on topic, First day of school after telling my friend. She didnt act ANY differently at all, so yay for me! But one thing I noticed is I kept getting queasy (although it is a really hot day here in New Zealand), and kept getting furry thoughts (which I didnt really have before I decided to join FA and tell Devanshi (my friend)). Anyone else get these symptoms?

It's funny, my folks have seen the art I draw and have even seen the infamous CSI episode but have not put two and two together. So for the most part they are clueless of what furry is. I do have a cousin that is a furry so she is the only one in the family that knows I'm a furry.
Was it one of those "never bring up or mention again" type moments?

Not really, it was some Wolves with the ability to stand up on their back legs, males yiffing the females. They didn't really seem to care.

Both of my parents know. They think it's odd, sure, but they figure it's better for me to be into furries than drugs or heavy partying. I don't draw hardcore porn, so there's really nothing to hide from them. I suppose they're pretty supportive, if anything, my Dad especially. He has some of my artwork hanging in his office at work (though it isn't blatantly furry, just some of my four legged characters) and he even helped me finish a bunch of badges I had to make during a con.
Mom's Christmas present to me last year was a dealers table at RMFC, and she even paid for one of my friends to go with me.
Not sure what they're going to say when my fursuit arrives in the mail though. That will be an interesting day.
