I can honestly say I didn't even know the genre/fandom existed until about 10yrs ago; PEI's pretty secluded from the rest of the world, and I didn't stumble across it online until 2006'ish or so? Loved it ever since. And had I known about it beforehand, would've loved it even longer :3
I have watched the genre mutate from a comic book scene into a fetish scene, it is interesting to stand back and watch, who knows where this whole thing will go next? The first fursuit I ever saw was a person dressed as Usagi Yojimbo at San Diego comic con in the mid to late nineties. Now we have our own cons and people dress as their fursonas rather than pre-established characters. It is so weird.
