My parent would kill (not really) me if I wore that button. Already got in trouble for being on this forum. But I still do it under their noes!

They yelled at you for going to FAF? Kind of odd
Do they not have like, better things to worry about

I wasn't really yelling is the "we're worried about you" type of thing. And apparently not.

I'd be worried too if my kids were on this forum.

I've never really known anyone to have the "coming out" experience, much less admit to me that they were furry. Or exhibit any real furry-ness. I've drawn cartoon animals since I was little and played with my stuffed animals like they were dolls, so the furry fandom was just sort of the next step. My boyfriend doesn't mind be being furry at all, and defends me valiantly when his brother teases me for being a freak (his brother isn't wrong...).
Well, scratch that. I did have a wonderful friend who came out to me as a transexual AND told me about her fursona at the same time. That was pretty neat.
EDIT: Aaaaaand there were a bunch of kids in my highschool who liked my animal drawings so much that they wanted me to draw them a character. But I don't' think that really makes them furries. Just folks who liked the characters. I had a habit of assigning everyone I knew an animal; something that sort of represented them (think of the Native American totems). People usually had fun figuring out what they were.

But if you were to catch them on here would you have a problem with it?

Depends on the age and if they understand not send pics to the creepy guy asking for them.

Yes that would be correct. I'd be worried about anyone if they did that. I would hope some people would have common sense

hi ilu :>
Sounds like an old dog that I used to have. Especially the part about being drunk and smelling of cigarettes.

In my pre-furry days, my friend just out and said "Are you going to hate me if I tell you something?" "No?" "I'm a furry *fake sob*" "Okay *in one ear, out the other*"
Now I'm berating him trying to find out what species he is. Reply dammit!

Eh, one of the furries I know is sort of a redneck chick. Funny because, if you see her in normal clothes and talk to her, she seems like just another girl. She's skinny, blonde, kind of pretty...
If you see her in jeans, boots, and a camo jacket, she looks like a hick and unlikely to be anything resembling a furry. :U

All the furries I know or have met, its so obvious they are furs its not even funny. Stickers on their cars, on their stuff, they always seem to have SOMETHING about them that screams "Hey look at me! I'm a furry!" Me however...I'm the odd duck out...You look at me, ask me what I do for a living. Talk to me for an HOUR! If you don't outright ask me "Hey are you a furry?" I wont tell you, and you wont even let the thought cross your mind.
Tell me, does that guy look like a furry to you?

That's because being a furry among non-furries makes them a SPESHUL SNOWFLAEK!
I'm the same way, but then, It's not like I suit or go to cons or anything, so the extent of my involvement is pretty much online communities like FA here. Most people I know aren't fail-nerdy enough to go around announcing to everyone what websites they're involved in, so that discreetness is already built-in I guess.

But I'm a bit different, I'm in the process of getting a suit. I go to meets and to cons and hang out with my retarded furry friends. I just don't look like I should be there when I drive up in my nice new F150 wearing my carhart jeans, with my button up dickies work shirt and Fire Department pager and sweatshirt.....I kinda like it this way though, keeps people who I dun want knowing from figuring it out.

If you met me you would think I was a furry either. Hmm... Kid reading a novel drinking coffee in a book store... TOTALLY A FURRY! But at least it'd be easier to notice it if somebody was clearly flaunting being a furry. Haven't met another furry yet. :/

Well sure, but it's not like you're dredging it up at every conversation.
Inside the furry world looking out (at these supposed non-furries), I'm not really sure there's a particular look that I would ever associate with suggesting that someone was in the fandom.

Just meeting most furries won't make you think they're furries.
You make it sound like we don't do things non-furries do. You're not special because you drink coffee and read in bookstores. You're just another furry.
