[Bronies Are Cool]

So the furry forum seems kind of accepting of me pretty quick. I already kind of feel like im a normal user there already.

I have spiked a tiny amount of interest there about music responding to someone who asked if anyone makes music and then I made a thread about DAWs.

I also had made a comment to someone who described himself/herself as shy and timid and not assertive. which reminded me instantly of fluttershy and so yea.
furries seem kind of cool

[Bronies Are Cool]

i might have to change my name to "Bronies are cool and furries are kind of cool too i guess"

[Bronies Are Cool]

Im actually quite liking that other forum. I have found another brony on there (who identifies as a pony fursona)
anyway, I might get my own fursona. which will just be a pony OC of me. lol "weird" because I claim to not be a furry

maybe they will suck me in
(i doubt it)

I was on a dancefloor tonight, and they played some popular songs, and I didn't enjoy them one bit :(
It's weird how moddern dance music today is to slow to bounce to :I

Ok. Here is a question I have based in what the furries are saying.
Basically, many of them consider bronies to be furries.
It's a double edged sword to me.
I'd say that only some are furries.
Because I'm starting to see that furry is kind of a broad spectrum.
Like, they say that the ponies have the humanistic qualities like the fursonas. And bronies who enjoy that about the ponies can be called a furry.
Or... People who draw the ponies on anthropomorphic form are also considered furry.
Because a furry is someone who like anthropomorphic art like the ponies.

So, are a lot of us bronies really also unintentionally furry?

[Bronies Are Cool]

What if we were furries all along and we didn't even know it

No, because "Brony" and "Furry" are just titles. You are not a brony unless you call yourself one. Same goes with furries.

[Bronies Are Cool]

They may be titles but they have meanings.
Like, "dog" isn't just a title. You can't say that your pug isn't a dog because you don't want to call it that. Your pug fits the definition description of being a dog, so it's a dog.

Likewise I think applies to bronies and furries. If you like mlp, you are a brony. Regardless of if you want to associate with other bronies or the cloppers. And furries are people who like anthropomorphic art, not just those who have fursonas or dress as a furry character.

I like mlp so I'm a brony. I can't deny that.
Mlp has anthropomorphic characters.
So that kind of puts me under the "furry" iron curtain.
As well as anyone else who likes mlp and the characters. Right?

[ph00tbag]

I've always defined "furry" to be someone who identifies in some way (emotionally, spiritually, sexually, what have you) as an animal which is not a human. They feel a dysphoria with certain aspects of their being which are irreversibly human. Some bronies feel this, certainly, and if they so designated themselves, would qualify as furries. However, the majority of bronies just like MLP, and have no horse-like identity whatsoever, so calling them furries is really quite a misnomer.

Does that mean people who just like disney or any other thing with anthromorphic characters are also a part of the "furry community?"

Like, I like Lion king as much as the next guy, but that doesnt really mean I wanna walk around in a neongreen fursuit or whatever it is furries do.

Pretty sure thats called "otherkin"

I guess I was misinformed. I thought the terms were interchangeable.

[Stuntddude]

Stuntdude?

It is me, right? I don't know anybody else fitting the description.

Yes it is you.
Did you like something I posted on Facebook recently? Because I made a post and only one person liked it and he has the same image as you for their picture. But a different name. They go by miles fogle

That's me! What post was it, out of curiosity? It's weird to think I'd run into you on Facebook of all places.

YARRRR!!!

Also, wat? Could you explain what the meaning of "Pirate themed" is a bit closer?

It was the Noah Kriska Music page post about an album update.

...actually, I totally forgot to post this, but my band is playing a Mexican themed music (specifically metalcore/hardcore) festival this october called "Fiesta a Cielo". We're gonna wear ponchos and sombreros and luchador masks! :D

Man I wish it was pirates though (even though there's gonna be Mexican food and I love Mexican food!). Because I have a pirate costume just begging to be worn :c

People are encouraged to dress up as pirates, there's a contest for best dressed, the events around the music are all piratey stuff and I think a few of the bands are pirate themed. So pretty much "pirate themed" in the way you'd expect.
