Honestly I was just confused about why people would want themselves to be judged before someone gets to know them, the only person being aggressive here is Fang and its a little saddening beacuse its the same stor give advice y everywhere else I ask at least some of the furry community are just mean about it like Fang with the sprays comment.
I'm not trying to be mean I was trying to give advice.
 
The tricky thing about any sex culture is that individual people have different ways defining the boundaries of that culture. For example, if I say that I beat off to anthropomorphic (furry) figures on occasion, I can illicit all sorts of responses from different people. Some people will write me off as furry despite the fact that I don't have a "fursona", fursuit, furry avatar/spray or any other trait associated with furrys. Others will say that I'm a semi-furry in that I have a trait that identifies me a furry but this trait alone doesn't allow me to completely associate with the furry culture by default. Others will say that I am not a furry and simply curious about a certain sexual genre. So really it's not really a question of "What is a furry?" but rather a question of "What do you have to do be classified as a furry by other people?"

Thank you for the well thought out and reasonable answer, and yeah honestly I get it I've seen Bi people been shunned by gays purely because they like women but in the end we're all in the same boat we're not "Normal" and yeah people are gunna' judge us before getting to know us its why I have a bit of a problem with putting furry in your name, icons are fine but if you went around advertising you where gay or transgendered or I dunno' you had a foot fetish people would be rude to you its the reason why I dislike it when people have "Furry" or something to that effect in there name, you're allowing people to judge you for something that doesn't define you, you're undermining years of cultural progress, it isn't right.

Some people don't care. In some cases it can even be a defense mechanism. If you judge someone straight up on a sexual preference like being a furry without trying to know more about the person then that shows them you aren't worth the time to know or deal with.
 
Being proud of being a furry is like being proud of masturbating. Nobody fucking cares what you do with your personal business, and its preferred that you dont tell everyone your business.

I would imagine furries want other furries to recognize them so they can masturbate do furry things together.

So no, it's not like masturbating.

A furry is a fetish, NOT a sexual preference.

Also, what's a furry?

You just said you put furry in your name to troll bait. I really wouldn't drag meowcenary into this, let him represent himself.
Here's the thing that annoys people. Your name was timberwolf. You came out as a furry, and then proceeded to change your name, avatar, and decided to make a SFW furry thread outside of unmod, featuring, in the OP, some fucking deviant art shit. Furrys aren't exactly represented in this community. Why? Because this is a TF2 forum dude. Nobody gives a shit about your fetish. It's the internet, your persona could be anything. A favorite TV show character, book character, actor, but you choose your fetish to represent you. Just as bad as people who shove being a vegan/*RELIGION HERE* in peoples faces. Shit likes this annoys me, yes, but it doesn't change how I think of people who identify as furries.
