There and back again....

      Since this decision has taken so many hours of my time in thought and self discovery, I decided that since the decision has been made, I should share this journey with others. Perhaps to help others along the journey, to find others to help me, or maybe to clear up some misconceptions about Furries and the fandom I am falling in love with.

      This love goes back a long way, growing up I poured over the Redwall book series, for a run of four years they were the only books I would read. combined with my love of cartoon characters like Bugs Bunny, and the Wily Coyote, added with the imaginative genre that is Japanese Animation it was only a matter of time before I found the Furry Fandom.

     Originaly what snagged me was the beautiful anthropomorphic artwork, of course there is a more adult side, but like most genre's there always is. (which is not always a bad thing!)There is a fine line at times between a tasteful nude, and an erotic nude.

      Furry means a lot of things to a lot of people, many associate the fandom with sexual deviancy. Which is a naive statement, it is not uncommon for groups of people to be bundled into one large stereotype. To me although, it means so much more. As a Furry I can express myself in ways I cannot as a human. Maybe this stems from my extreme distaste for the human species, and there are admirable qualities in animals that I would like to exhibit in my own life. Also the lure of the suit, and the alterego grows larger by the day. I can be whomever I wish, in other words, I would not be bound by first impressions.

     Aside from everything else... it looks fun
