do you wear a collar, and why or why not?

[Rilvor]

Well sorry, you could have at least made it sound like sarcasm or put the sarcastic :V to drop a hint.

I have "I make monsters as a passion" in my signature and you believed I was truly deriding people who appreciate such? d.batty got it just fine, so it certainly is no fault of mine. No, I will not use an obnoxious emoticon. That is exactly like explaining the punchline of a joke you just told, and I still feel that people need to stop doing it.

 

[Symlus]

No. Species is not relevant, but in a relationship, I dislike the symbolism of being in a subservient position to my significant other. I just... no.

 

[Batty Krueger]

I only wear mine at meets and cons, strictly as a furry fashion accessory. Anyone that sees someone else wearing a collar and automatically thinks that they must be the sub in a perverted relationship is a fucking moron.

Um... I didn't say anything about monsters at all, I was talking explicitly about collars. I have no idea where you got that idea :/

 

[Nikita.Richtofen]

I wear lots of collors, but I mainly wear them to honor my dogs who have been there in my hard times.

 

[PsychicOtter]

I don't have any desire to wear one, but I don't have any problem with other people wearing them.

 

[Fro.Dog]

I personally wouldn't wear one, but my fursona does. So if I had a fursuit of him I would wear a collar with it, but not outside of it.

 

[Aldino]

Ugh, I've been converted to this... A friend of mine bought me a matching collar with an adorable bell on it for FWA. I only wear it because it matches I swears! Also I would never wear this without wearing my fursuit.

I don't assume that about people with collars, I usually just think they like them for the fashion. I however wouldn't wear one because I know other people might assume things about me.

If I ever got one for some reason I'd probably only wear it at meets and conventions as you said. I think furries would tend to know it's just a furry accessory, and not anything else (unless the wearer says otherwise).

 

[Ryuu]

I'll be wearing my first one to my next rave 0_o

 

[badlands]

there is no going back now Ryuu.

and yes i do have one myself but i wouldn't wear it outside of 'furry' settings

 

[Sarcastic Coffeecup]

I don't have a collar. I don't see why I would. Collars are worn by dogs, and if one has a dog or canine sona I can understand if they want to strut about with it. As for me, sergals and collars? Nope. I don't even like collars or necklaces irl.

Like I said dude, just a furry accessory in a furry setting. No matter what the species may be. :3

 

[Faolan]

I do own two. A plain black nylon collar, and a chain collar. I wear the chain one on occasion. It's mostly a fashion thing, matches quite well with my standard casual dress of blue jeans, white t-shirt, and black work boots. As for the nylon one, that's for my boyfriend to know...

I could make a joke out of this, but I wont out of respect for your righteousness.

Personally, I wouldn't give a damn what people assumed of me if I wore one. I'll do what makes me feel like myself and protect other people who get bullied and made fun of for similar stuff like that. If someone has a problem with it, they can stick it up their ass. And there's a 95% chance I am going to wear one in the future, so I'll be expecting things like that to come.

 

[Zabrina]

I don't have one, but maybe I'll get one some day because you know shrimp.


I wouldn't wear it in public though. I'd be afraid people would see it and say, "Oh, that girl's a sex toy I can dominate."

 

[Kalmor]

I don't like things around my neck, it makes me uncomfortable. Dragons don't even wear collars anyway so I'm not too concerned.

 

[anothersacrifice]

I suppose you could call it a collar. My fiance and I modified choke chains and I wear the promise ring he gave me forever ago on it since my job doesn't allow me to have anything on my hands. I have several tattoos and visible piercings though, so most people don't think me having a chain choker necklace is anything new. I actually get compliments from regular people thinking it's cute. I wouldn't really call it a collar though even though originally it was one.

Dragons don't even wear collars.

But IM a dragon kind of and I'm looking forward to wearing a collar. So yes, some dragons do wear collars

People don't have to wear sandals with socks yet they still choose to.

Yeah, maybe yours does. I guess the collar is just a general furry accessory.

Very true, but when I generally think of dragons, I don't think of them as wearing collars. That's just me.

 

[Sithon]

I want to, but only in private. Which is awkward for me seeing as I live with my parents... and don't have a dog, so have no excuse to have a collar....

 

[Chernobyl-Hybrid]

i like wearing collars.. for some reason it gives me a sense of... security? i dont know the exact word.. but i love collars, i feel so awkward when i dont wear one. XD

 

[Bluey]

IF I wanted a collar I would have been a dog not a wolf lol but since Im such a suc.... for love, only a girlfriend or future wife could tame me for one xD

 

[EloeElwe]

I don't think they make one big enough for me, good thing I suppose.
