Therian in the sense that being human doesn't feel like it's enough but I don't want to be an animal-animal, I want to be a person-animal, I want to scurry and run between two worlds & shred those lines with my claws and chew apart those boxes as they're erected somewhere between wild & habituated - ThreadSky

I think you've nailed what therianthropy is. It's not just species dysphoria and misanthropy. It's the combination of both human and animal. *wags*

feybeasts.bsky.social•43 days ago

Yeah, that's what I've always felt- I don't want to be human, I don't want to be a wild animal, I want to be ME.

remmyzilla.bsky.social•43 days ago

That's EXACTLY it!!!!!!

feybeasts.bsky.social•43 days ago

Knowing what you are, seeing it reflected in those other things, but they're never quite... right. Feeling that yearning with all your heart to find out what it means to be YOU for yourself... god, I feel you

astraeathedragon.bsky.social•42 days ago

This is it exactly. It's about wanting to be yourself, freed from the limitations of your human body.

That's why the wings are the biggest point of yearning for me. Because they're the biggest point of *freedom*.

automatictiger.bsky.social•43 days ago

YEAH, like… paws and claws and fur would be great, I already instinctively make cat vocalizations, but I also want to play doom and make chocolate chip cookies and use blender to make fun worlds for my friends to visit.

"What a daring dream, to combine the finest qualities of humanity with the elegance and nobility of the animal kingdom. How you wish you could know their world."

dilmir.bsky.social•43 days ago

Totally vibe with this feeling, I think that's why taurs give me the hard therian-ish thoughts, sitting on the almost literal line between a civilised person and a wild beast. Plus they're just neat!

threetails.bsky.social•43 days ago

YES! Give me sharp teeth and claws to shred the illusions of human chauvinism!

elizabeth-lb.bsky.social•42 days ago

This is what furry's all about!

remmyzilla.bsky.social•43 days ago

Animal enough to perk up when you hit that training clicker, person enough to saunter over and snap that annoying little fucking thing in my padded fist, undo my collar, and cinch it tight around you instead. Heel, babe. Coyotes don't get trained, we find ways to be entertained.

Bingo

deepseasable.bsky.social•42 days ago

YES HOLY SHIT THAT'S IT THESE ARE THE WORDS I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR TO DESCRIBE THE ME

You can’t eat me until after I get hit by a car

baus-of-the-bacon.bsky.social•42 days ago

ive been waiting for someone or something to truly explain/encompass my relationship with therianthropy and you have done just that, thank you so much

lorenziniforce.bsky.social•43 days ago

I get this deeply, I'm kinda similar vibes myself. It feels right to me especially since my kintype is a fantastical beast typically depicted as intelligent and capable of speech yet also a fierce, brutal hunter...

lorenziniforce.bsky.social•43 days ago

Dragons kinda are this vibe in many depictions, it feels right to me. Fierce beast hunting on the wing and wise creature parlaying with travelers... feels Right

luxxenlunae.bsky.social•43 days ago

Immensely vibe with this. I am a Dragon, who Hunts in the Wilds, a Sovereign of the Skies. My cavernous lair in the wilderness is filled with scrolls and books and paintbrushes and dragon sized beanbag chairs and pots and pans designed to be held with my wing-claws. I offer travellers tea sometimes.

dusktheumbreon.pmd.social•41 days ago

Very much the same.

I'm an anthropomorphic umbreon because that's *me*. I'm not just an umbreon, but I'm certainly not a human. I'm an umbreon with the parts of humanity I *like*

mewmus.bsky.social•43 days ago

This is why the werewolf is so important to me

I'm both person and creature, it's both at the same time and that's important

remmyzilla.bsky.social•43 days ago

I need to feel BOTH!!!!

indigo-icetalons.bsky.social•43 days ago

Gosh right?!?

I wanna be CREATURE

But still have like, opposable thumbs.

craneketchup.bsky.social•38 days ago

Real

dragonwarrior125.bsky.social•42 days ago

The kind of vibe i found apt for myself is still having the "me" that is my human intelligence and personality, but just, being a dragon wolf thing that has hands and can flip you off.
