You know, that post we reblogged about the lack of visibility for some people in this community, when it can feel very therian-centric, got me thinking.

I should talk about this more, because not everyone can do the heavy lifting and not everyone is comfortable or as assured in talking about their own identity. And that's okay.

Even in therian spaces or the tag itself, I feel forgotten. And I'm a therian. It's just that I'm not a wolf or a deer or even a mammal. I'm a hercules beetle.

Dynastes hercules specifically. And it's just. It's tough out there sometimes. It's tough feeling like you have to censor images of your own species. It's tough because there isn't any affirming gear. I can't eat something to affirm my identity, hercules beetles literally eat wood.

There aren't many cool GIFs or even photos on blogs and those affirming posts about running wild in the woods or flying or hunting just... Don't hold true for me.

Obviously I'm glad for other therians in this community, I love that, I support them, I just... Wish I wasn't such an afterthought in my own spaces. The most I've gotten out of talking about it was a few people mentioning they're also insect therians.

Typing in insect therian and typing in canine therian paint two very different pictures of activity in the community. And the top post in the insect therian search is talking about how we face mistreatment and have to constantly fight misconceptions for being an insect.

I guess my point with this post is that we need more of you. It's completely fair if you feel nervous or don't want to be mistreated, it's up to you! But also?

This is your sign and encouragement to talk about your experiences.

I hope my weird speech and awkward walk and nervous mannerisms are attractive to you

If being alterhuman was more widely accepted, would you be more "weird"/extreme about it? (i.e if you only use temporary or subtle gear now, would get permanent things or more overtly "alterhuman" things)

i see a lot of posts along the lines of “i want to wear collars” “i want people to refer to/treat me as a dog” followed by:

“BUT I DONT WANT PEOPLE TO TAKE IT THE WRONG WAY!”

“BUT NOT IN A SEXUAL WAY!”

and what i will say in response is, why are you ashamed of sexuality? why are you ashamed of instinct? why are you ashamed to potentially associate with kink?

it is true there are people who might treat you weirdly if they suspect it’s sexual, but at the end of the day those people likely hate you already for some other reason (ie: if you’re not white, able bodied, or cishet).

provided you are physically safe, should you care about the opinions of others? NO.

you are allowed to personally not like sex or even find it repulsive. but you don’t need to tack a disclaimer that you’re not an icky sex freak onto your objectively tame statements of wanting to be treated as your species.
