Coming out from the cave to share this here.

I think I'm monkeykin, yeah. And humanhearted. Saying human therian does feel right, though. Even if someone would find it contradictory, I am a human therian, yes.

Also, as a primate, I guess it's almost second nature I feel connected to other primates, including humans. Though, I for the most part don't feel like a human. Humanhearted fits, since I have been raised by, and I behave in a human-like manner.

Human+, Humanmore, and Unhuman also really strike something in me. Like, I'm human but not, or human plus something else (red ruffed lemur, maned wolf, and hoary bat).

Hmmm. Identity is confusing.

It's almost Halloween! Post a picture of your theriotype (if you can) enjoying some pumpkin or being spooky!

I'll go first;

guess who figured out theyre a ring-tailed lemur therian!!

I've always had a thing for climbing trees, and felt a few tail shifts here and there that were awkwardly long. and just a general thing with primates. turns out, i am one, and more specifically, a lemur.

is it just me who feels a bit more comfortable with labels? knowing what i am? because the moment i found out i was instantly relieved. anyways, thanks for reading my rambling.

this blog is mostly for my canine side! ill be making my main blog a lemur blog :3

ive known for a while one of my theriotypes was a primate of some kind, but thanks to a kind and very informed stranger on the r/therian subreddit, i can confidently say i used to be a muriqui, or a wooly spider monkey, and im very happy to have discovered a new part of my spirituality and alter human identity

me irl if you even care^

I take a deep breathe. Inhale - Exhale. The air smells different to what I'm used to. It's similar but by far not the same. I feel my ears twitching again. Are they real? Those sounds? I can't tell. Inside me a confusion as big and unexplainable as the galaxy keeps spreading. I always felt like I was off here. For so many years I was looking into animals extant and extinct. But nothing ever felt so correct. The ape, chimpanzee, that's what I thought. And it feels okay but I'm not quite there. What now? What if I'm from another planet? Primate like but not of something we as humans know. Would that be possible? It would be.

There are many things speaking for that. For once my feelings which I mentioned roughly. Secondly, since young age, sometime when I was at school, I felt like having three fingers was the truth and hid two other fingers. This feeling never vanished but left me confused since. I seem to use the knuckle walk hand position to support my body if I lean over something. And yet I feel twitching ears and a tail. Those made me think I was a fae, shapshifter or a polykin for a long time. Thirdly, are my memories odd ... very odd. Those nature pics look a bit like on earth but yet it doesn't. I thought those were prehistoric plants and landscapes but the more I think about it, the more I question if those are from planet Earth at all. In addition to those, I make so many weird sounds. Clicking, squeaking, macaw like caws, ooh ooh ah ah and those of no known origin.

So, am I an alien? Am I a primate of another planet? What do others think, if I tell them those? Would my vibes even fit this assumption?

idk some silly doodle. One layer. Just like that.

I can't tell if I'm monkeykin, a primatekin cladotherian, or just otherhearted to other primates.

It feels right to call myself a primate, in the sense that I am a NONHUMAN primate. Not a human primate. Though, I don't think I'd be a gorilla. I'm a lemur, but I'm questioning a monkey. Specifically, a Capuchin monkey.

It's so hard to tell these things sometimes.

You know what's funny?

I'm a werewolf but I don't desire a pack at all. The kind of werewolf I am, a shapeshifting creature, isn't a pack animal. Maybe other canines are pack animals but I'm not an animal, I'm a creature, a monster and I don't necessarily desire other werewolves to make a 'pack' with, though friends would be fun.

But oh boy, as a golden lion tamarin, I miss my troop so much. I am not meant to be alone, alone means not safe! I can't sleep alone because it feels so wrong and I never feel better than when I can engage in grooming or climbing activities with others.

[isaacthebison]

other primate kins pls rb I need you in my life

[just-a-lil-creechurr]

Okay so yall I have made a discovery

so I thought I had a common marmoset kintype (I also have a lion tamarin, and a pygmy marmoset kintype ) and I've realized it is probably not that mayhaps a langur? Idk really

Hey! So I'm on a mission to make sure the alterhuman/non-human/otherkin/and so many others/ communities are properly represented. I'm a snow leopard kin and voidkin myself and know that there are a lot of misconceptions about us, a long with just not much information on some certain topics about our communities. With all of that being said, if you were to see more writing about our communities, what do you think needs to be mentioned more often?

hmm, honestly im not sure. idk what specifically for voidkin, but for otherkin stuff in general maybe more representation of less “well known” kintypes, like primatekin or bugkin for example (sorry for short response, im just not really sure, i might edit if i think of more later)

PRIDE icons for : a chimpkin with a bisexual theme mistakenly made for @avocadofire after i misread their ask OTL

[mechanical-sunchild]

Honestly, considering some of my favourite things to do are 'groom' people's hair (essentially an head massage ngl) as bonding and climb up real high I should have realised I was a nonhuman primate way sooner
