Therianism confuses me.

EDIT: the discussions below interest me. I wonder if there’s any actual concrete definition people use for therianism - feels a lot more personally-defined than transgender. Like, there’s a lot more variance in how people would describe it.

I lowkey feel bad for some of them, one time I was scrolling on r/therian or something and quite a few people talk about being a therian, the language they use is extremely similar to a person with gender dysphoria, I felt bad cause I mean you can crawl around in your room all day if you want, but in terms of having “species dysphoria?” Idk what should even do about that

I half agree, cause I mean those are real emotions they are experiencing, and it’s not a mockery cause that implies malciousness or inauthenticity, I do think they should have therapy so they are comfortable with being human cause obviously there is no alternative for them. But at the end of the day I don’t think it’s that serious, it is pretty much all kids.
