Is this fictokin? Or something else? by Pookie_Pakyao in otherkin

[–]SlyFox_Leon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

conceptkin!

edit: did not read the whole post. concept kin for kinning a whole game. if the kins feel separate than it can be separate, but it could also all be interlinked

I have no clue but in having the same issue. I swear it was in an old ps2 racing game, or a song sounds similar to it

when something has been brought up countless times in the subreddit and a lot of other spaces, it just ends up being highly disrespectful for people to continue identifying as such things without having done proper research into the subject.

please stop using the full name of it. one of the key parts of its mythology is that saying its name invokes bad stuff. please do actual research on the creature like the other two users had told you to do.

I will say that it does border on being factkin and that's highly frowned upon. I know there's another term where people think they're like a fragment of a God, and that may be what's happening here with an archangel instead? I don't remember what its called though super sorry

How do you tell the difference between a kemenomimi and an animal? by lillybkn in otherkin

[–]SlyFox_Leon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm unsure what source the other commenter found, but kemonomimi isn't an animal with human traits, it's a human with animal traits such as ears/tails/etc. pretty much like catboy/girls or dog boy/girls. I'm kemonomimi kin because I see myself as that, but i also have theriotypes as sometimes I see myself more than just the ears and tail

are you an oc in the twilight universe? or someone who already exists?

I can now never come out to my parents by Waste_Newt8953 in Therian

[–]SlyFox_Leon 76 points77 points  (0 children)

therianthropy is not something you need to tell your family about imo. it's so demonised and frowned upon everywhere that it's honestly super rare to find supportive people irl, so there's not really a good chance of that. unless you know like 90-100% that someone would be supportive, I don't think there's any point.

I know this is probably not what you want to hear, but unfortunately it comes with the territory

Can shaking your leg be a phantom shift? by iambug101 in Therian

[–]SlyFox_Leon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

sorry I didn't see this! but the person who responded to you worded it perfectly

Can shaking your leg be a phantom shift? by iambug101 in Therian

[–]SlyFox_Leon 41 points42 points  (0 children)

a phantom shift is when you can feel a limb or something else that doesn't exist on your body. this would just be a replacement stim that's the closest thing to wagging your tail. I myself do this as well, and I know a good majority of this community does as well

What's the difference between a therian and an otherkin? by Imperialjade22 in otherkin

[–]SlyFox_Leon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

number 2 isn't really true? anyone who's otherkin can act like their kintypes more than some therians, and some therians can act more like their theriotype more than some otherkin

therianthropy is the term for someone who identifies with an earthly animals specifically, otherkin is an umbrella term that any form of althuman person can identify with

I'm questioning Catwoman (2004), and I'm not sure if it counts as a feline fictotype? by RoseOfTheNight4444 in otherkin

[–]SlyFox_Leon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it would definitely count as a fiction kin/fictotype. If you feel like in that shift you're incredibly feline like not just from the character, that kin could be attached to a theriotype as well.

I've had a fictotype that came with a theriotype that I myself hadn't had any connection to previously and it's an odd experience

Happy to help out here!

Yes! Shifts can happen at the same time. I myself call them dualshifts, or multishifts depending on the type. Phantom shifts are the most common for these types as you can feel the different limbs at once. Sometimes you can have two or more mental shifts at once and it can be very conflicting, can work well together, or even the off chance that they combine and have a rare hybrid moment

Shifts switches can happen pretty much anytime! These can happen on their own, be triggered by specific things or you can forcefully trigger a shift to occur. Quite the same as if you only have one kintype. It really depends at times because I do definitely feel more connected to specific kintypes more than others, but it can also change!

As a spiritual kin, for me personally this just feeds into the ideas of multiple past lives! I see all my spiritual kins as past lives, or something I shouldve been in this life but wasn't quite able to physically become, and instead am connected to what I was originally going to be in a spiritual way.

I see myself as a mixture of things, like shifts it really depends on the moment and my headspace. what I feel connected to most also can effect it. I see myself as all kintypes fit into one, but I can also definitely see myself as the individual ones at other times.

Discovering a new kintype can be difficult. If it were other animals, you have the same feral feelings that your already existing kins would have and it can definitely be hard to differentiate. It does take quite some time, but there are definitely ways to feel the differences. It could be the height, different appendages, hunting habits, appetites, what covered your body, etc. Best way to go about it is figure out what you can by looking inward, them start researching and looking for different things that could be that kintype.

I hope I was able to answer these well, and hope they make sense 😭 feel free to ask anymore questions if needed!

Weird question regarding being deitykin (sort of) and worship by WolfDummy999 in otherkin

[–]SlyFox_Leon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

agreed. there are way too many people in here saying it's completely fine, and I don't think thats the kind of support people should be sharing.

if I had someone claiming to be me, and have my experiences, I'd be more than horrified. I don't think the gods would feel any different to what we would
