And congrats Francois on a very interesting questionnaire. There was a poll carried out by a member in the last couple of years which was illuminating... just might have to see about resurrecting that as well.

 

On behalf of the Admins and Mods, Francois, thanks again for a great topic. Piotr

What is your name?

Claus

Age?

55

In which country and town do you live?

Denmark

Which profession do you have?

Teacher

Are you married or living together, etc.?

Single

 

Since when do you love fur?

For as long as I can remember ...must have been very young

What was the trigger to start your furlove?

I seem to remember some teddy bear-like toy with real fur that I would feel and play hard with. Then my mother bought a fur hat - the only real fur in the household. In due course I obtained my first O with said item......been hooked ever since

Do you consider yourself as a fetishist?

Yes, definitely

Do you love real fur or fake or both?

REAL fur I LOVE....fake fur can be tolerated....some of the new ones look very real, but the feel and the smell CANNOT be reproduced, however

Do you collect furs?

Yup

How many fur items do you own?

I thinkt at the moment I have around 15 full fur coats; add to that a plethora of fur items such as mittens, hats, boots, fox pelts - even a skirt and a pair of trousers (both sealskin dyed black - but they seem to have shrunk in the wash.....) (plus I own about a 100 sweaters/cardigans - good thing I live on my own)

Which items?

I have quite a few raccoon coats (six?) of which I wear two during the winter, one of which was damaged in London last winter (no, not protesters), so currently in the market for a new; one huge blue fox jacket (only for play), one rather large Canadian red fox fur (only for play), two coyote furs - one of which I'll wear outside as well; three sealskin furs - again one I'll wear in the winter (e.g. for visiting my parents - do not think they'd welcome the huge furs, somehow....maybe my mother will remember the fur hat....)..and a few others - almost forgot my coyote fur blanket for my bed

What is your favorite fur type? Fur item?

My favorite fur type used to be coyote and bluefox....but somehow raccoon seems to have moved up the list, perhaps because it is an "easy" fur to wear for a man, not as "loud" as a coyote fur....

What is the value of your fur collection?

I have no idea, as only one fur coat has been bought from new....

Where do you buy your furs?

Mostly second hand via selling points on the net, perused almost daily

Is your collection growing or do you sell sometimes?

I have sold off a few fur coats over the years ...thinking of maybe selling my blue fox coat...but the hassle of selling ...ah, well. So definitely growing (just bought a fox pelt today, too cheap to miss out (only app 12£)....it's being posted as I type

How do you use your furs? Wearing or in other ways?

Some I'll wear outside...with age has come more confidence in wearing what I want to do and damn the torpedoes; I try to only purchase furs now, that I will wear - I have enough fur coats/items for just playing as it is....(except for that fox pelt )

When and where do you wear your furs?

During the winter I will wear my two (now one ) raccoon coats, my sealskin coat and my 3/4 coyote coat

out and about town for shopping, walks in the woods, a night on the town ( ). And, like many others have experienced, people are VERY welcoming. I've had literally hundreds of compliments (in London, too) and only two negative comments over the last four years, where I have really begun wearing fur coats out. Oh, why did I wait sooooo loooong ...Well, have worn sealskin coats for at least twenty years...but still not the same as a full blown, hairy chunky fur coat like raccoon and coyote.

Do you live in a 'fur country' or an 'anti fur country'?

Denmark is generally a fur country.

 

How many people know about your furlove?

Loads of people know I love fur ...but how many know that I LOVE fur?? Probably about 50 people now. Some people have big mouths and blabber...I prefer to be the one deciding who should know and when....ah, well....

Does your partner share your love of fur?

I've only had one woman refuse to wear fur in bed....counting both GF's and one-night-stands....she belonged to the latter....and not really

How is her or his reaction about this love?

It has been my experience that most women find it intriguing, exciting and a little kinky...at least at first...until they realize the extent of my fetishism....hence my singularity ....trying to find a way to square the cycle.......because you can LOVE fur, but you can't fall IN love with a fur coat.....or something

Stimulate your partner this fur love?

In my experience women do find fur erotic - they feel it makes them sexy when wearing it...and very few people are immune to the touch of real fur

Does your family know about your fur love?

Not that I know of.....but as my "love interest" in my mother's fur hat deepened, she stopped wearing it...this could, of course, have been for other reasons. She was never a flash dresser. But, women (mothers) often KNOW things, dont they??

Did your mother or sister had a fur coat?

No sisters, and my mother only had the fur hat...oh, and some ratty fur collar on an otherwise forgettable coat

Are there other furlovers in your surroundings?

