The Chicago club scene went furry for one night this week. Very slight mention in Time Out Chicago (http://www.timeout.com/chicago/article/clubs/23614/furries-freaks-and-the-fall).
Then Monday 29, on the misunderstood subculture front, the Boom Boom Room’s annual Black i Ball turns to a “Furry Fandom” theme for one night only—as in folks dressed up in furry animal costumes—with house jocks Diz and Michael Serafini running the show. There’s a costume station for the lazybones out there.
A very few furries participated in the event, one loaning out a partial suit for the night. More entertaining was Time Out's furry mention from a couple weeks ago (http://www.timeout.com/chicago/article/out-there/23471/play-time).
Dressing up like a stuffed animal to get it on makes this set warm in its fuzzy parts. Though not all animal-obsessed furries are into the scene for sex, some folks wear full-suit costumes with strategic holes—so that woodpeckers can peck, for instance.
Are furries slowly hitting the mainstream?
