LATE TO THE PARTY

*Are you a furry?
I don't think of myself as one, but I draw anthropomorphic animals and sometimes use one to represent myself, so there's really no point in saying "BUT NO SERIOUSLY YOU GUYS I'M NOT ACTUALLY A FURRY."

*If you have a Spouse/SO - Is he/she a furry too?
why would anyone be in a relationship with me that is a ridiculous concept

*How long have you been in the community?
Uhhh two months? I created my ~fursona~ about two years ago, but I was still in a LOL FURRIES mindset, so I only drew her ironically haha wow what a hipster.

*How did you find furry?
Seventh grade: "hey look at these funny weirdoes on the internet who draw anthropomorphic animals DOING IT"

*What's your reason for furry (what interested you to get into the community)?
I like animals and interesting character designs.

*What's Furry to you?
animal-people

*If someone found out you're a furry and asked you about it how would you respond?
"uh well I guess I sort of am yeah :("

*What are your favorite aspects of our community?
I was going to say "good artists," but grannysgonnagrabya said "bad artists" and I actually like that answer better. BLUEBERRY TF oh man

*Do you use any furry terms? (i.e. yiff, paws, murr?)
ONLY IN JEST

*What do you wish furry was NOT associated with?
Bestiality. Also, I wish people would realize that furries aren't always sexual, and that even when people draw ~adult furry art~ they don't always talk about it ridiculously. YIFF ^_^ TOUCH MY PAW *PURRS*

*How strongly do you feel about someone bashing the community as a whole?
I don't identify with the community that much, so it doesn't make me go OH BOO HOO :( but I do get a little annoyed because much of what people say isn't true (see above).

*How strongly do you feel about anyone bashing you yourself for your interest based on the media's aspect of what furry is?
I would probably laugh. "Oh, I see you're drawing yourself as a bunny! Are you like those people on [CSI/The Tyra Banks Show]?"

*We all know furries have alot of sexual aspects in this fandom, What's your opinion on it?
I'm not that fond of furry erotica (aka "the yaff"), but sometimes I enjoy it, although even then I feel like, "Man, that'd be a lot hotter if they were human." Most of the time I don't have much of an opinion about it - I just think, "Oh, more naked dog-people with boners." And sometimes it's hilarious.

Personal

*What is/are your fursona(s)?
SNOWSHOE HARE ;3;

*Do you have any fetishes that pertain to the fandom?
I have ridiculous fetishes, but they're not specifically furry-related.

*If you could magically morph into your fursona would you?
NO, THAT WOULD BE HORRIFYING. GIANT HARE ON ITS HIND LEGS. I would frighten people.

*Do you believe you have a spirit animal?
psyduck

*What other fanbases/groups are you a part of?
~*~ANIME & MANGA ^o^~*~ and the vidya

*Anthro/Feral, Therian or Kemonomimi (Not a furry, just a human with animal ears and a tail)?

no

uhhh maybe one?

none; I live in a dormitory

*Aside from furry what other interests do you have?
comics, video games, eating simple carbohydrates

*Are you confident enough in yourself to say that you're a fur, no matter what the media says?
No, I'm not. I'm pretty embarrassed of it.

Meetups

*Do you attend any cons? If no, would you attend any cons? If yes, which cons have you been to?
No; I might attend one if I had friends who were going, but I'm too shy to make friends with the people I admire, SO

no

*Have you ever attended a furry party? If no, would you attend one?
I HATE PARTIES I am always the lonely nerd in the corner

I've met someone who is on FA, but I knew her from somewhere else on the internet first.

*What furry websites do you attend?
Just FA.

*What non furry websites do you frequent?
LiveJournal, deviantART, Facebook, assorted websites that specialize in depraved anime porn, and a few years ago I was on 4chan all the time but now I'm ashamed of it (I'm a /b/ expatriate)

*Has the fandom done anything for you that you're thankful for? Has it taught you anything or brought you anything you treasure greatly?
Good art + laffs at bad art
