Some of you really wanted me to just vent so here goes

I dont know what to do about this issue of mine. Mostly because it regards a certain group of people that I know some of you are a part of and then you'll hate me for everything I'm about to say

Well here goes

I hate the term of furry. I don't like hearing the word, or reading it whenever you talk about fursuits or whatever else you talk about.

But I do not hate furrys. You are just another human being like me, and just want to express yourself through different ways.

So I'm wondering. Could those of you who are furrys or are making their own fursuits or whatever. Could you maybe not post about it in your announcements, or in your main books. Like make a book specifically for that purpose so that those of us who are not interested in the topic dont have to read about it.

Now some of you probably want to hear my reasoning for these simple requests, well then. I guess I have to tell you.

(This is part of what my original announcement was going to be before I decided not to post it)

This past school year/semester (February to June), there was this one kid in my english class. Now he's just an overall jerk, sometimes even to his friends from what I see.

So this kid sat right beside me or in front of me, since we tot to pick out seats. He was originally beside me until he was moved forward because he kept talking to his/my friends.

Basically every day after a few weeks of that class starting, he started calling me a furry for no reason! Like dude, give me some evidence as to why I am a furry, because I'm not!

I just asked him nicely to stop every day, just trying to ignore him and do my schoolwork like a good student. But he wouldn't stop, it got so bad that at one point he got another kid to join him in calling me one.

And to be honest, I hated it. I hated being called something I'm not. And it was even worse for me because I haven't really been bullied in at least a few years. Back then, I was used to it. I was the strange kid and a lot of the popular kids picked on me. I literally called myself an outcast, I labelled myself as the outsider, the kid who doesn't fit in.

But a lot of the bullying stopped during 8th grade. So it was 1 and ½ years since I've been bullied majorly.

So this kid had been doing it from mid-February to mid-March. Basically a whole month of every day during english class calling me a furry at least 10 times.

What was weird was that he was also in my math class. Yet he never said anything in there (but he was sitting farther away sooooo...)

This was the tipping point into my beginning of falling into what was probably depression. All the times I've felt really bad about myself, or thought about hurting myself. It all started because of him. He is the reason why my mental health went down drastically at the start of covid and quarantine and all that.

So it actually makes me really uncomfortable and upset whenever people are talking about being furrys or making fursuits or whatever. I start to feel like sh** again whenever this happens because my mind goes back to all those times he called me a furry.

I'm sorry if this upset anyone, but you guys asked for me to do this because you think it would benefit me
