I’m Not Really A Fan (at All) Of This Persistence Within The Therian Community That, If You Are Domesticated,

I’m not really a fan (at all) of this persistence within the therian community that, if you are domesticated, this means you’re just a “cutesified” version of your wild (or wild-er) counterparts.

Being a dog was never a “stepdown” from being a wolf or a fully-wild canid for me. In-fact, it was always the opposite. Being a wolf would ignore the characteristics I’ve been bred to have and therefore indulge in; instinctually or not, which would diminish the entirety of me.

-Sure, a wolf spends a good portion of its life chasing cervids down. Sure, a wolf spends its life trying to survive. But why are these acts suddenly synonymous with “far stronger” and “far cooler”? -And who said domesticity was simple? It seems inherently disrespectful to prod that “wild is better”, implying that the usage of domesticating a specimen..helping eachother in the act of work, through blood and sweat, is just some “foolish game of domination.”

I like being domestic, I love it. I prefer it over being “wholly wild” - Because being domestic is strength, it’s the hunger of needing something so bad that you find eachother time and time again. Human and dog. Domestication was never “the easy way out”, it’s just another form of life - another life being born. I just.. have never been a fan of this assumption that domestication is a loss of harsh wilderness, when domesticity has never been inherently easier.

Some activities that help me feel connected to my kintypes:

Light entity

- singing

- dancing (music plays a major role for my species)

- swimming (because it feels like flying/levitating)

- swinging on a swingset (same reason as swimming)

- meditating

- yoga and other exercises that improve flexibility (that's the closest you can get to shapeshifting with the human body)

Cat

- playing and hanging out with my cat

- climbing/bouldering

- doing obstacle courses (you can make one at home with various household objects)

- eating messily and licking my plate afterwards

- roaming outside at night (make sure to do this in a safe area and/or with people you trust)

- doing nature photography (because it feels like you're hunting an animal without actually killing it)

Obviously I am quite an energetic and active person, so these activities won't be suitable for everyone, but I hope that someone finds this post to be of help. I might add other stuff later on
