It surprises me just how many people around the world receive hate just because they are “a furry”. I don’t know if I am just one of the minorities who are lucky enough to have avoided such hate, or if it is simply just exaggeration. I mean, I have only read about all this hate on the internet (Facebook statuses, FAF threads, Twitter, Furry News and more) of furs expressing their experiences; however the internet is really just a big network of drama. Moreover, the internet seems to thrive on negative news – any negative news. I’m sure the positive stories are out there, but positive is boring so it never spreads further than the BFF and family. This is a shame really. I first came out to my colleagues that I am gay about 10 years ago, just after I got engaged. Everyone was so lovely about it. They welcomed my lifestyle, and embraced my partner (still together) and love hearing stories about our kids. This year, I came out as furry as well. Some of my colleagues didn’t know what a furry was (so I explained all about it – the good, the bad and the ugly), others had heard of the fandom before. Again I was supported, and they even like seeing my art work (even the adult stuff). I am known as “the wolf” in my office and I even sign off on my emails with ~The Wolf~ (internal staff emails only, not ones to clients of course lol). My work computer desktop is covered in furry art (SFW out of respect of course) and are even for asking updates on my fursuit that I haven’t started yet lol. Same with personal life as well, family and friends all accept me with no judgement. So, with that said, what is the deal with all this hate that I have personally not witnessed? Because I want to know – am I just lucky, or are things not really as bad as they seem?
