My Mind Is A Dog And A Human - Tumblr Posts

This idea that therianthropy, otherkinity, nonhumanity and other forms of alterhumanity is either completely nonhuman, or completely human that identifies as a nonhuman creature bothers me. It's either we are crazy to think we are animals, or we're just roleplaying or regressing as animals and not taking it all that seriously.

One can be both human and animal. One can be completely animal. One can be completely human. There's no wrong or better way to be a therianthrope, otherkin or any other kind of nonhuman.

The way most make it feel like you have to pick one or the other, and how folks take sides, bothers me. The ableism coming from those who think the fully nonhuman are crazy and should be locked up. And the misanthropy coming from those who think the human nonhumans are awful or below them for being part human.

And I see it the worst in the physical nonhuman groups. One can be both physically or biologically a human and a nonhuman animal at the same time. How do you think werewolves or any kind of shapeshifter works? They aren't only one creature. They're both, or all their forms at the same time.

I'm both human and nonhuman. I take my nonhumanity seriously. This isn't a game or roleplay to me. I am an eagle and dog just as much as I am a human. And I've gotten shit from both sides. I'm delusional for thinking I am my theriotypes and fictotypes. And I'm too human to be taken seriously.

I didn't word this as well as I wanted, simply because I'm a tired old mutt and english is hard. But I hope you get what I mean.
