      …yes?

      And in anticipation of what I’m worried you’re going to say next, I’ll say that gender dysphoria is a mental disorder too, it doesn’t make trans people invalid. Personality disorders don’t make otherkin invalid.

            I didn’t say that their identity meant they had a disability, that was you.

            I don’t consider mental health problems to be a disability, and I don’t consider trans people to have mental health problems because of their identity.

              You used an ableist slur on your friend. You called them a n*rcissist. You implied that being fictionkin is a result of narcissism.

              Personality disorders can influence the manner in which kintypes present themselves, as I well know, for I am an otherkin with NPD. I disagree with you that being fictionkin is a result of narcissism, but I agree that in this particular case, the princess’s NPD has influenced the kind of kintype.

                That isn’t what I said or tried to imply, and now I understand why you managed to take entirely the wrong messages from She-Ra

                    Why do you think that narcisicist is a slur, and not a descriptor?

                    I was describing a person who I knew, as an example of why I was not going to respect the self-description of people who have a poor relationship with reality.

                    I also said they were stupid. Which there were. Is that also a slur?