Nope (but have known one woman who got turned on by sweaters and cardigans....); and one ex, that I'm still in contact with, says she still uses fur in bed with other lovers....but is enjoying that they prefer her over the fur coat (but, what does she know? )

Do they wear fur too?

All my GF's have worn fur coats, given to them by me, to varying degrees - funnily enought they also insisted on keeping the fur coats after the relations broke down - the cheek!!

Which aspect of fur do you love most?

Was thinking of that the other day. Everything, but maybe the fragrance of fur?? A fur is no good to me, if the fragrance has turned to odeur (=bad smell) - that cellar smell

 

Which furs do you prefer: from the wild or farmed? Why?

I'm thinking more of the end result. Having said that, I do want the animals to live a decent life before they are turned into fur coats. But, somehow I think the proof is in the pudding. You NEED to treat the animals decently to make nice pelts.....

Do you think the animals are treated humanly in the farms?

Well, yeah...for the most part; there will always be a few rotten apples, who do not understand they are undermining their own business by cutting corners.

Do you think the harvest of wild furs happens in a correct way?

I like to think so - really haven't got much of a clue, unfortunately

Do you care about this?

YES - but not enough, it would seem

Do you feel guilty about your furlove?

I used to, not anymore - older and more cynical

Do you feel sorry for the animal who has to give his fur?

Not really, no

Did you ever kill an animal for its fur?

Nope - only ever killed a chicken....and I am not much for feathers....

 

Are you feeling guilty for your surroundings to be a fetishist?

Depends on what you mean? I felt guily borrowing mother's fur hat for carnal pleasures....and later my maternal grandmother's mink coat....and....and.....

How did you handle that?

Denial, denial, denial

 

How many hours are you at Thefurden?

Been away for a long time.....just recently reentered the fray....let's see

How many topics did you started there?

One...if any?

Do you have other fur clubs besides Thefurden?

A few, but I rarely go there, either...at one time I just felt that it was the same old same over and over....then I got busy and kind of drifted away..

 

Do you use a messenger to talk with other furlovers?

Nope

How many people are in your messenger list?

None that I know of

And with how many do you have a regular contact?

For how many time?

Do you talk about fur or do you talk about other things besides fur?

About which aspects do you talk when you talk about fur? Fashion or other?

Was you ever contacted by anti fur people?

Depends on what you mean? Walking down the street in my town, wearing my sealskin coat, I got accosted by a young girl wanting me to sign a petition against fur. I just looked at her, a little confused, "What do YOU think?" ...and briskly walked on.

Last year in London I got off at the underground station near Portobello Road Market ...and walked past a few people holding placards. A few hundred yards further, I realized, I was walking in the wrong direction, so made a u-turn. Walking past the little congregation again, this time I noticed that their placards were advocating anti-fur slogans. As I was wearing a full length raccoon coat - huge - at the time, I was quite surprised that nobody "attacked" me or even shouted at me. Friendly protesters, eh? (Or perhaps me standing at 6,3 with a weight of 220 pounds, not being made any smaller by the fur coat??)

How did you handle this?

Guess, I've answered that above. But perhaps another little anecdote. A GF (the one with the abiding interest in furs) and I were taking a stroll through the city, she in a full length racccon, me in a sealskin coat, when we were accosted by a small group of girls - age 16-20? - who wanted to confront my GF about her fur coat. For some reason, they left me alone? This gave me the opportunity to hang back a bit and just observe. After a while, I spotted one of the girls wearing a hair band made of mink (very popular at the time), and asked her is she did not think herself a little hypocritical wearing that and at the same time berating my GF. Upon which she replied (in the way unique to teenage girls), "Well, it is just a little piece of fur". My reply, "Well, so they only killed the mink a little bit, then?". On that note I grabbed my GF and made off.

 

Do you have any remarks by this very big questionaire?

Healthy to be "forced" to think your beliefs through once in a while, and even better to have to express your thoughts accordingly. The only one I have not pondered upon before, however, was the farmed versus the wild fur.

 

I know it is a very big topic and may be much work to answer, but I hope many, many members will fill in and make this a great sempiternal topic. Of course I will fill in too.

This was originally posted in 2006 when The Fur Den came on line and was new. I have revived this topic / these questions before. As members come and go and as attitudes change toward fur. It is simple; just copy the questions answer them and post / submit your reply. I copied them and pasted them in to word. Please feel free to add any additional information you feel relevant to these topics / questions.

Please! Remember this is anonymous and one of the few places left. Where you can really feel free to express your feelings and views about fur! Fantasy or Not!
