Title: Are you ridiculed by just different?
Post by: Mario583 on March 10, 2009, 02:18:20 PM
What I mean is, do you get crap from other people for being, Hispanic, Black, Jew, Furry, or any other?

I feel:

Furries are animals. Having no conscious mind, it wouldn't be wrong to kill them.

I think you're a horrible person to say that furries face the worst discrimination. How many people have died because they were a furry? Now how many people have died just because they were gay or black? Yeah. Not much of a contest.

I get made fun of occasionally for being a swimmer. But I just realize that I'm probably in better shape than anyone who says that to me, so it's not a big deal.

It is, but what can you do. There isn't anything masculine about shaving all the hair off your body. :P

Just about.  xD

It comes with being in the Army, basically.  Whenever we hang out with our friends, everyone gets ripped by everyone else by anything.  Whether it be skin,  what you believe in, ..basically everything. 

because I'm so pale, they always rip on me saying I'm a Vampire, and that I drink Clamato juice, and now my nickname is "Per se". 
Based off the South Park episode.

Nah, not really. Some people make a subtle hint that they think I'm gay, but they've never really done anything about it.
The thing they focus most on is my long hair. I don't think anybody at my school has even noticed that I shave my legs ^___^
Oh yeah, my mom, sister, and my sister's friends sometimes joke about my pale skin and dark room with vampire-related jokes.

At OP, furries definitely aren't hated that much. The furries I know would probably laugh at that image you posted, thinking it's a joke.

Why would you want to shave your legs? I do it for swimming and it's one of the most god-awful experiences.

No this guy is def right.

For being awkward, quite frequently. Social contracts mean very little to me, and I hardly care.

For showing any ounce of conservatism at a very liberal school. I dunno if ridiculed is quite the right word. More like OMG CONSERVATIVES CLUB BABY SEALS AND CONTRIBUTE TO GLOBAL WARMING. More hilarious than annoying.

Ok, this is a very long list:

I always want to do my test good.
I always begin to cry a little when I don't do a test good although I studied hard.
I can't do a lot of things (see other thread).
I'm the best student of my class (always been).
I always tell the teachers when students do something mean to me.
I only have 2 friends that only SOMETIMES are nice.

In short: I'm a loser. :(

When I had long hair (it was a few feet long), darn near every time I went into a store they'd send somebody to make sure I wasn't stealing things.

I've also been called gay maybe a dozen times or more. I'm straight, but I just have some kind of gay vibe that causes homophobes to hate me and homosexuals to awkwardly come on to me.

I decided to ask a friend of mine, who happens to be a furry, what he thinks about this claim that being a furry is harder than being gay, female, or non-white. This is how the conversation went.

Sawbones says:
Yo
Beatnik says:
There's a guy on a forum I go to
Beatnik says:
And he's claiming that being a furry is harder than being gay, a woman, or non-white. What do you think about that?
Beatnik says:
He made a whole thread about it. I was hoping you could give me some perspective.
Sawbones says:
Well...
Sawbones says:
...on one hand, it's true that, on the whole, being a furry still isn't accepted my the majority
Sawbones says:
Hence all the internet knee-jerking
Beatnik says:
"LUL I HAET FURFAGS etc."
Sawbones says:
But at the same time, there's no way that we've suffered like gays, women or non-whites have
Sawbones says:
It's ridiculous to say anything like that
Sawbones says:
It'd be like comparing a kick in the balls to WWII
Beatnik says:
There has never been a furry holocaust, and I highly doubt that many furries have lost jobs or loved ones because of their preferences.
Sawbones says:
Exactly.
Beatnik says:
Nobody's saying it's easy, but I think comparing it to racism and sexual prejudice is a little... Extreme
Sawbones says:
I challenge you to find any other furry who wouldn't say that was 100% refried bullpoop
Beatnik says:
Yeah. Thanks for backing me up. Do you mind if I post this in his thread?
Sawbones says:
Sure
Beatnik says:
Danke

I'm also pretty big, not exactly fat but fairly tall and heavily built. So, awkward in most sports... doesn't stop me from playing.

Well, I'm Hispanic, but seeing as how we're the majority in this town, I'm not really ridiculed.
However, sometimes I feel people are a bit prejudiced towards me when I leave the area or state.

Like this one time when I walked into a Starbucks in a rest stop, the guy working at Starbucks didn't think I knew what he was saying and asked me really slowly, "Do you want CAFEY CON LEYCHEY?", when in reality I was just thinking.

My friends will give me crap because I usually get better grades than them and they think I'm complaining about getting a bad grade when I still get a good grade, but I just always strive to do the best I can. I can't help it if I get better grades than them and I want to do well on my assignments... I don't really care when they tell me these things though.
