Does wanting a fursona make you a furry? furries please answer
I've always liked animals, anthro characters and fursuits can look kind of neat too, but I feel like I can't call myself a furry because I'm not strongly, if at all, interested in the idea of anthros or the community, furry roleplay, conventions, fanfiction, books (examples: Warriors), video games (ex: Star Fox, Sonic the Hedgehog, Night in the Woods, etc), or movies (ex: Zootopia, Disney's Robin Hood, Kung Fu Panda).
I'm not otherkin/therian either, I think I just like the idea of an alter ego or accurate animal representation of myself to act as an avatar.
