I was an anti fur for a long time, never got too far or vocal about it but always thought the worst about the community. then one day I discovered a friend I had recently met was a furry, and it made me think about why Ive been hating it so much. After doing a little research, I came to realize how wrong I was about some things, and now have come to be a furry myself (Irony I know). Respect to you, not repeating my mistake and giving them a chance. one person at a time...
Yep. That's the cycle of anti-furries. I went through the entire cycle in just half a month.
yea... same. the cycle.
I have a question, but you don't have to answer it, though.
How did you become an Anti Furry in the first place?
I always don't understand why People like Hateing so Much in Life instead of Loving or Focus on the Positive.
And doing Research First before deciding what you want to believe is the Turth or the Lies?
I was young, and it was a “trend” to hate furrys. They where kind of the butt of the joke for memes/vines at the time and I just kinda got swept in with the crowd for awhile. After it died down I still had a similar opinion on it even though I never expressed it bc all I saw was the negative stuff. Then after awhile I ended up meeting a friend that was a furry and that finally prompted me to look into the topic and figure out what a furry really was, that’s when I realized it wasn’t some s3x thing or an identity thing (even if that is the case in occasional circumstance) and just a hobby.
Most anti furs are just misinformed, like I was for awhile. Sorry, this got long 😅
@@fluberdebluber7566 LITERALY SAME WITH ME. LOL
From a furry: thank you so much for giving us a chance and not saying “they should go die” two seconds in. A lot of people end up doing that and go to cons just to mess with us, and ask very inappropriate questions.
Exactly as a furry "kys" is very common thing we get online or not and sometimes it results in physical, sexual assault but they harras us most of the time. I kinda just wish they understood what the fandom actually was.
Us furries have to stick together ❤

Thank you so much for giving us a chance instead of immediately assuming the worst about us! The Hate we get has been getting worse and worse, and I’m glad to see that there are still people outside of the fandom who understand us. 😊🙏🏻 I hope you had a great time at the Convention.
tee hee i saw you on a live stream
@@ReyBeamm I just saw you on the livestream too!
Lol hello again Kaytechno
Yeah, like, fr, recently a furry convention was swatted or something
@@axelthedutchie3628 Hello Axel
I'm not even a furry and I can say that it is indeed a very kind, welcoming and EXTREMELY talented fandom. Most everyone is so nice and they try to make you feel welcome, furry or not. Thank you for having this experience to educate those who are unaware of what they assume by online standards!
Try feeling welcomed in the fandom after labeling yourself as "conservative," in your twitter bio XD
@@GuitarM0use you mean the group thats pro LGBT doesn't like the group thats trying to take away the right to marry and using propaganda to do so? Imagine my shock
@@Clancysway radical right wing is different from conservative my friend. I'm a conservative bisexual. doesn't mean i'm right wing.
@@Clancysway look there's the welcoming furry always having an excuse to treat everyone else like dirt. I remember you guys sending a death threat to a person who's been a furry a long time with the only thing you had to go on after all your interactions is that you found out he was conservative. whats next, finding out someone is straight because i've seen plenyt of hate for those people. you either fit the bill or they hate you
try feeling welcomed when you get sexually assaulted and people are more mad at you because you came out only because it was another furry that did it.

i never understood why furries were the ones getting shit for porn but others (like tenticle hentai) did not. oh yea, animecons are also great places for cosplay, from wizards to Harry Potter
I think its because of the mindset "If you want to **** an animal on 2 legs, you obviously want to **** one on 4 so their cats and dogs are in jeopardy"
i mean, of COURSE there will be porn, furries are people too. its like a venn diagram, there will be cross over. and then a small very loud minority will take it way too far by flaunting and trying to force it onto others to weird them out. thats just how humanity works, and exists within all communities.
I think it's because furries are based around animals.

