So, what am I?
12 years ago
Apparently I am not the normal furry...
I was talking in IRC and G+ about my origins, as it were. Apparently I am what is known as Otherkin or Therian.
This is, in basic terms, animal bond/soul/mind in human body.
"Therianthrope /THi(ə)rēˌan THrōp’/
A person who is, feels, or believes he/she is in part or whole (non-physically) one or more non-human animals on an integral, personal level"
"noun
"Therianthropy is a mental, emotional, spiritual or religious connection and empathy with an animal." - www.were.net
So there we are. Interestingly my friends on G+ were ok with this.
There were a few people on IRC who refused the concept - much as many non-furs would.
At the end of the day, we have Furs who are as they are by choice as a hobby and you have people like me. It is us.
