I'ts just once in a while, but sometimes I like to think about how insanely contrary I am to so much that is thought normal, even along the lines of my own fandom. What really triggered this lately is my latest picture, an alternative design to my original color scheme. It isn't just the black/white colors, it's also that I'm fur but I like 'human bits', I'm herm but I don't like Hyper, exc exc. I understand that so much of my decisions and choices puts me on the very very narrow list of appeal, but then I have to ask myself 'what if I just went with the lowest common denominators?" What if my character was some medium breasted nondescript female fox who's bisexual with a male preference and no certain political-sociological-religious opinions? I can't say I would be very happy with myself, I certainly wouldn't be me. So, Ultimately I just conclude I would rather be so defined that I'm utterly unpopular than to be accepted as some fraud.

I honestly don't want to collect a bunch of friends who share my opinion. If some young-earth creationist or herm-hating fur wants to talk to me and can do so in a civilized manner then I would be glad to. I'm sure we could find some common ground, Of course I deeply appreciate the friends I do have, intelligent and well thought out people I can share good conversations with but don't share opinions completely across the board.

Still, It being Valentines day I would love to find someone I could share my odd self with, but they are not worth sacrificing my oddness for.. no one ever is.

Single and proud, an odd duck and still swimming.
