The Dire Wolf says Howdy
Greetings,
I go by the names Paleo, Wolfenheart, or Paleo Wolfenheart. I am a dire wolf therian who enjoys contemplating her animal-self from both scientific and spiritual viewpoints. My scientific backgrounds are mostly in psychology, animal behavior, anthropology, and a smattering of others. My spirituality leans heavily towards the animistic, shamanic, and totemistic.
I am 27 years old, from Texas, and am biologically female. I do find it hard to identify as "woman", but not because I am transgendered, but because I loathe the culural restrictions that Western society chooses to cage the ideas of "man" and "woman" into.
When I have time and inspiration, I write essays. I also write some creative prose, but mostly that is private, though this community might tempt me to try my hand at creative prose to explore what I call dire-mind.
I look forward to seeing posts from you all.

That's a lot how I feel about gender. I'm uncomfortable being considered "feminine", not because I'm male but because I hate gender roles. If you walk down the street and see a dog in a fence, you aren't going to make any sort of judgment about it, based on its gender. You won't even be able to tell without checking. That's kind of how I feel gender should be; not as important as we make it out to be.
Anyway, glad to see you here!
