Hobbiest, my life still continues on pretty much the same path it always has with our with out furs.
 
Well I guess I would say I'm a pure artist/art fan, because although I'm not good at drawing, I still like to make my characters on the computer and I write stories about furries too. I wouldn't say I'm just curious though, I've known about furries for a while.
 
I'm a fairly new artist/art fan. I've got a work in progress character, it's a stripey grey and pink domestic cat.
I am not a fan of the porn at all but I don't mind slightly suggestive poses or skimpy lara croft type outfits but don't find any of it attractive, like I said, I'm just in it for the art.

thread tl;dr. Also didn't read OP before voting "pure artist." I'll blame the 1AM.
Is it possible to be a hobbyist that wears a tail in public?
I'd vote hobbyist if I could again.

I think when I graduate and get settled (with my own car, in my own place, and hopefully in a major city), I'll probably start to go more toward "lifestyler" simply because I'll then be able to get more involved.

Lifestyler: even though I don't so much act furry in public, I'm not a hobbyist, I'm not a fetishist, and I'm not really in it for the art. *shrug* I just mentally see furries the same way normal people see humans, so that probably means I'm a lifestyler.

Cute gone horribly wrong
I voted "hobbyist" despite the fact I have elements of life-styler (although I don't wear tails in public, or make a huge deal out of it in IR), since if you walk into my room, it's wall to wall care bears.

And I also have fetishist elements of it. I can't help it. To me: cute = murr. Although I'm far from being zoophile, I rather appreciate the idea of verbally communicating with my partner, on the same level. And I don't own any sex toys.

In short, I'm a mutt of the fandom. I have my own particular reasons for being into it, which is only partially defined by such labels.

Uuuuhhh I guess a casual furry...I dont really wear suits or order commissions to have my character to have sex with every other furries... I'm a furry because I was curious in 2005
 
I'm a hobbiest really. It started with a fascination with werewolves and shape shifting and then i found out about furries. I loved to draw them and i created an alter ego with it.

100% lifestyle, furry is everything to me if this fandom was not around I would have to hang out with the bestiality crowd to get along with anyone. All my friends without exception are furries and I make sure everyone that knows me knows I am a furry and proud as hell of it! I am also otherkin and firmly believe in all the aspects of past life animal spirits and how it effects the way I think and live my life now.

R.O.L. For life!
I have no idea... I love the art, yet i don't live in the life of one, however I have a fursona, and like to meet others of the furry fandom.

Yet I have no desire to make a fursuit or something like that. o_O what the heck would I be considered?

Hurr hurr hurr...
I'm between Hobbyist and fetishist, I have several anthro characters that I roleplay with [sexually] and I have the fursona I identify with, that represents me to the fandom. I'm currently working on a fursuit and I draw and appreciate furry art both fetish based and non, but I keep my fur completely seperate from the rest of my life because I'm still in the closet so to speak.

I voted hobbyist because I'm in it more for the community than the sexual aspects.

Hard to identify which one I should be.
1. I love a furry and if it's possible, I want to be a furry
2. I am an artist and enjoyed by watching sexy artworks
3. I focus on sexually pretty much and do roleplay often also

For me. I think It should be lifestyle+hobbyist+Fetishist.

I'm a hobby/art lover kind of fur. I joined the fandom around ten years back because I like the art that is created within the community. I'll never be a lifestyles because I rather enjoying having a first life, and see hobbies as things that should not go that way.

I'm in it for the art mainly. It was the art that got me into it in the first place.
