Well, furry is a big part of my life, but unfortunately I feel like I’m missing out on a lot by but expressing it more.
When I was a teen I loved the idea of wearing a collar and having furry posters all over the walls. And now that I’m an adult in his thirties I dress very vanilla and my home decorations are too. It’s like one of those things you always want to do, but then you need to either negotiate with your partner or explain things… At which I’m very bad.
How does furryness manifest in your life?
A boyfriend bought me a collar with a cute tag, but I don’t wear it or anything in public. Honestly I’m in kind of a hostile environment right now and the people around me are the types that watch Ben Shapiro and unironically watch trump speeches.
I have sort of been in this situation a while but I should be moving in a couple weeks in a much more queer friendly part of Long Beach.
Otherwise I keep plushies and stuff around, but they are pretty innocuous (Pokémon, fox beanie babies, etc). I definitely feel it that I just can’t be bothered to have to explain myself to every passerby why I’m wearing cat ears or something.
