i don't trust anyone who says "i don't hate ALL men, just cishet men" to not extend that to trans and other queer men whenever it suits their narrative. sure you say that it's only cishet men you hate, but is it really? or are you willing to extend that to other men whenever and wherever it pleases you? this is a dangerous line of thinking because the temptation to say "well x type of man is BASICALLY a cishet man so it's okay to hate them," will always be there.
i already see this in effect with aro and ace cishet men. people will go "well they're not REALLY queer, they're JUST cishet. being aro or ace 'doesn't count' they're still a cishet man." where does "cishet man" even begin or end? does this include gender non conforming cishet men? intersex cishet men? aspectrum cishet men? genderqueer cishet men? bi/multigender people who also identify as cishet men as well as multigender? this isn't the way to go about life. it's a dangerous game that no one should be playing.
I'm not a human, I've never been a human and probably never will be one. I've known this for as long as I knew I didn't fit in "correctly" but the annoying thing is I grew up in a human world which cared a LOT about manners
so when I try to be wild and free it just, doesn't work. my brain tells me it wants to eat with its mouth and on all fours but my muscle memory and conscience says that's wrong bc I grew up in a completely opposite way
~~~
I want to be wild and free and feel comfortable being animalistic and sometimes I can, but sometimes due to my nurture I just can't
it's frustrating

Beings keep forgetting what alterhumanity is about (from what I've seen) in and outside the community so here's a reminder
Under a cut because it's long
Alterhumanity is about being partially non-human
Alterhumanity is about being fully non-human
Alterhumanity is about being human but with a connection to non-human things/being non-human
Alterhumanity is not a cookie cutter design and each one is different. And not just species wise
Alterhumanity is not about wearing/owning/making gear of any kind
Alterhumanity is about accepting 'delusional' or 'crazy' alterhumans
Alterhumanity is about community and Beng brought together
Alterhumanity is about love and compassion
Alterhumanity is about creativity
Alterhumanity is not about quadrobics
Alterhumanity is about acceptance
Alterhumanity is not something all need to be proud or open about
Alterhumanity is about accepting 'weird' species
Reblog if you think trans women:
A. Are women
B. Can be lesbians
Please interact with this post if you're a trans or gender non-conforming age regressor/age dreamer so that we can all see we're valid members of our community who aren't alone!

I am sick and I am tired of being forcibly shoved out of the spaces built by and for those like me.
I do not even care for insane allegations of things like "cultism", and I wish to say it clearly: leave our spaces alone.
How much entitlement does one need to have in order to first whine about our mere existence, then infiltrate the spaces we create for ourselves after being shunned and berated by you and your community?
'clinical zoanthropy' is not a mere identity label one can use as they please. It is a term with a history of extreme ableism and violence towards those like me, and it is a term we are forced to use not only to protect ourselves, but also to identify each other among the crowd. It is not about a metaphorical sense of physical therianthropy, it is a medical term used to enact violence onto us by the psych community, humanity and society itself. It was never something one could use as they please, and I'm really sad that I have to be so harsh over this, but it has to be said.
"why do you use this term if you claim you are not delusional?" Because I am forced to. If I don't, I get thrown into hell itself and forced to endure years of treatment to yet again mold me into the perfect, mindless citizen, all because I say "I am animal"—which is the damn truth. I have to use this term in order to be taken seriously as a person, in order to live as a person with even the minimal rights I can be given, and to not immediately be clocked as a madman (and even that fails).
And on top of that, even among this, it is still a term that helps us find each other. That helps us find a community. Due to how uncommon, "niche" it is, we easily can find each other among the general community, therefore find support and comfort... So, when a word this unused, exclusive to a very particular sort of a group suddenly goes boom, becomes mainstream and no longer exclusive to just us—we become unable to really find each other again. Therefore, our only line of support gets cut short.
The therian community has to accept one thing—not everything is for you. Just like not every closed practice is meant to be shared, that too applies here. You do not have to use a stronger term to be taken seriously, you are not less valid because you are a therian rather than a "zoanthrope". Both describe different experiences, neither are less valid than the other. You have to accept this, and get over this goddamned inferiority complex.
I really hate engaging in online discourse, but for once, this is genuinely important to me. I do not want my community to be infiltrated and sanitized just like many others were in the past.
