On PR, negative stereotypes, and furry fandom

Public service announcement time, folks.

If you keep shouting about negative stereotypes of furry fandom and "that's not what we're all about", well... all you're doing is bringing attention to those stereotypes. They'll still be associated with furry, regardless of what you as an individual do. Right now, we are doing a better job at promoting negative stereotypes about ourselves than any troll could ever hope to do.

Wanna do something productive? Try talking about positive aspects of the furry fandom. Mention how nearly every convention is a non-profit, how furry conventions have raised tens of thousands of dollars for charity, talk about some of the cool fursuits, or some other positive way that furry has impacted your life.

We can't control the trolls. But we can control ourselves, and what we say. Let's make the most of it.

Radio Interview about Furry Fandom on Dublin 98 FM

Well, that was fun.

Seems I just burned through half a month's worth of bandwidth in 12 hours. :-P

So I've copied the file over to another server where the bandwidth is cheaper.

Thanks,

Radio Interview about Furry Fandom on Dublin 98 FM

Earlier today, Dublin 98 FM did an interview about the Furry Fandom with Uncle Kage. (They originally contacted me, but I don't make the best spokesman, so I referred them to Kage. :-) )

Thanks to Audio Hijack, I managed to capture the stream to disk. It is available for a short time:

The file is about 14 Megs and the interview lasts for about 9 minutes. Be sure to listen for some amusing commentary from the hosts after the interview.

Furry Fandom

Group Photo From Ground Level

This is the part of my site where you'll find furry stories which I have placed on this site, as well as other related documents. If you have NO idea what the words "furry" or "anthropomorphics" mean, then the first thing you'll want to do is read this FAQ. If you're still having trouble understanding what furry is all about, or have any questions, feel free to contact me.

Furry Stories
This is where all of the furry stories that are on this site can be found.

If you are a Lion King fan, you'll want to check these out. The Chronicles of the Pridelands are a series of stories that are written about events that take place before, during, and after the movie. We're talking novel length stories, here!
