collective


we collectively call ourselves 'critter'. we were born in 1989, we are bodily in our 30s. mentally, we ageslide around and age regress (often influenced by headmates). we're autistic, disabled, fat, and queer. we're demiromantic, grey-asexual, aegosexual, fictosexual, objectum, and a lesbian. we're transgender in a genderfluid and genderqueer way. we're also xenogender in relation to our theriotypes, and autigender as our autism effects our gender perspective. we're a furry, a holotherian, and otherkin; we consider ourselves 'transspecies' and 'physically nonhuman'. we have multiple theriotypes, a few kintypes, and a few kithtypes.obviously, we are plural and call our system 'the critter collective'. we're a mixed origin system; we don't use exact labels but can say our headmates formed due to a combination of abuse related trauma, struggles with depersonalization, derealization, and dissociation, and autism for the most part. we consider ourselves to be a multiple blurian system and misaconscious system. we may have OSDD1-b but are uncomfortable self-diagnosing at this time.we are endogenic friendly and avoid syscourse. we are inclusive of good faith identities and labels around plurality, queerness, and alterhumanity. we are extremely kink positive and kink friendly. we are profiction / proship, and avoid fictional content that is triggering or uncomfortable without making it the problem of the creators. we are supportive of paraphiles as long as they are anti-contact when it comes to paraphilias that involve beings that cannot give meaningful or fully informed consent.
