Now that I have your attention, it seems as of late that so called “fictionkins” have been running amock trying to be total asshats by doing shit like reblogging a piece of art of a character and saying;
“That’s me.”
And to you I say. No, it obviously fucking isn’t you because you are not a fucking fictional character. Let alone if that particular fiction character be an ORIGINAL work of an artist, or even characters from TV shows and others. If you were a fictional character, then how the fuck did you manifest in the real world and how sure are you that you are THIS particular fictional character??? Do YOU yourself have the same thought pattern as that particular character??? Did you only realize you were a fucking fictional character when you first saw it on TV or on the internet?
Give me a break.
That also goes for all other kinds of kins out there like, seriously guys? You believe you’re some kind of animal in the wrong species??? Or some kind of historical figure??? Or whatever chalked up shit you got under your sleeves, I doubt any of you people actually PERFORM your respective mannerisms outside Tumblr or your room.
There was a video of some Norwegian chick on Norwegian television saying how she is a cat and acts like a cat indoors. And yet whenever she is outside where people who DO NOT KNOW HER can see her, she is not doing her particular animal mannerisms.
She is walking like a person, she is talking like a person, and she is dressing up like a person. So how are you a cat if you aren’t even acting like one outside your own fucking house?? That would entail to you knowing that the shit you doing WOULD LOOK CRAZY to people from the outside world.
So before trying to reason with me, give me all the proof you got to say you are any of this shit. Until you give me PROVEN evidence to support your case, just don’t. Because ya’ll bullshitting in the end.
Someone show OP the boots metaphor. And get me that otherkin bingo sheet.
I’m too tired to give the full boots metaphor, but basically like you won’t find someone else’s boots comfortable, you won’t understand any evidence given to you as for the existence of otherkin.
Oh, and what that Norwegian girl was doing? Not otherkin, just strange. Otherkin is an identity, not a lifestyle where you have to act as you did in your previous life. Please, do us all a favor and do some research on us before needlessly insulting us. I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt and say that you’re a good, understanding, person, who is okay with being wrong sometimes, here. Please do your best to meet this expectation I have set, so we can go about this like adults.
I got your back on the bingo thing.
There should be spots on here for “has no chill,” “thinks fictionkin and otherkin are the same thing” and “doesn’t know that the plural of kin is kin” …
“Otherkin is not a scientific theory.
It is not a fact that its believers are looking to prove true or false.
It is not an idea that Otherkin are trying to convince you that you have to believe.
Oherkin is a set of beliefs that come into being in response to emotions, intuitions and internal experiences that are personal and unique to each individual Otherkin.
Trying to disprove Otherkin is like trying to disprove that someone else’s boots are comfortable.
Take someone else’s boots and put them on and you say ‘these are uncomfortable, that’s a fact’. And you list all the things that make them uncomfortable. They pinch, they’re the wrong size, the material is worn through in places.
What you don’t see when you’re saying the boots are uncomfortable, is how they’ve stretched to fit their wearer. How the soles take the shape of their toes, how the worn fabric sits right at the bone of their ankle. You don’t see that these boots carried them up a mountain, and through a river, and home again without ever getting their feet wet.
Stop trying to disprove Otherkin. Give me back my boots.”
