hi there. Kinda new at this, but i wanted to add my 2 cents: for me silver feels hot when a human feels it as cold and vice versa. Idk if this happens to others or not. Just thought i'd throw that out there.

I actually do have a silver allergy. Which, fortunately, rarely gets in the way.
Bravo for all wooden or glass jewelry!

I've known several people with silver allergies. Most of them are Mainstreamers. It seems to have something to do with the way their sweat leaches silver out of the alloy. Silver in solution is caustic and irritates the skin in very small amounts.

I guess the reason why werewolves are allegedly allergic to silver is probably because of the salt. Originally, silver rings were ground up and mixed through with a saline solution, and I've known plenty of people who were allergic to salt. Then again, you could've gotten lead poisoning back then, too... =P

As for the OP's question... I believe everyone has an "inner animal" inside of them, which is kinda like the "inner beast" concept, except different. Strictly speaking, it means that everyone has an animal most similar to their personality and characteristics inside of them, and if you bring it out, you can link it to your human psyche and become an animal-man (or animal-woman).

Honestly, though, you could know someone for years and never know he or she is a werewolf, but you have to find the right kind of person. Look for people who are open-minded, creative, intelligent, and with a belief that there's more to the world than plain old science and matter. Better yet, look for someone who actively tries to find, look for, or make weirdness or entertainment out of the mundane. You'll certainly find someone.

I'd recommend going to the Rocky Mountains and the American and Canadian West, though. Plenty of werewolves (and regular wolves) there.

Heh, one of the densest populations of Therians in the US is in the Southeast.

You have a good point, there are plenty of cats there as well as wolves.

They're so hard to spot simply because they're so normal acting.

Mainly, the technique I use is to scan for people who are genuinely awesome. I've noticed a pattern that most werewolves I found were either awesome or vicious. It's easier if people have brown hair and brown eyes, since brown fur is very common among werewolves and regular wolves. (I should know because I'm one of them. XD)

Unless you watch very closely, you'll never guess that a person is a Werewolf.

Yeah, it's the same thing for me when I try and determine what kind of Therian someone is. Sometimes, it's very obvious when you think a little, and other times, you have to think a lot.

The subtle hints - Mainstreamers usually filter those out.

Yeah, and for me at least, it reflects in my music tastes. I've always preferred alternative and indie music. XD And yeah, although I've interacted with the mainstream, I've never fully been a part of it, which is why all of my social events are outside of it. (nods)

I, sir, am a Dragon.  Take note of that important point.

Edit: Does this belong in the Therianthropy section?

I need help, after my 30th birthday my thought process completely changed.

I only sleep about 3 hours, can not eat enough meat, and at 3-5am I take my husky for these long walks through the woods and don't remember them too much when I wakeup at 7am.

I feel the need to be dominate in any male pride atmosphere. I thought I was going crazy until I found this site, and researching Therianthropy.


I just thought of a couple more things, I can now move my ears, and it tends to happen on its own when a odd noise happens. I'm 6-4, 220, but feel like I can run faster now then when I was in top shape playing basketball. I've always loved close to rare meat and have been nocturnal.

I don't feel wolf persay, more stealth and agile like.

It was rather cool.....but I'm not on Christian Therianthropy any more - I didn't unconvert, it's just that I closed down my ATT Internet account and WebTV isn't compatible with that site.

There's considerable difference between a computer browser and an Internet appliance. WebTV doesn't have any internal memory to speak of and it's MSN so competing companies' file types are generally off limit.. You can't download programs. There are quite a lot of file types you can't open including Java, Shockwave, flv.You can open mp3s, Windows media files, and real media files if they're small enough - they have to be really small.

I can't log in to the Christian Therianthropy site, so I can read parts of it but I can't post.

Well, I have real Internet at the office - but although the administration is very liveral about me using it for personal reasons, I don't want to push their good graces by doing too much forum/chatroom stuff.

Also, my website is administered via WebTV and I don't want to transplant it unless  have to, so I have to keep the WebTV and it does almost everything I want and it's cheap.......cheap is good.
