So the image of the female fox is the end of a realization and the beginning of a journey and I'm unsure where it will take me.

I'm sure it will be a ~~hilarious~~ exciting and entertaining journey. Try to remember you are a human male and not an indiscriminately gendered 50,000 year old Star Goddess Vixen and you should be fine.

Okay so this was posted after my blog but I'll keep it in mind changed the NSFW pictures to links since I can't change the topic name.

Anything that involves becoming more comfortable with yourself is awesome in my books. Grats for being able to do so!

Good read, I agree with Seppolevne completely, anything where you are becoming more comfortable with yourself and who you are is good for you.
If you think you may be furry, go talk to people like that. Generally I've found any alt-community is extremely willing to explain everything, listen to your experience and give you advice on where you should go with it.

I've always found the fact that the internet is ok with all sorts of alt-cultures, but when it comes to furry, everyone gets suddenly hostile. I'm not a furry, but I also strongly associate with cats, so I know where you're coming from on this.

Eh. The internet is hostile to pretty much everyone. If you go to 4chan it's not just furries who are being made fun of, it's everyone. The rest of the internet will join in with furries though, because they don't understand it. The internet at large isn't going to join in so hard with racial groups or anything like that because they know people who fall into those categories. Take something they don't have a lot of experience with though, and it's way easier to start making jokes and furfag comments.

As to OP, go hard man. If you start going around in public wearing cat-tails or anything, you're going to have to be ready to put up with some abuse, same as any sub-culture. The privacy of your own house though? Screw it. Your sex life, your business. So long as you understand that you shouldn't go around ramming it down people's throats, whatever you find attractive is your own deal.

Oh wow... Whether this is serious or not, I kinda understand what you mean by having a female side. Though, honestly, I think the reason most people regard that as "feminine" side is the same way that masculinity has been exaggerated in media, meaning to be "manly" you essentially have to be as close as a human can be to Chuck Norris. Anything outside of that is stamped as feminine. My theory? Most men do have a feminine side, though how significant it is depends on the person.
