    Also, be aware that suits can be “deceitful”. A female fursuiter may seem flat chested, a fursuit may have a dropped crotch. Be aware where you are touching them, so you don’t end up groping them. I’ve had that happen a few times in cosplay, and it is very uncomfortable.

  • @reptillicus4753
    @reptillicus4753 2 года назад +141

    Break the illusion and give someone a slap of reality by removing your fursuit head and glaring at them in disappointment with your human face when they won’t leave you alone. It’s pretty effective sometimes in getting people to remember “Ooohh yeah that’s a person not a big stuffed animal.”

    There was this guy that used to go to our furbowl meetups. He was, like, late-20's/30ish? I remember I was 19 when I went to my first furbowl. I went with no one and fursuited and kinda just stood around, occasionally approaching a friend from the group chat and some others approaching me to compliment my suit. It included this guy. I never talked to the guy and I assumed he was nice; he was there with his mum. She kept basically smacking my beak and shouting "boop." Shit hurt my nose and she wouldn't stop; she dressed in a dirty cat onsee and said her sona pooped poptarts or something? It was like a 55-year-old never lost her 2010's LOL SO RANDOMZ phase.
    Anyways, this guy was a serial groper. Wish I'd known that, beforehand. When she was done assualting my new fursuit head & nearly breaking my nose, she asked for a pic between us two. He put his hand around my waist -- a bit awkward, but I was young and didn't know how to speak up. When she turned around, I felt his hand leave my waist to grope my upper thigh & ass. I tried to pull back and look at hime, but he made an 'innocent' "hmm?" He wouldn't let me go until a new friend rescued me to have me take a pic with some youngfurs who said I was their first birdsuiter they saw, in person. They were much sweeter, than the creep! Turns out, the one who pulled me away, was also groped by him. She was 17 and he apparently... was a bit TOO excited and rubbed it on her arm, while she was sitting. He did it again the next furmeet and this time, the younger girl brought her boyfriend and he saw. He screamed at the guy, which got Manic's -our organiser- attention. I only saw him one-other-time a year later and then never again. It was when Manic was out of town, I believe.
    He is an amazing organizer who kicks out creeps from furbowls and a local, small convention he helps head called "WPAFW." Including my rapist. I always felt bad and even apologized for being a magnet of trouble. He said it was never my fault and to never be afraid to speak up and to help others, whenever I can. I'm older now and take his advice with stride. Tbh, some dudes in the Pittsburgh community now refer to me as the local, "aggressive, man-hating lesbian." If it keeps their hands-asses away from me and others, I'm fine with that title - as inaccurate as it actually is. (the aggressive part is cause I yelled at this guy who snapped a girl's bra, once. I am such a menace, I know /s)

    I got to fursuit at a local non furry con recently and it was really nice though there were definitely some ppl that went in for a hug without consent,petting me or just got in too close and weird.
    Most times people asked if it was even ok to take a pic but those few odd encounters were sure awkward/uncomfortable thankfully they didn’t last long.
    As for hugs I usually got asked before the people hugged me,some went in without asking and it’s conflicting because aside from those that ask (those are 100% ok) some of the “surprise” hugs felt too forced and where I couldn’t move or was worried for my suit while others were wholesome and nice; I guess it’s odd because I do like hugs but the way some went about it made me uncomfy (sometimes can be because of me being worried about my suit)

    I think the opposite should also be addressed. Fursuiters need to ask non suiters for permission too! I was at a con, and a suiter came up to me right after I had got out of reg line, and tried to mess with me (in a friendly way). It was really awkward because I was trying to find my friends that I was supposed to meet up with, and now I have this big fuzzy dog costume jumping around me in circles. I kinda froze up idk, it was a weird situationl.

