      No, It’s dating a third person who is also dating an Etherian princess, and the princess used hypnosis to brainwash It into being a slave for the third person, which seemingly entails coercive sex.

          Oh wow, you don’t know about fictionkin?

          https://otherkin.fandom.com/wiki/Fictionkin

          You can google fictionkin and you’ll see a lot of sources from a lot of different people on the phenomenon.

          At the end of the day, reality is a social construct, and some people have identities that break these social rules. Given a choice between upholding a hierarchy that has been thoroughly taken over by billionaires, or respecting people’s identities, I respect identities. Even if they’re rapists who abused My ex-wife. That’s how strongly I believe in My principles.

            I dated someone who was that sort of detached from reality once, and after trying to humour them I realised that they were just a stupid narcisit … so unless this Etherian Princess you know has demonstrable powers, is in charge of a large region of land, and is actually from Etheria, no I wouldn’t respect their identity.

            But even if I did, I wouldn’t confuse how they identified with a work of fiction that is unrelated to their existence.

              Again, I despise that monster with every fiber of My being. And yet there is no fiber of My being that thinks bigotry is an acceptable way to retaliate. So I’m not going to use ableist slurs on the princess, nor will I deny the princess’s identity.

                  …yes?

                  And in anticipation of what I’m worried you’re going to say next, I’ll say that gender dysphoria is a mental disorder too, it doesn’t make trans people invalid. Personality disorders don’t make otherkin invalid.
