dude, he/him n he/himb, trans man, late 30s, headmate in a system (he/himb is pronounced just like he him, its like the silent b in bomb but the set goes he/himb/his/his/himbself)
werewolf...kin? therian? dont quite jive with those labels, but im somethin like that. i do like and use the terms transspecies, alterhuman, and lycanthrope 2 describe my experience
im not new 2 the otherkin community but me being a werewolf is tangentially related 2 that at best 4 me personally (and while ive had many run ins with psychosis, its not clinical lycanthropy either)
im makin this blog 4 myself and also 2 accompany a friend of mine who has a somewhat similar experience 2 me
i will post abt my experience 4 the most part, which may include some tmi stuff and even some things my dear friend-oh-pal wont relate 2, but i figure whats the harm it also pointed out 2 me that many posters in the werewolfkin and similar tags/spaces are just wolves who relate 2 their humanity still n consider the duality as being a werewolf or werewolves whose wolf forms are similar/comparable 2 that of traditional earthen wolves (whether that be in instincts or appearance). both of these are obviously valid, but seemingly take up all of the space allotted 4... any other kind of werewolf out there, like ones me n my friend could actually potentially relate 2. so were bein the change we wanna see in this world
despite this id not being 'kin, ill use werewolf kin tags on my posts bc there could be someone more like us out there who is kin or looking in the kin tags that needs 2 see this variety in the experience
im not a wolf. im a human that should be able 2 transform into a wolfman. not a wolf. a werewolf. a wolfman. i would be bipedal and human like in shape, but larger than any human or wolf, with wolf features and fur n etc. (think skyrim werewolves and then about double the size). in theory i would be able 2 go on all fours, but that is an ability. its important 2 emphasize that i would be bipedal as a default bein a werewolf affects my mannerisms, ability 2 think straight, n my overall daily life, especially with the phases of the moon itself or other special phenomena (like certain weather conditions, placement/movement of the planets and stars, extreme emotion, etc) and like any human condition/affliction, sometimes at random
i do actually happen 2 be a dog as well (this identity IS 'kin) so the overlap in doggy n werewolf arent as big of a deal 2 me, and caused me 2 not really notice the lack of human-turns-2-wolfman werewolf content on this site before. but like stated earlier, i wanna contribute 2 changin that a lil bit
DO NOT CALL ME PUPPY. its uncomfy 4 me n i hate it. im a grown man. other cutesy names including variations on the word puppy (besides oupy/uppy) like "duppy" or "buppy"/"bupper" are ok but i would really prefer anything else if ur gonna use cutesy words on me (try "doggy"/"goggy" or "wolp" or something idk)
also this isnt suuuuper very important at all but, while im not taken per se, im not lookin 4 anyone rn. so sorry if ur a werewolf fucker or whatever but i will not rlly lean into that 4 anyone. i also am not interested in usin words like "mate" or "pack" bc thats more of a regular wolf thing imo and ime
