"ZOMG I AM TEH FOXXOR XD"
[info]tehlame posts to WTF Inc with the following:

Wanting to come out gay to your parents is normal.
Coming out to tell them they're dragons inside is not!


This starts a feast of OMFG FURRIES/OTHERKIN R WIERD with a side of Otherkin make us look bad! When [info]shoiryu expresses a similar sentiment, [info]dirtynumbangel asks The rest of them? So you're a deluded 'otherkin' too?

Wank ensues.

Hmm, I think I've seen [info]dirtynumbangel wanking away elsewhere about how FANFIC IS SATAN. Great record, he's got.

dirtynumbangel was recently banned from metaquotes - was that wanked here? i'm sure it was...

*snort* Someone with a list of interests like dirtynumbangel's shouldn't be throwing stones. I'm pretty sure that just being gay and into bondage, sadomasochism, humiliation, and edgeplay would be enough to get him labeled delusional, deranged, and in need of counseling in some places even today. 50 years ago it probably could have gotten him committed.

You know, I was looking at his icon of the bondage collars, and all I could think was "Okay, dragons aren't real, but you're doing the same thing that 'normal' people do to BDSMers."

Wow. Just wow.

Aside from the wank, just addressing your comment:

Okay, yes, but..those things exist. Being into BDSM and believing that you're a dragon or other such creature that has never been proven to exist? Not quite the same.

One is a fetish/preference/however you prefer to say it.

The other is equivalent to my 4'2" tall self saying "I'm really 6' tall!" and believing it.

I'm very tempted to point out that believing that you are correct with that much bull-headed blindness to the other side is about as delusional as the otherkin or whatever.

....Would also point out that by his definition Jesus was a lunatic in need of meds, since he believed he WAS the son of God, and if we follow that line of thought, Christians are just as crazy for following him. But hey, Christianity is mainstream belief, so that's okay!

But...must not touch the wank. Must be good.

I am deeply flattered that I made the subject line of this post. Eeee!

As a mod who was present while this was beginning, I could have just killed the wank before it started, but that would have been lame. And would have robbed us of teh_funy.

Believing you have abstract, non-physical adjectives at the core of your being is fine.

Believing you 'are' a hobby or job, even stated in exactly that phrasing and despite absolutely no DNA evidence, is entirely understood and accepted and requires no explanation.

Believing you're the wrong sex or some sort of in-between gender is just peachy.

Believing your identity is based entirely on your ancestry and genetics with no nurture or thought involved is not everyone's bag, but still okay.

Thinking you might have a different species as a mental trait in addition to human parts, now, is OMGdelusional. Because we must draw the line somewhere, so let's do it at random!

Whine, bitch, whine.

Ah, I recognize him (DNAB) from the newbie wave at Metafilter. My online life just formed yet another ouroboros. whee.

I don't understand the whole otherkin gig at all, but that kneejerk "You all need medication" thing is uncreative and uninteresting, not to mention poorly explained. I'd rather people on both sides explained themselves, dammit, or else we just have a bunch of yelling, and that's not interesting at all.

So why is there such a fuss going on over it?

Dragons don't exist. Or something. Okay! (really - duh?)

I've always taken it to mean that Otherkin have found traits within themselves that are typically ascribed to certain mythical creatures - dragons, unicorns, mermaids, phoenixes, etc, etc. This *actually* isn't all that uncommon - I've seen an entire book on the subject. They just don't *call* it Otherkin. (the book was actually about 'What mythical creature are you most like?' but it *was* the same deal - I came out as either a unicorn *or* a mermaid, surprisingly enough)

Another good example of this stuff is the tattoo I have behind my right ear. It's the kanji for 'Phoenix'. When people ask me why I have it, I tell them that 'it's my animal'. No one has ever called me crazy or asked me if I missed my dose or whatever.

I mean, Gods, really. This stuff isn't new, people!

I fail to see how the otherkin thing is somehow more delusional and illogical than anybody else's spiritual beliefs. There is completely insane non-rational stuff in every religion and set of beliefs. Hell and heaven and souls and magic and gods aren't any more or less real or sane than dragons, darlings.
