Does anyone out there understand the whole "furry" thing? Could you please explain it to me? I seriously don't get it at all. Makes no sense whatsoever. Talking animal comics? I feel like I must be missing something... totally missing something. This has to be the strangest genre ever created. I mean, who? why?
Art and entertainment celebrated by furry fandom include fictional work that employs the concept of animal characters with human characteristics, rather than any particular type of fiction. For this reason, any work, in any medium, may be considered part of the furry genre simply by inclusion of an anthropomorphized animal character, although such characters are most often seen in comics, cartoons, animated films, allegorical novels, and video games. The science fiction and fantasy genres make frequent use of anthropomorphism, and as a result, are especially popular in furry fandom.....
Sufficient interest and membership has enabled the creation of many furry conventions in North America and Europe. The world's largest furry convention is Anthrocon, held annually in Pittsburgh in July. One convention, Further Confusion, held in San Jose each January, closely follows Anthrocon in scale and attendance.
