Call for responses to the documentary

[frameacloud]

Trigger warnings: None.

In April, a documentary about otherkin (therianthropes, actually) aired on the Logo TV channel. It was also on some countries’ TLC channels, and the full episode was officially streamed on the Internet. It was an episode of the WHAT!? series, titled “I think I’m an animal,” produced by Zig Zag, and Shiro was in it.

I’d like to collect responses to the documentary from people who actually watched the show. Readers, would you please help me with this? Please send me links to blog posts about it that were written by as many viewers as possible. I want to hear lots of opinions and commentary on it, from inside and outside the otherkin and therianthrope communities.

The Werelist had a thread about it. The responses to viewing it start about page 6.

Watch this insane documentary on people who think they’re animals
Otherkin documentary airs on Logo. Otherkins want you to know they are NOT furries.

My post on tumblr; presumably there are other useful posts among the 52 notes on Sareth's beginning post in that thread.

There's a poll here (http://merticus.com/vampirenews/2013/04/26/examining-a-documentary-for-the-therian-otherkin-communities/) about it which is very informative and has 160 results. It's pretty generalistic, but good for getting an overview on the general opinion of the show.

There were various comments to my coverage of the topic at Flayrah (//www.flayrah.com/4870/video-what-i-think-im-animal-documentary).

That link appears to be broken.

Hmm. I guess I didn't copy it fully - try this one (https://www.flayrah.com/4870/video-what-i-think-im-animal-documentary-released).

They start off with my quote from a previous thread, I feel special :p
