An actually fair article about furries? WAT?
The comments aren't 100% nice, but then again, did we expect them to be? No. (: But the article is fair and well written.
I approve. :D

Now I'm really bummed I didn't make it :C
But yay for good press! :D
Lol, we're having the whole Charro Days thing down here now, I am SO TEMPTED to put Jersey on and go do all sorts of shenanigans at the carnival XD
LOL YOU SHOULD! It'd be funny, and I'm sure alot of kids would be super excited (for your dislike of kids, small ones are usuially excited about the suits) :D
I really want to, but I have no one to be my spotter since my mom leaves for Vegas tonight :C
Shit, I need to get some of those friends people :/ xD
Anything short of killing them, though I'm sure it'd cross my mind much more than once. XD
Plus I wanna be able to go in my halfsuit, which I'm saving up for. :3
Out of love, of course. :3
And its always good to see well done coverage. The other coverage I saw combined an article and footage and both were biased, unfriendly, and misquoted. They didn't even talk to a bonafied fur, it was a newby teen and her mom. Plus, they ripped off the very copyrighted name of "FurCon" claiming that's what we call all of them. Bad facts all around.
The most recent big con further north though, they got a good segment on tv that was the best I've seen in a *long* time. Absolutely wonderful interviews with furs, suiters, passersby, and locals. Only icky bit was a horse and the standard phrasing of 'what secrets do *you* have', making it sound secretive and possibly perverse. ><
I was happy to see this article, though my mate found it initially and was excited to show it to me. Anyhoo, I'll have to find that tv segment thing.I loves to see furries portrayed in an un-sexual light now and then. :D
Aside from the first lady and her disgust voice/face and the horse who has 'secrets' (cause *that* doesn't sound perverse) it's the most awesome review I've seen. ^..^
