Otherkin, or therians, are not a kink. They’re folks that believe themselves on a spiritual level to have the spirit of something else (animal spirits).

Therian here: It’s like dysphoria about your species.

How does that even happen? I know exactly the feelings you’re talking about, I think; but just… how did our brains decide being human just wasn’t who we are? Like, what the fuck lol.

Edit: also, why are so many therians foxes, dogs or wolves? I’m not sure I’ve ever seen bird, feline, lizard or other therians.

Because those animals are cool. You see the others you mentioned too, but you don’t see animals no one likes. It’s less soul searching and finding you are something else and more finding something cool and wanting to be like it.

Which, don’t get me wrong, i totally get. I’m a transhumanist, i understand being just human is a negative.
