I just watched that show My strange addiction, and it has a furry episode on it, which caused me to think about myself as a furry really. xD I definitely think of it as another part of myself, an extension of my brain that allows me to really be who I've always wanted to be, not a dragon, but rather a picture of who I want to be as a human being. I do not think that being a furry is harmful, in any way, save for the times that people get a little too into it, start obsessing, and doing sexual things in a manner that is not healthy. The person in the show was not at all obsessing either, and I think the show was stretching things to try to make it a freak show. I love being a dragon. :3 I've met friends due to it, and fursuiting is awesome. x3
Just thought I'd write down some of my thoughts. Feel free to let me know your thoughts about this as well. :3
