      I mean, it could be a kid who doesn't have a lot of perspective/is very focused on themselves or something.

      It definitely is a favorite reactionary bait though. I'm going to be very interested to see the responses you get.

      I guess if someone TRULY wanted to be an animal they could make the argument that it’s a worse experience because there is less they can do with presentation and biologically

        I guess, but its not like there's any medical literature to support them "transitioning" to an animal and if it actually helps them or not. I think its just lumped in with depersonalization and body dysmorphia
