Hey guys,

I'm giving this old thread a bump. Recently people have been talking about therian hunters again and I just wanted to give you all a gentle reminder that, no, they are not real.

If you wear a tail or collar you are generally likely to get bullied by your peers who will see it as a sign of not fitting in. This is simply the way teenagers behave and has nothing to do with you being a therian.

If you're worried about it, don't wear a tail or collar in public. Problem solved.

This gets complicated fast with physics, but seems interesting!

I mainly believe in alternate realities, even had dreams where I saw different ones. But for someone to be their therioside/kintype in a universe? Possibly, I mean anything is possible within the multiverse.

But yeah, I like that idea.

I believe in different dimensions and planes of existence, and I also believe in areas in which these planes intersect (which is a fairly popular theory).

I personally do not believe in complete parallel universes or having 'two' biological copies of you in different places at once running in full capacity. Soul bonding and soul sharding is one thing, but 'alternate timeline' theories never made any good sense to me in any aspect. This is just my opinion.

the multiverse thing really makes sense! i love the idea of it as well :3

I am wrapping up and old issue that remained open on these forums. If there are people in the audience who believe p-shifting is possible and have visited this thread because they wish to see if anyone here has figured out how to unlock the secret on how to physically transform into an animal: Welcome! This thread is here for you!

As coffee so eloquently put it in this post, but perhaps lacking the due emphasis:

IF SOMEONE HAS TOLD YOU THAT YOU CAN PHYSICALLY TRANSFORM YOU HAVE BEEN DECEIVED.

People say those sorts of things out of a desire to feel special, better than other people and in order to control and manipulate people like you.

If you opt not to take our word for it, sure. What you believe is ultimately up to you. However given the amount of drama discussing this subject always entails, discussing p-shifting is no longer allowed on this forum.

I am therefore sealing off this thread as the last on this particular topic and adding the rule. This thread remains, as said, in the hopes that it may help bring those few who have been deceived, back into the real world.

imma give my useless opinion on this here, cause ive just found out what it is and my thoughts on it are:
i feel as if...honestly...even if you COULD....you shouldnt really mess with p shifting because, honestly, imagine the mental AND PHYSICAL toll it could take on you..
Plus,spiritual wise? everyone believes in different things spiritual wise,and are different believing cultural and religious wise...
WOULD you really WANT to find out The spiritual repreccussions of this?
but i guess it would be interest spiritual wise too.

this is also how I would explain my theriotype, I don't know if you saw the movie "everything, everywhere, all at once" but I think you would really like it !

this is also the reason why I don't have a set depiction of my dragon self and it changes over time at key moments of my life, as if to match the reality I'm creating with my decisions. Maybe each time my dragon appearance changes, it's because I am in connection with a slighty different version of the dragon, like I'm in sync with myself and depending on which path I take it self actualize my theriotype, I don't know how to explain but because it's shifting between the different realities where i am a dragon, I call this "species" a shifter dragon for that reason.

and lord is it difficult to explain in English coming From French orz

In my opinion, therian names are fine as long as you understand that you are your theriotype. I do have a therian name, that name being Evergreen, and I do have a reason for said name:

Basically, I believe that in this life, my soul is part human and part lion. I also like to think that your name is a part of your soul, because it's a part of your identity and who you are. But, I have two parts to my soul. My human side of the soul has a human name, but since I also have a lion side to my soul, when I name that something different it's still MY name. For me personally, it would feel strange for both sides of my soul to have the same name.

There are also spiritual/symbolic reasons for it but that's kind of hard to put into words and it's also pretty personal.

But, I can definitely see where you are coming from, and it could certainly cause confusion for newer therians and make them think that your theriotype is a different entity.

At least in my experience, your therian name is also your name, and only when one does not go by their therian name, it generally may stray from the definition of therianthropy.

(Sorry if this is badly written, I just woke up )

In my opinion, naming your theriotype is just fine. Here’s why:

It is an animal soul in a human body. The human body has a human name, the animal soul may have an animal name- but doesn’t have to.

Just my opinion, you guys points of view make a lot of sense as well!

I think that there are 2 causes of therianthropy with cause like trauma and adaptations due to environmental factors in childhood (e.g being raised around animals) but then stuff like past lives on the other hand. I belive in a mixture of both myself and that people with or without past lives can be therians.
