I was explaining species dysphoria to a guy on Reddit once and he responded somewhere along the lines of "I won't believe in it until I see a study." And that was just... a baffling take to me. This person, for context, was on a queer subreddit and a lot of his comments were defending queer topics. His response intrigued me.
Like- ok. I am an arctic fox. This is a thing I know about myself. I am asserting that self-knowledge, and he responds by saying my thoughts aren't scientific/rational. Weird. I'd venture most thoughts, especially those of such nebulous nature as identity, don't really come up scientific or rational.
But anyway, what would a scientific study on species dysphoria even look like? A bunch of people giving firsthand accounts of their emotions.
So, to boil down his argument, alterhumans don't exist because people in a university haven't asked a bunch of alterhumans to assert their existence.
Baffling.
Anyway I love all my alterhuman/therian/otherkin sophonts like myself, keep being badass!

Everybody who talks to me can actually communicate with animals, because they're speaking to one and I'm speaking back. Duh. I'm the animal.

I need someone to behold me in terror. I need someone to see me and scream, "WHAT IN THE 20 LEVELS OF THE ABYSS IS /THAT/?!" I need people to be horrified by my very existence. I need to be so incomprehensible that the unfortunate souls who gaze upon me can not even truly describe what they saw. I need to make someone go mad because they saw my true form. I need people to tell horror stories about me. I need people to shudder as they think of the dragon-shaped monster from the 20th level of the abyss that spits acid from its fangs so deadly it can melt mountains and causes storms just be flapping it's wings.

doesnt affect you. shut the fuck up.
"but they use neos and emojis as pronouns!"
literally so what?? it's harmless!!!
"but they wont label themself for me!"
idgaf, not your business.
"but they say they're an animal!"
literally ok? how. does that affect you.
"but they think that theyre something that doesnt even exist!"
yes and that's very cool of them
"but they use animals and nouns as their pronouns!"
do i look like i care? no? that's because i dont.
"but they-!"
DOESNT FUCKING AFFECT YOU. OK. YOU HEAR ME??? IT. DOES. NOT. AFFECT. YOU.
YOU SHOULD NOT CARE SO MUCH ABOUT HOW SOMEONE EXPRESSES THEIR IDENTITY. IT LITERALLY DOES NOT TAKE A N Y T H I N G TO NOT BE AN ASSHOLE.
