I made of my fursonas both me as I am and what I consider my "Übermensch", my ideal self as much as it goes in spirit anyway: - Self-analysis is an important skill, expression through symbolism tells much of you and that allows you to understand who and what you are. - Regarding an ideal self, no matter how unreachable it may seem, go nuts and really give it a form, put everything in it and then slowly dilute to what makes you feel the rawest of feelings and then give it an inviting smile. Your future self-representation in the future may change but the second should be like an iron pillar. This is probably the wrong class but it's the only class I can fit in my very, very busy schedule and I totally am not just doing the bare minimum to pass the year, so allow me this small tangent about why it's ok for fursonas to have a monster cock.

@@TorManiak Wow, you're actually getting me to think here. I was ready to say yes Sonic characters and OC's would probably count as a 3/3.5 on the furry scale, but at the same time I definitely wouldn't classify sonic porn as yiff. In fact - speaking as a furry - furry artists who draw the stuff tend to alter the designs heavily to align more with typical furry tastes. So while adult content isn't the only way to gauge this stuff I think it can be used to highlight the differences between fandoms in some ways. I guess Sonic style characters like with MLP would just be considered furry adjacent. Little separate islands not really a part of the furry scale, but still worth being aware of when exploring a Yiffology major.

[@misky1952]

A few corrections and additives: 1) Fishes and amphibians tend to fall under the same category as reptiles, which aren't reptiles, they're usually refered to as scalies. 2) A big part of making a fursona is the sense of freedom in representing yourself, so I think it's important to clarify you aren't obligated to fall into any set category but that that categorization is a way of classifying certain fursonas. You can have multiple animals, you can have made up species of animals that resemble IRL animals, etc. 3) Big miss in this one, protogens. Protogens are a massive part of the community and are basically a staple nowadays, they're very common and very formulaic and so, easily classifiable and identifiable. I think you should've added it to the classification. 4) Ferals. In my opinion, you should've definitely mentiones feral fursonas, for there are ferals, and there are quite a bit of them. They're widly different from anything else and thus I think they deserved a mention. Overall, great full video. Very informative and surprisingly nonjudgmental unlike most normal people talking about furries.

Is it bad that I just now found out that the "Lusty Argonian Maid" thing did in fact come from Skyrim and wasn't just a fan-made thing... that is depicted in various "fanart"

[@Blama_]

I wonder who decided to put that in Oblivion lol

[@exar_mesh8239]

Hey professor, does plant anthro's count as furries? They technically aren't an animal, so maybe that's a different category

[@SparkyDaProtogen]

@Exar_Mesh Technically no because the definition is "a person who has interest or likes anthropomorphic animals"

[@currentquiet9591]

Probably technically an "other kin" but idk its a really wide umbrella term

I think people choose wolf-like fursonas for their similarities with us humans. Both beings are social animal that are destined to die when alone and are at their strongest, even surpassing stronger entities and hardships when they work together sorry the english btw
