I Am A Real Werewolf

I have a recent memory of when my father and I saw Underworld: Rise of the Lycans in the theaters. It was the first Underworld movie I actually went to see. I wasn't really aware of the first two when they first came out and, surprisingly, I kinda passed them up. Now, though, I own all three and I enjoy them. But, as for the memory, I just recall leaving the theater and my dad asking me "Why are you so interested in werewolves?" It was definitely awkward, but I side-stepped it or, more appropriately, lied. It wouldn't be until a few years later that I would tell him about me being a werewolf. That was certainly awkward at first, and I had to clear up a lot about what a werewolf really is, but now it's just normal (for us anyway).

To anyone who stumbles upon this post, I must personally apologize for the shameful and ridiculously extensive collection of comments below. I had considered deleting them, but instead I want them to remain as a reminder of what Experience Project is not. This is a place for sharing thoughts and opinions between people with common interests and experiences. Many people, apparently, do not understand that even though it should be obvious. However, we should not let this deter us. Years later, those who wish to share experiences and positive opinions remain, and those who try to cause problems always fade away.

What experience project should be about, and this goes for all forums on the internet, is sharing opinions and having debates and arguments at some point; rather than have everyone stay nice and cozy in their own little bubble where no one can challenge your opinion without getting jumped on. That's what communication should be about. Yes this site is devoted to sharing experiences, but if everyone had there own little nice opinionated safe space, that would be so boring.

I'd just like to add, considering how stupendously long that other comment thread got, that (and I'm not going to argue this one but just state what I have learnt) science can prove and disprove lots and lots of things. From my studying, reading quite a few textbooks, scientific journals, reports etc. being a Were and everything that it involves is scientifically possible. If you want evidence for that then I suggest reading a lot of broad knowledge based A-Level and University text books. These should give you the main ideas in the shortest space of time. If you want to look deeper into that then sure do. Even at a basic level many of these explore concepts that could make Were's possible. I saw you reference gravity before, so here's a good example summed up - gravity=acceleration and forces don't exist. If you want to argue those out then do so with Einstein and a whole bunch if quantum physicists.

You clearly did not pay attention to my post. Nowhere did I say that everyone should agree. I said "This is a place for sharing thoughts and opinions between people with common interests and experiences." And yes, debates and arguments should be allowed, but only if they actually accomplish something or are at least trying to accomplish something. You believe you are right and we are wrong, so you are not trying to progress or change. Neither debates nor arguments are about rigid positions screaming at each other immovably. That is called "bickering like children". If you want to be open to our perspectives instead of talking down to us and saying we are unquestionably wrong, I welcome that. Otherwise, leave this experience which you, by your own words, do not belong to and allow us to share personal experiences and opinions without being attacked. Keep in mind, by the way, you are making this argument on a post that is not opinionated. It is a personal story. You brought the conflict.

I usually just point to my own Debunking Paradox. You cannot disprove the existence of something because your own argument makes evidence impossible to find. I've heard a lot of people say "Werewolves don't exist because the full moon can't cause someone to physically transform". Well, if werewolves don't exist, then that statement is completely irrelevant. You have no way of proving that the full moon has anything to do with werewolves if the prerequisite of your argument is that they do not exist.
