I guess I'm just throwing this out there: What's up with furries? I don't mean this offensively at all. I am kind of an observer of people and I like to figure them out. I'm having some trouble with furries, though, because I just don't seem to grasp a few concepts.

They like animal-people/anthropomorphic concepts, but I usually only see a few animals mixed with the human form. Wolves, foxes, lions, chipmunks, tigers, and bunnies seem to fit most peoples' preferences. Why just those animals, why not more? Is there a common thread between those animals to make them more appealing than others?

Do furries really see themselves as literal animals, or do they enjoy exploring the figurative animal in human nature?

Are most furries driven by a form of sexual deviance, or is it not that way with all of them?

I've had a bit of contact with a lot of furries online, actually, and I guess I might need to meet some in real life to really figure them out. Feel free to share what you know. When I can't figure something like this out, my brain dwells on it, against my will, slowly driving me insane! :D

You're back! Welcome back!
hey tanya! You did see me the other day and I wanted to run up to you too, but it had been so long I had forgotten your name (which is very typical of me; I forgot my own name as a missionary, that's why they gave me a nametag! <--lame joke). How's it going?

I'm easing into the normal life of normal people. With normal jobs, bills, schedules, family crap and all the rest. It's going good. :) I'll see you around sometime!