GOD YES to both, it's heartwarming to see people who go out of their way to have firsthand experience with those in the community. Also, as someone who's entire sona is the same species as Ori i immediately picked up on the ost lol
Ayyy, I’m in the video!! Thank you for trying this out!! If you guys come back next year and wanna try out fursuiting, hmu! I’m a fursuit maker and would be happy to lend you guys a suit for a day!! Great video though!!
May have to take you up on that offer if I ever getting around to making a follow up sequel, thanks
LOL, I have always loved the art of the fandom and if I ever got that opportunity to try a fursuit I would probably fall off into the deep end, i've been curious about the fursite part.
@@condensednuts that would be very interresting to see.
Tho. when fursuiting you need to be very carefull. Here are a few points you need to be caucious of:
1: Fursuits, most of the times, are HEAVY! most of them end up adding 50-100 pounds to your overall weight. so you need a lot of endurance to make it through the day.
2: Wearing a fursuit is like laying under 10 cotton blankets. it gets hot under there. Bring a lot of water with you. and possibly one of theese little hand fan things.
3: Fursuits have a limited FOV (kinda like wearing the vision pro but even worse) so better have someone else nearby to help you get where you want to go.
4: it can be hard getting in and out of a fursuit. so have someone help you^^
5: the suit may also limit your movement so again, make sure you have someone with you to help you out.
But, it is fair to say that all of this trouble is definitely worth it and makes an experience like this a lot more fun so I would definitely recommend trying it out!
I've been with the fandom since almost the beginning. I think it was 1988 or 1989 that I first discovered it. It helped me in a way no one else could. I was sheltered, unused to being around people unlike myself, and very deeply closeted. Furry was the community that helped me break out of my shyness and isolation. I'm in my 50's, now, and can honestly say I doubt I would have made it this far without my fellow furs.
You did some good with your video, today; thank you!
Whoa, an OG furry? That's dope. I'm happy that you got to experience the fandom and stuck around as long as you did. As someone who currently struggles with shyness, I'm glad you were able to break those chains. These are the kind of comments that always makes me scoff at those people who thinks being a furry has helped no one to better/find themselves in life. Even if just to improve ones social life, that's still a huge blow up and is certainly worth noting imo. Mad respect.
@@malikharrell2488 thats just the generic i made friends thats literally everyone goes through but their choice was furry, nothing special.
I've been in the fandom for a few months now. And I can absolutely say that furrys form one of the most creative, welcoming and open communities out there. If you want to learn about being yourself no matter what others think, don't look at self proclaimed "alpha males". Look at furrys.
Speaking of welcoming. WELCOME 😀
I've been in the furry fandom for 10 years, and what you said here is exactly how I feel about the fandom and part of why I've been in it for so long. Welcome! I hope you enjoy your stay! 😁
Thanks for the warm welcome! I'm glad to be here.
Furries are fatherless weirdos

Thanks for being friendly and neutral about the entire furcon! I can say that it always depends on who you ask but the entire fandom is full of nice and amazing people that are very open and love to meet new friends. The whole thing isn't just about species that exists in real life, there are a lot of fictional species like Protogens, Synths, Wickerbeasts and even Vernids for example. It's extremely fun to put your persona into another species, whether fictional or existing, that's what the entire fandom is about.

honestly I only have recently joined the furry fandom, and I think it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. the whole community is so kind, and there’s so many adorable suits! I mainly joined because I had such a hyper-fixation on them, and as somebody with autism, I thought, ‘hey, I love teddies.. what if I was a GIANT one?’ and I could not be happier :D
and also, thank you for being so respectful and genuinely giving us a chance ^-^
You know, autism is used as an insult and I NEVER understood why…
@@DoctheFox3913 I know, but I just ignore it and go on with my day LOL
Yo a fellow autistic! Yeah, I've felt the same once I got more into the community I always LOVED dragons (and mythology altogether) so much that I drew a picture of myself as a dragon (sadly I can't use it as my pfp yet so I had to settle with this pic from google XD)
@@diamonddragon8733 that 1st part is same, I’m really into mythology, but for werewolves. I first realized my autism for how much I tend to overthink.

Cute!
3:51 in case anyone is curious. Theres at least $500,000 worth of fursuits in that room. Its not a cheap thing to do.
This needs more views, because there are literally children and drunk adults making horrible hate content towards furries because a few of the furries did something bad. But just because 1 person does something bad doesn't mean the whole community is bad!
edit: i mean more content creators need to see this so they can tell it to their audience
I know not all furries are bad, but every time I hear about someone doing things with their dog or get exposed for liking kids, nine times out of ten the suspect is a furry. I also don’t like the sexualization of anthropomorphic animals.
This is also the definition for racisms as well XD
EXACTLY! And, there are bad people in EVERY community!!! there are so many good furries and it’s hard to try to be one because of all the hate! I don’t know if I am one myself but if I was, I would not reveal it bc of the hate 😡

