#Kin

[genderqueerdykes]

i do want to say to the other nonhumans who have been told that their otherkin, fictionkin, therian, alterhuman, or other nonhuman identity is "just a phase" and that it would go away if you "had less free time" or "more to do with your time"- i want to say that at least in my case, that's really just a big fat lie

i began identifying as nonhuman in late 2010, early 2011. i was browsing otherkin forums back then, back when forums were still widely used. it took up a lot of my thoughts at first because it was new and it can take a while to figure out what your nonhuman identity is. as time passed and my life got progressively harder, going through bouts of homelessness, living in hotels, having my trust broken by friends... never did i once lose my nonhumanity.

sure it fell to the back of my mind while other priorities took the wheel, like paying for shelter, but if anything, being homeless and experiencing the "real world" solidified my nonhuman identity more than anything. being exposed to the "real world" make me understand that i do not understand how humans think, and that i still am not one, over 10 years later. i never became misanthropic, but my feelings of "otherness" only intensified as i became more and more confused about the human experience, which lead me to feel less and less like one. something like the feeling of a lost coyote who wandered too far into the city, staring at the city skyline, unfamiliar with this terrain, unsure of how to even begin to adapt.

if something is a part of you, it won't just go away because other things come along. i never stopped identifying as a wolfdog even while i was scared out of my mind and busy facing the challenges of the human world. those challenges and hurdles that don't exist in the natural world literally reinforced my understanding of my nonhumanity. i will simply never get the way humans think or operate, and that's fine. it's literally a non-issue. they don't get me, either.

this is a long journey. many of us were wolves in the beginning (and i personally am of the opinion that wolves avoided extinction by reincarnating into human bodies) only to find our souls deep into the black oceans and up up up high into the blinding celestial heavens. some of us have always known what we are. i don't think that's true for most of us. try to enjoy your soul morphing, changing shape.

it doesn't have to be miserable.

you can break, shatter into a thousand slivers of glass, and it will be glorious.

i kin remus lupin so much, both because of his grades and undying need to study but also because he has to work, really, really hard to get where he is. sirius will chill next to him while he's studying, wickedly intelligent with no need to revise or anything, and remus will be drowning in ink and books and the fear of failure, of not being enough for the school he was so graciously accepted into, terrified that he will fail and prove everyone (his father) who ever doubted him right. he'll study and read and study some more just to be on the same level as the people around him, as the highly intelligent individuals he surrounds himself with (the heir of the noble house of black, mr street smarts and the hogwarts chess champion) and stress when he can't do that good enough.

and i relate to him so much.

Reminder not to stereotype kintypes.

Just because one is a fox does not mean they're as happy and playful as one.

Just because one is a rabbit does not mean they're a cute, cuddly, soft bunny.

Just because one is a bird does not mean they're sad to be earth-bound.

Just because one is a wolf does not mean they have "two sides/personalities" while shifting.

Just because one is a cat does not mean they are faking alterhumanity, or in their "Warrior Cat phase"

Just because one is a nonhuman does not mean that we do quads.

Just because one is a nonhuman does not mean we have gear.

Just because one is a nonhuman does not mean we are lean, strong, and Caucasian.

Just because one is a nonhuman does not mean we express our alterhumanity in eccentric ways.

Every nonhuman is valid as fuck. From the smallest mouse, to the largest whale, everything in between, you are valid.

Friendly reminder that you are valid even if you don't have Phantomshifts :)

I have always felt rather disconnected from this community, and anyone really, because I simply don't experience phantomshifts. I don't even know what the other shifts are called, I secretely call mine dissociation - as I am still convinced that it's nothing else✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊

. ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁ ⟡ ݁ . ⊹ ₊ ݁.⋆｡°✩

But That doesn't make it any less valid! You don't need to prove to anyone that you are alterhuman, otherkin, therian or whatever you want to call yourself! I have never been involved in a more welcoming community, and you don't have to be "typically therian" to fit in. Because that is not a thing.

. ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁ ⟡ ݁ . ⊹ ₊ ݁.⋆｡°✩

You just have to be. That is completely enough.‧₊˚✩彡

people saying that they’d harm their child if they ever start identifying as an animal is so fucking concerning.

therianthropy aside, that’s such a Normal child phase to go though. running around and roleplaying as a wolf is fun and so common. i pray those parents never have kids, let alone therian kids.

just say you’d make an awful parent and move on
