I used to think I was some kind of cat person since the idea of having cat ears, a tail, and even whiskers just felt natural. But very recently I had this interesting and very realistic dream. Even had touch sensation in it. And in the dream I did have Cat ears, a tail, and whiskers but when I touched my head I also realized I had something else too. Horns. Goat-like horns. It was weird but it also felt very right too. And I was kind of sad when I woke up realizing I didn't have them. Probably more sad than I should be. Was confusing too. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Not going to ban you. However, this is a TransSpecies community, so please don't call people, creatures, entities etc Human, Hoomin etc here unless they specifically indicate that is what they are.

Thank you :)

Personally I would follow the feelings. There's no rules that say you need to craft your identity from a single source, and if it feels right to have horns I would explore that.

I meant it in the sense of the kitteh lolspeak I saw memes of, a couple decades ago..

I hadn't known that it is now a dis-inclusive term-of-prejudice..

< sigh >

Not what I'd meant.

It's okay. It's hard to know everything. So we're letting you know now so that y'all do. It's not exactly prejudice (unless done with the intent to harm), but might make some here feel dysphoric or upset.
