I understand that some physical nonhumans experience quite literally having fur or paws whether it's delusions or otherwise right? I don't fit into this category, as I am unfortunately aware and begrudgingly accepting of the body I inhabit.

However, I do feel that "I am a dog in every sense except physical" doesn't apply to me either. Similarly to my being trans, I don't see myself as a boy in a female body. I have a male body because I am male. So it doesn't feel right to say I physically identify as human, because I don't think I should have to call myself human in any sense, really.

for example, in my case my body is the one of a watcher. when I was a born, my wings were hidden under my skin and my back was sewn up, trapping the wings beneath its surface. however, I can still feel my wings under my back, and they sometimes come out. my form also physically transforms between a winged creature to an owl sometimes.

my feet are bird-like talons, but to humans they look human. my body is nonhuman but because watchers are shapeshifters, I can mimic a human body. but, in practice, my body is still the one of a watcher.

the question you should be asking is, how does your body feel to you? does it feel human? does it feel animal? how does it look, regardless of how it may look to others? what do you see when you look at yourself in the mirror? does your body transform? does it feel better to act certain ways, to put certain accessories on? how do you feel about gear? does things like ears and tails feel wrong because you feel like your body already has those attributes? (for example, for me, putting on backpacks or false wings feel immensely dysphoric because I feel like my wings are trapped and don't have room to spread)

that being said, there is nothing wrong with not being physically nonhuman. if you don’t want to call yourself human…….. you don’t have to. you don’t have to mention your physicality at all. if you don’t want to say “i am a dog in every sense except physical,” then… don’t say that. just say “i’m a dog”. you don’t owe anyone elaboration.

Malewolfgender and Femalewolfgender

Malewolfgender

Malewolfgender (male-wolf-gender) - a gender that relates to male wolves or being a male wolf. It can be a gender that is influenced, caused by, or affected by alterhumanity and/or nonhumanity. So, this can (not required) be used by those who identify as or with wolves or male wolves specifically. This gender is intended to be masculine, but doesn't have to be.

It is called malewolfgender as it aligns with male wolves and non-human masculinity. Which is why it is called “male” and not “man” or “boy”.

Femalewolfgender

Femalewolfgender (female-wolf-gender) - a gender that relates to female wolves or being a female wolf. It can be a gender that is influenced, caused by, or affected by alterhumanity and/or nonhumanity. So, this can (not required) be used by those who identify as or with wolves or female wolves specifically. This gender is intended to be feminine, but doesn't have to be.

It is called femalewolfgender as it aligns with male wolves and non-human femininity. Which is why it is called “female” and not “woman” or “girl”.

I’ve received so many responses already for my first survey and I want to thank everyone who has taken it and people who have provided feedback for it.

The second survey is out and this time it is EXPLICITLY for alterhumans, and it is more what others are looking for. The previous survey was for everyone, but this one is more extensive and provides chances for the respondent to elaborate.
