therian culture is wanting to sleep all day bc… that’s what most of them do

.

"Guyysss... therians don't ACTUALLY think we're animals haha..." SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT THE FUCK UP SHUT THE FUCK UP

At this point I prefer the company of those who are straight up physically nonhuman and are PROUD AND OPEN ABOUT THAT FACT, instead of YOU fuckers who tip-toe around your identity to make OTHER PEOPLE more comfortable.

GET MAD. BE ANIMALISTIC. WEAR A COLLAR. BARK AT PEOPLE WHO PISS YOU OFF. WEAR GEAR. DON'T WEAR GEAR. FIND YOUR FELLOW CREATURES. LEARN ABOUT THE START OF OUR COMMUNITY.

BE UNAPOLOGETICALLY SCARY AND INTIMIDATING TO NORMIES.

Nonhuman expressions of affection are great. Purring. Exposing weak points as a show of trust. Head bonks. Preening and chewing. Nuzzling. Biting. Intertwining tails. Feeding each other. Little chuffs, chatters, beeps and squeaks. Fluffing up of feathers, fur or other things. Dancing to impress. Cleaning their fur, scales, feathers or skin. Sharing body heat. Ears pointing toward those you care about to show your full attention is on them. Slow blinking.

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

tbh kinda a serious post

I feel like the therian community is kinda losing what therianthropy means. Esp the newer people. I’ve seen therians that wear gear be rude to therians that don’t. It was because they saw them as invalid.

Please don’t lose sight of what therianthropy actually is. And just because someone isn’t wearing gear doesn’t mean that they “aren’t a real therian” they just express themselves differently.

A cis woman tells me that maybe she should transition to gain male privilege as I'm recovering from getting beaten up in the men's bathrooms.

I tell her to be my guest and give me a call when she gets her jaw broken, I always carry a first aid kit and a pepper spray.

She calls me a misogynistic asshole.

A cis man tells me that he'd sure love some T.

Gave him my prescription and best of luck with the constant shortages and getting denied.

He calls me a pussy.

I'm fighting for my life and reproductive rights. I get told to get off women's fights, that it's not about me, like I shed my womb after my first T shot.

I search for support groups for SA victims, and I'm stuck in the same “women/NBs only”. Still shooting my shot, send an application. I introduce myself. Never get a call back.

I go to a trans night. Say I go by he/him. Get told back “yeah, that's how we all start !” by a trans woman. I'm too exhausted, I get up and I leave.

I hang out with my friends, one of them drunkenly says masculinity is a prison we must learn to escape. She gets rows of applause. Back to drinking alone.

Yes I could explain it. But who'd you rather be ? A delusional girl or a man made threat ?Or it could be better, I could just not exist ! And we'd bleach my corpse and I'd become a casualty. Not an F, ot an M, a W for Wound and for Wrong.

I put a candle on a single cupcake, 2 years on HRT. I blow it in the dark. Curtains closed like casket.

Fuck social norms. Embrace animal

Trying to prove a point

REBLOG IF YOU THINK AROACE / aro/ ace PEOPLE ARE A VALID PART OF THE LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY , LIKE IF YOU DON’T

hi!! so I'm gonna explain my own experience it could be different for others

basically, my body even tho it does not look like the stereotypical animal of what I am, is that animal. so my body (even if it doesn't "look" how it's supposed to) is that animal. I'm nonhuman and that makes every other part of me nonhuman, and that means biologically too!! my blood and bones and DNA are that of a ringtail (my species). some parts of me are more ringtail showing imo too. like my eyes, teeth, nails, proportions. basically my DNA and biological species isn't human either, it's a ringtail. because my body is physically my species that includes the inner workings of it too !! I hope this helps

@sleepy-sunny-puppy

OH MY GOD. PHYSICAL THERIANS ARE VALID. this shouldn't be discourse. if you are a physical anything, you are valid. I'm so sick and tired of the mainstream resources available saying it's all nonphysical or it's only okay if you "recognize your human body"

my body has never fucking been human and it never ever will be. for some, they do have a human body or partially do!!! and many of us don't as well!!!!

I am physically and biologically a ringtail and have never ever been human in literally any way. sure my sapience is higher but does that mean anything? NO I'm so frustrated and upset

thank you for reading my rant

do you have sensory issues and hate forks? me too!

** I did include some cultures I am not a part of, if I am spreading misinformation or anything wrong please tell me and I will correct it **

everything is under the cut :)

• this one is always a hit or miss but just use your hands !! now this obviously won't work for everyone, or for every food you eat, but it works for more things than you expect! I personally also do not care if I get messy hands while eating, but I know a lot of people do. almost all snack food I eat with my hands, of something has like bread or lettuce with what I'm eating I'll pick it up with that and eat, etc

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

• chopsticks !! now I know not everyone knows how to use them or can learn how to use them but they make these things called chopstick helpers, you can get the basic plastic one or ones shaped like animals, then they are basically just an extension of your fingers. once you get used to them it becomes pretty easy to use and quite effective

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

• something I recently started using is Japanese soup spoons, they have a big handle so easy to old and a bigger "basin" for food and liquid so it doesn't spill as easy as normal spoons. they come in SO MANY designs and colors they also have a BUNCH of like designs and shapes, some have a deeper or more shallow spoon part, different shaped handles, and they aren't super expensive to buy a set of them either

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

• another type of spoon is a spoon from Russia! I am not entirely sure of their origin other than they are functional art pieces, from just an observing point of view they also can serve as the same function as Japanese soup spoons. I've heard a few names for them and I'm not sure which is the correct one so I'll just list what I found :') (khokhloma, lozhka, melchior, cherkassky) these also tend to be on the more pricey side. remember! they are also art and part of a culture, same with Japanese soup spoons
