Hi, we're plural and alterbeing/exist as nonhuman.

So I was wondering if others here were that too or mostly otherkin.

I, personally am a faerie and would totally transition if I could, I have been considering some medical things but for the rest I use technology.

Therefore I consider myself transspecies, I hope that is an accepted term here as I don't think it's dangerous/bad but I have run into many who have disliked me for using it or the term itself.

Hi!

I think it's valid, I would love to be able to do that myself, but I am content with my human body for however long it takes to get there (except the part where it's slowly deteriorating over time)

Other than that, VR is pretty nice

Thank you for saying so.

Glad you are content with your human body. I... tolerate it, but I really don't like being called human or anything related to it as I get dysphoria from it. Definitely agree with you about the not liking bodies deteriorating bit.

Ah, I used a friend's VR once and it was okay, but I don't really have the funds to purchase anything like that atm.

I kinda recently came to the conclusion that I'm Therian. I'm still a bit unsure if that term is syonymous with Otherkin or not, but it's at least adjacent.

As cool as it would be to be a fox, I don't think I'd wanna give up my current lifestyle for it. So like, if I could be an anthro fox, absolutely! But, I'm not sweating too much about it. I'm (mostly) at peace with my human body.

Would be cool for CRISPR or something to allow for that. Imagine being able to become your sona.
