safe haven

“And it is still true, no matter how old you are -- when you go out into the world, it is best to hold hands and stick together.”
It's only when you step out of the confines of safe havens like FA and. Babyfur.me do you really start to realise that not everyone sees the world as you do. I have to remind myself of that fact sometimes. I've gotten so accustomed to talking about being an ab and babyfur here that it feels normal.
This came to light last night when I was trying to figure out tumblr and searched the key word babyfurs lol bad move really. A number of pics and blogs popped up ridiculing and generally hating on this subsection of furries lol. So I won't be doing that again but it just made me realise how much of a bubble I had wrapped myself up in.
The bigger wider world is a scary and brutal place and I should be more mindful that if I do wander out there and try to make contact that not all that contact is going to be pleasant. It's an important lesson to remind myself of once in a while. Hehe. So mebbe I'll just stay here where everything feels safe.
I'm glad places like this exist.

at least its not as bad as 4chan... well not by much mind you -.-
Tumblr = used by a great amount of people, its a mainstream website, with people who shun anything not normal.
On 4chan you wont encounter anything like that, everyone is anonymous and you'll always find people who are weird, hell they embrace everything that isn't normal.
Not saying /b/ = 4chan, all other boards are full of hipsters who embrace everything that is non mainstream too.
It's funny, really. Furries don't really like us and AB/DLs don't really like us. I guess even the freaks need their own subfreaks to improve their own self-image.
fucking people.
So, after telling you this boring sciency stuff that I learned in one of my college classes, it's probably a good idea to stay away from tumbler with those search results. Just remember, that only genuine folks care for one another, no matter who or what they may be.
Fur,s shame some are so closed minded . Yet it's like a few that were hating gay person's . I feel us cub's are sentive person's
Our littles are so close to surface but for some they cant let go and be play full because all the time when they were growing up
all they heard was it was bad to act childish you need to be grown up so they were so programed they can't be open to us .
In time I feel it will it will change but meny years just like the gay's have been dealing with. Gem your so kind and nice in this fandom
There are so many that are open minded bless them. Hug's to you all.
>.> I guess this one's made so well we don't really wanna leave XD hehe
come to the furry side.. we have cookies.. *hands you a cookie*
It's sad theres so much hate I'l admit I never searched babyfur there as I am there for pony reasons and really only pay attention to blogs about doctor whooves, derpy or my friends pony ocs so i never realized that was going on there but i guess it doesnt suprise me as its a popular site not just for furrys not even just for artists though what people who dont draw do there is beyond me its normally just reblogging and photos from what i see but point is all kinds of people are there just like all kinds of furrys are hear you just watch your nice safe group and normally only people that like your stuff will come sure trolls happen but they happen everywhere
i wonder if thats even legable i just typed everything as i thought it and didnt reread it lol so its full of rambling about nothing lol
But the reality of it all is for every one thing there is going to be somebody out there to criticize or hate on said thing and in the case with tumblr it is full of normal furries, babyfurs and people who hate furries and babyfurs and will just hate on it and it any case they dont precive it as normal and they themsevfs can do things that they get ctiticed for and that is the big problem is before people do there homework persay the just right to the concision that they have and it the case of furries to then furries = sex and bad. So they have to attack it beacuse the dont understand it and that can be siad about a lot of things. But really we do have quite a bubble here that can be attacked but we just have to keep a positive outlook on things and just ignore people like that.
I dont exactly understand Babyfurs myself, in fact I think its a little odd but there is no way I would insult any of you or call you anything because of what you like or do. The only problem I would have is if it hurt anyone which it doesn't.
I've seen about half a dozen posts mentioning cub or babyfur stuff, though, and the closest any of those got to 'hate' was to say that if these people post any cub/babyfur pictures, it'll be clean ( these were porn/fetish blogs >.///.>" so that's why they said that )
Tumblr being more mainstream and stuff than FA, you'll have more hate, but at the same time, if you do some searching, and sift through it, you should be able to find some good people and good posts and stuff, and maybe find some new friends an' everything along the way :3
And, also, I apologize for usually never talkin' or anything but I'm shy and talkin' makes me nervous, so I usually jus' kinda shoosh an' things x.-.x

Socially, I feel awful in the fact I am unable to actively share this part of myself publically. This site, along with good friends, have really helped me to accept who I am on the inside and I've never been the type to hide who I am. Hiding who I am takes away from my overall personality and makes me feel limited and that is no fun at all.
Personally, FA is my favorite site as it has all I enjoy in a visually impaired friendly package. Other sites aren't quite as friendly. A big example of unfriendly to those of us with sight issues is FaceBook. You'd think the creator, who is color blind, would try to make his site more friendly for those of us with visual disabilities like he has. :(
It is also nice we have "Ambassadors" like yourself to positively represent the Babyfur / Diaperfur community. You have the notariety that makes you stand out and you stand out as a squirrel who is just like your everyday person who just so happens to like wearing diapers and feeling small sometimes. I know, if a time would ever come, I'd be sure to be a positive ambassador for our sub-group in the furry world as I not only want to prove disability doesn't mean inability, but also wish to show how being a babyfur / diaperfur is a coping mechanism that has fairly little, if any, negative side effects. Truly, and I'm sure you'll agree, I'd rather have diapers than drugs or alcohol. :)
