#wifwolves

[ehlnactila-journal]

A huge victory for my shading skills. The shadows on the floor don't really make any sense, but I don't care. The next task is to put this together with coloring, and then I'll be a real artist! The narrative behind this piece is a few lycanthropes witnessing someone experience it for the first time, most likely a recently-bitten friend. I have little story beyond that, but perhaps it'll be expanded someday. I'm slowly becoming a furry artist because all the other things I'm into are dying or dead, and this is the only community that still has lots of stuff going on. Though, I suppose Transformers still has pretty good momentum...

What's the gender neutral term for werewolf?

The female equivalent is a "wifwolf" but I don't think there's a gender neutral term.

As you know, man and men were once gender neutral (hence mankind) and had prefixes to denote gender ("Wereman" for male and "Wifman" for female)

The "were" prefix was dropped, just leaving us with "men" and the "wif" prefix was kept, eventually became the words "woman/women" and "wife"

Therefore, I propose that the term should be "Manwolf."

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

Lyrics: 

[Verse 1: Daveed Diggs] Kimberly couldn't believe what she was seeing Video was grainy but she could make out his face It clearly had to be Steve Hadn't seen him in maybe, what? It couldn't be more than a couple days Who was this bitch on her knees? She was not even pretty, fuck He better not still be up in her place She fishing 'round for her keys Check the lock, it is broken in Impatiently, a scowl on her face Kimberly opens the door She wasn't ready, drops the keys Drops to the ground and tries to catch her breath Steve was still there on the floor What was left of him, gnarled bone The body parts are piled in a mess How easily she ignored All of the scratches, could be nails or could be teeth Certainly not a knife She should have looked at the floor Follow blood to the window sill Where it went up and out into the night

[Chorus 1: Daveed Diggs] Cynthia strolling through the moonlight Casually wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth Cynthia knew Steve wouldn't do right From the moment when he had said that he wouldn't eat her out Cynthia singing on a blue night Temporarily satisfied but she knew that wouldn't last Cynthia steps into the Brew Right Thirsty for a drink and to find someone to help hours pass [Verse 2: Daveed Diggs] After Randy had sent the photos He decided that he had just earned a drink Shit, he's celebrating the end of a horrible case He never had to see that woman Kimberly ever again He thinks, shit, he had completed the task that was simple enough She knew her man was cheating like they always do She only needed proof So he got to tailing the brown Chevrolet And he'll say this for Steve, he knew what he was doing So good that he almost got away with all of his bullshit But Randy wouldn't get paid, and let's face it He needed every dollar that this little job could make The bookies were calling with more regularity He would rather keep his kneecaps still unbroken Thank you, if it's all the same, shit Nothing had changed, he was the definition of in a rut Anyway, job well done, he saunters on into the Brew Right pub The spot pretty jumpin', he spies a seat at the bar Orders the scotch and then feels a gentle hand on his back And he turns to meet the eyes of a woman Who tells him her name is

[Chorus 2: Daveed Diggs] Cynthia, cross-legged at the bar now holding up a drink Wink, lips Cynthia whispers and his heart now takes another beat Think, skips Cynthia, tongue along his ear now, maybe he should pay The tab Cynthia knows just where to go now, and they leave and hail A cab

[Verse 3: Daveed Diggs] He say, is this the type of thing where he pay? And if so, he gon' need a rain check (check, check) She say, "You can have this one for free, bae" As she licked the lips and started bitin' on his neck He say what's crazy 'bout this, between the bites and the kisses Is he ain't been in a taxi since back when he lost his sister But Cynthia isn't listenin' to him, she on a mission The moon is full and she hurtin', and he might be the prescription And now she pullin' up her dress, and he grabbin' on her breasts And she start to see the throbbin' in his veins And she get ready for the s— But just then the cabbie pulled the taxi over quick Click, pop-pop, silver flashes mixed with red and that was it

[Chorus 3: Daveed Diggs] Cynthia is choking on her blood now The cabbie walks off into the night unseen while Cynthia, still locked in Randy's hug now 'Cept for the oaken window high above the scene and Cynthia looks straight into her doom now Little 'Trina watches everything that happens down below But doesn't scream and Cynthia is howling at the moon now Tomorrow, 'Trina's gonna wake up Wondering if it was really all a dream

[Outro: Daveed Diggs] Cynthia Cynthia Cynthia

cw : justified murder , but also unjustified abuse

the song mama werewolf scratches that gay itch of : if i ever become abusive to my potential future child or children : shoot me with a fucking gun

the song mama werewolf is also infuriating because its someone saying theyre losing control , which is not how abuse works - that they " know it will never change " and tasking their child with fixing the siuation .

REAL werewolves pick up a fucking book and acknowledge their part in destroying the countryside and KNOW YOU CAN STOP - AND THEN STOP

i swear to god these betas /j

brandi carlile is cool and probably just expressing her emotions but not everyone is cool - additionally if u r abusive for the love of god dont harm urself and go to therapy

[ID: A drawing of a vaguely lupine and humanoid creature partially made of plants. 

