The Furry Lexicon
Furries are just like scientologists or doctors — they use a bunch of weird terms they made up. Here’s your pocket furry dictionary:
Fursona: A portmanteau of furry and persona. It’s what animal you identify as.
Yiff: The joyful noise furries make when they copulate. Can also be used as a verb, i.e. “last night I yiffed a hot wolf.”
Yiffy: Horny
Pawing Off: Masturbating
Mate: Wife/husband/girlfriend/etc…
Tailhole: Butthole
Scritching: Scratching behind one’s ears
Anyfur: Anyone
Cuddlick: Cuddling and licking
Furplay: Foreplay
Furson: Person
Huggle: Hug + snuggle
Lagbeast: A mythical creature that slow servers for furry sites are blamed on
Plushie: A stuffed animal that a furry carries as a totem
Otherkin: People who identify with a mythical creature like a wizard of dragon instead of a real animal.
Greymuzzle: Older furry
Therians: People who feel their true spiritual identity is an animal, though they may not dress outwardly as one

robmoose90 10 months agoWell because of people like good old Marshall down there I had only heard that furries were fuzzed up sex freaks. Luckily thanks to a supportive girlfriend and awesome articles like this on buzzfeed, I have come to terms with that part of myself. Had no clue the name for what I am is therian.I typically just say I’m furry light.
Much love,

kyrski 11 months agoi’m sure you just watched the CSI episode and found half of these terms. people can get into that fucking weird 50 shades of grey shit but furries are freaks? whoever said it below was right, i’ve only ever met super sweet people who are furries and they don’t screw each other in costume. great job generalizing. should we just assume all buzzfeed contributors have the humor of 12 year old boys?

izaya 11 months agoWay to show fursuiting in a positive light, good going buzzfeed, you’ll just make anyone look bad for more views wont you? I’m not a furry myself but seriously most of them, like 90% of them, do it for fun, like cosplaying, not for the sexual thrill. There’s always weird people in every fandom. Honestly the furries I’ve met at cons are very sweet and fun. (:
