What is a therian? “Therian” is short for “therianthrope”. It means a person who identifies integrally as a nonhuman being, such as a wolf, polar bear, or even earthworm.
therian VS furry
Furries, therians and otherkin, oh my! What do all those ...
In general, furries are individuals who say they are furries. Therians are individuals who believe they are not completely human and instead identify as a species of non-human animal.
theriotypes
A theriotype, originally known as a phenotype (first created in alt. horror. werewolves on November 28, 1993), is the species of animal(s), extant or extinct, that a therian identifies with.
other therian stuff
Can a furry be a therian?
It just means that they believe that they are that animal, or that they are an animal trapped in a human body, or even they were an animal in the past life. Not all Therians are furries, and not all furries are therians.
can you become a therian?
You cannot become a therian, you must be born that way. While therians are not tressing that Therianthropy is the only kind of personal animal philosophy/spirituality, they are, however, stressing the differences between Therianthropy and these other 'ways of life' or spiritual beliefs."
that sum it up?
