#taboo
recently this popped up on my dashboard, and made me pause. While a taboo subject, that mainstream media hasn’t helped. I’m not here to change your mind, believe what you want about the furry fandom. although, my suit has been such a benefit to me in more ways that I could explain. if I could. this fandom has also been good to me pushing me from my comfort zone, I have friends, confidence and more self esteem than I’ve had in years. however, this also made me think of a good friend I had back in college whom disowned me without even asking why I enjoyed this ‘hobby’ or even telling me they were uncomfortable or no longer speaking to me until over a year later.
I find their reaction childish and learning of all this still hurts. clearly they were never a friend, is something so flimsy can destroy what he had.
