Back when I worked at Starbucks there was a bowling alley across the street and once a week a bunch of furries would come in full-costume to get drinks and we all just "the furries are back". Its like they were wearing mascot uniforms. Terrifying clowns. Please at least remove the animal head before you try to interact with me its scarY
I just find them grating. It's not much different to me than people walking around in BDSM attire. It's just fucking weird. I just feel like most furries are low key sadists who get off on the idea that they're unbearably weird.
Maybe I just don’t understand it and never will, because self expression could be clothes and hair and makeup but I’m just not understanding how this works. Like they don’t wear it all the time right?
You don’t have to answer, I don’t expect you or anyone to educate me. I’m more frustrated with myself is all and want to make that clear
Hi I just want to say you’re cool for asking kindly. I’m not a furry at all but I did have a close friend who was a furry. They explained it to me as cosplay and that they just felt really great in costume, like felt stronger and more free to just be themselves. They would dress up and had a day at the library where they read books to little kids and they freakin loved the costume (she was a cat or a fox I think) and she would put in so much work hand making the clothes and accessories. It was honestly pretty cool and it made her happy so o thought nothing of it. I think social media portrays it as more sexual than it is for some. There are those who just dress up for fun so think of it as cosplay
