Just out of curiosity.

What percentage of active users here would actually consider themselves a furry? I’m a furry and I have no problem communicating with non furries but it would be interesting to get a percentage for active users in this #. Also as I have seen on other posts these polls are anonymous so you can feel...

Otherkin are a unique as they don't identify as highly human or human at all near many different things behind you for me I identify as a direwolf pretty much but each otherkin is different and not all identify as an animal

You know identifying as or with something doesn’t make you that right? What I mean is you have two human parents I don’t see any way a person could be an animal, it’s fine if you identify as or with it but I just want to check to make sure you still know that you are a human physically.

I am not a human I am dire wolf a nonbinary dire wolf You do know human are Animals even scientists have classified humans as animal's in fact the classification for humans is homo sapien and Homo sapiens are class of primates

Yes humans are animals but what I mean is there’s no way you are non human. What non human creature could use a keyboard? Thumbs or hours of trial and error would be required dire wolves don’t have thumbs.

There many. Different type of otherkin tans species dysphoria of the soul is only one type

Yes you said that and I’m aware people do things differently depending on many factors.

Not oke but you could say I am otherkin

How would you define otherkin? I’ve heard things about otherkin but I’ve never talked to someone who said they were one before.

Otherkin are a subculture of people who identify as not entirely human. Some otherkin believe their identity derives from reincarnation, trans-species dysphoria of the soul, ancestry, or metaphor. Others attribute it to unusual psychology and do not hold spiritual beliefs on the subject.

I find it interesting that you use the term dysphoria because that is a real medical term meaning that they believe something that is untrue medically.

Many otherkind beliefs are based on many different things like ancestry or in simple terms metaphor some like my self reincarnation there are several other types of form of psychology but doesn't have any spiritual beliefs about it My entire life I have acted like a wolf and at time I scare my...

Sounds like a coping mechanism for some childhood trauma or something I’d recommend asking a doctor.

You not try to converse you are try to pick are fight and I was nothing but nice You're not trying to learn about otherkin kids you are trying to condemn my way of life you pick one thing out of an entire comment and use that to base your your argument 3 the moment things don't go the way you...

Fyi I have a background in psychology that I use help people spots red flags of people to avoid

Perhaps some of my meaning is lost in text. I am trying to understand otherkin but as it can vary so much from person to person I am trying to understand what otherkin is to you. I’m trying to say that some otherkin are likely suffering from a mental condition and I hope they seek help. Yes I did...

Oh you're one of those I see read the entire comment before you judge don't only read part of it

I’ve seen all I need to. For a moment I thought there could be a kind of otherkin that could be conversed with but this is proving untrue.
