Hello!

[Dogum]

Hello Zoowg,




after being silently on here for the last 6+ months, I felt the urge to finally say a word or two.

I am Dogum. I almost don't remember the time prior to my discovery of being zoosexual anymore. I've been a furry for almost 20 years now and I felt the increasing hostility from the public and the fandom slowly creeping up to us. As many of you surely also did. I recognize some of the member's names here from other, former boards and places. Other than the fact that I sometimes shared some music on EZ and ZF and said a couple of words, I wasn't very active. I don't even remember my user name from back in the day. Something foxy maybe.




Anyways, after 'the end of my fun times' -I am just going to term it that way, hehe- , in other words the demise of discord and tg communities in the mid to late 2010s, I just became almost completely detached from the zoo spaces online. It hits surprisingly hard when a community just suddenly dissolves into nothing. You never really know what you got, until you lose it.

I look around and see this place also being a little bit empty. Slow. Half-way abandoned maybe. Perhaps that's just the nature of things of that matter these days.  Why am I here, then and writing this ? I don't know. Maybe it is a futile attempt in order to find some kind of community, again. The refusal of giving up. Or the natural urge to find individuals, sharing certain feelings towards non-human creatures.




Well, that got overly dramatic. I wish I could've put a bit more positivity in my first post here : P




best regards




Dogum
