I have a genuine question that you and others may take offense to but do you think being therian is a disorder called BIID?

BIID specifically has to do with the desire to be paralyzed and/or an amputee, so no. It’s unrelated.This is a pretty good research paper done on BIID, if anyone wants to check it out btw: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3326051/I also apologize for the super late response. I haven’t checked my inbox in a very long time.

The worst things have to be that my human body has all of these back problems that I never had as a dragon or a microraptor, my lack of a muzzle, and the lack of wings to stop me from falling (I'm terrified of stairs because my instincts immediately want me to fly/glide down).

What dysphoria do you have?

For me my hands are the worst. Fingers feel so wrong and some days I can’t stand to look at them. Then it’s my face. The lack of a muzzle its so disconcerting that I’be been known to turn the mirrors around.

Shit, this post should be called ‘reasons I’m getting a therapist when I leave home.

I'm dragonkin and I know what I looked like, but I also might be dragonhearted like you! Also, you look cool as heck!

Dragonhearted~

I’m not dragonkin, just -hearted, but I feel like a dragon anytime I’m around fire. Especially if I’m tasked with keeping it lit. The fire feels alive to me and it’s like taking care of a child, haha! So here, have dragon-me taking care of a nest–a pile of rocks to hold in heat, lit on fire with scorching breath, and maintained by a loving and well-camouflaged wyvern. :P

Anyway I don't think I ever ATE my gemstones but I think I chewed on them?? Probably helped polish them and it's like how I constantly chew on stuff even as a human. Also some pennies literally make my mouth water??

I also definitely hoarded rocks and still do to this day (i still find old clothes with pockets full of rocks sometimes)

Am I the only dragon, who didn’t eat stones and metals but only hoarded them? There’s this thing I very often (almost always) see about dragons eating stones, and I kinda see where it comes from, but I’m strating to feel alone ^^”

I used to eat loads of meat (but not fish) ,and berries and other fruit. Also I always carried some salt boulders in my backpack because I love salt very much.

I want to fly and run on all fours so badly. Whenever I run, I pretend that I run on all fours, whenever the wind blows or I’m sitting in a moving vehicle or listening to a dynamic song, I pretend that I’m flying. Whenever I’m listening to angry songs or songs that’s focus is on the lyrics, I pretend that I’m shouting as a dragon and use raw animalistic expressions and I love every single one of these moments so much.

Hi! I saw you're a microraptor therian, just thought I'd say hello because I'm a zhenyuanlong and it's pretty hard to find other active dinokin on here! It's nice to see I'm not completely alone though :v

Hi! I get how hard it is to find other dinos and how frustrating it isIf you'd like to talk, feel free to do that!

[silverssupersecretspace]

I like this idea a lot. Would it also apply to things like dragonkind (dragonkin is a D&D race too so that's confusing sometimes), caninekind, ect.?

I think I’m going to begin doing what @hallowedbone has been doing, using “otherkind” and “fictionkind” instead of otherkin and fictionkin.

The definitions of the latter terms have been distorted and warped to such a degree that it’s almost as if they no longer belong to us.

Therians Wearing Stuff

There are so many more important aspects of being a therianthrope than targeting someone for the things they wear. Do you enjoy wearing tails and ears to match your theriotype? Do you feel that wearing tails and ears is uncomfortable or foolish? Do you wear ears and tails for reasons other than therianthropy? Guess what? It’s all okay! It’s not the end of the world if you see someone with a tail just as much as it’s not the end of the world if you see someone without one. It is not a sign of being juvenile or misunderstanding therianthropy. Those characteristics can only be determined by the actual knowledge and behaviour of the individual. Learn about a person before you decide that their clothing choices deem them unworthy of your time.

I have confusing feelings over dragonkin who say they’re “Asian dragons”. 

Obviously, you can’t pick your kin/theriotype same as you can’t pick a fictotype. If you remember being a dragon the likes depicted in east Asian lore, I’ll believe you. But if you don’t know even the basics of what those are, like the difference between a Korean dragon and a Japanese one, I’m gonna wonder if you’re being genuine or just attracted to the ~mystical Asian~ aesthetic.

We are very, very tied to our people, in ways that western dragons aren’t. Just keep it in mind, is all.