Legit anthropomorphic means "human like"... do you have similar hangups around human characters designs being sexualized?
@@MissDrawable I’m gonna be honest: i personally despise porn itself. I think it’s a nuisance and way too accessible.
thank u for not asking personal questions or making fun of us and understanding
Its amazing to find people such as yourself so willing to get to know us rather than putting us down/saying slurs etc like many other medias.
Here in Australia we sometimes get a lot of hate from people but we also try and have super positive relationships with the community, me and some other friends have organised a meet up every 2 weeks and besides a few unwanted people who give us grief, most of the community loves us as we are always being goofy and happy and the kids love us cause we are in essence giant playful plushies/mascots.
Unfortunately there is a side of the furry community which isn't good which many medias use to put us down in the eyes of everyone but most people do not condone the actions of those people and try and educate others, and if you look into every fandom most have a side that isn't as positive as it normally is, so again thank you for taking the time to talk to us.
also the respect you showed especially blurring out faces is a big plus cause there are many people who dont want their faces shown out of suits etc
for the positivity and wit, you have your self a new subscriber.

@@condensednuts i mean it's reporting like this that needs to be highlighted. go in with an unbiased eye, and let the people speak for themselves. it's when people go in with a certain mindset or spin, that's when the drama happens. If your reporting is good enough, then you can just let the video speak for itself, show don't tell as they say. tired of new casters having to make everything into a huge song and dance, just to keep people's attention. it's sort of why i hate reality tv shows where they show the story of people Auditioning, just show the act, if they make it through THEN tell us the story. don't make it a pity party.
as i was saying showing reality is the best reporting, it's why i like behind the scenes of movies and music videos, shows the process. Sure the finished product is nice, but it's the process that makes it better, because then you can rewatch them and pick up on the little things you missed before.
This is so neat! I am not a furry although i do like their artstyle, but I’m not a furry. I’ve always been like “oh yeah furries are cool” and this is cool to watch and makes me glad that people don’t always hate and most of them are just enjoying themselves! I respect you furries!

Nice video! Not sure why what seems like a little wave of videos like this seem to have popped up lately, but it's a breath of fresh air compared to the "classic" "I went to a furry convention" videos where you can almost tell the guy is actually mildly frustrated it's not the insane wild west of debauchery that the craziest stories you can read about 24/7 lmao.
And trust me, I'm the last person that would cry about people finding it weird. It absolutely is and that's not just okay, it's a good thing even!
Great video! Not only is your video on a fandom that gets a lot of misunderstanding really well put together, with the camera work, the questions you asked the members of the fandom, and the dichotomy between you and the cameraman, it was meant to be a journey of self discovery with something you didn't know much about, and I feel like all videos should be that. Good job! You just earned yourself a new subscriber!
14:46 good example of how hig the fandom is for me as i actually live less than 10 minutes from allentown

"Holy crap Lois! I'm in a UA-cam video" (in the Mets jersey at 1:41) Thank you for making this. You weren't judgmental and did a great job of documenting the con experience. I'm subscribing for sure
It's always interesting to see an outside perspective on the community you're a part of, cheers for checking things out!
Ok i can explain. The people making animal noises are basically, really really shy. They'd rather look weird then someone recognize them.
never invoke the fury of a furry
Unless your also an advocate for the second amendment, a furry is not going to do anything

Thank you so much for putting time and effort into seeing for yourself, rather than just jumping on the furry hate train :D
Edit: After watching the full video, I am absolutely wowed.
I dont even really know what to say about this video, its just perfection. an unbiased opinion is always something to be respected imho, and you did that perfectly. Thank you so, so much sir, ill be keeping my eye out for future uploads ;D
Oh hey I’m that orange and white bat that you had a couple shots of! Thanks for going in with an open mind and coming to learn, not to make fun of. Glad you left learning some stuff and even had some fun! This video was a great look into these cons for people who might not know what they’re like!
most of the furries I've met are pretty chill tbh
Same
It's hard being us but thanks you for being so nice, it just makes us happy seeing a non-furry being positive to us. Thank you❤
Unfortunately, it doesn’t matter what anyone says, haters are only gonna go by the negative. They will completely ignore anything positive that Furrys do. For example, there is a furry out there that discovered a vaccine for Covid and it has saved millions of lives, but the haters don’t care. but I’m still proud to be a part of the furry fandom, knowing all the good and amazing things that it has done, even if it is at times weird. But thank you so much for making this video and actually showing the truth behind Furrys
As a normal person, for the haters when they saw something weird they considered that is cringy or weirdos that the society never allowed it, that is the fear of uncontrol over things but for me seeing something exotic is just a part of life and it worth to living for it.
Wow you can find one good thing amongst a sea of atrocities and there's a reason why i refused the Covid vaccine.
@@tranthang7791 I hate furrys but for many reasons. Before you start being toxic Cus I’m anti furry I just want to say it’s an opinion of mine and that I dont think that all furrys are weirdos or zoophiles or whatever and I’m sure there are a lot of nice people in the community but what you said about people fearing of having no control over something. That is kinda accurate but not really, i do not fear the furry community. I fear for what it stands as, people identifying as animals and dressing up like them too. like what has our society become, people have no shame these days. I fear that when I’m older and have kids I have no idea what will be socially acceptable, people could identify as anything or people sexually attracted to animals. I fear that the internet makes it so easy to influence kids and makes them think ridiculous things. Again I do not hate the people I’m pretty sure there are nice people in the community but I just dislike the fandom.
@@JesusChrist-us2zc because society changes social norms is not a reason to target hate towards a specific group. It takes wasted effort to be rude. Furries are just actors in costumes. Benny The Bull is probably the most loved furry and when that actor goes home he's just a normal guy. They don't actually identify as their character. There are some mentally ill people who think they are animals however they aren't furries.
@@JesusChrist-us2zc Before you become an "anti" of something make sure you know what it means. Furries do not identify as animals, or are attracted to animals. Furries have an interest in anthromorphic animals, anthromorphic means an animal with human qualities, like talking, walking on two legs always, and doing other things humans do. The fandom is very nice and welcoming to everything thats not bad. Furries raise many charity funds, as most conventions send the money to charity groups.
Thank you so much for making this video, I found the humor great haha and I really appreciate the fact that you didn't hide your emotions and you were comfortable showing your turmoil as well as seeing your progression overtime and really getting into the groove. So many people assume that being a furry is a fetish, when the reality is, it isn't. Every fandom has a fetish aspect but the reality is that doesn't mean its 100% a fetish. Being a furry is so much more, and I appreciate the fact you went out of your way to show that so thank you.
Nice chill vid! I often have moments where I feel ashamed of being a furry because of people that put the fandom down, but vids like these reassure me that I'm just following my heart. I can't help but feel endeared by this awesome fandom and have been a part of it for many years
Thank you for giving us a chance, I love the furry fandom. I’m a teen furry and I like the SFW side obviously. Thanks for the respect
Went to my first con Texas Furry Fiesta 2 days ago and it was a life changing event! Everyone was super nice, so many creative fursuiters, and the events were fun. Definitely going to more cons!
hello, talking from the weird side of the fandom here
honestly, like in every group, there's a really vocal minority of awful people in the fandom who give us a really bad name
and there's no abundance of sexual content, I draw some myself
but there's so much more than that.
but there's something nice about even that part of the fandom, people are really open about stuff that is traditionally in the west really personal, and the openness doesn't end in sexual stuff, you get to make really strong connections with amazing people, making friendships that are ocean deep, helping each other with stuff I would have a hard time talking to a therapist about and more.
my time in the fandom really really helped me with crippling social anxiety and destructive self image, when my classmates would bully me for simply being quiet and keeping for myself at the time.
to learn to love myself despite how insecure I am, and to grow and improve as a person as I mature up.
yeah not everyone is great in there, but when I dipped my toes in other fandoms, there have been grooming attempts to no end.
school, work and where not, there's always a few people who are awful, it's just a part of living life as a social creature.
to anyone who wonders about the fandom from the outside, yes, you'll find lots of sexual content, and some of the people and groups in it are a problem
but beyond that muck that surfaces to the top of this huge lake, there's tons of talent, passion, love and some of the most amazing people I've ever met
As a furry, I say this video is a masterpiece. I absolutely love how someone outside of the community is willing to come into a con and take the time and effort to understand the ways of the furry fandom. The fact that you say “who cares” in the video brings me joy. Genuinely appreciate this video, you did amazing! ❤
been in the fandom for over 20 years, thanks you for giving us a fair shake, its been a long road for acceptance
It says a lot about you in general that you're willing to be so open minded to such a derided group. You'd honestly fit right in with that attitude and your mascotting past. The unashamed self expression in this fandom can be really good for mental health. Along with how much furries care about each other and act as a support network. It's honestly the thing in my life I'm most proud to contribute to for how much good it does. This fandom accepts and helps people that otherwise feel ostracised. We have so many LGBT people, people with autism, people who were severely bullied, people with disabilities etc. I know so many furries that had no friends at all before joining the fandom, and furries gave them love and support and encouraged them to earnestly be themselves. I think this fandom does a lot to improve the average mental health of the world.
As a furry myself, thank you so much for taking the time to understand us
At 60 years old I am currently making my first furry partial suit, hopefully head, tail, paws, feet, leg and arm sleeves..
I am part of the lgbtqzxyjfsp+-x or whatever they call it these days, I dont really partake in the activism I am just a male to female transsexual going about my life my way.
I started down this rabbit hole because i am volunteering for Glasgow pride this year and thought it would be fun for the kids attending to make a costume and after much thinking decided on a fursuit.
Then I found out about the furry fandom, not really much happening here in Scottyland on that front yet..
But I soon discovered the hate shown to some furry peeps, and of course some of the dark underbelly of the genre!
But wherever you get large numbers of humans with a common 'thing' you get the same proportion of sick and twisted individuals as you find in the general population.
Its sad that there are people that use the minority or bad to tar the good majority, I have obviously come across the mentality in other walks of life including the hate for being trans.
But there are many people like yourself that can see that we are all individuals and a few bad apples does not mean the whole orchard is rotten.
For me, its a fun way to be something else, and to bring a bit of joy into others lives, its nothing sinister, its just a way to cast off inhibitions and have a fun time, hopefully also a way to raise some funds for local charities in these hard times, I fail to grasp why that should paint a target on me for hateful people to shoot at.
Much kudos to you for not only making a really great video on the subject, but highlighting and debunking the hateful aspect in a fun and entertaining way.
The furry fandom is really creative, there is so much talent. Atleast there’s a normie who respects us. Unlike some UA-camrs
From a furry, thank you for not just assuming and focusing on the worse aspects of the fandom and focusing more on the better parts of it. Thank you so much

