Decided to ask this because even though Plus1 is heavily an anthromorph comic, you don't have to be a furry to read it, and it might be interesting to know how many of you are familiar with the furry fandom.
The general/simple definition of a furry:
1. You like anthros.
2. You have an anthromorph persona character aka. fursona.
3. You contribute something to the furry fandom (such as draw/write anthro art and/or socialize with the community.)
- - - -
So that's that, it'd also be cool to hear more than just yes or no.
If you are a furry, what sort of furry are you? What do you especially like in the fandom? (art, costumes, conventions, other people?) And if you aren't a furry, what's your view about people who coinsider themselves one? Or do you perhaps find furries interesting and how?

Haha, no.
As for what I think of Furries, you're an allright bunch, most of you. A discomforting large percentage of your fandom seems to have poor respect for personal space, and for some people a bit of shame would do them good. But the majority are friendly, tolerant and creative, all very compelling characteristics.

I'm happy to call myself a furry, but unhappy to associate myself with 90% of the fandom  Most of the fandom wierds me out, so I'm glad to stick too art and making friends ^^ |

Hehe, yes, I agree with Sithil and Iggy, majority of the fandom is full of creepy weird shit that I don't want to touch even with a long stick. But then again, there's always worse out there!
I am a furry myself too, just, from the more normal end.

maybe, I don't have a definite fursona, and I'm incapable of drawing animals.

maybe, I don't have a definite fursona, and I'm incapable of drawing animals. Actually, I just started being able to draw anthro characters with some decency, so technically yeah, I now fit all the set criteria, so I am a furry, but only uh ... borderline so to speak, as in I don't dress up in those suits, and I don't go to conventions. |

Most furries don't go to conventions - just hang around in the internet among other furries. You are also not required to draw to be a furry. Majority of furries actually can't either. x'3 |

I was furry before I even knew what that was... one of my friends diagnosed me, because I was drawing anthros and making fursonas for my friends and me... so, yes, I am a furry!
(And planning the most technologically-advanced fursuit ever, as well! XD)
