Folks, we’re entering a new frontier in this era of identity politics – identifying as animals*. You heard me right. There’s children out there who think they’re more at home with whiskers and tails than with the rest of us human beings. This trend has me scratching my head.

Call me old-fashioned, but last I checked, we’re not a bunch of barnyard animals; we’re people. Isn’t it the human condition that makes us special? We’re the only species that questions, learns, and grows beyond our primitive instincts. And yet, here we are, with some people trying to escape it all by identifying as Fido or Fluffy.

This animal charade is nothing more than an absurd attempt to dodge the realities of being human. It seems to me, we’re not monkeys or manatees. We’re men and women, blessed with intellect, consciousness, and the ability to rise above the natural world. Let’s not let our desire for individuality turn us into a zoo!
