Fursona Evolution

How have fur's fursonas evolved over time?
I started off as a fox, then flirted with the bunny side for a bit. I then became a squirrel before finally settling on a wolf. I then became a more wolf/husky hybrid, which is where I have stayed ever since. Does this make me a fursona slut?
I initially wanted to be a fox but one of my friends was called Fox and he had bad personal hygiene so I rethought my character.
Also the pink was something else that evolved in time although I admit ever since I was 14 I wanted to have pink hair (I just didn't have the guts to dye it plus school and jobs kinda put paid to all that). In the early days of me joining the Fandom I had no idea what my fursona was going to be like - it was only at the Sheffield meet last June that I got the inspiration to go pink. It was then that my fursona was truly born.

I knew I had an animal side to me from very young but it took until past adolescence for me to really appreciate and recognise it. It's the same with finding the fandom as you say, there is a point in a lot of psychology where it is relieving and enlightening to put a name on to something.

Today, I've got 32 source books for WW:TA, plus the Storyteller's Screen and two "copies" (so to speak) of the dice set. Plus a bunch of other RPG books - probably 60 or 70 or so in total. c.c
But I don't really play anymore, and haven't in years, mostly due to my social phobia.
