I Think We Need To Normalize Using "people" As A Species Neutral Word.

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.

are there any nonhuman who are their species due to trauma with that species? I know of those who are their species caused by a trauma response but for example, a dogkin because they had been bitten by a dog

no one has to share due to trauma being a personal experience, but if anyone would like too I am very curious and would like to learn more!

they deserve to hang out more

likes do nothing!

for the being that asked !!!

@dragonwithawolftattoo (I hope pings are okay !)

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

Shout out to regressors with messy rooms

Whether that be just a small mess or you have trash and dirty dishes everywhere

you are no less of a regressor just bc your rooms isn't clean or "aesthetic"

I hope you someday have the energy to clean, but until then don't feel ashamed or any less valid

I am an animal. I hate hiding the fact that parts of being an animal are vicious, upsetting, gross, even unwanted.

If you are not a human in literally any way, please play into your animalistic side. Being an animal is dirty, unclean, wild, chaotic, and so so much more than how it is presented on the surface of a lot of therian/otherkin/etc communities.

Animals have animal instincts, I am not wrong for having these instincts, whatever they may be.

There is nothing wrong with not being this but so many creatures and beings are this and should not be afraid of who they really are.

Be your true wild self.

i just literally don't get how someone being a furry endangers anyone. like how. explain. what the person shopping for milk in the grocery store next to you wearing dog ears and a tail is actually murdering you via psychic damage? shut the fuck up just let people exist in ways that bring us joy my god some people are so joyless
