why is the term Furvert never used in media?!

[Riot Da Woof!]

why is the term Furvert never used in media?!

because there are so many other names the media would like to call furries than "furverts".
I care not to list them >.>.

hmmm well i understand very much that the furry is NOT all about sex but you must admit there is a small part that is, like if you didn't enjoy it then you wouldn't do it. Also look at the furry porn seriously a ton of that stuff, and who makes that porn. . . . furries! so i understand that we as furries try to make everyone understand its not all about sex but here is a portion that is isent there?  i guess i am just being devil advocate sorry :(

[Icey Dominus]

oh and the older couple in that vid REALLY freaked me out a little and ya that vid would not make me like furries if that was the first i saw of them.

the first time i ever herd of furries i am sad to say and dont kill me for it was on CSI. I didn't get into furries for a another year or so after wards but that's where i herd of it first  :-[

When I look at furry most of it is porn and when its not porn (or something that looks remotely intimate) its something freaky or boring for me. So what I been doing is trying to embrace being a furry more than just for porn and cuddles etc. I started off by drawing the martial arts I do using my sona and Lucario: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/4489247

Do you think its possible to play capoeira in a fursuit? I was considering it when I get one x3

SabahAA
VERY hard, and not with other people

amzinthos
Maybe its possible with someone else if you take it slow... Still fursuit or not I think a couple people playing capoeira in the middle of a furcon would be amazing x3 We totally gotta hook up if we happen to be going to one at the same time

SabahAA
haha sure, I'm just thinking capoeira requires a lot of watching the other player, everyone moment you're not watching your opponent, is a chance for him to get you. and even slow there are moments where you need to use your peripherals because you're facing the other way after a movement.

i like the idea though

That idea came from here: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/2163819/ its something that caught my attention and seems like a very cool thing to do.
I guess its easier to not think of sex all the time when you're hanging out with other furfriends or in cons and just generally doing something unrelated to sex with other furs.

I would agree that porn is a big part of being a furry, but not EVERYTHING! That's what the public gets wrong. I'd love to have my own fursuit, but who many people here would want to where something like that during sex? That's what one of my friends seems to think it's about. :(

Do they know?  No.  It's not because I am embarrassed or afraid or worried how they might react if they found out.  They do not know because I simply have not found any good reasons for their need to know.  I realized a long time ago that while we might share the same roof, I was old enough to have privacy and they did not need to know every detail in my life, as I had thought necessary in the past.  I can have my own secrets. 

That being said, I have also tried to lay the bedrock so that either if the circumstances necessitated my revelations or if I came to the decision on my own, they would not be caught completely unawares.  There is my History Honours essay all about Furries that they have never seen but might easily read in order to get the right facts.  I have let it be known that I am actively searching for Bear, Fox and Wolf imagery.  I have collected half a dozen Fox plushies over these past months and displayed them prominently.  When I visited Disney World this past spring I was adamant that I meet the Fur Characters for the first time (as opposed to running in fear). 

And how have they responded?  Well, my Mother appears to mind the least.  She did, after all, give me the Robin Hood: Most Wanted Edition and a Fox tree ornament last Christmas.  My Dad doesn't seem to care one way or another, and my brother is a mundane completely disinterested with my life (as usual).
