Stoolkin!

You: I’m a pump

Them:You’re a pump kin?

*3 seconds later*

• I feel that I am in some way non-human, or not of this world.

• I will like you no more and no less if you are kin, although if you are I may well appreciate the chance to talk about it with you.

• I may or may not be trans or non-binary, but I support these groups.

• I may or may not fall under the umbrella of minority sexualities, but I support them.

• I understand that simply being otherkin does not make me a part of any of those groups.

• I have not joined a religion or cult by saying I am otherkin, as otherkin are neither of those.

• Being kin is not synonymous with mental illness, nor am I faking one by saying I am otherkin.

• I have many interests aside from being otherkin.

• I may or may not feel comfortable discussing my identification as otherkin with you. It is a very personal thing, and I have the right to say I do not wish to talk to it about you.

• I may or may not be fond of the being I am kin with.

• I am otherkin.

• I am not ashamed.

My otherkin identity is not a PHASE either. I AM OTHERKIN, OTHERKIN IS ME.
