Writing a sociology paper on Furries
12 years ago
It's not a full-blown research paper, but it is definitely a prelude to a proper ethnography I want to do as a senior project. I'm writing about the Furry Fandom in the most objective way I can for an upper-level sociology class on social norms and deviance. My professor is a total babbu and is familiar with the fandom past the negative press we get so that's a cool thing. He's encouraging me to tackle it like a field study utilizing things I've encountered in my two years of active involvement in the fandom. But yeah it's gonna be eight to 9 pages long and I'm really gonna go all out on this shit. I might put it up on here if I think it's any good.
