a term for being born as a canine! this is a term similar to agab that's separate from the intersex experience as to not disrespect it.

I kept seeing amazing half serious half joking Mikus from around the world and NEEDED to contribute.
Here you can see her in a couple of "typical" outfits (explanation under the cut)
The upper left Miku (closeup in the third picture) is dressed in technical clothes for hiking in the Alps.
The bigger Miku has a bit more cultural detail: red flannels and brown corduroy pants are the stereotypical clothes of the "bacan", a person who's deeply tied to their Aosta Valley roots and lives for agriculture and raising cows. Cows are a very important part of valdotèn culture, and every year we have a competition, the Bataille des Reines, where cows called reines (queens) compete to select the Queen of queens (yes, I am serious).
She's also wearing a whistle, a sequined fedora and a red and black shawl with her birthyear and name embroidered in gold, typical clothing of the "coscritti": every year the 18 year olds of every village reunite on the days of the village celebration and, in a tradition left over from the times of military conscription, party and drink (making as much noise as possible, usually).
Her shirt sports an illustration of the Greundzo - a popular mascot based on local folklore. Last but not least, in her hand is a "coppa dell'amicizia", a wooden cup with multiple spouts traditionally used to drink with friends to seal and celebrate said friendship.
I put so much detail and love into this drawing, I hope y'all can appreciate it lol
