lol@@arkbark_
Honestly, this was super cool to watch! It makes me think about how often I feel about my own family having totally no idea about furry as both a hobby but also how its a big part of my life. It's encouraging to see this. You were great at presenting it too!
OMG THANK YOU!!!! Rewatching it, I definitely need to work on eliminating filler words like "like" and "um"; I use them WAY too much.
But yeah! I am very lucky that my family was receptive and respectful. If they weren't, there is no WAY I would've ever done something like this haha. I knew going in that they'd be chill with it :3
Love it how your family was chill when you showed the presentation! I wish I could have done that with my family!!
They knew about it beforehand, so it wasn't news to them, lol. But yeah my family is awesome ^^
Arka, you did such a good job presenting furries to normies! Great examples. Very educational and easy to understand the basics - i love it and your cute personality!
THANK U AHZI!!!! And yeah; there's so much to talk about that it was hard to limit the total time to 30 minutes (15 mins presenting and 15 mins of QnA). But thank you thanksss!!!! I love rur cute personality too!!!!

This is so rad! Thank you for doing this and for sharing it with the rest of us! I think that it's really cool that you were able to share, and that your family did something like this
IKR!!!! Thank you so much Bowie!!! And thank you for watching; I put a lot of time and effort into it so I'm glad you enjoyed!!!!
So wholesome watching a family accepting someone being different
IKR!!!
I wish I had a presentation when I told my family I was a furry! Can't wait to see you again at f²!!
LOL they already knew at the time I presented... but they didn't really know what it meant!
And yah!!! See u soon!!!
Wonderful presentation! This was very heartwarming to watch. I love your suit's design and your eyes are so cool! Stay safe!
Awww, thank you!! Thats very kind of you to say that and it means a lot
This was amazing loved every minute ❤
Also HOW DID YOU DO THIS I COULD NEVER 😭
LOL it took a bit for me to get to this point. Plus my family already knew haha
this was so well put together and fun to watch!
thank you!!
Omg you are awesome! I’ve never seen someone give a presentation to their family about furry. Cool family! Cool Barka!
OMG thank you so much!! thank youuu
This was actually pretty cool. Since she asked about how you see you should have had them try it on! 😄
LOL that wouldve been fun! Not sure if they wouldve been interested though haha
Cool to see this! Especially someone also in MN. I’ve had troubles finding others in the community nearby
OMG! Yeah MN furs has their own website and everything (www.mnfurs.org/event-calendar/), it's pretty great. Ive been thinking about getting more involved!
But yeah defo come to Furry Migration. Its a great con.
@@arkbark_ I’ve been wanting to go to a con but don’t know anyone to go with :/ And I’ll check out the website. Thank you!! ^_^
@@just_justin7 there's a discord server exactly for that purpose! If u want I can send u the link ^^

@@just_justin7 My bad!! I just saw this.
discord.gg/mnfurs
I love this, I wanna show it to my family!
Thank you!!! Im glad you liked it haha
Great video Arka!
Thanks!
You have the biggest balls for this.
Thanks LOL
Your family seems cool, you're brave for this
Thanks!!!
Very well done explanation on our fandom very well done
thank you!!
It was derived from a science fiction convention. Back in the 70s, 90 80s watch The Documentary from ash Coyote.
Yep! I actually mention Ash Coyote in the video
2016 made me think "zootopia." that was pretty popular then?
what made me a furry is...anime. - me watching the "one stormy night" movie in 2008: "cringe! why'd that goat guy get with that wolf man ?? sinful"
- me watching one piece in 2010: "you know...maybe furries can be cool ??"
- me watching & reading all of hunterxhunter in 2013, seeing it explore many facets of what it would mean to have anthro animals irl: "aww heck, guess i totally am a furry"
- re-watching one stormy night in 2016 "aw shid...i am so much like mei, falling in love with some gabu-wolf man last thanksgiving...honestly, that oughta be my sona !!!!"
yes, i am so gay for many wolves or other canines
LMAOOO the lore runs so deep!!!! and yeah I think Zootopia was very popular in 2016
more community than a fandom, yeee
Hi Arka! It's Fen from Madison Furry Bowling. I enjoyed meeting you again last night! So much fun with that active German shepherd!
