I don't know if I can call it a secret or not. I've never TOLD anyone, but then again I've only just gotten into it. My boyfriend, who got me into it, had been calling me a furry for like 8 months before he actually introduced me to the fandom (I didn't know it existed). It's his dep dark secret. Just the other day I pounced on my friend for giving me chocolate randomly and he litterally said "Just don't purr." I didn't realize how obvious I was lol.

I'm generally pretty secretive. If the circumstances were right (I.e, it'd be very funny) I'd confess. But for now, eh.

i only tell my friends. i tried to tell my mom, but i just confused her. the only one in my family that knows what furry is is my dad, so i don'tbother telling others. actually among myfriends and i there are like six furries, so we all know about each other. my family wouldn't really care about me being a fur though, they're more interested in mebeing gay.

Most of the people I meet don't even know what a furry is. And those that do I don't even run into, or are furrys themselves.

Tbh, I'm not even sure if I AM one. Just depends on your definition. Yeah, I draw anthros (apparently it's a given that furrys are better at anthros and humans... I fall under that rule). Yes, I look at and enjoy viewing anthro art. But I don't fursuit, or yiff, or tf, or any of the various subgroups. So, I don't know... I guess there's just no reason to hide something like that.

I keep it a deep, dark secret because I'm embarrassed about being associated with most of the other people in the fandom

Everyone knows. I wear my furry wrist cuffs and I have a shirt with a fox on it, although I need more furry stuff. My friends and I wore our tails mini golfing a few days ago ^^ it was fun.

Is furry really something to be secretive about?

Ooooh, dont post anymore... you have the sacred number!

On topic: Like i said, only other furries know, but if anyone asked i would tell them. No reason to keep this a secret, just no reason to run out in the street naked wearing nothing but a tail and some ears yelling "OH YES IM A FURRY! LOVE ME!"

Only a few people know who aren't furries.
My family doesn't know there's a fandom at all,
so I suppose they don't know that i technically am a furry,
but they know I like drawing anthro art and stuff.
But, I live in a family of artists, so it's fine.
Usually though I don't tell my friends unless they're also furry,
since many of them don't understand it.
