I like when I have dream shifts just not when I lose the 50/50 and wake up to then have a bit of species dysphoria.

Its not to bad most times it's just an uncomfortable feeling but there's times where it'll last and I gotta do something about.

Theriform [Official Coining Post]

Theriform

Adjective (can be applied as a noun in certain phrasing, see examples)

From θηρίον (thēríon) [diminutive of θήρ thḗr, “wild beast”] and μορφή (morphe) ["shape"/"figure"/"look"].

Definition:

A theriform animal is one which was born into a body that is typical/expected of it's species and observable as such by everyone, with species-typical levels of sapience/intelligence and whose behaviour etc is unaltered by being born into a human body/raised in a form perceived as human*. All components must be present to count.

It is not the 'opposite' of therian despite similar etymology but is instead to be viewed as a complimentary term to therian, nonhuman, alterhuman, otherkin etc as it exists to specify certain details of a species whilst not invalidating the identities of those who are not theriform. It is made to replace potentially invalidating phrases like 'bio(logical) animal' or 'real animal'.

It is not an identity label and therefore has no flag or symbol and does not need one. Do not create these things please, or use the term to describe yourself on a personal level.

Alternative versions for non-animals could include: floraform, nat(ur)form, technoform, fictoform*, feyform, voidform, starform, divineform etc

FAQ HERE

Examples:

"Lol it's so funny being a cat and having a theriform cat as a pet we're both just kitties vibing but with different body shapes."

"Just because they're the same species as you does not mean you are able to take care of wild theriforms."

"The fact that there aren't that many theriforms of my species is so saddening."

"I wanna do quads alongside a pack of theriform wolves so bad!"

"I am transspecies, here is what I do/what I want to do to look more theriform."

"I wonder if theriforms get species dysphoria?"

*in the case of fictional humans, should you want to apply it there, assume this to mean 'in this world' as in the fictoform has not been a physical human in this world and thus had their behaviour influenced by existing here.

honestly if i were to transform into a wolf right now id have to cry for a few days because i would miss eating chocolate and sweets

[deer-elf]

As much as I would love it...I would want to turn back just for chocolate and other sweet treats ,-, Best case for me is hoping i could just shapeshift.

[sillycorvidx]

doing quads is really fun until all of my joints explode and I just lie there in pain

“physical, biological and delusional alterhumans make the alterhuman community look bad!”

“neopronouns and xenogenders make the queer community look bad!”

“self diagnosis makes the disabled community look bad!”

aren’t you tired of this already.

reminder, a therian is someone who identifies as a non-human animal on any level.

an alterhuman is someone who experiences humanity in a way that most would consider unusual and experiences alternative to being human. an alternative human experience and an alternative to being human. this term is sometimes used as an umbrella term for the community.

(some use alterbeing too, someone who experiences being in a way that most would consider unusual. an alternative being experience.)

a non-human is someone who identifies as non-human on any level. this term is sometimes used as an umbrella term for the community.

an otherkin is someone who identifies as a non-human, usually mythical or fantasy, this term is sometimes used as an umbrella term for the community.

an otherlink is someone who voluntarily identifies as a non-human on any level for any reason. coping, loving, dysphoria, 'heartedness, fun, and much more.

an otherheart is someone who feels a strong connection with anything. usually with feelings of being family or close friends, understanding (which can sometimes overlap with relating), being two sides of the same coin, being a reflection of each other, or being a projection of the 'hearted individual.

anything with "kin" attached (ex: conceptkin, placekin, plantkin, dragonkin) is usually only used for/by otherkin, classifying someones (other)kintype. As in what kind of grouping of otherkin they identify as.

anything with "type" attached (ex: kintype, hearttype, linktype, syntype, kithtype) is usually a more specific classification, like this:

alterhuman (umbrella term) -> therian (sub-label) -> theriotype (sub-label specification, what kind of grouping of therian they identify as) and is mostly used like "____ is my (label)type"

TikTok therians the second you use a piece of taxidermy that isn’t a tail as gear:

[deer-elf]

I really want taxidermy wolf paws. I've seen a few creatures with them and they look so cool.

