    UPDATE! I got an email from the tweeter who didn't want me to teach about furries: well, another mind changed with science! I made a video response to thank them and to thank the furry community, too! Please share this to prove we can change minds with science! #sharefurscience

    The furry fandom is a compassionate, welcoming, & supportive place where people get to be the best versions of themselves. It’s a safe place where people thrive. The fact they don’t tolerate bullies doesn’t change that; it actually emphasizes the protective nature of the fandom.

    HOT OFF THE PRESS! Our latest article "Chasing Tail" in #JSexResearch discusses the relative weight of sexual/social interests as predictors of furry identity. Spoiler Alert! Non-sexual motivations are much more strongly correlated with furry identity! doi.org/10.1080/002244…

    To the parents of furries: If I had a child, and the "worst thing" they ever did was come home and disclose their furry identity, then I'd be high-fiving my husband and declaring us "home free." We invite you to read about our research on the furry fandom. furscience.com

    FurScience has academic partners all over the world. One at the University of Jyväskylä has confirmed that the Finnish people have, indeed, received the suggestion that creating a fursona and making a fursuit may stave off boredom at home whilst under quarantine. Go Findland! 🇫🇮

    The Finnish state owned media YLE came up with 30 tips on how to enjoy life indoors. One of the tips says "develop your own fursona and become a fursuiter, that is, a maker of animal mascot costumes". yle.fi/uutiset/3-1125…

    We've updated our "Autism in the Fandom" section with loads of information for furries and convention organizers. Huge thanks to our very own Dr Elizabeth Fein of @duqedu for all this work! #Neurodiversity furscience.com/autism-in-the-…
