do you/would you eat your kintype?

[candieduranium]

even if your kintype cant or doesnt attack anything, its fine to choose what you think it would if it could

I am quite curious about what religions make up the nonhuman community. Let this be a place for respectful and educational conversation.

I've been kinda curious for the last few weeks if nonhumanity is something you are born with or if it is formed. So! I made this poll for everyone who wants to answer!

From what I've gathered, people tend to say that they were born therian or otherkin. Kinda curious about knowing what the community feels about this one!

[aphelion-alifer]

how do you experience nonhumanity?

I thought this would be a fun and interesting thing to do! I've never done a poll before, so let this one be the first. my apologies to any experiences or identities that weren't included, this was just for fun :)

Poll for therians :3

(Definitions below the poll)

Paleotherian: A therian whose theriotype is part of an extinct species.

Theriomythic: a therian whose theriotype comes from fiction, mythology, etc. Some people might want to point out to me that "yes but that's not therian it's otherkin", not really, a therian involuntarily identifies himself as an animalistic being, if it is imaginary, as long as it is animalistic, it is a therian. An otherkin unwittingly identifies as an imaginary creature that has some form of anthropomorphic consciousness (use of speech, for example).

Thinking about making a separate blog for talking about more scary kins. Vultures are seen as scary and gross already, but it's nothing compared to bugs.

Specifically, one of my alters recently found out that she's a black widow spider and I just... See so much hate on bugkins or spiders and other "scary" kins as well. I know she also considered a common European adder and decided to forget about it because it's not a common, cute or fluffy kin...

note: whichever feature is replaced, you also get the sensitivity of that feature. ex: if you chose eyes, you would also receive the kintype’s eyesight.

polykins, choose your main kin if you have one.

“snout” is used as an umbrella term in this context

eyebrows not included lmao

Hello! Again, curious about something so imma make a poll. For those who are fictionkin, are you the species of a piece of fiction or a character from it?

For example, I'm a Watcher, but I'm not one of the Watchers from the life series, my source. I'm simply an individual and Watcher is my species. Someone could be, for example, a nightfury, but they would not be Toothless.

My local conventions start happening in a few months, and I really want to make more non human friendos

But I don't want to be like, HEY YOU, YOU THERE. ARE YOU A THERIAN??? bc i am a coward who's afraid of bullying.

So I was thinking of using those convention signs/plates (y'know, those little cheap writing board signs that come with the stapled handle) to find some!!

The question that I'm thinking on would be:

"Do you support therians?

Yes // no // idk what that is"

Y'all can steal my idea if you want!! Just tell me if you do (so I can be happy and not feel stupid about my idea)

I saw this a lot on therian tiktok:

People naming their gear. Not their theriotypes, or adopting a 'therian name', but naming their gear itself, ie having a wolf mask named Smoke or a cat mask named Ginger.

The main talking point FOR doing this was naming the gear made it easier to differentiate between different gear sets without having to say 'the gray mask' or 'the brown tail' because they could just say 'Cloudpelt' or 'Pine'.

The main talking point AGAINST this was that it made people seem like they were roleplaying instead of actually identifying as a 'real therian', and/or it made your theriotype look like a fursona instead of a theriotype.

I've always been neutral on this because idgaf about what other ppl do but I'm curious to hear more thoughts/opinions on this :3
