Furries.

[Eltu]

Since there was a discussion about this in another thread, I am moving this here and creating a thread for it.

Furries - what IS a furry, really?
(talking about the humans/fandom here, not the anthropomorphic beings themselves)

A person who is interested in anthropomorphic creatures?
A person who is sexually attracted by anthropomorphic creatures?
A person who shows this sexual attraction by dressing like an anthropomorphic creature?
A person who does this and also engages in sexual acts with other people who do this?

And of course - what do you think of this?

Personally, I think the line is drawn somewhere between the first and second question above. One do not have to manifest this attraction (with fursuits etc) to be a furry - as long as this person has an attraction, often sexually, to anthropomorphic creatures - this person is a furry.

I'm not a furry myself, but I know some people who are - who I deeply respect. I guess my bottom line is - you do not have to be a sick or bad person just because you are a furry - it is simply a different kind of attraction.
