what gatekeeping ‘kin is: 

-telling people that they “can’t kin outside their race/disability”

what gatekeeping kin is not: 

-correcting misinformation, 

-telling people they have incorrectly labeled themself (otherkin has an actual definition that’s been around way longer than tumblr.)

-telling people that  you cannot choose you kintypes

-suggesting labels that may fit someone’s experience better than ‘otherkin’