The creature is drawn standing on all fours facing left in 3/4ths view with it’s eyes facing the viewer. The creature has a long neck and head with a sharp bend in the neck. Its long face is pointed downwards and smiling, with large ribbed lips pulled back to reveal sharp teeth. It has small pointed ears at the top of its head and three visible eyes. Its front limbs end in a mass of roots and spines erupting out of smooth skin. Its hind legs end in human feet that have been altered to be digitigrade. It has pendulous human breasts, a hanging belly with rolls of fat on its back. A mass of bell shaped flowers erupt from its crotch and continue out to line the underside of a thorny plant-like tail that is pointed upwards. 

The drawing is black line art with a red sketch faintly visible underneath./End ID]

Florawolf So like Audrey 2 but a werewolf.

Whorewolves.

[rosewind2007]

I was looking at wererats (I was reading about old English terms for people and ended up doing the why aren’t there wifwolves thing) and I have to say that I believe a rat contributed to writing this page

Anyway: it is weird about the lack of wifwolves

And yes, I like rats

Werewolf Girls Can’t Get A Date: The Hypermasculinity of Werewolves

Okay, so. Werewolves and gender, what a fucking mess.

It’s long, so it’s under a cut.

Keep reading

[maxinawell]

also. learned that "were" (of "werewolf") meant man/male, and thus there's another word for woman/female, "wif", whick is the origin of the "wo-" in woman (wif man), and "man" was just. person. this has been my ted talk, thank you wifs, weres, and men. (also wifwolves and manwolves are things. i declare it to be so. because why not)

[surehandharuspex]

hi tumblr! i was just released from my job and would like to be able to make some money, so i have stickers for you!

they say “i support queer wifwolves” with the sapphic flag, but are also kinda stealth and look like an etruscan vase painting of lycaon! so if you like greek mythology, werewolves, monsters, or femme queer art, id really appreciate if you checked them out or shared them! or not! whatever works!

The red one

[pendragonloki]

The O’Fáelad, the werewolves of ossory.

The O’Fáelad are the werewolves of Ireland and most of Europe. They are heavily associated with the sun, the moon and the stars.

The male werewolves are connected to the masculine sun, a deep connection with gold and the radient light, they use this connection to reveal paths and track their prey for the pack. Often their eyes have a faint glow in them often glowing depending on the time of day they were born in. and at night giving a slight glow like moonlight. Although not connected through their relation to the sun werewolves also tend to want to go into medicine.

They also have an immunity to fire and their weakness to silver

They like to decorate themselves with gold in both jewellery and in tattoos

The female werewolves or wifwolves are connected to the feminine moon, this deep connection with silver and the phases of the moon allows them to produce illusions and be aware of them. Their eyes reflect the phase of the moon they were born in and they pull strength at this time of the phases. They tend to protect the pack using their illusions werewolves cannot see through wifwolves illusions

Wifwolves are immune to the cold and unlike werewolves they are immune to silver bullets but instead are weak to gold they tend to wear silver jewellery and decorations

Zewolves are non binary O'faelad they are connected to the stars. With their connection with the stars connects them to navigation magic and prophecy telling through the stars they are often the guiders of the packs helping them navigate around

They tend to wear gems but opalite stones are a prefered

Though theses connections may make you believe they have harsh gender norms most wolf packs are very open to both trans wolves and non binary wolves. Often having celebrations for their coming out and have a ceremony for them selecting their new names.

Wolves born under a total Eclipse can be born as Eclipse wolves, wolves with powers of both the sun and moon. Though they are both connected to the masculine sun and feminine moon Eclipse wolves gender expression are dependent on the individual

The blood moon may also affect wolves being born but theses are incredibly rare individuals even more than the Eclipse wolves

(I am open to criticism over repersentation of the aspects of them i may have mistaken from my cis perspective so please let me know)

Someone accidentally said "Wermensch" and while most men are probably human, it is almost funny to just imagine that the standard for men is to be (part) wolves and that a human man is suddenly the outlier.

Also it kind of reminds me of people who occasionally used "werewoman" to mean the woman version of werewolves, but it just ended up being "man woman". Completely ignoring the poor wifwolves.

[mwgamera]

Friendly reminder that the gender neutral term for ‘werewolf’ is ‘man-wolf’, not the other way round. (And we sure need more wifwolves in fiction, regardless of how you call them.)

[crazywolf828]

Saw your terminology tags about wifwolves, and you're quite right; the wooferspeak was me trying to make a funny. Not that I actually expect anything like this in-show, but now I'm pondering non-wolf therianthrope forms that might fit Dourest Addams (lynx? Stoat? Some kinda viper?).

I mean personally I'd say a panther (despite panthers not actually being a species) which would be a werecat which are called Ailuranthropes (terrible name really). The black cat comparison along with all it's superstitions really work well for Wednesday I think. Plus we love cats and dogs dynamic😂 though a viper is a really cool idea, weresnakes are something like ophidianthropes (my spelling might be wrong there) but also consider Wednesday making the character in her story a weresnake? I dunno it's late and I haven't slept😅
