I don't really know much about furries, so would you mind explaining any differences to me, please?

Differences in your culture.

The term 'furry', in this case, is very broad.

Someone who says they are furry is generally expressing an interest in anthropomorphic animals and/or creatures (and perhaps some affiliation to the furry fandom itself). They may express that that interest in a variety of ways - through art and through stories, or through roleplay and performance. How deep or meaningful an interest in Furry is varies greatly from person to person. Some feel that it is merely a character modeled off of oneself that is an anthropomorphic animal, while others may feel that it is a part of them.

People with a fetish like such usually go to 'Furcons', a convention for 'Furries' where you go and visit with other like-minded people and dress in 'Fursuits'; a personalized suit of fur worn for this occasion.

Me? I'm nowhere near as obsessed as the latter, I simply have an anthropomorphic character. Though I'm not a die-hard fan that engages in the above activities, I am still lumped into the category of 'Furry'.

The fandom is really quite fascinating.

oh, well (i don't speak for everyone here) from what i have seen in furries, we like animals with some characteristics (anthroponmorphic, aka, anthro) of humans so much, we wish we were anthroponmorphic animals. but as i said above, i don't speak for everyone. plus if you do research your bound to come apon the bad side of furry fandom. the side that made the fandom looked down appon by many people. but, to understand how that bad side came to be, look up part 2 of an interview with uncle kage on youtube, he explains what happened.

but they are expensive.

i'm more into the fandom, i'd rather be an anthro than a human

Thanks for the explanation, you two! I understand now.
