"The Furry Elite"

[lupestripe]

At Eurofurence, I heard this phrase mentioned for the first time.

Does a furry elite exist or is it merely a perception?

Does it consist of furs who just happen to be good at what they do - be it performing, drawing or writing - and who are appreciated because of it?

Or is it just a term made up by some who are slightly envious of their current situation and who are desperate to be appreciated themselves?

Oh I have seen it all to much my self also. I really hate to see fursuiters with bad attitudes. That's one thing I hope no one ever thinks I have. Now I do a lot of other things in suit that a few don't like but that's all for fun! LOL I never understand people who spend a bunch of money on a fursuit, wear it to a con, then say don't touch me!!! I'm never that way! Hell I love to see others having a good time with me around. And if anyone want to take a photo with me or hug me I'm like hell yea. I should be at FC my self this year. So if you see me in Apollo or Xavier please come up! You will see were not all rude and cold.

If I recognise you, I will!

Often difficult to identify the suits you recognise in a huge crowd though. Most suiters are very open and bouncy, I get this, but not knowing any of them very well, someone like myself on the outside just has no idea whos friendly and who isn't. I prefer to admire from a shortish distance (god, I hope that doesn't appear creepy, now that I think about it).

Still, I have a zillion pics from the last FC, including lovely photogenic dances as nobody minded and nearly everyone else had their dSLR's out anyway! I will process the several hundred RAW images in the next few days.
