TikTok therians PMO sooooo bad!!!
Firstly, most of them aren't even therians, they're furries, otherpaw, or otherhearted individuals, which is fine I am also a furry and otherhearted creature. But so many of them have the gall to say I'm wrong when correcting them on what a therian is.
NO. It's not a connection, or your favourite animal, or a choice, or anything to do with gear and quads. Stfu.
THEN those that do know what actual therianthropy is either call physically identifying beings delusional, reality checking us all the time, or just... say we're not even therians??? Brotheeerrrrr. Tell me you know nothing about therianthropy or the history of the community without telling me....
Also, I just had a debate today with some therian saying you cant stop being a therian??? And if you 'stop' you weren't a therian in the first place bc that's one of the rules of therianthropy... Uh... yes you can.... identity is fluid and cam change. Also depends what the identity stems from. It's still involuntary, ofc, you cant choose to stop being a therian, but identity can fluxuate and change throughout your life which includes therianthropy. A being could wholeheartedly identify as an animal on every level for years but that identiry still has the possibility of changing and disappearing. They were still a therian during that time, but their not anymore. That's completely fine and completely valid!!!
Fuuuckkkk. I hate tiktok therians. The more I interact with them, the more I love therianblr 😭