@@MrScrake Why should I watch this tainted degeneracy
Among all the 'weird' fandoms, furry are certainly among the most likeable. Whenever I interact with furries, its a very positive and welcoming vibe, there is so much creativity in that space, so many cool ideas, talented artists, gifted makers and sweet storytellers. Its probably the one of the most wholesome fandoms out there. That they are very inclusive of lgbtq+, bodily impaired and neuro diverse people helps a lot to give this positive vibe. I'm not a furry and some of the NSFW stuff certainly is pretty freaky to me, but I honestly like quite a bit of the art coming from the space too.
I like furries and I like that you showed them in an unbiased and open way. They deserve more love.
i love the camera man i hope he actually did have fun despite the sounds of the video the ending was great though that made me spit out my drink also thank you for not being "oh i hate this and them they should be hunted" you gave it a chance its easy to fall into a band wagon furrys are people and that old saying "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." that isnt true words can hurt so again thank you for give a con a go i really do hope you both had a good time
I don't consider myself a furry, but not only are some of my best friends are furries (they are such awesome people) I've grown to love the art and creativity of the fandom. They ve opened my mind, and I'm much less judgemental. I used to think worse of the fandom for the longest time.
I love playing DnD and now I love to play anthro races and monstrous races rather than humans. So much fun!
As a former furry myself, I appreciate people like you for taking the time to understand us. ❤
I'm already human, why would I want to pretend to be one

