Warning. Personal opinion ahead.

I've seen Ashpaw's videos before, and I'm sure she's a good person- but I find a lot of her information to be a bit...elitist. As in, what she knows is all that matters and she is what she is and that's all she cares about. Because of this she doesn't always provide the most direct and accepted information, and instead spotlights things that are also misguided, or completely torn out from the fluffy community.

I'm not sure if this is for views, fans, or what - but she takes "being herself" to a whole new level that doesn't even have to do with Therianthropy. I've seen her in youtube comments encouraging people who say they can Physically Shift (I've only seen a comment like that once, maybe twice but the seccond was indirect,) so...with all that said, she's an amusing Fluffy in my eyes.

Why is she amusing?

Because she's so believable to the public.
Actually believable, not the ones who purposefully get down on all fours and hiss so you know they're faking. Ashpaw is one of those that actually play it smart (Whether conscious or subconscious,) so that if you don't know what Therianthropy is - or if you're new to it, then you'll be confused very fast and not want to open your mind to the facts. Well played, Ashpaw, well played.

I just watched the video and it sounds like she just gave people who bully Therians for being Therian, a fancy name. Which wouldn't help the situation to start calling them that anyway. She just glorified the whole idea of attacking a specific group of individuals.

She sounds like a "know-it-all." Type of person. I'm going to watch some other videos of hers now.

I now follow her Instagram for my daily laugh. If anyone has an Instagram, I'm on there too. Same name there and here.

She's one of those people who makes her life about Therianthropy, apparently has lots of shifts every day, loves tails, goes on outings with her pack, etc etc. I know her account is a Therianthropy-centric one, but still it seems like pretty much everything in her life has to do with Therianthropy.

Not surprised at all tbh

I'm sure she's a decent person, but part of me hopes she'll grow out of most of this one day.

If you're open and public about being a Therian, you are always going to receive ridicule and sometimes harassment. Maybe they just came up with a fancy term to call people who bully others for being Therian.

This is the kind of person she is.

I actually pronounce it that way myself, lol.

-She's pronouncing therian like every fluffy 13 year old on youtube, so that's an automatic "do not take seriously".

-If her and her friends are being bullied/stalked, they should be reporting that to the police, not warping it to mean therian hunter and posting about it on Youtube. I highly doubt that she is telling the truth.

-Oh my god I want that duck it is so cute why does she have a duck

Okay I actually skiped to some parts instead of watching the entire thing. BUT...

A-She does pronounce therian weirdly.

B-I agree.

And C-I love that duck!

anything a therian youtuber says about therianthropy should be taken with several grains of salt. there are a bunch of them who call therianthropy "therianism" and generally misuse terms and such and present it as reliable education.

adrian is pretty cool but she just talks about what she thinks she knows, which is okay, but she is also guilty of misinforming people.

Yep, that's the exact one, Thair.
