A '''male''' (♂. [[W:Latin|Latin]] '''masculus''', diminutive form of '''mas'''), is the [[W:Sex|sex]] of an [[W:Organism|organism]], or a part of an organism, which produces '''spermatozoon''' or '''spermatium''' ([[W:Sperm|Sperm]]). Most male [[mammal]]s, including male [[humans]], have a [[W:Y chromosome|Y chromosome]]<br />

In 1998, the non-scientific survey ''[[The Sociology of Furry Fandom]]'' by [[David J. Rust]], indicated that male ([[furry fan|fan]]s and [[artist]]s) were the majority within the [[furry fandom]]; A survey of 350 [[furries]] found that males comprised 85% of the community, as compared to a 2005 U.S. Census report of 49% in the U.S. as a whole <ref>[http://www.visi.com/~phantos/furrysoc.html ''The Sociology of Furry Fandom]'' by [[David J.

<br />
In virtual communities, however, there appears to be a lesser percentage of male participants, as many males assume female [[character]]s and [[fursona]]]s.<br />
