I'm a furry. I go by Neon the Maine Coon online, and I'm right proud of it. But others don't seem to be: I get barked at in school hallways, meowed at on the bus, and physically pushed and shoved daily. I understand that there is indeed a bad side to the fandom but why stereotype every single fur into some sort of cheese-grater-fucking whore when we aren't? I hate it. I can't have an identity or an opinion about anything. Why? I didn't do anything wrong! I fucking hate how people hate furries. All we want to do is dress up in a costume and GO HUG A KID WITH CANCER OR SOMETHING. I DON'T GO AROUND FUCKING ANIMALS. I simply want to put on a costume, go outside, and make some kids happy. Take pictures with them. Hug someone. I want, for at least an hour in my life, to look at my life and not have to say 'I failed today. I didn't make someone smile.' To me, making someone smile, seeing someone laugh, being the cause of happiness is my sole purpose in life. Being a furry is a WONDERFUL way to do that- or it would be, if people stopped hating on a GODDAMNED 13-YEAR-OLD IN A COSTUME! LOOK UP INDIGO RAPTOR! THEY WERE SO YOUNG AND THOSE HATERS MADE THEM KILL THEMSELF!
What did we do besides wear our costumes and fight through the storms thrown at us? We're not gonna give up our identity. Obviously not, because many of us died bearing the title of "furry". We aren't bad.
So why persecute us?

Yeah well its nothing new how dad acted today. Spoke of throwing us down if they win the lottery. I already knew his loyalty is not with me and mom. I told mom...
If you're 13 I'm honestly surprised (if this is real) that your parents/mom would allow you to go to school in a furry costume, let alone your teachers allowing it in the dress code. But if you're telling the truth I would just say screw the haters. You're not harming anybody by wearing a costume I mean every kid wears a Halloween costume on Halloween. Its no different. Just a community.
ReplyI should have worded that differently- I don't wear the fursuit at school. I just wish people would leave me alone about just wearing ears.
ReplyThe world is much larger than your school halls or even your town. Someday you will find peers who wont treat you that way. Unfortunately you will always face scrutiny from some, just hold the ones who love you closer those days.
Replythere's a time and a place to be and do what we wanna do, unfortunately it does applies to large communities because, outside the online world, the number of people you might encounter in your surroundings with the same likes are reduced. Not agreeing with the bullying thing, but might be okay to not to wear the costume at you school and just share with the ones that can appreciate the craftsmanship those suits require, like yourself said, in a place where kids can play with you and enjoy it as it is. Mostly because it can be worse in the future (high school and college)
I mean, you don't see people into bonding wearing the leather/latex suit outside in the normal world. Time, place and people to do what you want to do. Highschool is not one of them.
ReplyAgain- I should have worded that in a different way. I don't wear my fursuit to school. I just want to be able to wear small things- paws, ears, perhaps a tail- without being bullied.
