I do experience species dysphoria, but not in a "I wish I was a real animal" way. Its more like a sudden hyperaware moment of "I'm not supposed to understand human language and conepts or idea, I shouldn't know these things the way I do. Because of their perception of what I am, they know me as human. I am not human, I am entirely a canine, but you don't see that. I am trapped inbetween my exsistence and their view. How miserable."
I need to find the courage to be weird and just myself >:3
does anyone have any tips maybe
Reblog if you're not human
I felt like this was a reminder worth saying due to some stuff I see lolz
Not all transspecies people are physical nonhumans, not all physical nonhumans are holotheres, and not all holotheres are transspecies
You don't have to be one thing to be the other(s) and being one doesn't automatically make you the other(s)
You choose what labels fit you
Transspecies ≠ physical nonhuman ≠ holothere ≠ Transspecies
You don't have to transition to be transspecies
You don't have to have dysphoria to be transspecies
You can already be your -type and use transspecies
Being transspecies doesn't just mean becoming an animal

Note: I tend to use therian as an adjective the way theriform can be an adjective! I prefer this bc when I say 'I am a coyote therian' it feels like my therian-ness is the most important part, and coyote is a descriptor, but when I say 'I am a therian coyote' it acknowledges that my coyotehood is the most important part, and therian just describes how I experience coyotehood
If you uwuify my nonhuman experience, I will tear you to shreds.
Normalize being wild and feral in this community. We don’t have to be cute and innocent.
why do i have to learn how to drive im supposed to be running on my paws in the woods and spooking people :(
apparently there are a bunch of tiktokers planning to migrate to tumblr so i'm on my knees begging PLEASE THERIANS OF TUMBLR. AIM TO EDUCATE. NOT BE MEAN. I used to fakeclaim fictionkin and people who had more than 3 kintypes and now I literally kin the concept of dissociation I promiseee i PROMISEEE THEY CAN LEARN.... Being mean won't help they'll just be pushed away aim to educate and do it at a slow pace. Let them know therianthropy isn't a connection, and use the term otherhearted as proof. Ask them what's wrong with identifying as an animal physically, and tell them that anti-therians will hate us anyways and there's no point alienating parts of the community that do nothing wrong. Gently let them know that not every alterhuman has the ability to do quadrobics and that saying it's required for an identity is ableist. BE PATIENT. BE KIND. IF YOU'RE NOT THEY WON'T LISTEN. BEING HARASSED WAS WHY I KEPT HATING ALTERHUMANS WHO WERE SOMETHING OTHER THAN THERIAN/OTHERKIN.. BEING HARASSED WAS WHY IT TOOK AGES FOR ME TO ACCEPT THERIOGENDER BEINGS. BEING HARASSED WAS WHY I COULDN'T EVEN COMPREHEND CONCEPTKIN FOR MONTHS. If someone had told me about it respectfully i may have changed my mind so much sooner so don't make the same mistake. thank you for coming to my ted talk
HEY IM WATER !!!!
Flag 1: Water Alterhuman/alterbeing
Flag 2: Waterhearted or water otherhearted
Flag 3: Waterkin or water otherkin
Flag 4: Water holothere (I think that's a thing?)
Flag Descriptions: Each flag has eight stripes and have the same colors. The top stripe is a navy blue, the second stripe is a lighter navy blue, the third stripe is a slightly muted royal blue, the fourth stripe is a muted mid-tone blue, the fifth stripe is turquoise, the sixth stripe is cyan, the seventh stripe is teal, and the last stripe is a darker teal. Flag 1 has the alterhuman symbol, flag 2 has the otherhearted symbol, flag 3 has the otherkin symbol, and flag 4 has the holothere symbol.
Flag explanation:
The colors on this flag are meant to represent the different types of waters out there, including (but not limited to) lakes, pools, oceans, rivers, estruaries, reservoirs, etc.
If flags for these labels/identities already exist, consider them alternative flags!
(The otherhearted one was self indulgent, so I decided to do other symbols/flags too :] )
