Topic: Otherkin

Posted under Off Topic

personally i have to bring this up but i don't like on how furries are going straight to otherkin for their dragon fursona.i will state this that there is 2 kinds of otherkin fakers and real and by that i mean fakers who fake their otherkinism and real people who go in public in a dragon fursuit that's fine by me but don't fake it easily

well i had to say something as it was becoming a big issue that i've seen so many go into otherkin and fake it because it doesn't make a furry or a scalie a better person.also i don't agree with otherkin sites that don't prove their truth but have valid truths about Otherkinism not the fake stuff

You know, the first post in this was so completely off topic in and of itself, that technically nobody's actually derailed it yet.
I think MSDragonFan is Derailedkin.

Hilariously derailing one-liner.

speaking of one-liners, i just thought of something. is there by any chance a furry pic of Ash from the movie, Evil Dead, here somewhere? i never thought to check what might come up for that movie, if anything. i bet it's nightmare fuel whatever it is.

According to my searches, Ashley originated as a man's name, not a woman's name. I suspect it was Americanization that made it "Feminine" to spite the British origins.
That, or my searches gave me false results.

Where does the spelling of Orc as Ork originate from?

Either a translation ("Orc" in German wouldn't be pronounced like that, thus it's "Ork" over here"), or maybe copyright reasons.

Rant on Otherkin

On topic: I find the Otherkin concept to be ridiculous for two reaons. For starters, almost all of the otherkins I came across identify themselves as something that's cool (dragons, demons, wolves, etc.) just to make themselves feel cool. This is similar to fursonas (foxes, wolves, dragons, sergals, etc.) The only difference between the two, Otherkin fully accept who they are in real life.

The other reason, they never truly act what they claim to be. For example, I came across a post where a foxkin went to a zoo and came across a fox exhibit. The foxkin was happy and barking at the foxes, but when the foxkin had to go, he whimpered...that's now how foxes interact in real life. foxes generally view each other as competition and will act hostile towards each other, especially when it comes to territory.

I at first thought this was a trending mental disorder that these otherkin people were having, but over time I began to think that it's just another trend to get attention...then again they're getting unwanted attention.

TL;DR: Furries know their limits while "Otherkin" Take it too far.

You know what they say. "Any publicity is good publicity."

Someone mind giving an explanation onto what Otherkin is? As far as I gathered, it's a Fursona (why is that in my Auto-Correct, I never use that word...), but I don't want to go off and assume similarities.

Not quite, while a furry may in some cases like to think they identify as or strongly associate with a non-human, when asked if they believe they are really what they talk about most just go "nah, I just like to imagine and have fun".

Otherkin on the other hand are people who often literally identify as non-human, be it a real animal or fantasy being. Some are sort of sane in the same sense furries are sane, while other take it one step too far and try to make other people validate their claim of being an otherkin and hence should be treated differently and weird biological things about them that cannot be proved by anyone should be respected. Some otherkin also like to imagine that they have phantom limbs i.e. an otherkin with wings or tails may imagine that people automatically sway out of their way as to not to walk into their wings and that children and real non-humans can actually see them for what they imagine they are. They may also believe in multiverses and that their life is linked to another being in another universe, in order to explain their beliefs. etc.

In some cases otherkin is even considered a semi-religion, while furry is mainly just considered a hobby/fun. I'm usually quite respectful about other people's quirky beliefs but some of the otherkin beliefs are not quite sane.
