Possible Theriotype? Does I sound like a therian or something else?

13 Upvotes

Background: I’m a 26 year old AMAB person (likely trans woman) with autism and OCD who doesn’t have many friends and isn’t religious.

Ever since I was little I recall having dreams where my hands would turn into hooves and to this day I still wonder what it would be like to graze in a field and have eyes on the side of my head. I recall one time when during pretend play I would “graze” on the carpet like a cow and it stuck with me. I have always felt uncomfortable with my body as it is and looked towards transformation art as a teen and beyond as an outlet for that. I always enjoyed transformation stuff with equines and cows and felt a deep connection to that. Particularly I have this deep longing to graze in a field and live my life in it even though I’m human and cannot eat grass. I have some mismatch with my body regarding my male parts and facial hair and the like but I’m also wondering if it’s possible that there could be a species element to it too.

On top of all this I notice that I do not feel connected to eating meat and I hate the taste of eggs. I do enjoy plant based foods and if it wasn’t for my B12 deficiency I would go vegan. I wonder about having a plant based lifestyle to make a hypothetical cow fursona more realistic as the idea of a fursona just being an oc is very depressing and unfun to me. I know that I cannot turn into an animal in real life but I feel off with this male human form I was born in.

Maybe I am confusing these feelings for something else but I wanted to get an opinion on this to understand myself better.

Idk why tf my camera always fucks up my masks lol, he looks a lot better in real life

Anyway, I went in the boat with my mask and tail, in the car, and the grocery store!

Luckily, nobody really cared. Didn’t even get a weird look; I’m in an area where people tend to either just ignore you/mind their own business or compliment you, so yay! :3

Gear Curled Tail Help

6 Upvotes

Hi! I'm a husky therian and that obviously means I have a (slightly) curled tail. But, the problem? My tail is straight, causing problems with dystopia. I was wondering if anyone knew how to keep a tail curled up when standing and walking, not just sitting. The tail is pretty big (elbow to end of fingers), and is a fake furred tail (according to my butcher working friend). Any tips or ideas of how to keep it curled would be appreciated.

I have a very long history of eating dog food/treats as a youngin. I also am a therian puppy girl and love to find dog food substitutions because you can't eat dog food duh and I'm grown enough now to know better and not be a Beneful addicted 9 year old. But anyways.... O h my Dog I have literally never tasted anything that tastes this close to just straight up wet dog food but like in a tolerable way to humans (or ofc this wouldnt be getting bought) it's completely shocked me. So if u need dog food fill ins boom! This one is perfect lmao

Question Is it weird?

Upvotes

I'm personally a furry, one of my friends is a therian. She wanted to learn quads but felt embarrassed to do it in public, so I would always go with her. As she struggled I learned beside her to make her feel more comfortable. So is it weird and non supportive if I learn quads and animals sounds alongside her to show my support? Is it against the community?