Hi fen!!!! Hehehe yeah!! I love talking with you always!! Excited to make a video interviewing u at AC (or we could do it at a local meet if u wanted!)
@@arkbark_ Sounds good Arka probably best at a local meet as I am still undecided but thinking about Anthro. I am not really good at improptu as I tend to get tongue tied when I am put on the spot but I am willing to try. Definitely not as active as you are. You are so full of vitality! Your one amazing GS and your excitment carries over in all that you do and is infectious and draws in others around you. You definitely have an infectious personality! Great to see and a definite virtue! Keep it up! Hugs!
@@madisonmustang140 OMG THANK YOU!!!! YOURE SO SWEET FEN
That sounds good but how do I get my email privately to you so its not posted here@@arkbark_
That sounds good Arka by writing up a list of questions that might be a good ice breaker which might lead to coming up with some of my own questions but I warn you be prepared to get your ear talked off! lol!@@arkbark_
congrats for having the confidence to do this-
lol thanks!! my family is super supportive so it was v easy ^^
What's up, dawg?
Whats up silly goofy dude!!! How did you find this so fast haha
@@arkbark_ I turned on notification and it popped up as soon as you uploaded.
@@GrandmasterShadow666 DANG!!! I hope you enjoyed the video then!!! Im honored that you had notifications on for me haha
Yooo who is this cool person? I wanna meet 'im
i know who you are
meanwhile Im scared of anyone using my computer because of furry stuff they may find...
lmao, that was me 3 years ago. i have come a very long way haha
@@arkbark_ lol, love you know that... You know maybe that can happen to me too. And do you have any tips on the topic? im not from the US, im Ecuadorian.
@@Whiskerflux i mean for me, moving out of my house and going to college was a huge step. Just going to a furry con was a huge deal and really changed my life haha
Idk about any cons in Ecuador, but I know there's a pretty well-attended one in Brazil... check out furry cons.com if you're interested
But yeah it takes a lot of time, and taking small steps going out of your your comfort zone!
@@arkbark_ Thanks for the advice!
Ignore the positive comments , hate from Thailand ❤️
HAHAHAHAHAHA OMG 🤣🤣🤣🤣 thanks LOL
yo! cool and incredible fursuit!
thank you!!!
@@arkbark_ you’re welcome! You’re amazing and incredible remember that! :D
@@feger9066 AAAA STOPP 😄😄😄😄wagging tail profusely haha THANK YOU!!!
no! youre amazing and thats a fact! :D@@arkbark_
@@feger9066 no YOU'RE cuter!!! 😂😂
What
If I did this I'd be disowned 💀
NOOOOO im srry ur famil is not tolerant :(
Slay
Bruh can’t relate. I’m just an 18 year old nerd who likes Halo and who is addicted to caffeine and going to the gym and am now abusing thousands of dollars worth of anabolic steroids… I also don’t like Furries (from a personal experience of being traumatized as a child by furries)
Sorry to hear about that Rascal!
If I said I was a furry to my dad it'd probably be like when I told him I am Ace hes medical school side would have been like humans arn't Asexual XD
LMAOOOO something that's always slightly bothered me is that "furry" was originally used as an adjective. I kind of wish the fandom was called something different because it's kind of like saying "I am a tall" or "I am a stupid"
😮
bro....horrendous
is that caillou in your profile lmao
your parents have failed you.
i dont understand this comment can you please explain with more clarity
@@arkbark_ smartest degenerate furry
@@aquatic4425what's a furry??? 😂😂💯 💯
@@arkbark_ its degeneracy.
@@arkbark_ you haven't been taught moral standards.
Grow up. Repent in Jesus Christ name. Amen!
Thanks for your feedback Rose! I hope you have a lovely day! Amen 🙏🙏🙌🙌💯💯
Jesus doesn't condone hate and bigotry. Remember that.
@@cyberwolf_1013 I'm praying for you all in Jesus name. Amen. ✝️
@@rose.888Thank you so much for your well wishes! Being a furry is not about sin, it's about making people happy and supporting one another. If you have any questions or want to talk more about this, just ask! It's hard to offend me, so no need worry about that.
Again thank you for your words of support; i hope you have a great day!
WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU DO THAT
The opportunity presented itself and this is something that I've wanted to do for a long time! It was kind of cathartic for me haha
