Otherkin

Otherkin er et begrep noen grupper bruker om seg selv, som innebærer at de ser på seg selv som helt eller delvis ikke-menneskelige. De mener de har en ikke-menneskelig sjel.^[1] Noen Otherkin identifiserer seg selv som en helt annen art enn menneske, som oftest et dyr. Otherkin mener at de gjennom reinkarnasjon ikke har menneskelig sjel eller avstamning.^[2] Forskere ser på denne identiteten som religiøs fordi det er ofte støttet av et rammeverk av metafysisk tro.^[3]
