cause I mean, even so, the way I “identify as” feline-adjacent is very different from how I relate to my gender like I may be mentally ill but I’m obviously not trying to “live as” a cat in the sense that I would expect my material reality to align with how Actual cats live 😭

I mean if you’re mentally ill than so am I bc sometimes I feel very cat adjacent with my attitude and mannerisms. I don’t think I’m a cat just a very cat coded person

it’s less that I think relating strongly to a particular non-human species necessarily indicates mental illness, and more that my diagnosed mental illnesses probably influence my personal sense of not being fully human

Me but with dogs honestly. I feel more strongly like a dog than I do the gender I’ve undertaken surgeries to express.