[winrytheweirdo]

our community would be stronger if we all got along and didn’t push out others for being too “weird”

[deer-elf]

still haven't told my friends that I'm a therian..although...one might know cause I've been reposting alterhuman tiktoks and they have seen them. Of course there probably not gonna bring it up till I do. And i still haven't had a good time to just bring it up. 🙃

Also i went ahead and made a tag for me to use when I'm just yapping either about my alterhumanity or just anything else.

Also bc I want to post more again and not have to worry about taging my post. It's been keeping me from posting things bc I can't figure out how to tag it

[deer-elf]

I've been obsessed with animal jam lately and I wanted a deer avatar but it's not available rn so I got creative

Pictures below cut

Love this outfit. bat wings are more of a creative part. They also they don't have (specifically) a red wolf avatar so I got the dingo and made it look like a red wolf as best as I could

I love them

Pros of having a human body:

[plain text: pros of having a human body]

★ I can eat avocado and chocolate

★ I have (or could have but I'm too lazy to exercise) a really nice resistance

★ I can enjoy music (most non-human animals sense the music as regular noise)

★ chocolate

Cons of having a human body:

[PT: cons of having a human body: End PT.]

★ I have to be part of human society

★ I don't have sharp teeth

★ I'm just a pretty weird human to everyone else

★ dysphoria :(

★ everything else that isn't pros :/

i find the concept of ‘therian idols’ extremely weird. most of them are liek, 14.. we’re all just animals, why do the skinny, able-bodied white ones with good masks n a lotta tails get more attention n luv?

(genuinely i told a girl i didnt do quads because it puts strain on my body n im genuinely just not fit nuff fer it n she looked at me.. funny. i might just start going under caninekin, bat / vampkin, alterhuman, otterkin n koalakin or holothere because i dont want to b associated with the whole tiktok / youtube therian culture)

[skylaar56]

I've been using the word "therian" less for this exact reason. I don't describe myself as one as often because of how much the therian community is just kids getting in fights and I don't want to be associated with a lot of the bigger names in the community

[werelioness]

Sometimes it feels like they have robbed us of the label "therian". Lots of animal folks have dropped the label just because of those vibes... Avoiding the therian label so they won't be associated with otherpaws and quadrobists... The therian/therianthrope is a very fitting label to me personally, an animal-person, a shapeshifter, a wereanimal. It's very sad it lost its original meaning. We need to return what's ours, when we got so ashamed of it..?

[canines-crown]

Completely agree with you there- We shouldn't just give up our label because it has quite literally been robbed from us on certain platforms (not saying that all therians on TikTok are actually "cringe otherpaw kids" or anything but you know)

Not using the label anymore will just cause the term of Therian to be associated MORE with what it is not

Everyone can label themselves however they want obviously! If you don't want to be called a therian then that's fine!!

But tucking in our tails just... Isn't the way to go, at least that's what I think

We should stick together and educate, educate, educate!

I mean, it's the same thing with furries right? A few years ago a TON of people thought it was just a sex thing, and many furries didn't like that obviously. But instead of just calling ourselves something different we kept posting about our hobby! And now much less people have this misconception!

Sometimes you don't have the energy to educate, and that's fine. It's not your job to do so! But as a WHOLE, I don't think we should just drop OUR label, that beings YEARS ago coined for themselves, for us

We should embrace who we are I think :3

[sunny-the-werewolf]

As someone on Tumblr and TikTok, it’s actually quite critical that you DO NOT STOP USING THERIAN just because TikTok kids use it. There are droves of children on TikTok trying to claim that Therian just means “relating a lot to a certain animal” and trying to bully actual Therians by calling them delusional.

I have been here for all the Kinnie drama, I’ve played these games before, please do not let them start appropriating and watering down the term Therian.

[deer-elf]

Never changing my label bc of this. The definition only changes if we let it. I completely agree of not changing it for these reasons. If anything it feels more like running away and giving up to me and therian just fits me so I would never change it anyways.
