Furry sexuality (yiffing)
-------------------------
98) How would you describe your sexuality?
Inactive.
You can either specify your answer as a number on a scale from 0-9:
0 = 'I'm not interested in this at all';
9 = 'I practice this a lot'
Or simply by checking the box:
X = 'Yes'
[x] heterosexual
[ ] homosexual
[ ] bisexual
[ ] transexual
[ ] group sex
[ ] outdoor sex
[ ] fur-suit sex (whilst dressed up in furry animal costumes)
[ ] zoo (with RL animals, may or may not be emotionally attached to them)
[ ] plushophile (loves and/or has sex with plushie animals)
[ ] toonophile (attracted to cartoon characters, especially furries)
[ ] TS (TinySex - sex over the Internet, e.g. using FurryMuck or IRC)
99) Does outdoors sex make you feel more furry?
I’ve never had sex, so I wouldn’t know.
100) Do you prefer humans, animals, plushies, furries, or are they equal?
I’d prefer humans, then probably animals.
101) Is your sexual orientation with humans the same as it is with animals?
Yes, but I’m sexually inactive so it’s a moot point.
102) What are your favourite animals/characters for zoophilia
/zoosexuality/plushiophilia /toonophilia/ inflatable animal sex?
I’m not into those things, so I wouldn’t know.
103) In what aspects of your sexuality are you open? Are non-furries
aware of
your furry sexuality (if appropriate)
Like I said, sexually inactive.
104) Do you enjoy sex with animals and humans simultaneously?
Never done that.
105) Are any of your plushies anatomically correct?
I don’t have any plushies.
106) It is a common case for many furries to live thier lives as
heterosexual, and then through furry to discover their attraction
for the same sex, (be it same sex humans or furries) - is this the
case with you?
I’m heterosexual both human and furry.
107) Has your discovery of being furry made you re-evaluate your sexuality?
No.
108) Do you feel you are more open sexually due to furriness?
No.
109) Do you enjoy casual sex with furries/non furries?
Once again, I’m a virgin.
110) Do you practice safe sex?
If you mean by not having it, then yes.
111) How do your masturbation fantasies involve furries? (if appropriate)
I don’t do that.
112) Does sex in a fursuit make you feel more furry?
Never done that.
113) Do you compare a relationship (sexual or not) as being analogous to
a pack or pride behaviour?
I wouldn’t think it is.

Well, you might be surprised. Kentucky's not too different from
Tennessee in that regard but I've seen some stuff along those lines in
some of the better bookstores. {Joseph-Beth Booksellers has stores here
and in Ohio if you ever get there. Their website is
http://www.josephbeth.com/ You might be able to find some stuff there.}
And then there's always the internet. It just depends on where you look.
It's nice to see another southern fur 'round the place. Hope ta see ya
'round some.

I live in Elizabethton, probably the center of the Bible Belt, the fact
that I find RPGs in bookstores amazes me. The 'Net's not really an
option for me to find that stuff, my mom doesn't trust the 'Net with
credit cards and that whole deal, so I'm pretty much screwed.

Aeth!! Welcome. *hugs* Bet you were'nt expecting that. Nice to see you. But

background. Wow, you have a lot of pets. Uhhhh... sexually inactive, sexually

till I was 20. Don't tell anyone that.
But anyway, welcome again *hugs again*. Hope to see you around the NG a lot.

Holy damn!! Exact same time & situation for me; how very weird.
Found Furcadia by accident, then I found out about the furry
fandom / furry community as a result. What's your character
on Furcadia called, by the way?
Hm, this reminds me.. I should probably write a furvey myself.

Hello Aeth. Welcome home. At least, that's how it felt to me. While I'm
having a read of this here Furvey, help yourself to some food - there's
faggots (don't look at me like that! They're great big meatballs!),
cheese, pickles and probably some blackberry crumble if Russ hasn't
scoffed the lot already...

Same here. Starling (I think it was) suggested to me keeping a notebook

try that too. Though just what you'll end up writing is another
matter...

As far as the games go, have you tried alt.comp.freeware.games ?
Excellent place to ask about legal free games, as it's not infested
with W4R3Z D00DZ (or however the heck you spell it).

Yeah. I was pretty decent at it actually. When I played.
But it's an expensive hobby and I don't know anyone around here who
plays anymore. So I just let it slide.

It's not banned for blashphemy here (though the Fundies probably would
ban it if it were popular enough). I've got it on DVD, and before that
I saw it on a bootlegged tape.

Heh. I once had an early morning chemistry class where I'd occasionally
fall asleep while taking notes. The result was some pretty interesting
digressions, when I could understand them.
I've heard of experiments using electrodes to get crude maps of mental
images, I wonder if we could record dreams...

I remember a news article about them doing it with cats. What I don't
know is which part of the brain the "image" comes from:
outside world -->
retina -->
visual processing in brain --> (1) here, or
mental perception of images --> (2) here
conscious model of reality -->
(loops back to mental perception in dreams)
If it was (1) I don't think we could see dreams, but if it was (2) I
think we could.
It'd be neat to see what cats dream about, in any case.

Mind, you don't need to be in Tennessee for that sort of thing. Life of
Brian was banned in Swansea, that well-known hotbed of Welsh

Pretty soon the government will be able to control exactly what you

AFAIK it all started back with warez d00dz, people who crack the copy
protection on commercial software as a competition, to show their
skills. They'd boast in that sort of modified spelling, I guess because
they were bored and wanted to tweak english as much as code. When the
internet took off, so did the "dialect" and nowadays it's used more in a
sort of ironically self-aware mocking mode than seriously. Although
nowadays I've been told everything is both earnest and ironic at the
same time, so you can never tell if someone is serious or not. I just
don't know anymore. I'm going to go hide now. *sucks thumb*

If you REALLY want to see cats in a different way, try this web site -
www.rathergood.com. Check out the viking cats and the nothern cats, it's
all good harmless fun. :) Until you get onto the stuff with George Michael
and Simply Red, that is.
