kettlekin:

Not a troll thanks though for thinking of me as one. I am diagnosed with objectum-sexuality which is a legitimate medical condition. I feel an emotional connection to kettles. I have a therapist I speak to regularly about my past and my current frame of mind.

I don’t know what I…

Elements of my condition are otherkin though. I don’t rigidly fit the exact definition of objectum-sexuality but then who rigidly fits every aspect and symptom of their mental or physical diagnosis’s? I feel an emotional connection to kettles and I would also like to be one. I identify as an orange non-electrical kettle most strongly. I don’t have a sexual desire towards them because I lack that anyway as a human and I identify as a demisexual because I feel I maybe will develop as sexual desire to something I am emotionally connected to eventually but maybe not now, maybe I won’t ever. Sexuality is very broad and diverse and feelings and emotions change all the time. Like I understand where you all come from but there’s no reason to invalidate me from being otherkin when I do want to be a kettle as I’ve said many times in my blog. 

It’s just using your sexuality to justify it is odd. It’s like if a person said “I’m attracted to women, that proves I am one!”- it’s not that she isn’t a woman, it’s just that it’s a really bizarre argument.

There are objectum-sexual humans and there very well may be non-objectum-sexual objectkin.

I’m really sorry about the problems that you’re facing- you don’t deserve it. There are a few people who have in the past admitted to pretending to be ‘kin to make us look ridiculous, and people who do this get mistaken for genuine ‘kin and are often the source of a lot of anger against us- so some ‘kin have become a bit overly careful in trying to distinguish genuine kin from non-kin trolls. It was a bit inevitable that genuine ‘kin would get dismissed as non-kin trolls in the shuffle, but, again it isn’t justified. 

Yea but it’s not like that. I’ve explained. The emotional connection TO kettles is part of my objectum sexuality and wanting to BE a kettle it part of being an otherkin. Two separate things, both parts of my identity. It’s not proving one or the other. One is part of my sexuality, one is part of my identity. 

Not a troll thanks though for thinking of me as one. I am diagnosed with objectum-sexuality which is a legitimate medical condition. I feel an emotional connection to kettles. I have a therapist I speak to regularly about my past and my current frame of mind. 

I don’t know what I have to say or do to conform to your ‘objectkin’ label. Maybe I don’t want to if that’s how you treat people with a medical diagnosis.

My diet

As I identify as an appliance-kin and an object I thought I would explain my diet. Now Kettles only use water nothing else but as I am in human form it would be silly to restrict myself to water.

So my diet consists of salmon, chicken, ham and lamb with various vegetables plus sauteed potatoes or rice. I then usually have a smoked salmon, greek-style salad in the evenings. Then I also eat various other things like cakes and chocolates or store bought sandwiches. It’s best I keep my energy up when serving the public.

Would you want to be a sentient kettle? And if so, a talking, walking one like in cartoons(but real) or a completely normal kettle aside from being able to think?

No because I wouldn’t be a proper kettle then. I want to be a proper kettle. 

I was admiring my favorite kettle today, the orange one I identify as and I realised life is great as long as I have my kettles.

Teapots

I have a special affinity to them, they are similar to kettles in aesthetic appearance but they do not boil, they are not electrical and they will keep your tea warm for you if you place a tea cosy over the top.

I have often wondered if it’s actually teapots I am much closer too but I am not, I am kettle inside and out. Teapots are close relations though to the the non-electrical kettle and they have their own beings and temperaments as presented by Mrs. Potts from Beauty and the Beast.

I think this is my demisexuality as a human in human form coming into play.

Beautiful

How I feel about Kettles

isn't "object SEXUALITY" kind of an oppressive label? some people don't experience sexual attraction to objects, but a different connection entirely. like perhaps romantic attaction, or even aesthetic/sensual attraction... like a squish, but with objects. it's a very limiting label, i think.

No it’s not I don’t think so my therapist doesn’t think so. It’s a very real label. It encompasses all parts of attraction, I feel an emotional connection to kettles. The label encompasses all parts of the condition. 

What kinds of relationships do you have with kettles? Would you ever fall in love with a kettle?

I have emotional relationships with kettles but I wouldn’t fall in love with them. I see them like sisters and brothers to me. Family.