@@DizzyCatStudios go cry
@@theuploader2660 i wuld but your giving me ✨insecure energy✨ and it kinda ruins the mood
@@DizzyCatStudios “ruins the mood” oh please
You need more subs for this. Thank you for going in to an actual con showing us furries aren't all what people assume to be.
THANK YOU for actually being kind to the folks you interviewed! Ive seen far too many videos like this where people stick a phone in a furries face and laugh at them right then in there. I'm so glad you approached this video as someone who genuinely wanted to learn about us versus those who just want to mock us from inside our spaces.
Sadly my friend thinks all furries are zoophiles, and as a furry myself I can say that that is completely untrue.
I just like escaping reality with fun goofy anthropomorphic characters. It's really fun and gets my creative gears going.
I couldn’t believe it when I saw myself in this video. ANE 2023 was an amazing experience and I’m planning on going again! Thank you for indulging in the fandom!!
Thank God someone finally gave us a chance.
I get harrased for it daily. When I ever say I am a furry to a group, usually it ends with being harrased until anything happens to make them stop. So I give my respect to you for clearing a lot of conspiracys and overall helping the entire community and fandom.
This is what I wish and strive to become: an unbiased, but respectful researcher and interviewer. There's something about them that can learn so many experiences that allow perspective of both; within the trend or outside the lines. Just seeing this video not only gives me inspiration, but plentiful hope for the world.
That, and the furry community. Some people just never tend to respect change, whether it's a "joke" or not.
I've been a furry for 23 years. I still get the knee jerk reaction when I see stuff like this in a "Oh shit, here we go again..." and expect people to focus on shock value. But you legit got it and wanted to know what the community was about. The community means so many different things to everyone, but in the end it really is all about having fun and enjoying ourselves with our hobbies. Thank you for the video!
Thank you for treating the fandom and its people with respect. You took the time to educate yourself about a topic that most people would make snap judgements about based on rumours, speculation, and hate. We mind our own business and keep to ourselves, but we also welcome anybody who does not bring hate with them.
You asked, "what would you say to the haters?" Everyone is entitled to their opinions, and we don't need everyone to like us. We keep to ourselves. I encourage anyone who goes out of their way to actively disrespect or spread hate towards us, despite us not affecting or having any bearing on their lives, to look at themselves and evaluate who they are as people. Furries won't end society as we know it but hate very likely will.
Thank you! You've presented this perfectly in your own way, including the satirical "hater" cameraman character.
It both mocks the hate and also, in a way, keeps the video serious on the topic of furries being a widely misunderstood community. Especially with the "beat up" at the end, which is crude but gets the point across, in my opinion. Better than a sweet-sweet happy ending where he would change for the better.
Great work! As a furry, you're doing us a good service this way. Keep it up ^^
I never really gave the term "furry fandom" much thought until my time at Anthrocon this year, when I had a realization that we call ourselves a fandom because we are fans of each other. I recognize and get excited about characters the wider populace would never have even seen, and there are people who get excited at the characters I've created myself. It's so cool and wholesome, and it's really helped drag me out of my cynical, pessimistic shell. I wish the whole world had the same mentality as the furry fandom, where we just want to support each other and revel in each other's accomplishments and creations. Like, yes, we love various characters from media like those in Zootopia, StarFox, and Looney Tunes, but they're the gateway drug, not the main attraction to the fandom. That's just...us. Ourselves, and each other. And I love that about us.
Fancy seeing ya here
@@SpywareVA lol yes. Small fandom. :3
(Im not a furry) Ive been doing furry commissions for around 4 years now, through the years like 90% of the people were really kind and great. Somewhat people only see the worst things that arent common as they think.. Theres lots of super talented people in the community.
8:41 the meme potential this has. It absolutely hilarious!!!! (I say this as a furry myself)
Thank you for being so Uber respectful! I wish everyone came in with the attitude you have. Also I’m in the video! At 8:37 you can see a blue, yellow and orange civet waving and that’s me :] thanks for being epic
From a different channel and wanted to see the chief himself: thanks for letting furries be better represented, not only that: but also being very chill bout it! (Also the username is god tier and brings tears to anyone who sees it)
Furries are wholesome people.
Reading through the comments, you've even gotten tons of support and love from posting this video and having an open mind! Thanks so much for being so supportive.
Thanks for taking a look at the fandom and seeing what its truly like to be around furries, its really rare to see something like this happen very so often, so its amazing to see, after being a furry for almost 5 years, i can say hate has been getting worse, and people are being told incorrect information about the fandom because of social media, but these kinds of videos really help people see the overlooked things furries do that often get missed by people outside the fandom.
Hey man, as a furry myself, I really appreciate the good natured representation of the source material! It is really cool that you had a great time! Hope the camera man get's a change of heart sometime in the future :D
