I am a timber wolf and am pretty chill and friendly. I often mix being with groups and taking time alone. I have a good combination. The only time I become aggressive is when I either get scared, feel threatened, or feel the need to defend myself or others. I'm not usually ever outright aggressive or mean. I suppose that is a very common misconception about wolves and wolf therians.

I'm a wolf, I'm usually laid back and I'm very co-dependant and often get depressive in a lone environment. but I made my assertation mostly from phantom shifts and the vocal urges I have as well as a few other factors

No idea what anyone else has written yet so I may edit this to add anything else I'd like to say, but as a wolf therian this was actually very validating. I'm timid, anxious, dramatic and I'm a little bit of a follower, and for these reasons I can really relate to wolves. Obviously there's a lot more about me that makes me identify as a wolf, but it is nice to see people actually talking about TRUE wolf behaviours!

On not exactly a countering note but still a turn in the other direction, I would like to point out though that some therians identify as certain animals because of imprinting on how the media specifically portrays them. Valid therianthropes can find their true identities based off of cultural or media portrayals of the animals. :3
I would say my identities are probably a mix of both true animal behaviours and some media portrayals as well, due to simple environmental imprinting. Though, I have to say, for my wolf side my identity is very true to wolves' natural behaviours.

I only get aggressive when I'm threatened/feel unsafe/forced to do something against my will. Before I got my current job, there was talk of starting in a psychiatric facility for people with multiple conditions. This was the only time I can think of where I actually felt threatened enough to allow hitting someone in the face, which was wrong of course if I think back to it. I was so scared of starting there, it triggered an aggressive outlet. They said afterwards that I'm an aggressive character and wasn't allowed in anymore, which is so wrong (I'm not aggressive at all, generally speaking...) but understandable from their point of view. Ever since, I'm afraid of being cornered like that again and taking myself to drastic measures, physical aggression in this instance. This incident has left its stains unfortunately, I can't unthink what happened there and am always on my toes for such an occurrence to happen again. In other words, I'm terrified of letting it out again like that if threatened. I'm embarrassed because of it knowing well enough it's wrong to act on said impulse.

i personally love microlabels! i love seeing people coining and using hyper specific labels to best explain how they feel! we use lots of microlabels because of out autism and OCD and we get super excited when we find a new label that fits us!

ALL HAIL THE GREAT FEATHERED ONE PEEKO

Haven't read what others have said yet, so hopefully I'm not just repeating what someone else has already spoken about, but;

In my opinion microlabels are more harmful than they are good.

With my expirience, most microlabels are simply created for one individual to put their expiriences into words perfectly, for either ease of use or to find others with alike expiriences.
In the end, they are very constricting and have a lot of gatekeeping surrounding them due to how specific they are.

Finding your identity is hard enough, and trying to find the perfect box to fit yourself into is next to impossible. I've had this happen to me before and it gave me such stress and anxiety, and the feeling of not belonging and constant instability in how I felt.

I have found myself being happiest by using vague and broad labels. These labels leave room for change and flexibility in my identity but still describe my main experience. Instead of being omnisexual/a lesbian I now most often go by sapphic, instead of being a suntherian I go by just therian, etc. Identity changes, so why restrict ourselves by microlabels?
If someone's confused by your identity because your label is too vague, just explain your expirience! On top of that, your own explanation could let the other person know way more about you than a one word label can.

In the end, I will support and respect all labels, vague or not. I know that feeling of wanting to fit perfectly into a label, I'm a perfectionist, I get it. But sometimes giving up on that is best for your mental health.
(But anyways, label yourself however you wish! This was my experience and my opinion, take it or leave it. I'll refer to you however you'd like! :3)

I am in a country where it is not convenient to access the English Internet. So when therian spread to China, four-legged crawling and masks became the focus.Although many popular science workers have emerged in the follow-up to correct children's ideas, it is most important to self-identify with their animal type.But it is an inevitable trend for equipment to become the mainstream.Do I want to be similar on Tik Tok?
