As in I have a fondness of furry animals/anthros/whatever.<br />
<!--more--><br />
Well, so now that you know it, what else?</p>
<p>First thing, or the less questionable thing. Unlike a majority of other furries, I can&#8217;t draw for heaven&#8217;s sake. Trying to offset this with my writing skills. Have you seen my <a href="http://chaoticiak.deviantart.com/">deviantART account</a>? (Yes, I can make avatars. Because I can somewhat do computer graphics. But that&#8217;s not drawing.)</p>
<p>Second thing&#8230;okay I&#8217;m putting my whole self-image at risk here, as this entry is also crossposted to my Facebook profile, and I don&#8217;t think any of my Facebook friends (except <a href="http://mathgrant.blogspot.com/">one</a> that is not really on Facebook anyway) are furry, so things might get badly misinterpreted (read: nasty).</p>
<p>I find that I prefer anthros that are not clothed. (Ferals should always be unclothed; I find ferals with clothes weird.) Of course, I also prefer such furries to not convey any sexual image along with them, as in not containing anything probably offensive (e.g. genitals <span style="background-color:black;">(wait what my phone doesn&#8217;t auto-capitalize after e.g. wut)</span></p>
<p>). See Sky, my character, for example. (Need to have picture of him 😛 ) Well, you might already know this fact if you know that my phone&#8217;s wallpaper is <a href="http://www.zerochan.net/1002542">this Glaceon anthro</a><br />
(sixth in Google Images when searching &#8220;glaceon anthro&#8221;, at least for my phone), although I doubt anyone can tell the reference.</p>
<p>(On a very minutely related note, did you know that Glaceon is my second favorite Pokemon now? <a href="https://chaosatthesky.wordpress.com/2013/04/06/yet-another-favorite-list/">Oh wait&#8230;</a>)</p>
<p>Third thing. I know about public misconceptions about furries, where furries are equated to &#8220;people that enjoy watching animals having sex with each other&#8221; (which I also say utterly inaccurate, as besides missing a very large portion of actual furries, that definition includes biologists that are specializing in the mating patterns/habits of animals). I prefer scouring the interwebz for finding cute Pokemon—feral, anthro, otherwise—to be saved or to be my wallpaper/avatar/whatever. Yes, I do stumble on those offensive images at times, but I don&#8217;t pay more attention to it as any other uninteresting images. That also means I have a personal conflict when I see a cute image that is also &#8220;naughty&#8221; :&lt; (Usually I tend to stay away from them.)</p>
<p>Heh.</p>
<p>(If you ask, no, I&#039;m not a brony. I know <a href="http://cyrebjr.livejournal.com/">one</a> that is, though. Not all furries are bronies.)</p>
<p>EDIT: Blargh the site hosting the Glaceon anthro doesn&#8217;t allow hotlinking. So I have that link to the post (as opposed to the image directly).</p>