Most I know are very sweet people with lots of empathy. Also very horny and kind of socially awkward, but I know that from weebs and nerds, too ...
The thing is most sub cultures have
that at some level, it always attracts people who want to be part of a group and you always have people who kind of get a sexual thrill out of it. And that is totally okay.
If these people overstep boundaries it's bad, but even the subculture as a general doesn't like that and most of them would see that as inappropriate.
This is very well edited, thanks for taking your time to do this its always fun too see what's going on in there hah
I enjoyed your commentary and the fact you went out of your comfort zone to learn about them and even chatted with a few. Furries are weird, I know full well about that but weird isn't bad, just helps with having more unique people around. Thanks for the video and generally being open minded, wish more people was like that.
8:42 "So, how'd you become a furry?"
"unknown noise"
Im kinda new to being a furry, but this here is amazing glad to see you learning and being so kind and respectful
I was a furry a few years back. I say I left for the cringe aspects but in reality I was bullied out of it from my peers. I loved having a persona that others saw me as since I wasn’t very confident and same goes for now. I may rejoin in the future but for now imma stay out of it. You furries are cool tho as a whole
that's sad
Absolutely loved the ending about acceptance, thanks for keeping such an open mind on people you didn't understand prior.
To me being a furry is about being able to express myself and be who I want, this is always why I tell everyone to love and accept regardless of beliefs/who someone is, and that "Being kind and generous does not cost a thing."
This deserves sooooo many more views. Thank you so much for going into this with an open mind and being willing to spread a more positive message about the fandom!
Lets be honest, I dont give a shit about all the haters and we are probably having more fun than them. If they ever think we are gonna quit thanks to them, *they are so wrong* Stay safe guys❤
ive had to hide the fact im a furry for YEARS now in fear of being shamed or attacked, and this video makes me really happy to see someone from outside the fandom being nice and open about their questions.. and thats just... amazing, thank you so much
Haha I was in this video! Thank you for this view into our community:)
Thank you, thank you, thank you. This is not another hate video! This is an amazing documentary-type video going inside and actually showing what being a 'furry' truly is. I appreciate this so much. You earned my support. Glad this popped up in my recommended!
was a really well created documentary my dude, seriously well done!
I'm pretty young and slowly becoming a furry. (I'm in middle school) and the reason I say slowly is I've been scared of all the hate and judgment so I love to see people actually explained the Fandom I'm loving instead of judgment us.
HEY i came here right after i watched this video of a certain doggie in lifejacket
first of all i wanted to tell you i kived what you did, you didnt listen to the stigma and literally went to a furry convention and experiencied from first hand all of this and that's awesomme, lets hope a lot of people star thinking like you and get all of this incredible video ♥
I too saw this video from beta
I was brought here by a betaetadelota video. Thank you for being so respectful and keeping an open mind. I am glad you had a good time. I hope more people keep open minds like you! ❤❤❤
Thank you for bringing out the truth about us.
We’ve been looking for this forever, without any hate.
It's amazing to see you give us a chance.
When I was at NordicFuzzCon in Sweden they did an open house day, and multiple people with no interest in the fandom beforehand came out of curiosity, and it's heart-warming to see. Coverage like this is amazing and me and many more are grateful for the more positive and still humoristic value of this video ^^
every fandoms has weird side, but furry fandom is one of the most welcoming and lovely community ive known
honestly really nice wind of change to see this repsonse, thanks for giving everyone a chance! i absolutely love the art and stayed for the welcoming and warming community, and yeah there are a lot of odballs within the community but that wont tkae away how many great things can be found within as well, and i do hope everyone has a wonderfull day!
Amazing video, thanks for giving us a chance! I haven't been to a furry con yet so showing all this gives me the best look of things!
I’m Poison, I am a fox+wolf hybrid, I just love foxes so much and wolves.
Im one too :) Folf right here.
Ayy, I’m the rainbow and white creature from the interviews! I was wondering where that footage was gonna pop up
Awesome! Couldn't find you to send a link and thank you!😅
@@condensednutsI’m not that active on most social media so I’m often tough to track down tbh
Thank you for making this!, its great to see others trying to understand instead of the defult of calling us gross and weird!,
I was the orange opposum in the parade in the video! :)
Really funny and glad to see someone not just trying to focus on the extremists. Because ho boy we got those too - and if you want content to stand out and get attention it isn't hard to hunt down the real wierdos and focus interviews on them. But on average, yeah, we're just nerds. 90% of the time we're just normal dudes with a colourful hobby.
Met a good few people who go to furcons who definitely aren't furry; they just enjoy conventions in general and like the vibe.
So pretty accurate video honestly, one of the few I've seen around. Thanks thank the time making it
i'm seeing more people doing this type of thing, not being disrepectful, and being genuinely curious about the furry fandom
