They come in all shapes, color (and according to them, genders - from the standard male/female gradient to third, fourth and fifth genders). And I'm really sorry for them, but they seriously need help - it can't be psychologically healthy to feel like you're closer to yourself when stuffed inside a pink plush fox suit than in clothing - and not because it's silly, but because they associate with the animal that they dress as.

All I can say is that the otherkin culture is definitely not a fad, and that these people really do need help. Whether it be disillusionment, traumatisms or some untold levels of narcissism, they need help.