    Great informative video, and yes please do that comprehensive list of fursuiting etiquette, that would be helpful for any new furries.
    May I add two more notes onto the list:
    (1) Don't approach a fursuiter with a dirty hand or food on your hand. Fursuits are expensive and difficult to clean, and dirtying that fursuit with these stuffs can permanently ruining it.
    (2) Don't poke (or even get close to) the eyes of the fursuit, and that include throwing thing toward their face or eye. The eyes are made up of fragile mesh, and doing so can damage the suit or worse injuring the fursuiter's eye. (On hindsight, probably just don't throw things at fursuiters without permission)

    Alright, this might sound weird. Given how only fursuiters use the headless lounge since it’s a place to relax and cool off a little, are their handlers allowed to follow them? A friend wants to get a fursuit and wear it at a con, and as their only furry friend, I might wind up assisting him and don’t want to commit a faux pas out of misguided assumptions.

    Thanks for making this video! It's really important to talk about this stuff. I actually have a story about fursuiting consent (or rather a lack of it). I remember when I was on a furwalk in my kemono suit just talking to a friend. A guy in his mid 20s comes up to me, picks me up (mind you I was pretty tall) , spinns me around, and NUZZLES MY ARMPIT. I was so weirded out but I didn't say anything because I was only 13 at the time. Also someone grabbed my butt on the same walk?? I mean I get people not knowing my age since they can't see my face, but that kind of fucked me up. I still regret not doing anything about it.

But it is extremely discomforting to me, but I encounter this constantly, all the time, multiple times a day. This is something that for me is exclusive for my S.O.'s, not someone I just met or even friends. Most people just try doing this stuff, without asking first.

    Honestly, despite you've likely mentioned con/fursuiter consent previously, its a good thing to bring up the facts frequently. There's always gonna be new or curious people. Vids like this save them from making those mistakes or at least shines light on how to go about consent at cons in a positive, respectful manner. I kinda feel like an ahole for saying this but I'll never fathom how people can be so oblivious or not read the room properly they lose all my respect and make me wanna actively avoid them... I'm referencing stuff like 'gagglers' or the ones who go full stalker mode on your a**. Ppl like that are obnoxious.

  • @DeputatKaktus
    @DeputatKaktus 2 года назад +6

    A lot of this boils down to "Common sense is not common anymore". Having been to some events as a photographer I have witnessed cosplayers who stood in a group with other people chatting and with a beverage in their hand, being physically dragged away and in front of a camera. In one such instance, some chick nearly ripped off a piece of a cosplayer's armor, shouting to her friend "Here, I got one!". And then she got all huffy when a group of people descended on her and her friend to let them know that what they did was - and I am paraphrasing here - not cool. I imagine the experience for fursuiters is at least 10x worse, given the limited visibility and all. And a spotter cannot be everywhere at the same time. Having a custom made, one-of-a-kind costume worth thousands of $$$ damaged or ruined by someone who just wants some Instagram clout would probably make me punch them in the throat.
    And then there are those "creepy pervy dude" photog types that show up with a big-a$$ telephoto lens that would make a seasoned NatGeo photographer hang their head in shame, to snap pictures of other people's crotch or cleavage. You all might know the type I am talking about. When I am around I somehow manage to stumble into their frame... On one occasion I asked one guy if he would like a pack of tissues for later when I caught a glimpse of his camera display while he was flicking through his latest shots. Many were of a woman's cleavage while she was bending down to search for something in her bag. At least one other shot was of a woman's rear end while she was leaning across something. He scuttled off quickly. Later that day while chatting with a few people during a coffee break I learned from one of the cosplayers that this guy had been following her and her friends around all day up to that point. Wherever they went, he would show up, and at one point he made a very suggestive comment to one of them. Something about going to his place later and taking a few more pictures (including the wiggling eyebrows....ugh). The young woman in question said she felt like she needed a shower after that creepy guy went away after his advance. Never saw him again that day. Hope he was kicked out, since a few other people at the same table also said they remember him and were creeped out. Screw that guy. He is one of those giving everyone with a camera a bad rep.
    Sorry for the rant. But this really gets my blood boiling.

    As a fursuiter, having a handler is super important! My boyfriend and one of my sisters were awesome handlers, carrying me by the arm when there were difficult paths, managing me and people for pics, telling me when people say something, or directly saying no, meanwhile my other sister just abandoned me in a crowd of children who wanted to take pics with me for halloween lmao, so make sure your handler is a trustworthy person.

