What is the purpose of this group?
This community account is a place for us to share our essays, poetry, and other creative writing about being alterhuman. In November 2024, The Sol System's Alterhuman Writing Challenge inspired the creation of this community account, but it will continue to be a place for posting our writings all around the year. Please read this post to learn more about this group's purpose, who we welcome here, our rules, posting etiquette, and extra instructions for how to participate if you are new to Dreamwidth.
What is alterhumanity?
The word "alterhuman" was coined by Lio (it/its) of the Crossroads System in 2014. Short for Alternative Humanity Personal Identity, this is an umbrella term for "A category of personal identity which encompasses identification that is alternative to the common societal idea of humanity." It is an opt-in term that can include plural systems, fictionfolk, therianthropes, otherkin, vampires, furries, and more, at each of their own personal discretion. The purpose of the word is to give each of these something to unite under without erasing what makes each one distinct. The group that popularized the word the most was Alt+H, an organization for alterhuman advocacy that was active from 2016 to 2023.
