What makes being a furry GREAT?
17 years ago
You know what I've decided?
I get a bit tired of hearing about furry drama, people wanting to leave FA, furry hate, etc etc etc, all that malarky that everyone brings up that makes the furry community BAD.
You know what I wanna do instead?
How about make a list of things that make being a furry AWESOME???
Better yet, how about we ALL make a list like that?
THE GREAT THINGS ABOUT BEING A FURRY:
- Cons
- Bringing people together around the world
- Great art and literature (and music, too!)
- IM/RP/Chat/etc. is FUN!
- Plushies are awesome
- There seems to be a niche for everyone
- Some of the nicest folks are furries
- FA is a nice place that's FREE and has a very nice interface, and has an entertaining entourage and management staff
- From the most simple to the most exotic, everyone has a place in the community
- Being a furry helps build tolerance
- We have our own brand of humor
- Despite what the world may think, each furry has their own unique experience, be it a casual hobby to a total lifestyle
Have anything you think should be added to the list? Take what I have so far and either add to it, or make your own list. It'll be sweet!

FA+

- Being a furry can help people discover & explore their own creativity.
I've known so many people who have begun drawing or writing or costume-making since becoming a furry.
Probably the most affectionate subculture in existence.
