In this week's episode, we explain why you don't have to be a furry! This show is dedicated to showing how awesome the furry fandom is, but there are still many people who might not want to join the fandom, despite having very similar interests in the idea of anthroporphic animals. But this can be confusing, especially for those who have joined the fandom; why would someone who looks, talks, and walks like a furry, not be a furry? But there are some good reasons why many choose not to join, and in this episode, we explore what those reasons why and go over why their decisions are still valid!Follow Me On Twitter for Updates and Info about the Show: @FinnThePantherSources and Stuff to Check Out:BetaEtaDelota: Why People Aren't FurriesBuzzFeed: Are Furries Really So Bad?Quora: Why do some people not like furries?Thank you for checking out the show! iTunes/Apple Podcast listeners: make sure to leave a rating and review!
