Experience Tumblr like never before
(Tw: venting and swearing. Not mad, just want people to be better.)
I don't think I'm human.
Scratch that, I'm not human.
I'm not human because of my therianthropy.
All of you kids saying "therians don't think they're ACTUALLY animals" or "therians know they are human" can fuck off.
Don't speak for a community you hardly understand.
I don't care if you're trying to make haters understand, you're still spreading misinformation.
I'M A FUCKING ANIMAL. DEAL WITH IT.
Don't even get me started on the "therians identify as animals non-physically, they know they are physically human".
Shut the fuck up and stop reminding me.
That's like saying "trans women know they are physically men"
I DON'T HAVE TO IDENTIFY AS MY PHYSICAL BODY.
I'm transmasc. I would never refer to myself as a woman even though it's my biology. The same goes for my therianthropy.
If anything, I'm transspecies.
And that's a perfectly valid type of therianthropy.
STOP PRETENDING PEOPLE LIKE ME DONT EXIST.
We deserve to be included in discussions about therianthropy and in the definition of the label itself.
Don't be a turd.
Stop gatekeeping.
Stop watering down our identities for others.
Googling shit and reading wikis isn't research.
Talk to real people.
Talk to real creatures.
