Hello. I’ve asked this to multiple rabdom people already because I’m curious. I am not otherkin. I want to understand it better so I don’t judge you. What is you reason(if there is one) for being otherkin and why do you identify with your particular kin(s)?

My reason is because I don’t have a choice, and I’d be otherkin whether I wanted to be or not. And I don’t identify with them, I identify as them. Otherkinity isn’t just resonating with something; it’s identifying as something nonhuman on a nonphysical, involuntary, and profound level.

I am my kintypes because they’re me, and I’m them. I could go more in depth into my SBNR beliefs about it, but that’s pretty much it.
