Fursuit rave!

Got a fursuit to show off? Want advice on how to make one or where to get one? Feel the need to share pictures of your new wolf T-shirt? What about cute plushie or pair of fluffy ears? This is the place.

Fursuit rave!

#1

Post by Niexie »

Ok well I can organize a rave for us fursuiters, tho later in the year. for anyone who likes the fandom, who cosplay and most importantly fursuiters! I can organize a nice dj, cold room (For keeping fursuiters nice and cool.) and also UV lights and more. There wont be smoking, drinking, drugs or yiff (Sorry There will be younger people like 15, 16 year olds to.) So mostly safe but fun party.But I at least want a few suiters to say they are interested in it. so I can arrange a day and get it all ready! maybe for my 19th b-day :D anyway please tell me if you wanna go if so leave a reply on this topic. and tell me if you will just come as a human, cosplay, particle furry or a fullsuit. (This is perfect for fursuiters who have UV reactive fur!) THANKS!!!!!

lol no I wont but the rave yes! I really do not mind yiffy furrys but that's kinda what I see as "private" soooo yeah, if u do yiff u can come but please dont start humping other furs and doing things like that or u will be thrown out the rave! other then that if u are just there for fun, dancing, meeting new people then your welcome and yes tails and ears would be nice to have on! I want at least more then one full suiter at the rave tho. it will probably take a few monthes but i will let u know a month before the rave. so u have time to get a suit or cosplay ready. you can also rent a mascot or normal costume at a costume renting place :D spoiler (I will wear my rave suit!)

Contrast, you're straight, and most of the furs here are guys, and you know that. Tsk Tsk. :P

I would love it if the ZAFurs could go fursuiting: fursuit raves, fursuit bowling, fursuit visits to parks and other public places. Alas: there are no suits here in South Africa. :(
Hahaha! :lol:

We've done fursuit mini golf at the South Afrifur 2010 meeting. There are at least three fursuits in PE, all made by Electrocat. Niexie has one. And I believe Umuntu wore a fursuit to Cape Town Pride march. There are probably others that have partials or even whole ones that I've forgotten or am unaware of.

Even though I admire your enthusiasm I think most of us try to avoid attention into the fandom as it normally alienates people away.

The reality is that in SA, something like the furry fandom is still pretty Taboo. Not to mention the sex driven reputation the fandom has thanks to CSI, Chewfox, oh yeah and the immense amount of publicly available porn and search engines' suggestions on the fandom itself.

I understand what you mean, but I think you might be viewing things a little pessimistically. I'd be surprised if even 5% of the non-furries in South Africa have ever even heard of furries, much less know enough about them to form some kind of stereotype in their heads. How can something be considered "taboo" if it's a complete unknown?

If a group of fursuiters suddenly walked through a mall, I can almost guarantee you the vast majority of people won't think: "Ew, furries! Burn in hell, furfags!" Most likely, they'll either have no idea what's going on, or they'll think that it must be a stunt to collect money for charity or something.
In a country where the fandom is so unknown, I'm sure most people will either just shrug it off, or even think it's cute.

I've seen tons of videos on Youtube of fursuit outings made by American suiters (the country that has the most furry awareness, and therefore also the most haters). For the most part, these guys get flooded with hot girls who want to get their pictures taken snuggling the giant huggable furry! Fursuits are absolute chick magnets! :3

Yeah but that's different than constantly rubbing furry fandom into peoples faces. Normally people don't care at all but furries generally have a way of f#cking it up every single time.

Edit: Excuse my negativity I've been on FAF way too long.

I think the main reason for the lesser of us getting that involved in furry things mainly revolves around finances. I Like buying things with no profitable reason but it will take a whole lot of me to actually go and purchase something as expensive as a fursuit. And even then I struggle to see myself as being the type of person running around in a 38 deg suit trying to be friendly.

The rave Idea on the other hand. I like it and maybe in the future we might achieve something pretty badass as a big furry party thing. It's a problem arranging enough furries to attend a braai in SA not to mention have a gig setup where enough would be available to attend. Hell we have DJ's, guitarists, drummers and pretty wicked entertainers just in this small community. An event here can have quite a ballsy line up but, it's getting all us working furries to actually save plan and attend.

Maybe when the rand gets a little stronger. lel

The fandom In the US was also like it was here once. If no one tries to get it out there, nothing will change, but trying and keep trying will be the only way this fandom will get into SA.

The thing is with humans if they see something out of place they will or dislike it, or be interested by it, their will be those who will turn their heads in disgust but we must try to get the ones who will be interested by it so they can join our love for FURRIES!! And the RAVE sounds like a awesome awesome i
idea!!
Is it humans?
NO
Is it animals?
NO

Hey all, I don't seem to find any problem with going out with fursuits nor partials. I Jake Dane, went to UJ with my tail and didn't have any problems. Think I made people laugh but aww well I don't care. Also went to Melville, got on the guardian more than once and still no problems I am not shy just fun and putting furries out there. Would love a rave and would love to see more meetings of all furs.

Kind regards
Jake.

While that may be true for a few conservative old prunes, for the most part, humans are inquisitive and curious creatures. if they see something unusual like a bunch of fursuiters, it will grab their attention.
Once we've got their attention, it's up to us to convince them that furries are either cool, or just not something they're interested in but that they don't mind.
Hahaha! :lol:
