Furry is just a label.
For the sake of my own health and interests, I've left FH and I won't be looking back.

No, and it can be a misconception when my character is represented in fursona art. My character is only one thing and how she is placed in art is just for fun lol.

Furry is basically a fandom where all people that like anthro animals can join in and share the interest with others that do the same, so yes you dont have to be a furry when you like anthro animals :P, when you dont consider yourself one, you dont have to be one

Nope, but I don't have any hate for those who consider themselves such.

No
The Japanese concept of wabisabi:
The closest concept in english would be 'rustic'
They might have an old thing, one example is a favourite bowl or dish, it's broken, pieces are missing, why fix it?  With gold and pieces from other dishes?
"Because it was my favourite & I like it"

I think I consider myself a furry? More like a newbie I guess haha. A friend of mine helped me create a fursona whom I love, and I've always liked anthropomorphic animals. Most of the furry community seems really nice too!

I'm not one - I only draw animals because they're the easiest for me. xD

I don't consider myself a furry, but I do like to draw myself as an animal. The furry community is too much of a mess.

Kind of a tricky question. I think literally speaking I probably would have to be considered one, because I do make fursonas and have a ton of animal characters and engage in the community. However I've never really been involved in the legit anthro two-legged characters that much (most of my characters are feral and stay on all fours :]) and never really go near the fursuiting side, which I understand isn't the only definition of a furry, but definitely is what the label brings to mind and usually implies to me. I also do not fall under the category of wanting to be my fursona or an animal like some definitions imply, it's all just for fun for me.

Then again I still be roleplaying make believe animals and making art of them and calling myself a furry as a joke every two seconds so...

In conclusion, yeah :/

(also if you're someone who can proudly rock the furry label, especially outside of furry-orientated places, you are very courageous and i admire you! keep rockin' on)
