@auriblackcat Hi, I am obviously old and out of touch but I have no idea what you mean by "plural" in this context. Is this an American term as I have never heard it used in Europe (doesn't mean it isn't of course)? Sorry to be naïve.

@SamanthaJaneSmith Plural refers to people and beings that in some way or another, share their body with an other. Who are not alone in the body. This can manifest in a multitude and variety of different ways. The one most people are familiar with is DID (dissociative identity disorder), but there are a lot of different ways in which plurality manifests, and might not even have anything to do with a disorder or dissociation for some. Thanks for asking and there is nothibg wrong with not knowing something, I think it is much more important what we do with the knowledge we have and that we dont stop seeking out new knowledge :BlobhajTransPrideHeart: - 1
