You know I've been thinking...

There’s a big push for not using terms like "depersoning" instead of "dehumanizing" going on in the alterhuman and nonhuman ccommunity, right?

However, don't a decent handful of alterhumans kinda dislike the term "person" because it's more so inherently used to mean "human"?

Our suggestion is that we could say "depersonify / depersonified / depersonification" ( personify / personified / personification as the base word ).

Which would also end up being even more inclusive to those in the community that are personified things, like objectkin or conceptkin, for example!

"Your fursuit is low quality"

For a long time, I never thought I could be a physical alterhuman because all I knew about physical alterhumans was they experienced physical shifts, and from what I know, I neither physically transform nor experience clinical lycanthropy. However, I've learned that not all physical alterhumans can be boiled down to just "physical shapeshifter." Some are always physically their 'type. Some have genetics of their 'type. Some simply assert that because they're nonhuman, so is their body, no matter what its external shape is.

All this to say, I think I might be in the genetics camp. I'm a descendant of Hati Hroovitnisson, one of Fenrir's pups. My dad told me I have Irish heritage, explaining why I'm a selkie- and it's likely my lycanthropy/cynanthropy comes from the intersection between those lines, as I have a theory the Werewolves of Ossory (you might know them from Wolfwalkers, but they come from a real werewolf myth) were Pagan Norse-Gaels before the story was Christianized. I relate my cynanthropy in specific to my theriform black GSD sister, who was my dad's dog. My dad was also a psychic vampire in his youth, and while I don't think I have vampiric powers, I do feel a connection to vampires (vampirehearted?) and have a bat kintype. I fully believe that at least some of my kintypes are physical in that they are genetic, likely on my dad's side (though I wouldn't be surprised if my mom also has some critter in her), and I am likely a 'dormant'/non-transforming werebeast, explaining strange sensations I've experienced that aren't quite phantom shifts and my urge to transform.

I'd be interested to hear other physical alterhumans' perspectives and if this makes sense. I still don't know everything about this label, and could only find resources for physical shifts when I looked up the term, so it would be nice to find some proper info on this aside from just others' accounts.

Hello alterhuman community! I need everyones help ;w;

I am currently trying to figure out if i am a physical therian or not but i don't really have a strong enough grasp on what it even means. So if you're a willing physical therian, please share your experience, it would help me out a lot :>

CL***KER IS A SLUR AGAINST THOSE WHO IDENTIFY AS A ROBOT OR TECHNOLOGY IN ANY WAY!!! NONHUMANS & ALTERHUMANS ARE REAL.

( for the purpose of clarification, I will put the uncensored word below )

Clanker.

Honestly I'm fucking sick and tired of hearing this word, whether its aimed at real beings or not. Shouldn't be used regardless. Fucking bullshit. And yes I tagged xenophobia and racism because it fucking is. No, not just because it's used against poc people either. I mean it's literally targeting a nonhuman, aka a different species, aka a different race. Bite me. Disagree and you just get blocked. I'm done trying to explain the fucking obvious to idiots.

Hi! Wolf p-shifter here.

Is it true that your hair color matches your fur when fully shifted? Example: dark hair = dark fur? Light hair = light fur? Thanks!

The answer changes from shifter to shifter, but the answer is primarily Yes.

For me i am a brown(ish) wolf, and i also have brown hair ,, My hair and fur color do not match exactly as my hair is pretty chestnut colored, while my fur is gold-red-brown colored (the image below is pretty much exactly what I look like)

Hey everyone point and laugh at this loser

[autumnishere1107]

I have begun acting on the horrible yet wonderous thoughts... An in-depth essay/article on physical, biological, genetic (and all other bodil) alterhuman experiences. I will try and post updates when working on this! :3

Not that smart of me when all my courses exams are in like 2-3 weeks but the yapping must be done.

Hopefully my English is readable enough khkg/lh

Current progress! (Working on the introduction)
