Apparently There Are A Bunch Of Tiktokers Planning To Migrate To Tumblr So I'm On My Knees Begging PLEASE

so because I'm questioning my plurality I put together a list of "symptoms" that could explain it, I won't share them here unless anyone wants to see them but I think it's helping me figure things out

Please interact with this post if you're a trans or gender non-conforming age regressor/age dreamer so that we can all see we're valid members of our community who aren't alone!

Nonhuman expressions of affection are great. Purring. Exposing weak points as a show of trust. Head bonks. Preening and chewing. Nuzzling. Biting. Intertwining tails. Feeding each other. Little chuffs, chatters, beeps and squeaks. Fluffing up of feathers, fur or other things. Dancing to impress. Cleaning their fur, scales, feathers or skin. Sharing body heat. Ears pointing toward those you care about to show your full attention is on them. Slow blinking.

therians hate climate change

I am sick and I am tired of being forcibly shoved out of the spaces built by and for those like me.

I do not even care for insane allegations of things like "cultism", and I wish to say it clearly: leave our spaces alone.

How much entitlement does one need to have in order to first whine about our mere existence, then infiltrate the spaces we create for ourselves after being shunned and berated by you and your community?

'clinical zoanthropy' is not a mere identity label one can use as they please. It is a term with a history of extreme ableism and violence towards those like me, and it is a term we are forced to use not only to protect ourselves, but also to identify each other among the crowd. It is not about a metaphorical sense of physical therianthropy, it is a medical term used to enact violence onto us by the psych community, humanity and society itself. It was never something one could use as they please, and I'm really sad that I have to be so harsh over this, but it has to be said.

"why do you use this term if you claim you are not delusional?" Because I am forced to. If I don't, I get thrown into hell itself and forced to endure years of treatment to yet again mold me into the perfect, mindless citizen, all because I say "I am animal"—which is the damn truth. I have to use this term in order to be taken seriously as a person, in order to live as a person with even the minimal rights I can be given, and to not immediately be clocked as a madman (and even that fails).

And on top of that, even among this, it is still a term that helps us find each other. That helps us find a community. Due to how uncommon, "niche" it is, we easily can find each other among the general community, therefore find support and comfort... So, when a word this unused, exclusive to a very particular sort of a group suddenly goes boom, becomes mainstream and no longer exclusive to just us—we become unable to really find each other again. Therefore, our only line of support gets cut short.

The therian community has to accept one thing—not everything is for you. Just like not every closed practice is meant to be shared, that too applies here. You do not have to use a stronger term to be taken seriously, you are not less valid because you are a therian rather than a "zoanthrope". Both describe different experiences, neither are less valid than the other. You have to accept this, and get over this goddamned inferiority complex.

I really hate engaging in online discourse, but for once, this is genuinely important to me. I do not want my community to be infiltrated and sanitized just like many others were in the past.

Ok so this is going to come off as rude...but as the one who came up with the concept of theriform I have to specify;

It is not an identity label.

It is a term to allow us to talk about members of our species whose bodily structure and levels of sapience are typical for that of our species, without using invalidating terms like 'biological (animal)' or 'real (animal)'.

If those who were born into differently shaped bodies with human-level sapience start to use it too the term becomes meaningless and inaccurate.

Please do not use it as an identity label.

hot take that shouldn’t be hot:

asexual/aromantic/aspec people who are also cis and straight should be welcomed and accepted in the queer community
