theangrylionshark: trans-people-are-gods: to otherkin pals: please do not say you have ghost limb syndrome for your tails, ears, claws, wings, ect. That is a medical term for people who have had these limbs but no longer do. PSA. First off, it’s ‘phantom limb syndrome’. Second, the term applies to anyone… I’ve said like 5 times now I got the name of the syndrome confused for obvious reasons. But hey everyone- look at this piece of shit trying to defend the use of terms that don’t apply to them!

You got the name of the term confused because you’re an asshole who thinks they can police the english language. I hate to break it to you, but you’re simply wrong. Do us all a favor and keep your ignorance off the internet; it’s enough of a cesspool without you. The term *does* apply to otherkin as we experience phantom limbs. Period. No one died and made you lord of the english language, so get off it. Ignorant asshole.
