Help Grannie understand
just what the heck a FURRIE is. I have a high school student who tells me he is a furrie. I have done some research but can't quite figure it out.

Are these just a bunch of folks into costumes, or is it a sexual fetish?

8. Every deviantart gallery of a furry would beg to differ...
Edited on Sun Jan-22-06 12:48 PM by primate1
They always seem to find my deviantart page, somehow. It's like they're stalking me, ahha. Just about ever "furry" drawing I've ever seen has been a damn naked fox or rabbit or something. *shudder* Not all of them mind you, but a very large portion.

5. A game and other things
involving animals.

Check 'furrie' in wikipedia.

Looks quite harmless and fun.

10. oh grannie, you really DO NOT WANT TO KNOW.. it's just best if you
forget all about it.

It's beyond comprehension.

I don't understand people who need to have sex while dressed up as disney characters.
