Do you really think that the "normal" anthros get more press than the fucked-up ones? Think about that. What makes better news or gossip?
Anthropomorph fanatics have a bad reputation because of those who are doing things they either shouldn't be doing or shouldn't be doing publicly. They get the front page while every other aspect is unheard of simply because it doesn't grab idiots' attention spans.
Think about it...and be disgusted by those who define your fandom.
*hugs* Aww, I'm sorry that happened. I get questioned about my art alot too and no one enjoys when I explain it or seemes to get it >> The guy was obviously a dick and you should pay no attention to him.
But thats my peice of advice :3 And you shouldn't have crumbled up your drawing because you draw pretty things.
Aha...I'm gonna be working at Target >>

This is one of the reasons why I draw at home our inside of a sketchpad - where no one can see me and I can lock it at a moments notice.
Very few persons in Jamaica understand the 'furre' world and personas or fursonas and I don't try to enlighten them because I know they won't understand nor do I quite honestly want them to understand.
Anyhow, you shouldn't have crumpled your art for the sake of some asshole who your probably won't even interact with again. (also I wouldn't have given him the time of day in the first place but that's just me). Treasure all of your drawings please.
Meh, sorry to hear yer being worked to the bone.
Mord's been working way too long days for weeks now too.
It's very annoying. He leaves at 8 and sometimes I don't see him again 'till 10 in the evening so yeah, hope that'll change soon for both you guys and us.
As for the drawing thing, people above me have prettymuch said it.
The nasty stereotype does exist but unfortunately they're the only ones people hear about. So I wouldn't be ashamed of your art be proud of it. I'm sure people 'll understand if you tell em you don't agree with that kind of behavior and that that's not your typical furre. Because hiding away and not wanting to bother explaining what it's really like will leave people thinking the same way forever.
Yeah... work is being bothersome. It's shifted so I'm not working 15 hours a day... but 8 hours a day. Only thing is... now it's 7 days a week. Though this is a little better on my sleep and health, it still doesn't leave me much quality time with C-chan, except for mondays.
I don't know why I find it so hard to find the time to educate him as opposed to hating him. It's a part of my anti-social self that still exists from back before I met Cindy. Just kinda want to be left to do my thing. You don't like it, f-u... y'know? Though it would probably help my work situation to educate him next time (if there is such) it occurs as opposed to getting depressed and throwing away art.

There's a whole world, outside your door, waiting to be discovered. But... why bother, when you can create your own world with nothign more than a pencil, paper, and your imagination? =^-^=
You know me... Overly emotional (or perhaps emotionally unstable)... little things like that have a tendancy to get to me.

Probably I shouldn't have. Cindy's always yelling at me for drawing away artwork that I leave unfinished and have grow to hate for one reason or another.
I probably should've just ignored him and kept drawing... but I've been a lot more open with my hobbies since I met Cindy. I shouldn't have to be ashamed of what I do, and if they don't like it,well, fuck 'em. Or at least that's what I like to tell myself. Weren't for me being so overly emotional all the time perhaps I could be such.