    What if there is a keyword someone can say if running to the headless lounge, and someone asks for something.
    Something like _"Headless!"_ or _"Overheat!"_ or maybe even a sign from sign language, like the T for timeout.
    Pretty much anything, but made universal to quickly communicate in those situations?

    I have a bit of a crush on wolvinny I think... she once met with me at the retro gaming swap meet before, and I got so curious... I hadn't known what a fursuit was back then, so I wondered what game her character came from.😊 she was very sweet about it.

    Just got back into the community, before I was only able to be an artist because my parents didn’t approve but now I’m in my 20s. I’m about to start working on my first suit soon, my biggest fear is going to my first con and doing things that are frowned upon. I do thank you for making this video Beta! I have a lot more common sense than some of the folks you talked about and really wouldn’t try to impede, but I didn’t really think about fire hazards. This video was extremely helpful for a “new fur”

    Never gone to a con, so feel free to disagree or answer negatively. When you see someone in fursuit fainting in hallways or similar, it's okay to try to remove the fursuit head, even of the risk to damage it, or it's better to ask someone who is more experienced? Just a curiosity

      @FowlorTheRooster1990 2 года назад +1

      That would be different, if they collapse it is important to remove any piece of clothing necessary (e.g fur suit) to perform the necessary first aid. if they collapse just and hit the floor, be very careful and only move them if there is an imminent danger such as a fire. Any other thing such as removing the suit is not a good idea as they could have a neck injury so its best to leave them until professionals ( eg paramedics ) arrive, because they know how to deal with potential neck injuries and have the equipment to help with it.
      Edit: I am not an expert.

    I think the biggest thing about going to cons is that you have to keep in mind that nobody has any obligations to you, you shouldn't expect anything from anyone except basic decency, being there is a privilege. Everyone there, no matter how popular, is a private person with their own right to privacy.

      That place is for furries that need to cool down and not pass out. So it'd probably be best to keep out people who don't need to be there. Not tryna be rude, but it would be annoying if you were trying to go in there to cool down and a bunch of people who don't need to are taking up space.

    BETA HELP! How do i convince my moms (yes moms i have lesbian parents) that me being a furry isn’t some “sexual fetish thing” because we have gotten into screaming matches before when i tried to tell them id like to make a fursuit or something like that probably a partial or id like to commission someone to do so cuz i don’t have the faith in myself to make it good, BUT they wont pay attention to me or listen and take into account what im trying to tell them when i tell them its just a hobby and i really like the art and creativity and support in the furry fandom, also looking at the fact that I AM STILL A MINOR i am not even close to interested in what they think me wanting to be a furry is, anyways i want to go to the anthrocon block party in July(which would be my first con and i live like a little more than a half an hour drive from Pittsburgh and where the block party will be taking place) but idk how to tell them/ask them without getting into a huge fight again:^

    • @VestedUTuber
      @VestedUTuber 2 года назад +5

      Unfortunately, if your parents aren't willing to listen to you and you're a minor, there's not much you can do. You can try sending them cute fursuiting videos (Telephone and Sherbet are good options, the former due to amazing and adorable character acting and the latter due to the different things he does in suit) or good, informative articles about the fandom, but that's about it.
      I will say that getting a fursuit before you've stopped growing is a terrible idea, that's potentially several grand down the drain when you inevitably outgrow it. If you do end up getting one, get a partial.

    Forgive me for my ignorance I've never been to a convention. But judging from this entire videos meets are... the worst? Your either there with a fursuit, miserable, hot, crowded, and maybe even harassed. But if you DON'T have one your more than likely being an issue to someone who IS in a fursuit. Don't take this the wrong way I'll practice each and everything in this video if I ever do go to a convention however I'm worried I'm gonna be a problem to every suiter there just for them being swarmed. And even if you aren't doing that your not exactly in the right space since everyone else will be. All over the suiters. So either the attention is on you, and your having the worst time of your life, it's not on you and your being an issue, OR its not on you and your sitting there alone thinking why tf I even came here if everyone just cares about fursuits.
    It's no wonder people think you need a fursuit to be a furry. Without one your irrelevant?
