  • Subculture and Safe Space: Identity
    Subculture and Safe Space: Identity Expression and Exploration in the Furry Fandom Nina Junior Research Project Seminar March 10, 2020 1 INTRODUCTION In the last few years, I’ve noticed that the current generation of young people have redefined identity and how we, as a society, talk and think about identity. Major dictionaries have added the words “cisgender,” “gender-fluid,” and “they” as a neutral pronoun. Along with these rapid language changes has come a paradigm shift to see gender as a complex, ever-growing, and flexible part of identity to be defined by the individual, rather than society. One of the places where these changes have been welcome is within the furry fandom. The furry fandom is dedicated to the celebration of identity drawn together by similar interests in animals, anthropomorphic and zoomorphic costuming, and art. It is a subculture devoted to the acceptance of identifying with an animal alter-ego, which is expressed and experienced in art, costuming, and online forums. The furry fandom has provided members with a safe space where they can experiment with identity and be themselves. The furry fandom allows identity to be flexible along species lines, as well as that of gender and sexuality. However, while the broader culture has largely adapted to changing ideas about gender, race, and identity in general, this particular subculture continues to suffer from taboo and negative stereotypes. Furries are often labeled as a fetish, a misunderstanding caused by misleading media that obscures the many beneficial effects for members of the fandom. I am interested in this topic because I am a furry.

    International Anthropomorphic Research Project Furry Fiesta 2012 Working Paper Full Citation: Plante, C. N., Reysen, S., Roberts, S. E., & Gerbasi, K. C. (2012). International Anthropomorphic Research Project: Furry Fiesta 2012. Retrieved from https://sites.google.com/site/anthropomorphicresearch/past-results/furry-fiesta-2012 Examples of the envelopes the Furry Fiesta 2012 ARP Surveys were sealed in. These two were decorated by furry participants. This winter, after the success of our research at Furry Fiesta 2011, and with a number of new research goals in mind, our team made its way to Furry Fiesta 2012. We handed out hundreds of surveys and, in conjunction with our convention attendance, we also carried out another international online survey of the furry fandom. In total, we received 1,098 participants from 32 different countries (after removing minors from the sample, as our ethics board prohibits us from conducting research on minors). Our sample consisted of 951 furries and 104 non- furries, as well as 152 therians. In addition to our usual questions, there were a number of new measures of interest, some of them based on hypotheses generated by the academic literature, others based entirely on questions asked of us by furries online and at conventions. In the end, we asked a variety of questions covering demographics, felt stigma against the fandom, self-esteem, connection felt with one’s fursona species, fantasy involvement, personality (both fursona personality and non- fursona personality), ideas about why the fandom is male-dominated, fan entitlement, attitudes towards animal rights, pet ownership and healthy/unhealthy fandom activities. In sum, we asked more than 300 questions.
