Furry
Definition
A furry is an anthropomorphic (humanoid) animal character. "Furry" can also refer to fans of such characters, who are members of the furry fandom. Despite being called furries, a furry does not necessarily have to have fur. A furry can be any kind of animal, as long as it has humanoid attributes. For instance, an anthropomorphic reptile is referred to as a scaly.
Furries As Anthro Characters
Furries originally started out as fictional characters in cartoons, comics, and Egyptian mythology. A furry is an animal character that walks on two legs, talks, and is basically just a human with funky ears, a tail, and overgrown body hair. Ironically, some of these "furries" don't even have fur. Go figure.
Examples:
- Dr. Rabbit
- Every character in Star Fox, Samurai Pizza Cats, and the Sonic the Hedgehog series, as well as the movie Robin Hood (aside from Robotnik and Dr. Eggman's families, plus other incidentals.)
- Klonoa
- Bowser and his children.
- King Dedede (Maybe...)
- Escargoon
- Darkwing Duck
- Donald Duck
- Mickey Mouse
- Actually, it's an in-proportionate ammount of Disney characters.
- The Cheetahmen (from Action 52)
- Sabrina Skunk
Furries As A Fandom
Members of the Furry Fandom can have varying ammounts of interest in Furry characters. Some merely like to watch cartoons starring anthro characters, others create furry art, and still others go to the extremes of going to conventions and wearing fursuits.
Furries As A Fetish
Some people like to look at furry porn and somehow have sex in their fursuits with other furries. The act of furry sex is known as yiffing, and pornographic material featuring furries is known as yiff. Someone who gets off on yiff is known as a Furry Fetishist, a Furvert, or a Furfag.
