So, what did you get?This stupid test / reducing privilege to a number instead of something vastly more complicated makes everyone dumber for having participated in it.
Because being idiots, none of us were perfectly aware that this was a silly Internet quiz. I'm also aware that I'm not actually Chewbacca despite getting him in the Which Star Wars Character Are You? quiz.This stupid test / reducing privilege to a number instead of something vastly more complicated makes everyone dumber for having participated in it.

Isn't that some subclassification of Furries?What is up with this kin stuff?
If I understand it correctly, kins are like the FURRIES of furries. Like... they wear their costume on the inside.Isn't that some subclassification of Furries?
This. It's not just fae. It's also therians (basically weres). They believe they have some sort of spiritual (and metaphysical) connection to animals, spirits, or other abstracts like angels and demons. I know a few. Most of them are pretty normal but with odd (almost pagan/druidic) beliefs. Some of them are completely out of their fucking minds and are dangerous to be around. Be careful which you are alone with.Otherkin is way different from furry. Furries identify more with anthropomorphic animals, but otherkin actually believe they are non-human. Usually fey or some shit like that.
Oh, being pagan counts as one of those? I gotta pick one and retake the test.This. It's not just fae. It's also therians (basically weres).

No, I said "almost". It ties into a lot of animalism that shamans, druids, and other religious figures had. It's not a religion in and of itself.Oh, being pagan counts as one of those? I gotta pick one and retake the test.

That's what I meant by "wearing their costume on the inside." They can't take it off because they think they're whatever-hybrids.Otherkin is way different from furry.

Probably. I mean, to be fair, if someone tells me they're an otherkin, I start to want to oppress them.And these guys like, feel oppressed and stuff? Like me saying I'm human is, in their mind, kinda shitty?
