I am mothmankin. Mothman is such a deep part of me, but i fully believe there are many mothmen. In my mind and memories, mothmen are small in number, likely only 40,000 alive. But we are strong and social. I hold so many beautiful memories and experiences from this life. And i would like to talk about it.

I was Minya, a mothman. I had two loving parents who raised me somewhat traditionally to our culture; parents raising their offspring as a group, called a familyhood, though ours was a bit more gentle than others. Our familyhood was very close, the young and old had their friendgroups, usually interweaving.

I knew my mate from birth. We grew up together, he was the largest of us kids, but also the kindest, most helpful, and (imo) prettiest. Corvak and I had a pretty problemless relationship, though our relationship was pretty non-traditional. We, unlike most mothmen, were nearly mutually exclusive. Most mothmen are completely polyamorous, but we always fell back to each other, not taking other partners for 4+ months at a time.

We never had kids. I died pretty young, like 34 in a human lifetime. We never got around to it before that.

I dont really know what else to talk about. There's so much good and so much bad and i dont know where to begin talking about all of it.

THERIANS AND OTHERKINS ALL OVER THE WORLD!

I'm going to host a THERIAN and OTHERKIN Minecraft server! You will be able to become your theriotypes and play Minecraft with them!

For now, the server is still going under maintenance. I'm adding mods to make sure the majority of therians is included.

I'm also adding some fantastical creatures so that otherkins can join too!

Please share so that when the server is complete, others can play too!

I see a lot of hate toward humanity in the alterhuman community- toward one's own human form, toward the bullies and antis, toward the way that humans have wrecked the natural world- and frankly I don't blame you, but I just want to shout out the alterhumans who love humanity.

Shoutout to the alterhumans who are grateful for the opportunities that only humans have and/or love their human bodies (yay for art, medicine, books, internet, opposable thumbs, and complex speech!!)

Shoutout to the domestic animal therians who feel safe and cared for among humans, the dogs and cats who want to be beloved family pets or trusty service animals.

Shoutout to the alterhumans who exist to protect and guide humans, the angels and deities and spirits who care so deeply for humans that you walk among them.

Shoutout to the fictionkins who still don't feel nonhuman at all because their fictotypes are humans.

Shoutout to the alterhumans who are proud ambassadors of your species, bridging the gap between humanity and nonhumanity.

You are no less valid for loving the species you were born into.

tip for therians/nonhumans/alterhumans: real fur is not inherently harmful!

in fact, real fur is better for the environment because it is biodegradable. faux fur is made of plastic and will never break down. it also releases millions of microplastics during the creation process.

Therianthropy is not new to us but it is new to the general public. Millions of people assumed that everyone identified with having a human body and being human and now that they've discovered that there are people who don't they are having negative reaction to it. Species is seen as something strictly biological and our existence is disrupting that 'fact' And it's difficult to explain what non-human animal hood is or what it feels like because it's a deeply personal feeling that's unique to everyone. The world needs time and I do think we'll get there eventually.

being a therian going into education is crazy. theres a dog teaching your child how to play saxophone

Mark ur calendars!! 🗓️

Therianthropy day 2024 falls on 16. November!!

Edit: Since most ppl aren’t reading the context: It does not fall on the 16th every year. It takes place on the first full moon of November, therefor falling on the 16th this year. Sorry to disappoint anyone who thought it was on their bday every year, it changes. /nm (just informing u)

Context: therianthrophy day is celebrated after the first howl (therian meet) ever done, which was organized to be on the first full moon of November so that’s why it is always celebrated on a varying date!!
