Rude. I know otherkin sounds a little weird at first but it's not once you try to understand it. I've been friends with otherkin before, they're really nice and definitely not a joke. It's just a spiritual belief and I honestly wish more people would respect it.

it's hard for me to get my head around but yeah, just like anyone else they should be respected.
I still think having like 15 kintypes is a little excessive and i think this person probably just identifies strongly with a lot of different characters and doesn't really know what to do with those emotions but yeah.
I could be wrong ya know?
 
Awesome, but if you're still unsure good luck figuring out your gender.

Thank you. It's gonna be hard to come out to my mother if I never call myself female again. She's such a closed minded conservative. I mean I remember bringing up the Leelah incident. Saying how her parents did the correct thing by burying her in a tux. Saying that me and other liberals go against God. I'm like what does politics have to do with sexually and gender?? She just started spewing crap like you'll understand when your older..Its just like..stop being so closed minded!
(Also she calles me a liberal I don't even know what that is!) (I know what a conservative is as its my mothers party she votes for..)

Why can't parents just love an accpet there children??!
(Sorry for ranting..I needed to get that off my chest..)

No need to apologise, it's best just to let these sort of things out. Sadly I'm no expert when it comes to politics so sadly I don't fully know what a liberal is, however if it means you're not as close minded as your mother I can only see it as a good thing. I'm sorry your mum isn't very understanding, I hope that eventually your mum opens up, or that you at least have some other people you're close to that you can talk to about this with.

If you do want to come out, remember coming out is important but always difficult and isn't something you should rush into. Personally, I still haven't been able to come out to my family. I'm openly non-binary, except to my family. (My being non-binary is kind like me being genderfluid in the way I present myself but I don't feel like I have a gender.) I still present how I want, and refer to myself with my preferred pronouns, they/them/their, but I still don't call myself non-binary around them or use my preferred name. (I always worry about worse case scenarios.) All I can suggest is take your time. Coming out is important, but your well being is more so. Just don't rush it, come out when you're definitely ready. If possible, I also suggest look for support in your local community before you come out, they can help give handy tips on the best way to go about it. Most places have a local transgender group of some kind.

Let me sum up the reason people don't like otherkin

"blah blah it disrespects people who are ACTUALLY confused about their gender blah blah stop seeking attention"
 
uuuh my first time posting in this thread but i think im genderfluid or bigender im not really sure! im still kinda confused but like i kinda feel like im both boy and girl i guess??

Ah thank you. Your support means alot. yeah I'm not gonna rush it. I am for certain a bi though. my mother says nothing about it. (Yet she continues to make homophobic and transphobic comments..) I just need time to think. Nice quiet alone time.

I'm not the greatest with labels but don't worry too much about it darling. Discovering yourself is such a long process so you should take it easy and go at it at your own pace. There are a lot of others here that can provide you with the knowledge way better than I can. Good luck dear!

oh thank you so much that means a lot!!! o ya i should include im pan too ive came out to my sis and mom and my moms like in denile or doesnt think i am so :0
 
Hey I see a lot of pan in this thread :) thought I was bi for years and then realized I was hella pan. Super nice to know TBT has some lgbtq+ support here
 
im not otherkin and dont care what otherkin do but theyre not related to the LGBT community at all

my best friends stepmother bought me books about being LGBT and knowing my rights, that was sweet of her i guess but im not really sure what i should do with them since the lgbt book is mostly about sexuality (which im pretty confident in) + the rights book is just random ****
 
Nonbinary
It's pretty cool how gender is becoming a big issue in the world. I'm glad things are changing.
 
sooo the bell tree is just totally breaking for me.
Like source code keeps popping up and i cant load anything.
This is making egg finding extremely difficult.
