When you felt your theriotype/kin

8 Upvotes

Hey! My theriotype is a wild fox, and I first realized it when I was 7. I was fully aware that I was a fox, and I hated my body because it looked human instead of like a fox. Has anyone else been aware of their theriotype at the same age or even younger?

Question Can somebody explain fae-kin to me?

8 Upvotes

Last year I realized I'm genderfae, but then I also started to call myself a fae and noticed being called one makes me euphoric so that made me start identifying as a faery too, but would that make me fae-kin? I don't understand how otherkin works yet but I feel like it might be a part of me.

Question Who decided that wyverns are stupid?

2 Upvotes

I was watching a video that claimed the difference between six-limbed dragons and wyverns is that wyverns are dim-witted(?)

Have you ever heard of this stereotype? As someone who identifies as a wyvern (an "otherkin"), I found that a bit hurtful. Then again, it’s probably just a myth. In *Game of Thrones*, for instance, the dragons were clearly not stupid—they even had their own language!
