I feel the same about being a fox! I think it's pretty much like some trans folks don't feel so miserable about their body but they're still trans
Otherkin
A place for otherkin, therian, and alterhuman individuals. Feel free to join! Please be kind to each other!
Think of it this way. Cis people don't ever ask themselves "Am I trans?" Or, at least they never dwell and obsess on the question like trans people do. (That was my experience at least.)
I'm not therian/otherkin, to be clear, but I feel like the mere fact that you are genuinely asking these questions to yourself is probably an indicator of SOMETHING at least. Maybe you're not otherkin after all -- only you would know! -- but I empathize with the frustration of not having an answer.
(Edit: typo)
I consider myself alterhuman, and I feel somewhat similar. I just don't really vibe with my body too much, I'd prefer to be an anthro, but it's more of an indifference than dysphoria.
Though it does affect my sexuality to some extent too.
Esp if you vibe with the term otherkin I'd def say you can be ^^
I guess I might vibe. It's just that, my feelings aren't consistent.
Sometimes I feel like I have species dysphoria, though it's not agony, more like disappointment. But those moments are rare.
Despite that, I'd say I vibe with idea of myself as an anthro raccoon.
Lemme put this way. Humans aren't worried they might be otherkin.
