The day in every furry's life.
10 years ago
... When the parents are informed of the hobby/lifestyle.
Apparently my mother has been watching Dr.Phil and calls me going 'Do you know what furries are.'
I'm brushing my teeth and simply shrugs as i don't know if i can bother to go into stuff...
She keeps going on with how she saw some chick(it was a dude) in a dog costume. (wich was made out of paper... Fuck you media.) and said how hillarious the furryfandom it was.
I simply shrug again and go "So.. You never made any connections between that and the wolf-suit i'm getting? Nor the art i got."
*quiet*
"Yeah- I'm a fur. But what you've seen is some twisted crap media has made."
*quiet and nods*
Then the questions began...
---
I've always wondered what it'd be like to bring completely clueless outsiders in and explain it. Shit is weird. 'Nuff said.
I started by showing her pictures to more well made suits from Clockwork and the like... They scared her (My mother is scared of everything.) as they seemed like monsters.
Then i showed her Templa-made stuff. She liked those alot more.
... I don't think it helped that i know almost all the suits by name. I felt like a kid with a pokémon-card deck presenting them for my parents.. And i'm like 12.
Overall: She thinks the furry fandom is weird as shit. But she's okay with it.
Not that it matters in the end; But parental approval is always apreciated and makes life easier. :)
God i love being a Furry. With its ups and downs of weird and weirder.

Its not easy in our day and age, wonder what 'our kids' will scare us with.
" Hey mom, Im a beiber "
" NOOOO! MY CHIIILD! "
- makes a late abortion -
Though seriously, good that she at least finds it "ok".. There's many less fortunate out there. I'm seriously happy knowing that if I ever tell my parents about it they'll be pretty "meh" about it, they wouldn't care at all as long as it's what I want to do.
This is by no means a 'oh my parents didnt like it :C ' post. This is more of a "Hah. They don't think i'm a fucked up weirdo so its all good! :D " post :)
Overal the outcome was way better than i thought. ^^;
Now i just need to keep her away of the *lightningstrike* ... Porn part of the fandom. Dun dun dunn.. xD
I'll just repeat the fact that most furs are over intelligent, awesome; Super friendly people. A bit odd (but so am i. :D )
We dress up in personifications of our favorite animal and so on.
Woop woop. :3
Mina päron är skit tråkiga, jag har postat både det ena och det andra " som text musik videon som EZ wolf gjorde som jag var med i
Och jag får inte ens en reaktion xP
Inte så nice att hon skrattar åt konceptet.. Nåja. Bra att hon är glad då jag är glad så det sprollar väll i längden.
Eller dissar dig i allmänt för det så ska man ju vara tacksam!

Spoilers - it's me.
