So, would you?

  • Hell yeah, there’s no downsides!
  • I would if it’s what it takes to be my preferred gender.
  • Maybe, I’m kinda torn…
  • No! I don’t want to be my fursona for real…

Some clarification:

  • You would be the only one turned into an anthro, everyone else is still human.
  • If you have multiple fursona, you’d have to choose one.
  • The gender of the fursona you chose to turn to would match your preferred gender.
  • You wouldn’t receive the superpowers of your fursona if they had one. You wouldn’t become extremely large, have superpowers (especially not omnipotence or shapeshifting), or anything else other than an ordinary anthro.

My response:

Personally, I’m kinda torn. Becoming both my fursona and my gender at the same time would be a dream come true. Being my fursona isn’t just a downside, it’s what I wanted.

But, in this scenario, I’d be the only anthro raccoon-- or anthro at all-- in the sea of humans. Thinking about it, if humans already discriminate against others just because of sexuality and gender (think of queerphobia and transphobia), imagine how they’d react to a completely different species, one that looks like an animal.

It’d be cool to be my girl fursona, but very hard with how humans behave to anything different from them (also, funnily enough, I imagine myself as my fursona commenting on humans when I wrote that sentence).

    One of my fursonas is a living plush, would I gain the benefits of being a plush if I chose her?

    Either way, I think I would. Both of my fursonas are transition goals and I think living as one of them would be absolutely worth any downsides.

      I don’t know, I guess you would get it?

      The point of that limitation is to ensure that you can’t just give your sona shapeshift ability, then turn into a human and live normally. Or that you can’t just give your sona superpower and take over the world or destroy all your oppositions. I wanted the heavy ramification of being the only anthro in a sea of humans, even as your preferred gender (and your preferred fursona).

      But I can’t see being a plush would cause that. Either way, it’s an interesting train of thoughts…
