hold to zoom! sorry the writing is tiny lol. click the arrows to advance or go back, and remix your own bingo results! i’ve seen some really cool therian bingos, but i wanted to make my own since the ones i’ve seen seem to be made up of mainly “does quadrobics” or “makes gear”. i’m not going to water down my identity into stereotypical things that are associated with it. therianthropy is a term used by someone who involuntarily identifies as a non-human animal. it is a synonym for animalkin. therianthropy belongs under the umbrella of otherkinity and alterhumanity, however one does not have to use those labels if they are a therian. as a therian, i am not made up of gear, my identity is not defined by how i look. i’m going to try to unpack one experience physical therianthropy [ of which there are many, individual experiences ] here too, metaphorical physical therianthropy, but as i do not experience it, please take this definition with a grain of salt, and please inform me if i’ve misinterpreted it! metaphorical physical therians are folk who experience their therianthropy physically in a metaphorical sense. this does not mean that they are delusional, merely that they view their physical state as an extension of their internal one, similar to how a trans woman still might identify their body as a woman’s because it belongs to them, a woman, a physical cat therian identifies their body as that of a cat, because it belongs to them, a cat. i hope this clears some misinfo up ^^
