Cubs
The whole muscle bear/cub culture fascinates me. I would like to think I'm more of a cub. I notice a lot of older men refer to themselves as cubs but can you really say that when you're, like, 45? Haven't you graduated to beardom by then? I guess if you're cuddly you can be. And then there's otters. I'm not an otter and I'm definitely not a big bear. Perhaps I'm a platypus.
Warm weather and sun makes me happy.

I thought the overriding feature of "bears" was thei r size and mass. A 65 year old guy who is fuzzy, 6"3 and only 160 lbs could never be a "bear" in my eyes, while a really beefy, furry 20 year old could be...
To me you're a cub or a musclecub (in my mind you can add defining adjectives like muscle- etc to modify the overall concept i.e. a big guy who is completely ripped and muscular is a musclebear...)
Just my $.02 - I wish I could be a cub - I'm a hairy man trapped in a smooth guy's body :(

I almost have the cub bear thing figured out, but what is a Pup?

Whatever animal group you belong to....I think you are adorable.

Great pic TJ! The one of you, that is. The sun and warm weather are great medicine for me! I don't get the whole bear/cub thing myself. I assume that I am a cub because I am not a large man, but then I am getting older and, by definition, cubs are young'uns. That's why I prefer to just be honest and call myself a monkey. It's much more appropriate for me.
