Okay, I've looked into the possibility of me being Ethereal AND me being demonkin, and the best way to describe me is a Demonic Ethereal Lioness. Sounds totally rediculas, huh? Well actually, this really gets my goat- you don't have to be a "demon" to be demonkin!!
I'm what most people would brand a demon, because of the way I look in my form, and I can shift from a white lioness to this demonic form. But I'm ethereal. Maybe you don't understand, but I'm just ranting, ask questions later
I've mentioned to varius people that I'm a Demonic Ethereal Lioness/Ethereal Lioness/Demonkin/Poly-Shifter and they've gone "OMG, you're a demon, I always knew you were evil!" or words in the same concept. I think demonkin get a very bad name- many christians believe (and correct me if I'm wrong, but coming from a christian background I know a fair bit) that demons are tied in with Satan, hell, the evil in this world etc... so how can a "good" person be a demon?
It really makes me mad when people think this, because I always respond with the question (for example):
"you're a dragon, aren't some of them bad?"
and they answer:
"only some."
This is exactly the same with demonkin!!! Maybe 25% of demonkin are bad people, but doesn't that go for all types of therians and otherkins? Just because you're a bad person doesn't mean you're a demon, or ethereal for that matter. And just because you're a demon doesn't mean that you're a bad person.
Look at me- have I done any trademark, cliche demon things like haunt people- no
curse people- no
kill people- no
d**n people to an eternity in hell- NO!
*deep breaths*
sorry for the mega rant there guys, I'm just so pissed off at people automatically branding me as evil because of the possibility of me being demonkin. To be honest I only describe myself as demonic because that's what I'm "veiwed" as.
Hope people get it.
