Oooh I thought this was just something that the preteens in the community started as an excuse to feel special (like on Instagram there's "therian pride friday" and there's been numerous attempts at making therian pride days throughout the year). I didn't realize that this one actually had history!
I'm attending a pseudo-convention thing today so I guess that'll be my celebration
Today is the first full moon of November, 2017. The first full moon of November has been a sort of de facto "Therianthropy Day" since the mid 1990s. It was when, 23 years ago, on the weekend of November 19 & 20, 1994, the first official AHWW howl was held.
I was unable to attend it, although I did make the two that followed. I was a broke college student and had no transportation at the time. It was fun reading the post-howl reports on the newsgroup, though.
I always felt it was a good time to have an official celebration of therianthropy, since the AHWW newsgroup itself was created in November, 1992. Very momentous for therians, November is.
It was first proposed as a sort of holiday in March of 1996, in this thread on AHWW, should you want to investigate the history. Ultimately, AHWW decided to use it, and it stuck. It went through a few iterations of names, "International Werewolf Day", and then the less species-specific "Awereness Day" (since were is the older term for therian), and after the term therianthropy caught on, "Therianthropy Day".
So, happy "Therianthropy Day". Hope it's a good one.
therian hunters? I say nope. I guess it's just the same that would bully a furry, for the same reason, and probably don't get the difference to begin with. But if they were real...
Lycan, wanna bet on who catches the most between the two of us?
You might be stalked/chased because you are a teen-aged girl and there are weirdos, and pedophiles who stalk young girls. I do not think people are getting stalked because they are Therian. Even if people wear collars and such, that might be more stand-outish. But I would view most of those (from an outsider viewpoint) as being Goth, teen-wolves. Not people who identify within as a non-human animal.
Most of the things discussed in the video are just common sense things. If you wear a tail, collar that sort of thing, you WILL stand out.
Granted I've only been awakened for over a year, and in the community as long. I've never encountered "hunters of therians". I have encountered bullies, people with small minded views, misguided thoughts on what I am. But "hunters"? No.

I totally just imagined a giant, cybernetic demon wolf just charging down the streets of Florida at all my evil, evil little adversaries- before getting distracted by something cute, like a kitten or something. XD
It was a very, very entertaining thought. Though to be more serious, I doubt any of us deny that you're probably the most awesome, protective therian here and we all know you'd stand up for us if we were bullied. You rock like that.

Now me on the other hand...I'd totally verbally assault someone for you guys. I don't have the muscle to back up the mouth though, so who wants to be my right and left hand?
