WHAT IS CUASHIPPING?
Cuashipping (kjuΛΚΛΚΙͺpΙͺΕ / KYEW-uh-shipping) is the act of shipping anything that involves Consenting Unrelated Adults. Those are the only elements required for a ship to be a cuaship, no matter the dynamic. If these ships are your preferred kind, you are a cuashipper.
DO YOU HAVE AN EMOJI COMBO?
As a matter of fact... π©Έπ and ππ both represent cuashipping.
WHY DID YOU COIN CUASHIPPING?
Because I enjoy certain unhealthy relationship dynamics in fiction, and I am anti-harassment, but felt that the terms proship and comship tied me too closely to topics that I don't like/don't identify with.
(Side note: Cuaships are not inherently unhealthy, but they can be! That's the magic of cuashipping...)
ARE YOU PROSHIP?
If minding my business and liking ships where people beat each other up and then make out is proship, I guess so.
ARE YOU ANTISHIP?
If heavily disliking noncon, incest, and pedo ships is antiship, I guess so.
CAN I USE THE TERM/FLAG?
Oh, yes, please do! I made this term for anyone who feels like they align with the ideals of proshipping while wanting distance from the stereotypical assumptions people will make about both your moral character and taste in fiction.

Zoesthesia & Therianthropy
There is currently no word for "the experiences that give rise to therianthropy." The therian community has a million different terms for pieces of it - mental shifts, phantom shifts, sensory shifts, etc. I propose a new term. Hear me out:
Zoesthesia ("zo-esthesia", from the Greek "zΕion" [life/animal] and "aisthesis" [perception]): "The subjective inner non-human animal experiences that give rise to therianthropy." Therianthropy is an identity. Zoesthesia is the root of that identity, and can include all forms of shifts therians have previously described. Zoesthesia can be experienced from a young age and can occur before one's identity forms, before one knows the words for what they're experiencing. It is the "happening" behind the curtain - instinct. Consider:
It's neutral, even if it sounds like it implies a neurological bias.
It doesn't replace "therianthropy" as a term.
It sounds similar to synesthesia - the crossing of the senses in the brain, which is not seen as a disorder.
It's a spectrum, just like synesthesia - everyone's experiences are different.
Using "zoesthete" instead of "therian" is possible, though it does not imply any sort of identity, nor does it imply that one interprets these experiences as belonging to any specific non-human animal. This is primarily to describe "therianthropy underneath the hood."
It is not exclusive. We could use it to account for spiritual experiences as well - past life memories, "auras," the whole nine yards. If you think about it, all of those things also occur in your brain. Literally everything does. Your brain is hallucinating its own version of reality right now, and everything "spiritual" that you believe is just based on something your brain experienced. And everything that appears to be "external" is a recreation of it by your neurons.
What's The Point?
I suggest this because of the latest happenings globally within the therian community. A lot of young people in China, for example, think that "therian" is a fandom they can join. Younger folks globally should know that becoming more aware of the happenings in their consciousness is the point - not joining a fandom or getting likes on TikTok.
I believe that the way we do that is by turning the focus beyond identity, toward the inner experiences that lead to that identity. Time and time again, I've heard non-therians say "You can't identify as an animal, that's just not possible." There are significantly more convincing ways to talk about the experiences we have. Zoesthesia has my vote.
A more general, similarly neutral version of this that would apply to all alterhumans would be "allosthesia," from the Greek "allos" (other) and "aisthesis."
What are your thoughts?
I'd use it!
Nah.
For those who are averse to using new terminology such as this: Using current terminology, it could be said that a "therian" is someone who identifies as a non-human animal, and "therianthropy" is the subjective inner animal experience and the mechanisms that might cause one to shift or remain shifted. Many online resources do not describe therianthropy this way. On Wikipedia, therianthropy is defined as "the enduring experience of identifying as a nonhuman animal." You have to read through 9 paragraphs before reading anything about the actual experience. On Therian Guide, therianthropy isn't even defined - "therianthrope" is. At least there, the experience is in focus, rather than the identity. Meanwhile, Therian Territory defines therianthropy as "the involuntary experience of animalistic behavior/instincts/urges/traits" - which is the best I've seen so far. But they have a YouTube channel, not a website. Whether something new is adopted or we continue to use old terms, it would be sensible if each of these sites could come to some consensus on what it actually is. From the outside looking in, it appears as if nobody knows what they're talking about. To the trained eye, it smells like BS. But let's say the people who manage each of these platforms are actually able to do that and it was made crystal clear that there is an actual distinct term for the experience and a different term for the identity - and the experience is the primary focus moving forward. The term "therian" is still suffering from disinformation campaigns that are resulting in thousands of people taking to the streets to catch a glimpse of these "freaks" in countries all around the world. This may be temporary, but it is fresh in people's minds and may live there for a long time. So many therians are afraid to share themselves, even with their own friends - again. No one knows about zoesthesia, and if it can be prioritized by researchers first and foremost, I believe it could drive a renaissance for the global community. This term could be used in scientific circles - something that researchers can use to refer to and study our experiences. Provided that researchers take this up, I think it could have a very positive impact. If it does catch on, maybe the focus on inner experiences over identity will result in a positive shift in the kinds of conversations people are having about therianthropy throughout the world. Such a change would be a long-haul, though. Research takes a lot of time, money, and an incentive to even perform that research. Until that happens, the next best thing would be to create an international organization with the intent to define, translate, and localize terms such as zoesthesia and therianthropy. Without either of these things, you can expect more of the same.
More, important context, and a more inclusive definition:
Because the root "zoe" means animal or life, and in a literal sense it can mean "life perception/feeling" (similar to qualia), I think the definition can be expanded in a way that includes all alterhumans without referring to any specific community. "Allosthesia" achieves the same thing in a different way, but so far there are people who don't like either term because they "sound like" other things. Despite this, the response is generally favorable so far. With that in mind, zoesthesia can mean: "The subjective experience of traits, instincts, urges, memories, and etc. that may lead to an identity based on a species, concept, or form of consciousness not typical of one's biological species." I think it is important to separate identity from experience, especially when identity can arise from the interpretations of one's experiences. Those interpretations and beliefs are not infallible - and they can be the target of bad actors. There will always be an explanatory gap between the words we use and the raw experiences we have. I want a term that makes belief and interpretation secondary or removes it from the picture. There are countless wars over belief and identity, but experience? It's just what you experience. It is what it is. A term like this might have less potential to trigger individuals who take offense to others identifying differently from them. Therianthropy technically achieves this already, but "therian" will continue to be stomped into the ground by people who don't like that you're different. "I am a therian" sounds ego-based and "I experience zoesthesia" feels neutral. Both are valid in theory, but if it depends on who you're talking to, these statements may have wildly different results. After discussions of these terms conclude, I will make a separate post that defines them accurately without need for alteration.

The amount of people who are unaware that blackouts are not that common - even for full DID systems - especially out of a specific situation; and as a result minimalize their own very much problematic amnesia, or apologize before they complain about their own amnesia, is geniunely saddening. Regardless of how many people black out or not, if it's disrupting your daily life on a regular basis YES you have amnesia.
Posting these here from my Pinterest because I need more Eddsworld on my page.. STAT !!!!
