It’s okay not to always feel like your theriotypes 24/7. It doesn’t make you a “false” therian.
It’s okay that you don’t have shifts.
It’s okay if you aren’t out to your parents quite yet.
It’s okay if you choose not to label yourself. Labels are just tools to help explain YOUR experience to others. You don’t need to prove yourself to anybody. You are as valid as the ones who do label themselves.
It’s okay if you don’t experience animalistic urges or instincts. Therianthropy is more about feelings than behaviors. It’s about the core sense of feeling as though you are an animal.
—————————————————————————
IT IS NOT OKAY to shame others who do not express their therianthropy openly.
IT IS NOT OKAY to invalidate others just because they don’t experience “common” alterhuman experiences.
IT IS NOT OKAY to call others fake or a poser because they have a “common” theriotype.
IT IS NOT OKAY to belittle others in any way, shape, or form because they experience their alterhumanity differently than you do yours.
I love you all, please stay safe and remember to have a bite to eat and something to drink. Remember, you are VALID!
