At least you dan't have to explain Furry Fandom to anyone! So far I just pass it off as a SciFi convention when I go off to a con.. its all anyone at my job needs to know.
Where I work its a good idea to keep one's hobbies etc. to one's self. Anything is grist for the mill there and they can be brutal at times. Warehouse workers are not at all genteel. One of our Supervisors has taken up raising Alpacas and brings his big glossy alpaca magazines to work everyday. The Alpaca-Sex jokes never cease!
I guess how open you are about your life outside work depends upon how you think it will be received in the workplace. Among educated folks there should be less to worry about, but even they sometimes have hang-ups about anyone straying beyond the social norms.
Well...
