Otherkin

So, team, do we believe that real non-ironic otherkin http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otherkin actually exist, rather than something that (a) people pretend to be on the interwebs to (i) troll (ii) send up the imagined real otherkin (who don't really exist) and (b) something that people take the piss of based on their imagining that otherkin really exist?

There is this Twitter account that someone occasionally tweets into my timeline which purports to be real tweets from otherkin etc.

e.g. this gem 'trans privilege is having sex reassignment surgery be a real thing, while nowhere offers 'species reassignment surgery' for otherkin'

I call fake.
