Been looking into otherkin stuff lately (b/c I think its so pog go you funky little creachurs) and I may have girlbossed too close to the sun...

Anyways question for alterhumans/therians of all kinds: how did you narrow down your kin/theriotype? I think I may be bugkin but there are... so many creatures out there how do I know which one is me?

Edit: *looks at you like this*

Northern mole cricket seems... approximately correct? Plus they live in my range! :D

Edit 2: I think the general bugkin/bughearted/bugnatured terms fit the best (at least for now) bc I just. Vibe with all bugs :] I'm just a lil guy

VERY IMPORTANT

This is all I want in life to be affirmed and happy

I still haven't got a label for this feeling beyond "I am bug myself, I am not a specific other species, me as I am is my own brand of insect" but I think that some other cladotherians and some psychological 'type havers might agree.

There's something so powerful about knowing my mind, my entire essence now, is just bug. I call it loosely bug cladotherian, bug conceptkin (I actually kinda prefer bugkin then therian), but it's all getting across the same thing. I love bugs, I am a bug. I don't get the urge or dysphoria directly, but I do get happiness from being treated like I should. It makes me smile and be giddy.

I am bug, which bug? I dunno. I am a bug like Thor is thunder. I am a bug like a Chihuahua is a dog. I am a bug like Butterfree. It is my label, it is my term, it is descriptive. Almost like a human is a human, or a man is male. I have such a connection to the actual word it's pretty crazy.

This might be average kin feelings but it feels different. There is a lot of emphasis and joy from the word that I wonder if it's also a form of gender affirmation for me, I wouldn't be surprised.

Buggender here I come!
